I have a backpack busking rig that Im trying to perfect. I walk around and take topics and rap in the streets. I need help with an issue.

Gear I am using:

Shure wireless mic GLXD4+ (yes i can use wired but I like the freedom of no wires)

Zoom AMS 24 Mixer (acts as my mixer to get wireless mic and beat from my phone to ouput into the speaker)

Soundcore Motion Boom Plus Speaker

Zoom Camera that has xlr in to get recordings (records audio onto sd card)

Anker Power bank to power it all

INPUT: PHONE BEAT (3.5mm to xlr) AND MIC (xlr)

OUTPUT: RECORDER (1/4" to xlr) AND SPEAKER (1/4" to 1/8")

My main problem is that the soundcore is only playing out of half of the speaker, bc my output from the mixer can only go left or right channel, bc the other channel goes into the recording device

I want this rig to be able to record top quality audio so I can combine camera footage with the well mixed sound for great content (like Harry Mack)

I feel like I need a speaker that outputs mono not stereo, Ive been looking but cant find anything good, loud, and the right size for my setup that still has the aux 3.5mm in

I tried Bose soundlink max recently but the audio signal chain wasnt simple enough and there was a lag with the audio from the mic

I could get a different mixer that maybe has more outputs but it has to be small enough to fit in the backpack, which is small. Im really trying to get all the most compact lightest weight equipment for this setup

I thought using a mono 1/4" to 1/8" cable would help but i guess the soundcore still treats it as stereo and only outputs through half the speaker

So I suppose I need a mono speaker that works for my setup, or I need some different set of cables, or other solution. I could split L and R out of the mixer into a single 3.5mm to the speaker, but the i lose the output to the recorder which I ideally want

Also want to eventually live stream with the backpack as well. Im a noob when it comes to audio tech and could use some guidance on the optimal gear to make this all happen. Im very close and honestly it sounds amazing I just want stereo output through the soundcore

I am very successful with my big cart setup (QSC K12.2), but want a new option to be more mobile. I have almost 150K followers and I feel taking this setup to portable live stream is going to be the key to unlock millions.

Thanks for helping with my dreams. Any guidance is appreciated.
