Hi everybody, this is Chris from QSC here

0:10

today to talk to you about how to use your K.2 speakers as live stage monitors

0:15

We've got our full band setup and ready to go

0:17

But we have a couple of factory preset options we're gonna look at

0:19

so you make sure to get the right preset choice for your particular setup. Let's check it out

0:25

In this configuration, we’re going to use our K8.2 as our front vocal monitor

0:29

we're going to select our Stage Monitor 1 preset in here, which is optimized for use with a vocal microphone

0:35

We do that by using our enter button to select "Preset". Scroll down to Stage Monitor 1.

0:40

Select it, and then we can back out with the exit button

0:43

Now our K8.2 is optimized for use with vocals

0:48

For our drums and our keyboard monitors, we're going to use the Stage Monitor 2 preset

0:53

which is optimized for instruments that need a little more low end extension on their monitor mix

0:58

So now that we have the correct stage monitor preset selected for each member of the band

1:02

our on-stage system is stable and less prone to feedback

1:07

and we didn't have to use any external EQ or mixer EQ to get his kind of sound

1:11

So now that they're all up and running, we can let em roll!
