=== Two {{PS1}}s for one Vocal ===

You can

* Run your ~~mic~~ into the first ~~L1™~~ PS1 Powerstand (let's say - Channel 1).

* Run your microphone into the first {{l1 nl}} PS1 Powerstand (let's say - Channel 1).

* In Channel 1 ~~insert~~ an XLR cable from the Channel 1 Line Out

* In the Channel 1 section run an XLR cable from the Channel 1 Line Out

* At the other end of the cable connect a [[Pad]]. The people-at-Bose usually recommend a -20 dBu pad. Some owners have reported success with a -10 dBu pad.

** {{Why Use a -20 dB Pad}}

* Connect the [[Pad]] to the second {{PS1}} Channel 1 or 2.

* On the first {{PS1}}, set the input trim appropriately.

* Choose the best preset for your microphone.

* On the second {{PS1}}, the input trim should be similar to what you set on the first one.

* On the second {{PS1}}, the input trim should be similar to what you set on the first one, but check the trim o/l light for a solid green light (occasional red flickers are okay).

* On the second {{PS1}}, use the same preset as you used for the first one.

Arrows indicate the direction the signal is flowing.

* Position the two {{L1}}s '''at least 20 feet apart''' to avoid the possibility of odd phase effects in the audience. More detail: [[Phase Cancellation]]

* Position the two {{L1}}s '''at least 20 feet apart''' if possible to avoid the possibility of odd phase effects in the audience. More detail: [[Phase Cancellation]]

=== Two {{PS1}}s for Mono Tracks (or one side of stereo pair) ===

In this example, we are using Channel 2 so that you leave Channel 1 available for another input like a vocal.

You can

* Run your input into the first L1™ PS1 Powerstand (let's say - Channel 2).

* In Channel 2 section run an XLR cable from the Channel 2 Line Out

* At the other end of the cable connect a [[Pad]]. The people-at-Bose usually recommend a -20 dBu pad. Some owners have reported success with a -10 dBu pad.

** {{Why Use a -20 dB Pad}}

* Connect the [[Pad]] to the second {{PS1}} Channel 2.

* On the first {{PS1}}, set the input trim appropriately.

* Choose the best preset for your microphone.

* On the second {{PS1}}, the input trim should be similar to what you set on the first one, but check the trim o/l light for a solid green light (occasional red flickers are okay).

* On the second {{PS1}}, use the same preset as you used for the first one.

* For prerecored music or tracks or keyboards you want {{B1}}s as close together as possible, and the L1™s close together -or- at least 20 feet apart.

=== XLR Female to ¼ Inch Tip-Sleeve Male ===

Here is another method - use a cable with a XLR Female to ¼ Inch Tip-Sleeve Male from a Powerstand Line OUT to Channels 1, 2, 3 or 4 on a second Powerstand.
