I found it pretty much life changing as far as the band goes.

You could be right. what we do is store each gig in the XR18, so when we go back there we just recall those settings from the desk, in to MS's layout. Never done it the other way around when off line.
-
It's been a while since I did it, but im pretty sure you can do this with layouts, but the mixer holds all the levels settings. These get sent to the tablet once it's connected to the mixer......I think.

2 weeks later and ive heard back. Yes, they want me to send mine to them. At this stage i don’t think ill risk it, as ill need my IEM’s and i don’t feel comfortable sending them off to a company that that takes this long to reply to a message. -
I also only use the internal router at home, and never really had any issues, but after the first time I tried at a gig and couldn't log on, I don’t take the risk now I actually much prefer the Behringer app, but Ive found it sluggish and unreliable, so I tend to stick with MS because it's what I know alas works. The Behringer app seems better laid out and very easy to see what's going on. MS can be like that, but it's all too easy to go further with the layouts and over complicate things. When I got my XR18 I did use it as my home interface for a while and had no issues at all, nothing really to set up and no drivers etc (im on Mac). I love that I can take one USB cable and record multitrack to my iPad (or even phone) at gigs. This has been very enlightening as far as who knows the songs/can play them properly. Obviously i redo any mistake I make before sending the band the full mix down lol.

Also check out the compact mixer thread, as these are also talked about quite a lot We went over to an XR18 a couple of years ago and it was life changing. We normally use one of those small travel routers, and never had issues on 5ghz. I have had a few gigs where for speed ive tried to connect tot the internal 2.4ghz and just couldn't. It sits there ws no bandwidth availible. Now I keep a Lan cable and adapter handy as well. I also tried a 6E router recently, just as an experiment I tried this and found it worked perfectly at close distances (on and just off stage, say about 20ft out on the dance floor). I did a scan of the pub and no one was using this band.

I use Mixing station all the time, but it does have a steep learning curve. Even now after using it for a couple of years some very basic things have me confused if i haven’t used them for while. It’s definitely the most versatile, and I’ve also found it’s the most reliable as far as connection goes, but i can see why people get put off.

Well i wouldn’t be going out and charging a lot of money if i wasn’t up to the job. For the record, i don’t rate his singing at all, never have. Awful voice. It’s a shame that people’s last memory of a once great band will be this. Sure, Ozzy will get a lot of praise from those who are fans, and sympathy from other, but it will be ‘he did well considering’.

As will be the vocals. The bloke can hardly talk, let alone sing. At his age there is no way he will suddenly start to sing in tune 🤔 Saw Sabbath the Dio was fronting them (Heaven and Hell), what a difference.

Thanks but im sure I’ll get a reply back via FB in a day or so.
-
Considering they have an email address on their website that doesn't work, id say they are very laid back 😂 I noticed i have had communication from them via FB messenger before so hopefully I'll get a response soon. I can live without my IEM's for a few weeks, as I can use my singers IE100's if I need to. Hmm, maybe I could just go back to the IE100's if it's a stock item they have.
-
Well I did email them using the link on their website and the email bounced back as address not found. I'll try via FB.
-
Cheers. did you have to send your IEM’s in? I looked on his website and they aren't listed. The IE 400 is a bit different to the IE100 (i have both), although still in the same ballpark size wise. Once i get my ears done I’ll get a bit more serious about it.
-
Wow, thanks for the write up Phil. Im happy with the foam tips i use with my IE400’s, but this could be an upgrade i can actually afford and wont lose my IE400’s. Like you say, just going ‘Custom’ can be as varied as buying off the shelf for some. This is what has put me off, as i like what i hear already, but could do with it being a bit easier to get them in the ear so they sit well. I’ll definitely be looking in to this option in a month or so. Need to sort out the ear fitting first.

Surely its only a rip off if you get ripped off?
