Flexible personal monitoring system
The Xvive PX Portable 3‑Channel Mixer System combines a powerful headphone amplifier, a compact three‑channel mixer and audio transmission via CAT5 cable into a flexible personal monitoring solution. With the Xvive PX system, instrumentalists and vocalists can freely choose whether to feed either three mono signals or a stereo signal plus one additional mono signal to their headphones, using the compact PX-A headphone amp to blend their individual monitor mix. The PX‑A can be powered either by two AAA batteries or via a 9V DC power supply connected to the PX‑B (both power options are sold separately).
Sound and power via CAT5
The Xvive PX‑B 3‑Channel Snake is the audio distributor in this set: It connects to the mixing console and routes three audio channels as well as 9V power (Power over Ethernet) to a CAT5 socket. The Xvive PX‑A headphone mixer features individual level controls for the master output and each channel. Audio signals can be panned using DIP switches located in the battery compartment, with left, right, or left + right (centre) settings available. The built‑in headphone amplifier delivers a maximum output of 2 × 150mW at 16 ohms. A sturdy clip allows musicians to simply attach the PX‑A 3‑Channel Mixer to a waistband or belt.
A complete personal monitoring solution
Consisting of the PX‑A 3‑Channel Mixer, the PX‑B 3‑Channel Snake, an EC25 CAT5 cable and three XLR‑to‑jack adapters, the Xvive PX system stands out as a flexible, wired personal monitoring solution for instrumentalists and vocalists on stage. Customers benefit from the attractive bundle price here, especially as the included CAT5 cable is extra long (7.62m) and robustly shielded. However, both the PX‑A and PX‑B are also available separately if required. The optional Xvive PX‑H 5‑Channel Hub further expands the modular PX system by distributing three audio channels and 9V power (PoE) from a single PX‑B 3‑Channel Snake to up to five PX‑A mixers via individual CAT5 cables. This makes the Xvive PX system well suited for complete band setups during rehearsals or live recording sessions in the studio.
About Xvive
Xvive Audio officially entered the market in 2012 with its compact U2 wireless guitar system. Since then, the company has also been involved in the development of wireless microphone technology. Its catalogue also includes effects pedals, such as the Signature Series, which were developed in partnership with guitarist Thomas Blug. The products are designed by an American team, based in Pasadena, California, which is composed of musicians and engineers and draws on decades of professional experience. Its lead designer, Howard Davies, was previously employed at Electro Harmonix and Pigtronix, among others. Xvive Audio's goal is to create products that deliver exceptional sound and build quality, while remaining affordable for any musician.
For individual monitor mixes
Singers often need to readjust the balance between their voice and the other musicians in their monitor mix during a performance. A typical setup in this case would be vocals on the first input, guitars and keyboard mix on the second, and finally bass and drums on the third. For drummers, hearing the drums, bass, guitar, and vocals loud and clear is crucial in order to navigate the song structure, subtly interact with other band members and of course remain in lockstep with the bassist at all times. In this case, a typical setup might be bass on the first input, drums on the second input, and finally guitar and vocals on the third input.
