I cannot figure out how to get my MixPad’s Main Mix or PAFL channel audio into my headsets connected to the tablet. I’ve Googled my brains out, tried all the resulting suggestions without success. Is this even an option with MixPad? I need to PAFL channels while roaming around the FOH. Please please please, someone give me specific step by step instructions and I’ll be forever grateful. I am remote controlling an SQ6 from my MixPad on a Microsoft Windows 11 Surface Pro tablet. THANKS!

Hi there,

Mixpad can’t receive any audio - it can only control the mixer.  
You’ll need a wireless in-ear pack connected to a PAFL output on the mixer if you’d like to do this.

Thanks MarkF! I’ll get a 2.4 ghz transmitter/receiver to get the PAFL output from the SQ6. God Bless You.

It’s like expecting audio from the TV remote control… 🤣

Actually, my Roku remote has a headphone jack.
