It sounds like this would be the type of setup I want.  Does anyone
have a photo of this type of setup?  I want to know:
1. How does 2 mics go into a rolls pb224 and have it routed to 1
output for my HIMD?

2. How does the XLR plugs get converted to a 1/8 plug from the Rolls
back into the recorder?

Again, I am really interested in know how to set this up.  If anyone
has any examples or pics, please post.=20

Thank you all in advance.
