[QUOTE="brian maddox, post: 26096, member: 158"] Re: using "wye or Y" cables and associated questions must +1 this comment... every time the subject of combining mics comes up and people float out the resistor network summing box schematics i think of the hundreds [yes hundreds] of times i have summed dynamic mics with a simple y cable with completely acceptable results. in fact, at the company i used to work for all the xlr y cables in the workbox were 2F-1M, since summing mics was needed more often than splitting signals. we could always slap a M-M turnaround on one leg and get a splitter. of course i also sometimes found the y cable with turnarounds on all 3 legs to get a 1F-2M splitter. ah, stage hands.... :) [/QUOTE]
