Re: Mixing ResourcesNot sure about the manual for the StudioLive, but quite a lot of manuals for entry level desks include a reasonable amount of generic information on things like hooking up the gear and getting basic signal flow and gain staging set. Try looking at A&H's manuals for things like the GL series boards to see the kind of thing I'm talking about - it might be too basic for you but could be a good starter.The venerable Yamaha Sound Reinforcement Handbook is always worth it if you want more in depth stuff that'll be a good couple or three steps above that in terms of how in-depth it goes, you'll definitely need to have had some hands on time as others are suggesting to get the most out of it though.Unfortunately I can't think of anything off the top of my head that sits comfortably in between these two suggestions.HTH,David
