myself and the bass player in our band are looking into possibly getting an IEM system for the two of us.
I only play guitar, and would want the band mix in one ear and my guitar in the other.
the bass player however does backing vox as well & needs vocals as well as instruments into his earphones. so each of us wants a different mix in our phones.
my question is this - is it possible to purchase just one transmitter and that be able to send signals to different receiver packs with our own mixes from each pack? hope that makes sense. or would we both have to purchase individual transmitters as we are both after different mixes.
thanks for any help.

but normally what happens is you put the band mix in one channel and the things you do (like guitar or vocals) in the other so you can then adjust on the fly (this is all in mono)
Unless you have a desk with a lot of aux outs and a sympathetic sound guy
You can't do what you want with one transmitter and 2 receivers ... you can get 2 mono mixs from that but splitting things into each ear is asking for 2 stereo mix's ..... you can only have different things in each ear with a stereo mix which would require 2 aux sends each and a stereo transmitter and receiver each.
To get 2 independent mono mixs with 2 aux sends, one transmitter and 2 receivers mod you IEM cables so one has sleeve wired to ground and then tip to left and right ear piece ... ring open circuit and the other so sleeve is wired to ground and ring is connected to both left and right ear piece with tip open circuit
