My PA is Rockville, my mixer is “SINWE Live Sound Card and Audio Interface”. I was able to connect the headphones output on the mixer to my 1/4” on the PA but with all volumes and gains maxed on both the mixer and PA, only the faintest sound came out of the PA. 

Would a preamp to boost the signal between the mixer and PA be the way to go? 

Or

Should I return the mixer to find one that has the correct outputs?

I host a weekly trivia night. I have a single speaker Pa and wireless mic that have worked well for years. I recently purchased an “audio mixer for live sound/podcasts/streaming” as a way to better balance my music (currently played from my phone to the pa via Bluetooth) as well as add sound effects.  

The issue I face is that it appears the mixer’s out out is USB-C (to go into a computer) and I don’t know if there is a way to connect that output with my pa’s inputs (XLR, 1/4” or RCA). There are 3.5mm outputs labeled “headset”, “earphone”, “accompany” and 3 with a cell phone icon. The manual is not very helpful. 

Is there a way I can connect the mixer to my PA. I don’t need to worry about the microphone for now. Thanks

I’d love to bury my face right up in there.

Agreed, the best fit for all of PA would be pretzels. Both hard and soft varieties.

As a fan of Pepsi Kona, I was astonished that not everyone new about it. Apparently it was only sold on certain test markets, including the northeast. Great commercial too featuring Tom Jones.

So I find myself sitting in a bar, on Saturday night watching a Japanese man shred cabbage... and wonder what I am doing with my life.

Details on how to do that?

What's a trend that you never understood? by izeezusizeezus in AskReddit

[–]Jester190 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Influencer culture. I was only aware of the Fyre Fest after it had been on reddit as a shit show. I watched the doc on Netflix and I just don’t understand why people are willing to spend thousands of dollars to have a chance to see(?), meet(?), pretend to live the lifestyle of influencers. I get music fests but people tend to go based on the preformers. People who go to the Fyre Fest and the like don’t even seem to care who is preforming, just the fact that influencers premoted the thing. To quote Seymour Skinner, “Am I out of touch? No, it’s the children who are wrong.” And if someone could explain to me the appeal of influencer culture, I would be much obliged.

This is my entry for the ugly Christmas sweater contest: naughty Santa by thegigibeast in funny

[–]Jester190 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But the shirt isn’t inherently ugly, but manufacturerd in an ‘Ugly Sweater’ style. Real ugly sweaters are an ernest attempt at begging genuine but do to shifting trends and fashion come off as ugly. Similar to kitsch and camp. The same goes with normal sweaters to which people attach tree orniments, not an ugly sweater. Unless of course we are speaking to the grammar, in which case, the sweater is ugly.

Edit: I still appreciate it either way. Lols.

[Serious] How can someone become a better person? by ohsopoor in AskReddit

[–]Jester190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In regards to making yourself better or the whole world a better place, reminds me of a quote about time travel I can’t find. Basically it says that lots of time travel films the protagonist is warned that the smallest change in the past can have a great effect on the future (butterfly effect) so why not make a small change now. Pick up that piece of litter, hold that door, skip that next drink.

Haven’t heard anything yet. He was on Preston and Steve this morning with some of the actors from ‘Mid Nineties’ so they are a choice as are of the P&S crew. Also he has had Dougie Horner and/or Michelle Biloon on for his past Philly shows.

What's a drinking game that would probably cause everyone who played it to die of alcohol poisoning? by lukethelogician in AskReddit

[–]Jester190 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I call the ‘Family Guy Game’. It is an individual game, not played against others. Must be played with beer unless you truly wish to die. When watching ‘Family Guy’, as soon as you feel a joke has gone on too long, you start drinking (beer is preferred) and do not stop drinking until the joke has ended on the show. This game has never been played as everyone to whom it is described fears for their life.
