  1. Well that was quick. Ive sent the Boss back. It cut out a few times at home. IIR it used to do this when i had them before but were rock solid at gigs. I’ll live with the larger LEKATO for now. Thats been rock solid at home and at rehearsals.
  2. I just found this on Boss’s website. Not sure if it’s been posted before. Seems like they downgraded the battery in the WL-20.
  3. I’ve just remembered why i kept changing mine. I did start off with the normal set, but at the time i was using a couple of TC Electronic pedals. The ones with the app that sends the changes via the instrument pup. I found the cable tone feature was attenuating the high freq and stopping this from working. So i got the full range set. Then i found that to be a bit ‘clicky’ when using a pick and a bright signal, so i ended up going back i the standard version. 1st world issues 😂
  4. After making my post above, i also realised i can’t put my bass down with the Lekato plugged in (or i have to be really careful). I dont have this issue with the Xvive as it’s smaller. So i have ordered the Boss WL-20 from Amazon. Better the devil you know etc.
  5. I may just send the Lekato back and get the Boss again. I was worried about interference but i never actually had any issues with the ones i had before. I seem to be the only member of the new band that uses wireless so i do t think i have anything to worry about at the moment.
  6. Yeah, i have considered that. I too was wary about the Boss sticking out when i had it, but i never had an issue. It felt solid sitting on the frotn of the P bass.
  7. Had a rehearsal tonight with my P bass. Not impressed with how the transmitter sits. It’s fine on my Yamaha as the jack is side mounted, but there seems no where for it to lay flat on the P bass. Not a big deal, but i wish it was a bit smaller.
  8. I don’t think it’s a good idea to store them plugged in. The battery will drain until (maybe) the auto off kicks in.
  9. There will probably be someone who would like to get Netflix on it as well. I guess you cant please all the people all of the time 😂
  10. Gear4music have one in stock, but delivery is from Sweden so the cost is a bit higher than other places.
  11. Sorry, i was looking at the S1. I can see the P1 is cheaper but it’s seems it’s only at Bax for that price as far as i can tell. Nothing wrong with that of course. i can get the UR22-C for around £120, or used for £90. I’ll have another look at it though.
  12. Hmm, that does look rather cool, ive not seen that before, but price wise it's above the UR22-C so i don't think il bother. Cheers anyway.
  13. I used to have the Boss EQ-200. Thats a lot cheaper than the SA and has 128 memories. Only Graphic though.
  14. My immediate action would have been to Google it 😂
  15. Yeah, i know what it is lol. It’s the EQ section from the preamp they brought out last year, but with added Q knobs.
  16. It has to be wired to work as an interface. I want to use Youtube. BT is not going to cut it.
  17. Anyone got/using one yet? I was thinking of getting a Q-Strip (again) but this is much cheaper. It lacks a lot of features, but those that i never used on my previous Q-Strip so does appeal to me. https://www.ibanez.com/eu/products/detail/pteq.html
  18. Yeah, when my singer got her IE100’s (well, had mine), she commented that there was a slight drop in volume, but also that it was a more even sound so just turned up a bit. After a few rehearsals she said that she actually had them louder than her KZ’s, but could do so because it wasn't as painful.
  19. Which version? I had both and preferred the guitar version at one point, then the full range one, then i think i went back i the guitar version as i found the full range one a bit clicky when using a pick.
  20. Yeah, i was mainly addressing the volume issue you mentioned rather than the IEMs themselves.
  21. Well the clarity comes mostly from the mid range, so having a cleaner low end could allow that through. Low end uses a lot of power, I’d imagine even in IEM’s, so taming that could help you hear the bass a bit better and get louder. All our monitor mixes have a HPF applied and the clarity improvement is quite noticeable to me. Don’t forget all your mics will also be picking up the on stage sound and feeding that back to your IEM’s. Remember how everyone was jumping on the HPF fad a few years ago? Same principle applies here. Anyway, apologies for derailing things.
  22. Could you put a small EQ unit between the Aux and the Xvive transmitter? Maybe not an option if they are headphone outs though.
  23. Should add, Dawn uses the IE100 and Xvive and has never needed to max the volume out on the receiver. She has a full band mix in them. Maybe one thing you could try is to EQ a bit of low end out? Sometimes all that low energy can cloud things. Also, the fit is everything IME. Get a good isolation and you can hear things much clearer. Only now am i happy with how things are, and couldn’t get by without the memory foam tips.
