HELP: Bringing S4 to a gig

**looneygeorge** · 02-15-2011, 10:03 PM

Hey,

so in 2 weeks I'll be bringing my S4 to a club gig for the first time. One thing I'm wondering about is if I should use RCA cables to the club mixer or if I should go about setting it up differently? I'll be the only DJ of the night so I have plenty of space.

Thanks guys.

use the RCA outputs to a LINE IN on the mixer, you should be fine.

Nervous? Don't worry you can't connect the S4 anyways. The S4 connects you.

Take a pair of RCA cables with you anyway, but you might want to consider balanced 1/4" TRS cables to be on the safe side.
If there's only a short distance between your S4 and the mixer and there aren't many other cables around that could cause interference, you should be fine with RCA though.

Ok, I got some info about the club. somehow they've had to send in their mixer for repairs so I need to go straight to the Amps. I no absolutely nothing about amps.

i'm kinda freaking out now

depending on the amp, you will need

1/4" TRS to XLR female or male cables depending on the amp input.

or just 1/4" TRS cables.

bring a small mixer, because s4 wnt be powerfull enought to conect direclty there, you will need a mixer to boost the volume up.

It depends on the club of course, but most places will have their own in-house "master" mixer which everything is plugged in to. You are likely to need to plug in to that rather than the amp itself. In any case, it would be a good idea to grab a few different cables and bring them all with you so you can connect your S4 no matter what. RCA, TRS and TRS to XLR should be enough.
