This did not happen overnight. Bought all these separately and one after the other until I figured out what I needed to improvise a silent rehearsal home studio. The first one I bought and it was ages ago was the Behringer Xenyx 1002fx mixer. I've used it a lot during live gigs, disco, karaoke, rehearsals, etc. Then, bought earphone extension leads from Poundland. Because I needed it during recording and/or rehearsals. The headsets or earphones, it's always my obsession so time and again during birthdays or xmas, I often buy one for myself or for my son or my wife would buy me one.
The only mixing piece of gadget on my planned silent rehearsal studio was something that will make all headset individualised or independent in terms of volume. And that's when I found, online, this Behringer micro amp HA400. A four-channel mixer for headphones with individual volume control which you connect to an earphone/headphones out of your mixer. And that solves all my problem in terms of doing a silent rehearsal home studio like JAMHUB.
Here are some of the video reviews I did about the Behringer Xenyx 1002 FX mixer and Behringer micro amp mixer HA400.
Not really the same as with this is you only get one mix whilst Jam hub allows each individual musician to have their own mix. Also, the aux mix will be mono not stereo
ReplyDeleteTotally agree with you that it's not the same. It's far from JamHub. Especially in terms of price and functionality. However, this is an improvised version where all of the band members can have individual control to the volume of their headphones but not the mix obviously because it's all been mixed from the mixer. The other best solution is to buy an expensive wifi mixer so you can mix every instruments and channel individually from your ipad or tablet and got individual monitor output which is a lot better than jamhub.
DeleteI found this, perhaps it is an alternative. Super cheap. https://mixdownmag.com.au/reviews/mixers/reviewed-tc-helicon-blender-portable-mixer/
