@lemmywinks running in stereo is a big improvement over mono. In your Aux setup, set up link over channels on your Aux bus view so Aux output 1/2 become Aux 1 (stereo). Then you can pan your channels independent of FoH. Repeat this for Aux outputs 3/4, 5/6, 7/8 (annoying how output is on far right and far left of patch bay), 9/10 etc...

Just thought, if you got a DL32R, I'm guessing that you are going to be wanting stereo - Check this thread out for connectivity options - https://community.musictribe.com/t5/Recording/Using-the-Powerplay-P2-for-Wired-IEM/m-p/237996

Suspect it will be a while yet... I've been on the beta testing team. Looking good but progress isn't anywhere near as quick you'd hope eh?

The Behringer is probably built better than the Fischer unit. Having had some P2s in my arsenal for some time, the only real downside is the battery clip inside. In normal circumstances, it's fine... but if the unit is ever dropped (which you shouldn't do - but it can happen), the chances are the batteries will jump out of the clip and the unit won't power up. It's easy to fix - just pull the housing apart (as you would to replace the battery) and reinsert the battery. It's a small gotcha but can be frustrating in the heat of the moment when the thing won't power up and you forget about this little quirk and you know that the unit has fresh batteries in it. The main difference between the the P1 and P2 is the fact that the P1 enables two balanced feeds to give you a stereo signal whereas the P2 is only balanced in mono and unbalanced if you run stereo. For most people this is a point not worth mentioning - but obviously, in problematic environments, the unbalanced feed can give you noise on the line, so to speak. Battery wise, it's worth getting into the habit of getting rechargeables and getting them charged for every gig. Having said that, the battery lifes on both of these units are pretty good and will easily get you through a few gigs. However, nobody wants to look like a clown when the power goes down mid gig and you are scrabbling around to replace batteries. The mix function of the P1 is generally for dual mono where one feed is from the PA, and one is a "more me" function where you can boost/cut your own feed in relation to the other feed. I personally don't like them... especially if you are using modern desks where you have control over the whole mix from a tablet or phone anyway. It certainly wouldn't be a make or break feature for me. The other thing mentioning is that the P2 is designed to clip onto your belt. The P1 is a bit clumsy in this respect. With two XLRs hanging off it, it can be quite a weight. You'll want a twin core XLR to minimise the trailing cables... or better still, use it as a headphone amp and get a headphone extender... but then you should take into account that your headphone extender is unbalanced also...

Wow. Great save from a bad situation. If it's any consolation, I think this bass really suits being headless.

Good effort!

Well, the Midas DP48 is certainly floating my boat. Of course, what I am waiting for with baited breath... is the new Behringer Wing...

And I thought my day couldn't get more dull.

ZS10 should be more warm, especially in the lows... but its the headroom when you dig in that you'll notice most. Custom is the biggest improvement that you can make assuming that you have a decent mix to begin with... but appreciate that it is a considerable outlay if you aren't sure how they'll fit in with your setup. The P2 is a very capable unit... I have no issues with the unit, it performs and sounds great. My only slight criticism is that if the unit is knocked or dropped, the batteries can fall out of their holder preventing the unit from being turned on until the batteries are re-seated. As long as you are aware of that though, it's a quick fix to get a seemingly dead unit operating again. It would be nice if it was a balanced stereo unit - but no great shakes really as most people wouldn't even recognise the difference between balanced/unbalanced in most gig situations. There's plenty of people getting good results with a set of ZS10s and a P2 - in fact, they've pretty much become the BC standard go to IEM solution without breaking the bank.

The ZS10 is going to be the best value for money IEM you can get for bass - as noted in the thread early, if gives you loads of headroom in the lowend and whilst it doesn't have the most honest of signature or wide soundstage, it does serve as a great on stage monitor. Certainly for less than 40 quid, you'll be hard pressed to find a more performant monitor - in fact, they'll smoke most 400 pound monitors. I wouldn't bother going anywhere else unless you are ready to get into the world of customs, where you are looking at something like a quad balanced armature IEM or the oddball UE6 which gives you good performance and headroom, whilst retaining a lower pricetag due to it's hybrid driver setup.

The latest firmware was delivered two days ago to the beta testers. I'm beta testing for MacOS and iOS so can't really comment on the Andriod or PC ports - but 5.1 is defo going forward at this stage.

5.1 has been in the works for quite some time now - and is currently in beta. When 5.1 is officially out... well, that's anybody's guess. It's quite overdue now!

Build it with Bernie from GB exact to my spec. Perfect. Haven’t wanted for anything since.

He hadn't got the hair for it. Guitar and bass straight through the top at the end of the songs..

I've just watched it with the sound off and hummed a random melody and spat some random lyrics. Certainly puts a different slant on it.

beyer DT770s!

I remember all this from my maths lessons when I was a kid. Not that I've ever really had a real world application in which to make use of what I'd learned. I've never been a gambler - my only flutter being on the lottery. But I don't think anybody plays that based on odds...

Paintbrush!

We get dredged down, but we get up again, no dredge is gonna keep us down...

Where is Dianne Abbot when you need her?

Just to clear things up... On a coin toss, the odds of an outcome are 1/1 The probability is 1/2. ...right?

Because depending upon the gig, it could be the difference between ruining a wedding night entertainment... or not. All depends upon the gig of course.

Nope.

Gosh, times were a lot simpler when 50 quid would buy you a second hand Argos Encore bass from the local newspaper classifieds.

This one seems a little (oo-er) because it's a lottery as opposed to a "prize draw" with an element of skill involved. These things tend to come accompanied with a question to answer so there's an element of "skill" involved in the process. There's quite a notable youtube raffling off a Golf R at the moment in such a manner. (https://planetofdreams.co.uk/product/the-youtube-famous-560bhp-golf-r/) There was a similar business idea presented to Dragon's Den and they laboured the point about being a prize draw with an element of skill to remain on the proper side of the law... Anyway, I did a little googling and this turned up - Legal problems Raffles risk being shut down if they breach the Gambling Act 2005. Only charities and not-for-profits are legally allowed to sell prize tickets where the result is based on chance. To avoid being classified as an illegal lottery, a prize competition must involve an element of skill. So a raffle must ask entrants a quiz question that is tricky enough that a significant proportion will get it wrong and won’t be eligible for the prize draw. The Gambling Commission has clamped down on raffles, taking action against 42 competitions in 2017 and 2018. PayPal and Eventbrite have stopped their services being used for house raffles, making it difficult to set up a secure payment method. Another obstacle is HMRC, which may regard the proceeds from raffle ticket sales as income subject to income tax and capital gains tax.
