sorry guys, guess my description was too brief. here it goes:
i'm doing sound for a NGO event which have no budget for sound rental, so i'm actually borrowing mixers from friends. need some advise to see what i'm doing is the right things.
the venue that we are using is a MPH with a decent sound system, just that there is drama and band performance, so the mixer is not able to handle so many channels. so what i am doing is that i'm borrowing 2 mixer, term it A & B.
so i'm connect A to channel 1&2 of the MPH mixer and B to 3&4 of the MPH mixer. so problem is, my mixer A will be used solely for band, and mixer B for my all other mics needed for drama/MC etc.
i need to send out aux from A & B so that my band can hear the singer and vice versa via the monitors. so how do i go about doing it? thanks for all help!

thanks for all help!Since you have 2 mixers, and essentially, you want to get more channels, hence you have two mixers..
You can use one mixer as a submixer.
Basically, mixer A (band) & mixer B (Drama/emcee/vox)
Depending how many channels you have on mixer A, leave 2 free channels on mixer A so that you can route the master output (L and R) of mixer B to the two free channels on mixer A. Like this u have a stereo submix of your vocals in that 2 channels.. and from Mixer A, you can send your vocal submix and band mix together on ur various aux sends.
