like Nicofiery said you can get a pair of adapters XLR Female To 1/4-inch Male Connector and a Y splitter Y Cable - 1/4 in. M to 2 1/4 in. F
thing is - any time i've tried running multiple devices into a single amp using the Y cable one side was always VERY dominant over the other. using it to squeeze two elements into one output is actually the opposite of what it's intended to do. it might be fine for lead and backup vocals so long as there isn't much variance in what's supposed to be heard.
though it's more likely to end up sounding like a cheap homemade chorus / reverb effect and if you need distinct interplay between the voices i think you're in trouble with this plan.
it never hurts to give it a try though. at the same time it's usually not 'that' expensive to rent a PA for a weekend (the initial deposit is the most painful $ part). and you're entire band will sound way better. |
Thanks mr dave!
It's for lead vocals and backup vocals, so it might be fine. We only need one MAIN mic for our singer, the rest is purely backups. But at the same time like you said it might end up sounding ****. We might give it a go and see how it sounds... we're not too fussed really as we're not professional musicians really. But all that info helps a lot!
Thanks!
