Is it possible to connect 2 x NSB16.8 stage boxes on a Studio Live 32 without the AVB Switcher?.

[@onsettechstudio]

You should be able to "Daisychain" the stageboxes by plugging your ethernet cable into port A from the mixer, and then using another cable to go from port B of the first stagebox to port A of the second one. Unfortunately you cannot use regular ethernet switches with AVB as they don't support some of the protocals. I hope this helps!

My presonus 16.0.4 doesn't have ethernet port what I can do in that case?

i am using 24R, the rack mount type as my in ear monitor setup. all is good and all works except that i have used input splitters and I want to send a copy of my inputs to the FoH guys. Is there a way that i send it to the front of the house guys using NSB16? I dont want to use the SNAKE cables.

[@onsettechstudio]

If you currently have it set up to work on stage with our ear monitors, all you need to do is run a standard Cat6 cable from the stagebox to the FoH mixer. There is no other way to get the audio back there from the stagebox.

Where do you hook up your Foh at don’t see a main output

[@onsettechstudio]

Do you mean for output? On your Studiolive mixer you should be able to route your main left and right outputs to the channel one and two outputs on the stagebox. Just select "digital patching", switch to AVB sends, then scroll through the channels until you come to two options named "Main L" and "Main R" select Main R and then select the output one the stage box you want to send it to, do the same with Main L. We usually use output 1 + 2 for Main outputs and then use the rest of the outputs for other things, like stage monitor mixes, etc. More about this in a future video!

@@onsettechstudio I believe by Default its channels 7 and 8 for the mains, or 15/16 (7/8 on 2nd box)
