Great video - just purchased a Bose T8S as a musician who gigs at private events. Also own a Yamaha mixer which as you say is a great little mixer, great quality sound but somewhat limited. I bought it mainly to interface with a set of Bose F1 speakers I've also just purchased second-hand, so can't wait to hget it all together and see the up lift in quality of my output
I use the Tonematch1 for my F1 812 with Sub... and I have been afraid to try it since. I turned it up 10% and it shook Pots and pans in the kitchen and everything on the walls, including the doors throughout the house! As long as you run everything to the sub and THEN run the sub into the top. LETHALITY!
Wow, i have two lapel mics which I dumped in the garage because they would not stop giving feedback. So appreciate the wisdom that I can fix this with the right mixer!
Great Video I DJ and do Karaoke and I had the Mackies then moved to the Yamaha Line went to the T1 and now use the T8 for it's great built in features from Noise gate, compressor, Ex and PARA eQ
Revelation noted after spending hours the parametric eq can be zoned in using a keyboard or if you have perfect pitch your ear...once you realize what frequency or we could say key note that is feeding back then bang bring it up on parametric view and back it off. I love the AB back and forth idea also..but with a 3 piece band we have have 7 inputs in operation can be a challenge.
Great video. Can you provide a quick video or picture of how your setup looks connected to the Bose mixer? I have yet to find a good pic of how the mixer is connected to speakers and the DJ controller.
Hopefully I understand you correctly. You can try controlling the main mixer volume on the T8S or in your audio settings in Mac. Make sure you choose the input or output to the T8S
Hi Dj Mojoe Just want to ask if its better to use the Utility tonematch preset than a Mic vocal present for a Microphone or lapel connections (sample:the brand and name of microphone)
Hi, I think at the end of the day, it just matters how it sounds coming out of your speakers and your preference. Depending on the voice of the person and also considering that there are no feedback issues. For me, I like the use the SM58 tonematch setting for my SM58 microphone
OUTPUTS Another difference between the T4S and the T8S are the outputs. The T4S has 1/4” TS/TRS outputs and the T8S has 1/4” TS/TRS and XLR outputs. They also have digital outputs to use for some setups.
Great video! I was aware of the T1, but not the T4S or T8S! Do you or DJ Jas have an opinion on how these compare to a tablet-controlled digital mixer such as the Behringer X Air series, Soundcraft Ui series, Mackie DL series, or QSC Touchmix series?
I have the XAIR 12 Mixer, and it has its own application. I use it often for separate dinner sound systems. The Tonematch offer a more tangible experience than the tablet, so it's generally more efficient, quicker and easier to get going, especially when incorporating it with DJ gear or using it for a Ceremony setup.
Great video, I appreciate the information. Question regarding the bodypack...which cable do you use to connect the mixer to the body pack? Thanks!!! Keep up the good work.
Aw man, sorry to hear that. I don’t think there’s a quick fix for that unless you know which channel/mic is causing it. There may be other factors that created the conditions where it feed-backed. What did you try out to solve it? For me, I would isolate each channel, start with my volume low, raise the volume of it to the proper level and if I hear feedback, I would use the Parametric EQ to sweep the frequency range with low DB setting and hear if the feedback goes away.
@@djmojoeofficial i did that qhen I got home next day and Bose S1 pro monitor wasn't able to get volume up well so now I am plugging monitor in aux outputs . Thanks video was so helpful
Good info! Still use an analog but no feedback suppression and parametric eq. Like that it's an all in one unit. May be worth the purchase and condense the dj booth.
@@DJJASProductions yes but mean nothing wrong with it had only seen in another video on facebook that it was with a DJ friend namely DJ Kanoya, in San Diego. And it worked with the qsc touchmix 8, which he was also very impressed with. I'm just wondering why the choice for bose t8smixer is because it is not brand bound. And I appreciate his explanation very much and don't break it
You u can do all of this in the Touch Mix, but the Tonematch is much more compact, more user-friendly, and better suited for mobile DJs compared to the Touch Mix, better used for live sound.
@@djmojoeofficial Showing the wiring from the controller to the T8 and speakers,, would be great. Please help... I have a pioneer serato controller, Bose F1 812 speakers and the T8
It would be beneficial to demonstrate the connections and a sound check (a picture goes a long way) very informative-I’m always looking for innovative improvements on sound quality- Thank you
I used it an event 2 weeks ago and works great! The client hired a singer from The Voice and worked well. There are different reverb settings you can choose from, too. And on the mixer board, you can always use the FX mute if the person is speaking, instead of singing. Then you can always unmute the FX mute when the person starts singing. Very useful IMO

Does the mixer still over heat?
I have 3 T1s bc those are the only ones that DO NOT overheat... I hear.
Wow, i have two lapel mics which I dumped in the garage because they would not stop giving feedback. So appreciate the wisdom that I can fix this with the right mixer!
Yea! You can eliminate them. I also heard great things about the QSC Touchmix. Digital mixers allows you more control of the sound
Great Video I DJ and do Karaoke and I had the Mackies then moved to the Yamaha Line went to the T1 and now use the T8 for it's great built in features from Noise gate, compressor, Ex and PARA eQ
Also use the Tuner to dial in to the Key that is feeding back and then go to the Parametic to dial it down
Revelation noted after spending hours the parametric eq can be zoned in using a keyboard or if you have perfect pitch your ear...once you realize what frequency or we could say key note that is feeding back then bang bring it up on parametric view and back it off. I love the AB back and forth idea also..but with a 3 piece band we have have 7 inputs in operation can be a challenge.
Are either of you still using these? I have the CQ12T now, but still own my Bose.
I still use the T4S for the ceremony. I have the T8S as backup
Great video. Can you provide a quick video or picture of how your setup looks connected to the Bose mixer? I have yet to find a good pic of how the mixer is connected to speakers and the DJ controller.
Great content. Thanks to you both.
What's a good setting for the noise gate. I know it's not a one size fits all but I need a good starting point.
You're welcome! I need to check my settings. I forgot
hhi, thank you for all technical tips, ? how can we control the usb type b playback volume in t8s, I am using mac pro, that can not control
the volume
Hopefully I understand you correctly. You can try controlling the main mixer volume on the T8S or in your audio settings in Mac. Make sure you choose the input or output to the T8S

One more ? Is there anyway to control the volume of the 4 Auxiliary outputs on T8s on the fly?
Yup! Just have to switch the main knob to the AUX, select the AUX, and adjust the middle knob to control the volume
OUTPUTS
Another difference between the T4S and the T8S are the outputs. The T4S has 1/4” TS/TRS outputs and the T8S has 1/4” TS/TRS and XLR outputs. They also have digital outputs to use for some setups.
I use a TouchMix 16 and a Yamaha tf rack mount and haven't looked back.
Awesome, I heard great things about the TouchMix. What about the TouchMix do you like?
Great video! I was aware of the T1, but not the T4S or T8S! Do you or DJ Jas have an opinion on how these compare to a tablet-controlled digital mixer such as the Behringer X Air series, Soundcraft Ui series, Mackie DL series, or QSC Touchmix series?

The Tonematch offer a more tangible experience than the tablet, so it's generally more efficient, quicker and easier to get going, especially when incorporating it with DJ gear or using it for a Ceremony setup.
Can you provide a picture of how you have your DJ controller to the T4/8s?
Sure, I would have to take it next time. Basically I run a small XLR female cable from my controller to 1/4" male to channels 1 and 2 on the mixer
Great video, I appreciate the information. Question regarding the bodypack...which cable do you use to connect the mixer to the body pack? Thanks!!! Keep up the good work.
Thank you!
Here’s the link:

Most pro mixers have high pass filters on the mic inputs....usually 80 or 100 Hz....not necessary frequencies and cleans up the vocals
ya, it's a good start, but when you can go so much further as shown on the Tonematch mixers, your sound is so much clearer.
How do I know where feedback is coming from during a performance…last nites gig was horrific feedbacking from my too loud 3 piece Irish band
Aw man, sorry to hear that. I don’t think there’s a quick fix for that unless you know which channel/mic is causing it. There may be other factors that created the conditions where it feed-backed. What did you try out to solve it?
For me, I would isolate each channel, start with my volume low, raise the volume of it to the proper level and if I hear feedback, I would use the Parametric EQ to sweep the frequency range with low DB setting and hear if the feedback goes away.
@@djmojoeofficial i did that qhen I got home next day and Bose S1 pro monitor wasn't able to get volume up well so now I am plugging monitor in aux outputs . Thanks video was so helpful
Awesome, yes I use my Bose S1 as my booth monitor and get the sound from one of the Aux outs. Works great!
@@djmojoeofficial well I was using one of the two other outputs ( one is mono other isn't)
I believe the T8s has more auxiliary outputs which we need with band
It’s great! You can use it for wireless in-ear monitors or even to record your set to an external recordee
Good info! Still use an analog but no feedback suppression and parametric eq. Like that it's an all in one unit. May be worth the purchase and condense the dj booth.
Yup! Downside it’s not rack mountable, but in my case, that’s ok with me. I like it on my table
hy why do you than not use Bose speakers like the l1 or F1 setup's but go with the rcf evox 8
everyone likes what they like when it comes to speakers. The great thing is the Tonematch mixers can be used with any speaker.
@@DJJASProductions yes but mean nothing wrong with it had only seen in another video on facebook that it was with a DJ friend namely DJ Kanoya, in San Diego.
And it worked with the qsc touchmix 8, which he was also very impressed with.
I'm just wondering why the choice for bose t8smixer is because it is not brand bound.
And I appreciate his explanation very much and don't break it
Great vid Mojoe. Would be interested to know how this Bose mixer compares to the QSC Touch mix.
Thank you! Maybe that can be another video. I can’t tell you off the top of my head unfortunately. I’ll look into it
You u can do all of this in the Touch Mix, but the Tonematch is much more compact, more user-friendly, and better suited for mobile DJs compared to the Touch Mix, better used for live sound.
How do you used the reverb
You turn the dial to the reverb, select which channel you want to apply the reverb, then adjust the settings knobs
Can those aux outputs be use as headphones jacks?
Yes they can nice when ya can’t hear your vocals in a band
Yup, and you can control what channel audio goes out to those aux outputs
@@djmojoeofficial I'll have to figure that one out in addition do they have volume control on the fly or just at powered monitors?
Thank you for your information about Bose toneMatch T8s, feedback. it was helpful.
You're welcome!
Or do a video of your DJ controller hook up to the tone match along with your speakers?
There's a ToneMatch setting for "DJ" on the Bose T8S that I use. You just choose it as one of the presets.
@@djmojoeofficial Showing the wiring from the controller to the T8 and speakers,, would be great. Please help... I have a pioneer serato controller, Bose F1 812 speakers and the T8
It would be beneficial to demonstrate the connections and a sound check (a picture goes a long way) very informative-I’m always looking for innovative improvements on sound quality- Thank you
Great! I took note of that. Thanks for your comment and feedback! Glad to help
How’s the sound quality of this mixer compared to a analog mixer
I haven't done a side-by-side comparison with the sound but I can imagine it's just as good or even better.
DJ MoJoe cool thx brotha
Quality is more clear and crisp imo
Try Ui12, 16 or 24; You will never need anything else.
Cool, what do you like about them?
There is not one person demonstrating the reverb effect. Is there something wrong with the reverb effect. I mean who teaches these people
I used it an event 2 weeks ago and works great! The client hired a singer from The Voice and worked well. There are different reverb settings you can choose from, too. And on the mixer board, you can always use the FX mute if the person is speaking, instead of singing. Then you can always unmute the FX mute when the person starts singing. Very useful IMO
Mojoe great information bro what’s the name of this mixer again? Also are you heading to Dj Expo this year
Thank you!
It’s the Bose T8S: amzn.to/309rzKy
And yup, I’ll be there!
Zzzzz
