Are you using wireless mics?

If so, does your wireless mic receiver have output level options for each mic? For example, mic 1 can be set to line and mic 2 can be set for mic level output?

one would be wireless, the 2nd i think would be wired possibly.

were you suggesting plugging the mic 2 into mic 1 receiver?

If your wireless receiver has a line level output option, I was going to suggest connecting the wireless receiver to the AUX input of your TTM 57SL :)

Wow I feel dumb. I never thought of that and both my mics are wireless. It would really help with my setup issues. The only downside is no eq for the mic but I could also just hook it up to one of the channels.

The other option is the Rane MLM 42s. It has 4 mic/line inputs and can output at a mic level so you can run it into the 57s mic input.

damn is there a cheaper option? I still dont know what i am going to do. I have a 5 channel mixer in my 2nd dj setup, i am assuming i can just aux in from that mixer and have the 2 lines for the mics coming in from that mixer?

A basic mic pre-amp can be used between the mic output of your wireless receiver and a line input of your mixer :)

Just buy the cheapest 6 channel (2 xlr) Behringer Mini-mixer for $40 or so.

Check out this link for a cheap, easy to build, pre-amp. I use it for a secondary microphone tied to the aux input of the mixer. Works well for simple announcements at weddings and stuff and it's small enough to fit in your mixer case. I wouldn't use it for a Celine Dion concert or anything.

Ressurecting from the dead

Is there any other way to run two mics into the main mic input on the TTM57? - One is wireless 1/4 to 1/4 and the other is wired xlr to 1/4

I realize i could purchase a mackie mixer or similar but i dont really want to spend the money, if it comes down to it ill just run one mic

You can add another mic to the main mic input, but you will only be able to use one at a time without a secondary mixer. You can't use two microphones on the same input without some serious gain issues and distortion. You might be able to fashion a switch that can toggle between the two mics. The other option is to use the Aux Input on the TTM-57 as a second mic input. See my thread above for a simple pre-amp that will bring the mic up to line level. These are also available from Radio Shack or Guitar Center for a small fee. ;)

sounds good, thanks for the input

You can try a Y split 2x XLR to 1 mono. This I down and dirty. You can only EQ over all. No fine tune per mic. You can build / buy the Y for under $20.

I use a mixing board. Connect both mics to through the board and run the output into the 57's input channel

ya i thought about just getting a simple 4 or 8 ch. mackie mixer and running it all to that

I can't remember what brand I have, but it's a cheaper dual unit like this. (it's not in front of me at the moment)

I can to choose between 2 separate outs or a single one where they are mixed.
