Need help setting up a PA sytem

Using this Amplifier

Pertinant info looks to beon p. 4 of the doc... Hoping someone here can hlep read between the lines...

I want to be sure I can input a stereo signal to this amp from a stereo piano mic, and a mono or stereo signal mic from a lecturer, and shoot the combined output out to a left and right channel stereo speakers in the lecture hall... This is just a small room in a hotel not a grand ballroom, etc...

Anyone?

dont cross post.

looks like that is a mixer/amp all in one unit. you should just have to plug the xlr cables from the mic into the xlr ports on the front and then the speakers to the back. should be pretty simple. it looks like its mono, so you will have 2 channels for a stereo mic, just set the left/right knob to which ever side that mic is on. the mono mic should come through both speakers equally.

Frankly, for a lecture, which comes from a single source, stereo doesn't make any sense. The stereo mike is easily channeled into a single mono signal which your amp directly supports.

A lecture should heard equally by all any where in the room.

Cross posting does annoy mods!

Sorry for the cross post but in all seriousness its not a like it fits in 1 category... People hang out in different forums...

At any rate... The stereo is for the yamaha piano... But the amp looks incapable of taking in a stereo signal, so I'm just going to put astand mike over the piano to pick up the sound and broadcast in mono...

Thanks for comments. Appreciated.

That seems to be a good approach. The piano and lecture are probably not at the same time - but one documents the other? In whuich case, monaural integration is the best approach.

As for the cross post - no problem - but this is really an audio question.
