=== Connections that may work === | |||
Some powered mixers have line-level outputs. You can connect line-level outputs to ToneMatch Mixers and line-level inputs on Bose Portable PA powered loudspeakers (L1, F1, S1 Pro). | |||
Read the owners manual carefully to make sure you have correctly identified line-level outputs before connecting these to any Bose Portable PA equipment. | |||
=== Caution - Running a Powered Mixer without Speakers === | |||
Some powered mixers should not be operated without passive loudspeakers connected to the powered speaker outputs. You may damage the mixer. Read the owners manual carefully to make sure the mixer may be operated this way. | |||
== Battery Powered Mixers == | |||
Occasionally, we've seen the term '''powered mixer''' to mean one that operates on AC power. This distinction sets it apart from relatively rare mixers that run on battery power. This is not a common usage as most mixers require AC power. There has been [https://www.bosepro.community/g/portable/topic/other-battery-powered-mixers] some discussion about these because the S1 Pro system can operate without AC power. So it can be useful to have a mixer that can also run without AC power. | Occasionally, we've seen the term '''powered mixer''' to mean one that operates on AC power.
