Q: 1. Hosa Technology GPP290 Monaural Male 1/4" Phone to Stereo Female 1/4" Phone Adapter Can the above adapter be used to insert headphones into the adapter re the Zedi 10 FX's "aux out" quarter inch jack? Would this, notwithstanding the need for a converter, to convert line level signal to headphones level signal, work? If headphones are inserted into the aux out jack directly, the result is audio in the left ear only.

A: First, let's make clear that headphone signal is line level and headphone outputs typically use a stereo connector. The aux output on the Allen & Heath ZEDi-10FX is sending a mono line level output signal via a 1/4" TS (mono) jack, so that is why you only hear audio through the left side of your headphones when you connect the stereo plug to the mono output. The Hosa Technology GPP290 Monaural Male 1/4" Phone to Stereo Female 1/4" Phone Adapter (B&H # HOAPMSPF) will convert the stereo plug on your headphones to mono and that will allow you to hear mono audio through both sides of you headphones (same audio through both sides) when you connect the stereo headphones to the mixer's mono aux output. If you need to connect two sets of stereo headphones to the ZEDi-10FX, a better option would be to use a stereo splitter connected to the mixer's headphone output. The Hosa Technology 1/4" Male to Two 1/4" Female Y-Cable (B&H # HOYCSPM2SPF) will allow you to connect two sets of stereo headphones without sacrificing tone, volume or stereo separation. If you need to accommodate more than two sets of headphones, the best option is to use a separate headphone amplifier connected to the mixer's headphone jack. The Polsen HMA-41 4-Channel Stereo Headphone Amplifier (B&H # POHMA41) or the Mackie HM-4 4-Way Headphones Amplifier (B&H # MAHM4) are good options for this purpose. The headphone amplifier will give each user their own headphone jack as well as an individual volume control to set the volume level for their headphones fas desired.
