I'm a Worship electric guitarist. What I have now is this: Guitar to Pedalboard (Analog setup, ending with an AMT SS-11b / Behringer DI) to Church's mixing desk. For monitoring, the desk sends a Line out to the passive wedge (1/4inch from the wall point to 1/4inch on the passive wedge) I place in front of me.
First of all, I am totally clueless when it comes to sounds, signals and settings for audio. I read up on Balanced and Unbalance output, Line outs, Passive and Active, dBs and everything else in between. I can only get more confounded each time I read up on something new and related.
What I need to do is to replace the passive wedge with an in-ear system in order to avoid the too much electric guitar coming from my wedge that is undesired, although it has been like this for a long time.
I looked at the new Behringer Powerplay P1, which is not sufficient and also unavailable here. The Rolls PM351 appears to do all that I want - that is, to be able to hear the overall mix from the desk and control my guitar volume from my pedalboard (or "More of Me"). The shop where they sell the Rolls PM351 tells me that the "Line Input" at the rear of the Rolls PM351 is passive but I don't know what that means.
My sound man in the church says the soundboard and wiring setup will harm the Rolls PM351. Meaning, if I take a chance to use the Rolls PM351, I will end up with a burnt unit on the first day of use. It is $150.00 not including a in-ear set yet.
Now I am here to hear from SOFT Champions seeking advice. Thank you in advance.
