patch bay

[EustaceM]

Is it possible to set up 2 or more patch bays sharing the same channel outputs/inputs?
For example wall panel mic 10 corresponds with mic 10 on more than 1 patch bays


I wish to set up a (smaller scale) patch bay in the house for FOH mixing when needed, main patch bay in control booth (where amps and some sound equipment mainly stay) and perhaps another (smaller scale) patch bay for stage left mainly for connection of XLR cables for clear-com system. That way the position for where the show to be called can be stage left or booth with the base station always with the stage manager.

Are there patch bays with both inputs and outputs XLRmale connectors and XLR female connectors?

Are there patch bays for other uses like for video equipment; cameras, video monitors and so on?

This may sound hrash but it really is intended to help you obtain effective and reliable systems now and for the long run. Bluntly, a "sound engineer" would not be asking somne of these questions, so that suggests that while you may be well versed in operating a sound system, you apparently have limited experience and expertise in designing and installing such systems. You seem to have a number of projects going and could likely benefit from having a qualified party who can help you with not only with techncial details but also with master planning and developing an overall approach that will serve you well in the long term.
