If you store your current setup as a preset (even if you are not using it as a preset), when you switch it in pedal mode, no matter what the current position of the knobs, it will be whatever you had set, even when you turn sections on or off, until you actually move the knobs themselves, and if you do, you can work out what they were by holding edit and turning the knob until its right

Its not even one of the good epiphone thunderbirds, its the full budget bolt on one.

I use the two input one of those to take the input from my chapman stick as it also produces phantom power - the stick has a weird / clever 'active if there is phantom power, passive if there isn't' thing.

It was a duplicate post and the duplicate was delete that you were looking at ok, already answered!

I have a Zoom Q2 that I was going to bring, but I broke the connector the other day!

Oh thats perfect -
Trouble with all these things, there is a limited amount of time and the sheer fact of moving these thing around. I could have also brought my Alto 312s if there had been room in the car, which I already know there is a clear difference with the Evoxes and we could have had others to maybe reduce the monoculture of the RCFs, because as good as they are, a lot of people can't afford them. But it is a lot of stuff and it would have taken @Phil Starr a lot more time to set up, and he was also running a cab build in the other room! And I do wish I bought a proper non compressing audio recorder too, but too much stuff and too little time, and when it comes down to 'do we remember the audio recorder or do we remember the biscoff cake', no one is going to thank you for the audio recorder!

I thought so too, which is a shame considering how far away from that my group is

they are both -3dB

The only thing I noticed on the evox was the boom, which I assume was the stage - I guess I am normally on flagstone floors! I also think it might have sounded better off the stage as the mid response doesn't really seem to be as strong much below or above the pole height, whereas side to side is quite a lot better (until you get to 90 degrees off axis and then it plummets). The RCFs were certainly better at highs I think, but I would have expected them to be a lot better anyway

No, I don't adjust pan, but they seem useful. I agree, that themselves they aren't worth that much although for me, if I was in the market for a new mixer, the price difference between the 12 and 18 makes the 18 a no brainer, but thats because the 12 channels and no wifi wouldn't work for me. But then it is an easy decision as Im not in the market!
-
I think the smart knobs seem like a good idea, touch a channel then you have gain, level and pan on knobs rather than the touch screen, with a master volume, whats not to like?

Does look nicer in black, but changing that body would move the front strap peg from the 12th fret to the 15th and I suspect the head to the floor (as well as looking worse!)
-
For me (in person at the event) - I liked the 745 and the Evox system equally (which is good as the evox was mine) - the 745 had more top top, the evox had more high middle, but they are not quite the same. The evox had more bass boom during the wishbone ash track, which I willl put down to the wooden stage as I hadn't heard that before. I prefered the evox on the first track, probably due to the vocals (which is a shame as that is nothing like ours), I thing the 745 sounded a bit better in the WA track because of the lack of boom. The 10" fell apart during the WA track because as soon as the bass kicked in you couldn't hear the guitars at all. Overall I was pretty happy in that I didn't feel (in person) the evox were lacking so my chase for a PA system is pretty well at an end (and I wouldn't want to carry the 745s in the first place!)

No-one bumps for something being sold. When you change the title to sold (which is what you should do if you are following the rules), it gets bumped to the top of the list as something has happened to the post - its how the forum works. No, the real annoyance is when people don't mark their item as sold.
-
Fraid not, it is tied to groups!

I am guessing you have got to the limit of your photo allowance. Hang on, I am an admin, I don't need to guess, "you have used 390.6 MB of 390.63 MB allowance", so yes.

Had a great day, nice to catch up with people and talk to a load of new people. Played too many basses, want too many other things now! But we are so hardcore that even the announcements needed a huge PA support!
-
Undoubtedly i would expect it to be better, but I have used the x18 at many hundreds of gigs over the last 7 years, its been thrown around, stood on, had drinks drop on it and been yanked around by its cables, and in that time hasn't missed a beat once, so I trust it. If I had nothing now I would probably get the CQ18, but there is nothing that I would really gain from it at the moment, and who needs better mic preamps when your singer sounds muffled at source!
-
That to me says to turn up, the fact that they thought they could try!
-
4 busses is just that - you put as much of which channels you want on each bus, whether it is one for vox, they aren't exclusive, although they can if you want. Oh I don't know - I just know that using a stereo headphone output for anything other than headphones is not a great thing.
-
Yeh, that seems quite a drop off for less than a quarter of the price of the 18.

You have to raise a support request to change your email

The output impedance and level of a headphone output is very different from an Aux output. For me the price difference between the CQ12 and 18 doesn't seem enough. I mean they are too expensive for me (which is a shame, that 18 does look nice, but the x18 is still working fine at every gig) but if I had the money for the 12, I think I would push it up to the 18.

Hey if he is going to put a duvet cover on himself for a tenner, imagine what he would do for £20!
