Indeed, the Palmer PMBL Dual Channel Line Merger is a more correct tool then the Pan 05 for the this application.

At this point, the path of least resistance for me is to go out of the right output. But the Palmer looks like the right bit of kit, as they say.

For that price, I would rather get a small mixer.

Hi guys,

I‘m aware about the difference between mic and line level. I tried the Palmer Pan 05 and can say it works perfectly and only costs around € 40.-

Your Nord must be special with XLR connectors?
Actually the other one suggested is 192 euro, and also has XLR connectors so you would need a DI box or similar, so keep adding.
For that kind of money I would get a small mixer.

Oh yes, you’re correct - so the Radial is the only passive box suitable without any kind of additional adapters, if one does not want to use a mixer with additional power connector necessary

Hmm - have not made nice experience with the quality of some of the cheap Stagg stuff ... but this one may work as well

Radial is as good as it gets. I've been blessed to check out the sound rigs for some of the biggest arena tours on the planet, and they ALL use Radial. Top-notch quality, rock-solid dependability, thoughtfully designed and reasonably priced. I've always found that money spent on sub-standard gear is wasted money....

Bless, Pablo

Yep. Every stage box I own, from the simple PDI to the Key Largo, is made by Radial. It's as solid as it gets.
