BassAdder60 Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Thought I would start a Shure users group on here as the Shure website etc is hard work. Perhaps post details about buying additional cables and links, pouch’s etc Working issues and reports and general good or bad points about the product 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted July 27, 2023 Author Share Posted July 27, 2023 Ok Neotech medium pouch .. just fitted it to my strap ( without transmitter ) and it slides up and down a bit. Does that change when you fit your transmitter ? ( mines on its way ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyb625 Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) This was where I got my right angled cable from, I think a few others have done as well: https://www.designacable.com/peavey-and-shure-glxd-wireless-system-lead-for-beltpacks-2.html Edited July 27, 2023 by jimmyb625 Cable, not cabke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted July 27, 2023 Author Share Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) Mines arrived and been tested Very nice indeed and robust and sounds spot on. Tuner is fast and accurate and nice bright screen I’m running mine at default 0 DB gain setting and channel 11 ( default ) Latency ?? Not detectable so no issue Fits the Neotech medium pouch perfectly although I’ve got the Levy’s MM4 coming too for my spare bass Battery had approx half charge in it from the box so I’m charging it up via the supplied USB lead The four rubber feet peel off ( saved ) as to get better velcro fit on pedalboard ( it’s heavier than some pedals ) Some pics below Edited July 27, 2023 by BassAdder60 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted July 27, 2023 Author Share Posted July 27, 2023 Question .. I’m charging my transmitter using the USB lead and the led is flashing red ( has done for 3hrs ) The instructions say solid red = charging not flashing like mine ? Is it correct?

Muppet Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Mine stay red whilst charging, then flashes green, then solid green. Have yout got enough current going in to it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted July 27, 2023 Author Share Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) It’s from the supplied charger and USB lead. It’s definitely charging as it’s gone from 3 red bars on the receiver to all of them when I pair it.

Muppet Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Just realised mine is the older version to yours so it could be different but I guess as long is it goes green eventually then all is good! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassAdder60 Posted July 28, 2023 Author Share Posted July 28, 2023 (edited) Ok GLXD16 + users How do you know you are working on 2.4 and 5.8ghz at the same time ? The default is Band ( both ) Edited July 28, 2023 by BassAdder60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbass Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Just bought the 16+ for my board. I saw Simon McBride using one with Deep Purple - a good enough endorsement for me! Will report back with findings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 Definitely a great product .. I’m well impressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted August 1, 2023 Author Share Posted August 1, 2023 Ok pouches .. Neotech vs Levy’s MM4 Personally the Levy’s is better at staying put on the strap so the Neotech is my storage pouch for the transmitter while in the gig bag Neotech does have the top strap to hold the transmitter in place but the Levy’s MM4 is a snug fit ( I use mine facing up not down ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have it facing down though now to relieve the strain on the cable. I previously had it upright and the cable failed at the locking connection due to being constantly bent at this point. I got a new cable made from Designacable and ever since have mounted the transmitter upside down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbass Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Any suggestions for a pouch to fit a really wide strap? I use Gruvgear Solostrap Neo and hope there's an option to suit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbass Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 First outing for the D16+ tonight and it performed admirably (see pic)! May have to lower the gain a little as it felt a bit clippy at times. Has anyone else had this experience? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 0db should be unity so I'd check its set to that and compare levels cables and wireless. Guess it depends what preamp you're running it into but I've never experienced it causing anything to clip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbass Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 How do you guys sort out the extra cable slack between jack output and transmitter pack? I was thinking about adding some kind of sleeve to the bottom part of the strap to conceal/semi secure the cable to the strap. Any ideas?

Mine is facing up in the Levy pouch and then I run it under my strap then into bass Jack. Hardly any slack to worry about I’m using a 75cm long lead so slighter shorter than the 90cm stock one I believe Edited August 15, 2023 by BassAdder60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acidbass Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Went for the Neotech medium pouch and it fits the strap perfectly. Flawless operation so far from the Shure - might order a slightly shorter jack cable for it but otherwise very pleased! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSeagull Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 My older unit doesn't have the jack input option but there are times when I just want to plug a bass in without using the wireless. If I used a switchable AB switch with the AB as inputs, one for the Shure and the other for a non wireless input that's an OK solution? Or am I missing something obvious!

jimmyb625 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 That would work. You wouldn't have the tuner functionality but it should be ok (could possibly be volume differences). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
