Aviom A16II In Ear Personal Monitor System - In-Depth Review

www.ccisolution... Ron Simonson of CCI Solutions explains why personal mixers are so important and demonstrates the key features of the Aviom A-16II in ear personal monitor system. Tha Aviom A-16II Personal mixer allows individual performers to create custom monitor mixes tailored to their individual needs. Designed for use in live performance or in the studio, the A-16II Personal Mixer gives each performer control over channel volume, grouping, pan, stereo spread, and master volume and tone. Every Personal Mixer in a system can create a unique monitor mix for a performer. Users can save and recall up to sixteen custom mixes as presets in their Personal Mixer.

The most effective method I have found is using the insert points on the individual 16 channels that you want to have control of in your Aviom mix. This method is only post gain and eq, thus creating a larger separation between the Aviom system and the front of house mix. The only issue is now you can't insert any dynamics processors into the channels you are sending to the Aviom. Also to clear it up further, the Aviom system is comprised of two separate rack units joined by a Cat 5 cable.

My church uses these. They are simply awesome. They allow us to use a sound proof drum cage to mic the drums.

Would have been great to hear a sample a”Mix” being created as you explained the functionality of the system

[@rclark381]

Hope that lengthy explanation cleared it up. I had to figure all that out the hard way so hopefully now you won't have to.

One unit is placed close to the mixer to receive the outputs from the board while the other unit sits on stage and transmits the information to each of the personal mixers via cat5. Ultimately I'd say the system is OK however an investment in wireless in ear monitors and a well trained engineer can alleviate the monitor issues in most circumstances. This system is really popular in churches where it may be hard to find qualified engineers.

The "two universe" monitor he's talking about is receiving the input channels 1 thru 16 for the backline and input channels 1 thru 32 (or whatever your upper limit is) for the frontline. But then again this'll very much depend on your setup. In my church for example, inputs 1 thru 16 will only get me up to Guitar1 and no vocals / preacher whatsoever because the vocal inputs start at channel 20 and upwards. Hence in my case the two universe system won't work well subjectively. Hope that helps.

[@rclark381]

Here's how the Aviom system works: the 16 inputs to the system can be sent from the board in one of three ways. One way is via the direct outputs from the mixer ( if the mixer has them). This method is not highly desirable because it is usually post fader, eq and gain which sort of defeats the purpose to begin with. Another way of setting it up is using the Aux sends from the board, also not the best solution seeing as how most boards are limited with aux sends.

[@rio197]

Erratum: on the Aviom the first 16 channels can be selected from your mixing console, meaning it's not fixed to only the first 16 channels like I said.

[@Riddlewrappedenigma]

As a novice to monitoring systems, forgive the simplicity of my question. It sounds as if in your "two universe" systems, two of these systems are on stage where two groups agree on which settings work for them as a group. This is opposed to a scenario where each musician has his own monitoring system with their individual settings? Am I understanding this correctly?

[@JaZnStorm]

My church uses an analog console and I just bought the aviom personal mixing system. I have a 16 channel trs patch cable, will it work if it’s connected from the insert on the console to the in of the input module? Or does it have to use an insert cable?

[@cptncanela]

Can I connect it to a wireless system?

[@lachoman5]

+Josias Canela yep! connect your system to the out of headphones on AVIOM.
