I've been fooling with a Beringer 802, shure Sm 58 with an interface on my Madison. I've gotten reports from great to not so good. I've tried a few different settings and quite frankly I'm tiring and am gonna go back to my silver eagle d104. It's hooked up to my final version madiison. I've been bothering locales to help me dial it in. I tried using the only set of headphones I own to listen and dial it in myself but the only set I own are 40 year old telex. These phones IMO just aren't capable of hearing the difference in the audio tones as I turn the high, mid and low knobs. Would purchasing a $30 pair of modern headphones make a difference in being able to hear the changes myself or, should I save the $30? It's my first foray into any type of mixer on a IMO decent CB (for it's time). This is a picture of the last settings on the Beringer. If I'm gonna have to keep adjusting the knobs to suite everyones receive I'm going back to the d104. Iyo might I eventually get this to sound good and crazy glue it? The mic gain on my Madison is set to about 8 o'clock. That the lowest I can get it to where the Sm 58 picks up audio. If these anyone who uses this setup and can either add a photo or tell me where they've got their settings would be appreciated. I might be able to get a good starting point. The mic gain on the Beringer 802 is about 11 o'clock and the Madison's audio as is stock (limiter intact). Driving a triple stage phantom and this is setup is for ssb as I use a sonar 2340 on AM.
. Forgot to mention im only using the left side and they pan is all the way left. Ive read the 802's manual but most if lt is greek too.me. I do know what the 802's mic gain, mid, high and low do but the other three im not sure what the main mix and leval knobs do. The far let knob seems to raise the audio output as the higher in turn the modulation meter swings more as does the phantoms output and I see that on my mfj 828 but not sure if this changes lthe tone. Also not sure what the level knob does. And the red tipped FX not sure if it accurately adds reverb of another item is needed but not interested in any echoeffects. Unless it actually works without having to add something else and will help get everything sounding better. I was told not to let the green led's (two of them) Reach the yellow light as this indicates clipping clipping.. I found getting there first green LED to slightly flicker as I modulate to sound best As far as that I'm lost.. Thanks a bunch. 73![IMG_20160515_223418982.jpg IMG_20160515_223418982.jpg](https://www.worldwidedx.com/data/attachments/15/15585-9ae82df897ad6837e86f340460348a6c.jpg)
