Just a quick question on the Yamaha EXM512 powered mixer. I am using one now for vocals only in a little classic rock band. I run two 15's for FOH and two 12's as stage monitors. My question is...can I run one of the "personal" monitors using this powered mixer? I'd like to run a small 2x5" powered monitor for the lead vocalist, possibly on his mic stand. I think Behringer and Mackie make the small monitors. I'm hoping this will post a link to my Yamaha I use. Thanks. http://usa.yamaha.com/products/live_...sc/?mode=model

I found this out the hard way at gig setup once.  The user manual was not exceptionally clear about that little mix up, either.
Still, perhaps Yamaha has added that functionality in newer versions of the product.

They run two monitors off the power for their 2 singers, I bring one powered mackie for me and run it off the monitor out on the front of the unit. Works fine. I'm using a Trs out to XLR.
Edit... From the manual read below it notes that the output is unbalanced. TRS still seems to work fine though...

I connected it to the channel #1 on the powered mixer and ran it into the back of the monitor. The mic plugged into the input on front of the monitor. Didn't have to use the monitor out on the PM. The lead singer was able to control his volume on the personal monitor by using the "level" without affecting the volume on the stage monitors. We're going to use it for a gig Saturday night. Thanks for the help.

You just run the mic cable into it and
Run the thru output to a channel on the mixer. You figured that out already.
