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? If you know how long you want the cable, I can make you one. I have the connectors and cable in stock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassAdder60 Posted December 5, 2023 Author Share Posted December 5, 2023 I’m still using the Shure system every gig and find it perfect Highly recommended folks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeponehandloose Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Its a great bit of kit but screams out for a couple of improvements. The tuner should be accessed by a long press on the footswitch with the A/B function a quick press. Also a USB charging port should have been put in the power lead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPJ Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 As I have a significant birthday this year, and as I have a couple of ‘festival’ type gigs coming up, I’m thinking about upgrading my Line6 G30 to the Shure GLXD16+. Nothing wrong with the Line6 other than the transmitter feels very flimsy (battery door already showing signs of failure). Quick question to the GLXD user community, does the transmitter have a belt clip or similar? I have two custom straps with loops to take a belt clip hence the question.

jimmyb625 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Yes, it has a belt clip (wire) on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted February 29 Author Share Posted February 29 And it’s worked flawlessly since I purchased mine. I pop mine in a Neotech pouch which goes in my back jeans pocket I wouldn’t be without it and you have a great tuner too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted March 12 Author Share Posted March 12 Sadly due to much needed funds due to house move / relationship split I need the money so this is now up for sale on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cetera Posted October 21 Share Posted October 21 My transmitter sadly seems to have an intermittent fault (sound dropouts) around the cable input on the transmitter. It's not the cable as I have 3 (incl Desgnacables) and they all do it. Anyone have any suggestions for what I can do, apart from buy a whole new system. No point buying just a transmitter (approx £300) as I may as well just buy the whole new GLXD+ system at that price...😭 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be worth ringing them to see if they could repair/replace it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudewheresmybass Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 to be fair, If I have any issues with equipment I normally contact manufacturers first. It normally works out well, especially if the company are American Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine did that and when I realized it wasn't the cable, but in the socket, I was way out of any warranty and had no choice but to open the transmitter up and repair by resoldering the tiny wires back to the socket pins. Work carefully and pay attention because the rubber door can get pinched and not open correctly, but was relatively easy fix. So yes, periodically check that the retaining ring hasn't unscrewed itself. Edited November 4 by mikeswals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeswals Posted November 4 Share Posted November 4 My GLXD16 is one the best pieces of gear I invested in. I've had it since 2015 and done well over a thousand shows. I have two transmitters for it and kept in Neotech pouches, and have done all the current firmware updates from Shure's site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cetera Posted November 4 Share Posted November 4 Thanks all! I've found a local handyman who loves messing with stuff like this and he opened it up, identified the broken connections and mended it better and stronger than ever for just £20! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
