Correct Setup for DJs on the T8s

Greetings Bose Community! 

I just purchased the the T8s mixer but i'm a little confused on the proper setup for my gear. 

RCA to L R 1/4" inputs from mixer (main mix)

1/8" to L R 1/4" inputs from laptop for Spotify (filler/backup)

XLR to XLR from Shure Wireless Mic

XLR to XLR from Shure Wired Mic

Also want to have a record out available for videographers or to record my mixes while i'm using the main XLRs

Using (2) F1s or (2) L1M2B2 

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Congratulations!

Please make sure you are running the latest firmware. See:

T8S Firmware Updates





but i'm a little confused on the proper setup for my gear. 

RCA to L R 1/4" inputs from mixer (main mix)

Please tell us more about this connection. Do you have another mixer with RCA outputs? Please give us a link to the owner's manual.



1/8" to L R 1/4" inputs from laptop for Spotify (filler/backup)

Consider using the USB to PC connection (find this under Prefs on the Rotary Selector).  

Please see: USB B from PC

XLR to XLR from Shure Wireless Mic

XLR to XLR from Shure Wired Mic

For both of these, please see: Gain Staging

Also want to have a record out available for videographers or to record my mixes while i'm using the main XLRs

Use the Aux outputs. See: Aux Outputs



Using (2) F1s or (2) L1M2B2 

Any advice is greatly appreciated! 

For the F1 Model 812 systems see;

T8S to F1 Model 812 Tip Ring Sleeve Connection
T8S to F1 Model 812 XLR Connection

For the L1 systems see:

T8S to L1 Model II

That should get you started. Please tell us about the device with the RCA connections mentioned above.

Thanks,

ST
