<p>Jeremy, I don't see anything inherent in the CM-30 that would /
should prove difficult for a sound person to accommodate.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>A lot depends on the mixer that this would be connected into. If
the mixer has 1/4" aux sends (most, but not all, mixer , a 1/4"
Male-Male line-level cable can connect the channel 1 input on the
monitor speaker to the aux send being used for the monitor. If
the mixer has XLR (the larger 3-prong plugs that you see on mics)
aux sends or outputs (the Behringer XR-18s that have become
commonplace in the bay area, for example), a standard XLR
Male-Female cable can provide the connection. It would then be up
to the sound person to send the caller signal to that aux send,
just as they send instrument signals to the stage monitors for the
band monitors.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>If you can find out what kind of mixer the sound guy has, I could
probably provide more detail.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>When I think of caller monitors, something like a Galaxy HotSpot
(<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://www.galaxyaudio.com/products/PA6BT"><https://www.galaxyaudio.com/products/PA6BT></a>) or Mackie
SRM150 (<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://mackie.com/products/srm150"><http://mackie.com/products/srm150></a>) is what I've
seen in the wild, and I have a Galaxy HotSpot as part of my sound
kit. These guys have the advantage that they can be easily
mounted on a mic stand, can be aimed precisely, as well as
controls that you don't have to bend down to adjust. In fact, the
Galaxy that I have included a special mic stand that could hold
both the monitor and a mic, allowing the monitor to be positioned
in the null of the mic.</p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">After years of calling
at most venues without a caller's monitor, and finding life
much easier at the occasional venues that did provide a
caller's monitor, I finally sprung for my own monitor.
Recalling a recommendation some time ago either on this list
or one of the others, I bought a Roland Cube Monitor (CM-30).
But having read through the manual and looked over the unit
itself, I realized I don't know what to do with it to put it
to use in this context. I consulted with the sound person for
my next upcoming gig, but that sound person (whom I do
appreciate for many reasons) has limited sound skills and
also wasn't sure.</p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Those of you who know
more than me on this subject: Is there straightforward
guidance that would help me use this unit as a caller's
monitor? Or, did I buy the wrong unit for this function
despite having good intentions?</p>
