🔊 How to Connect an Auracast Transmitter to a Church Mixing Board?

Church Assistive Listening System Setup Guide

If you're installing a church assistive listening system, this guide explains how to properly connect an Auracast transmitter to your mixing console.

Step 1 – Use a Line-Level Output from Your Mixer

Connect your Auracast transmitter using one of the following outputs:

• Monitor Out

• Stereo Out (L/R)

• Matrix Out

• Aux Out

These provide clean line-level audio, which is ideal for stable installation.

Recommended Cable Connection

Use:

→ Dual 6.35mm (¼") TS/TRS to 3.5mm TRS cable
→ Connect the 6.35mm plugs to your mixer’s L/R outputs
→ Connect the 3.5mm end to the transmitter’s Line-In

This is the standard way to integrate a digital mixer into an Auracast assistive listening setup.

Why Not Use the Headphone (PHONES) Jack?

Although it may work temporarily, the PHONES jack:

• Outputs amplified headphone-level audio

• Is volume dependent

• Can introduce distortion

• Is not recommended for permanent installation

For reliable performance, always use a dedicated line-level output.
