Objective, use iPad to record videos of my buddies and our acoustic instruments with reasonably high quality audio. I also want to input a mix board blend to do this.
I see an iRig that allows one to input a single XLR mic into an iPad. It looks to just be a cable adapter and a small preamp.
Could I not do the same thing with my little Behringer mix board with cable adapters? I do not know enough about electronics to be sure that this would not blow up my wife's iPad. Not good.
If yes, would I use the outputs of the headphone, control room, or main outputs? Obviously I should start with the lowest volume level possible.
With this setup I could send a mix of two microphones to the iPad. And I have a behringer board that accepts 4 XLR microphones, so I guess if the smaller board is ok, that this would be also. I have so much crap that I never use, that I am reluctant to even buy a $30 iRig if I could just use existing equipment. Many thanks, my knowledge in this area is obviously limited.
