fenderc Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I've had my Firehawk 1500 about a week and am loving it so far! I do play in a church band from time to time and in the past have just ran direct from a floorboard like the HD500X or they have a couple of isolation cabinets for people who want to use their own amps. Everyone uses in-ears so there is minimal stage noise. Since it isn't optimal to mic the 1500 in the iso cab, I was thinking of running direct from the xlr outs and then plugging a dummy jack into the headphone out to disable the internal speakers. Thoughts? I don't have a PA at home to really test this out. I am assuming that the signal coming from the xlr outs is controlled by the master volume, so simply turning the volume down will reduce the signal coming from the xlr outs. I haven't been able to find another way to mute the internal speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sceickhoff Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 There is no need to disable the internal speakers. Simply connect the Firehawk 1500 XLR main out to the mixer and turn down the Master Volume to zero. The mixer will still receive the signal and the speakers will be silent. The Master Volume does not affect the XLR main out signal. The FBV 3 volume pedal or any other volume pedal will affect the XLR main out signal.
