That's a very niche FB feed you have there. Are there groups for ear impressions? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha - it would seem so - but it's tinnitus awareness week, so there's quite a few hearing related companies that I follow (which is actually quite a lot!) that are obviously maximising on the fact. A fair few sponsored posts going around - which of course are going to be targeted... so unless you are weird like me and have interests in facebook listed such as "tinnitus", I suspect you may be saved from such posts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBS_freak Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 @Gunsfreddy2003 @andysg42 @Bigwan @MoJoKe @Dood @knicknack @sunsse @xzodar et al. Just thinking about amp format. How do you expect the amp should look? rack? small enclosure? is physical size a big issue to you? the ability to rack a small enclosure with rack ears?

andysg42 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Half rack would be ok for me or a small unit next to the floor base unit . Digital or analog Russ ? 200w to match the base ? Looking forward to this , 🙏🏼 Can’t wait 😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd need about a dozen of them because we're all on wireless and swap places / run around on stage regularly. 2. I'm already about 12 inches taller than Jamie and Liam so they won't thank me for standing on a raised platform lol. That said I'd still be tempted because it looks so cool.

Basically it's two cables going to the mains socket... with a relay that opens in time with your playing. Just clips onto your belt and causes some considerable feedback. Oh jeez - yeah, shortest band ever. Then there's G... (Funnily enough, I spoke to him via FB after your first gig. Said you did well and it was clearly down to your superior IEMs! ) You haven't been subjected to the PSM200s yet have you?

My PSM300 is now in the Fraudio rack and I have a stereo feed which makes me very happy. They're really great guys who are fully on board with IEM's so I'll be slowly selling them the idea of custom moulds and ditching the PSM200s 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital amps tend to be smaller and lighter , but will go with what you recommend Russ . An optional bag for the base unit with a sleeve for the amp would be good , one lift . What’s the timeframe for these being on the market Russ ? Cheers Andy🍻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Andy🍻 Realistically, we'll be looking at interest before looking too hard at bags and the like! Timeframe? Well, put it like this, both myself and Nick are chomping at the bit to be the recipients of the first two off the production line so we are somewhat focused! I don't think we'll ever put anything out that we don't think is right. We are having lots of conversations to make sure everything is absolutely spot on.

I took the plunge to IEM to save my back from all the heavy gear and to reduce my footprint on the stage, so I would wish for a lightweight, small enclosure amp that is easy to carry. I'm not sure if I think the looks are important, because I am not yet certain if I would place it in on the floor right next to the board, where it would be preferable with some good looks, or if I would hide it away in the back along with the IEM rack. It would definitely be an advantage if it can be rack mounted. Edited February 7, 2019 by sunsse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knicknack Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I'd definitley agree with the Half-Rack idea... It's going to be playing with IEM systems so it may as well be compatible! If you're running a Sennheiser unit for instance, it should be possible to run one of it's 'thrus' into the amp! All self contained then.

All self contained then. We hear you! My stuff is all rack based so has been biased to that view... at the moment. Being able to rack a couple of amps together in the band rig would be pretty sexy... right? The Sennheiser through to the board is an ideal setup... I'm assuming that the board will always be at the end of the chain (so you'll need to split off your IEM mix to the board if you aren't running a separate aux for the board). There is an alternative that I'm looking at - but won't go into too much detail at the moment. Edited February 7, 2019 by EBS_freak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
