The VOX AC4TVmini tube guitar combo amp joins the AC4TV, AC4TV8 and AC4TVH as the newest – and most diminutive – member of the modern AC4 family. Based on the popular VOX AC4 from the 1960s, these all-tube practice amps have been factory-modded with a premium transformer and select components for optimum tone. Equipped with an original VOX design 6.5" speaker, the AC4TVmini is an easy way to enjoy the serious vintage sound you expect from VOX.

The original AC4, reborn with today's technology
The AC4TVmini improves on the hardware of its vintage counterpart. This up-to-date Class A version retains the distinctive EL84 power tube of the original and features a 12AX7 powered pre-amp, delivering the pure British tone that's loved by all. By adjusting the volume and tone settings, you can create a broad range of tones – from a sweet, clean sound to that distinctive VOX overdrive sound.

Switchable output level: Crank it up and turn it down!
In the past, the only way to obtain great-sounding distortion using a single volume knob was to simply crank the volume. The AC4TVmini provides an attenuator switch that allows the output power to be set at 4 Watts, 1 Watt or even 1/10th of a Watt. This convenient and ear-saving feature allows the AC4TVmini to create a real, musically satisfying distortion – even at the lowest power setting. You'll be able to enjoy playing to your heart's content with your favorite tone late at night, in your dorm room – wherever! Extremely portable, the AC4TVmini is also ideal for recording, jamming with friends, rehearsals, and more.

Small and stylish
Today's modern AC4 Series – including the AC4TVmini – borrows the retro-chic "TV" front styling that first appeared on the classic 1958 AC15. This vintage VOX design is still in use on today's AC15HTV from the VOX Heritage Collection. Stylish, clean, and classic, the AC4TVmini will look great anywhere your music takes you.

Korg PX5D -  $99 here:

    http://www.activemusician.com/item--EM.PX5D (http://www.activemusician.com/item--EM.PX5D)

    Shipping is extra $, and Music123 wouldn't price-match,  - but many go to their local Guitar Center and picked them up for $99

These make excellent guitar practice rigs, Amp Simulator with programmable backing drums and bass  / Real Time External Stereo Audio Transposser , 80 second Phrase Trainer, Footpedal Input jack, and (not too well known) the Korg PX5D also works as a stereo IPAD USB Audio Interface for Ipad IOS Garageband, etc  - using nothing more than the PX5D + Apple Ipad Camera Kit USB adapter. (Powered USB Hub is not needed)

I actually like the  Pandora PX5D's Amp Modelling (excellent Vox AC-30 emulation), and the harmonizer works very well too.
More info on the Korg PX5D as Ipad Audio Interface is here:

In celebration of the 2nd Anniversary, TC Electronic Polytune is on sale for 99 cents.

(https://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tcelectronic.com%2Fmedia%2Fiphone4_banner_980x300.jpg&hash=b3a401d4727ae1f29bb3a845dcbcef86ac931033)

PolyTune® for iPhone®


PolyTune® for iPhone works with the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/polytune/id364009203?mt=8 (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/polytune/id364009203?mt=8)

The PolyTune® iPhone app is a 1:1 port of the award-winning PolyTune® pedal tuner, and it offers the exact same, patents pending tuning technology and amazing features as the pedal version.

In short, guitar tuning has been revolutionized at a stroke - or strum - with PolyTune®, the world's first polyphonic guitar tuner. This cutting-edge technology revolutionizes tuning and accomplishes what has been deemed impossible until now: tuning all strings simultaneously - it's as simple as: Strum. Tune. Rock!

Where the PolyTune® pedal is the perfect live solution, the iPhone version ensures perfect and swift tuning whenever you're off-stage - and with the iPhone's built-in microphone, polyphonic tuning is now available for acoustic instruments, too! The PolyTune app is fully compatible with iPhone4, iOS 4 and provides full Retina display support for the ultimate viewing experience when you're tuning.



The magic lies in a never before seen approach to tuning aimed at speed, accuracy and ease of use. With PolyTune® for iPhone, you simply strum all strings on your guitar or bass at once, and it immediately tells you which strings to tune, allowing you to get in tune fast, and back to doing what you love the most: playing.




Fever Pitch
Equally effective for guitar and bass, PolyTune® for iPhone is extremely flexible as well. The reference pitch can be set to your preference and ranges from 435Hz to 445Hz. This guarantees you'll be able to play along with anyone, with any instrument and in any situation.

Drop it like it's hot

If you are a guitarist that likes to play at a different pitch than standard, this is the perfect tool, allowing for dropped tunings from E-flat all the way down to B. Whatever your pitch or tuning, PolyTune® for iPhone is a sure-fire way to be spot-on, with an accuracy of just plus/minus 0.5 cent.

PolyTune App Screens
            


Chromatic champion

Besides the Polyphonic tuner, PolyTune® for iPhone has a chromatic tuner that can hang with the best current tuning technology out there, but we are never satisfied with the current norm and added some features to make this tuner's chromatic section stand out from the crowd.

Tuning modes
Let's start with the two separate chromatic tuning modes, which cater to your individual preferences and needs. Needle mode is for those who are used to the classic view on a tuner. If you want a little more real-time information, we have included stream-mode, which measures even the slightest pitch variation and instantly feeds the info back to you via a rotating motion on the display.

Tuning Magnet
Key to both these great chromatic modes is an ultra-fast and precise response, which is achieved by the use of the unique tuner magnet feature. This slows down the needle once you get close to the desired pitch, making it much easier to get the job done quickly.

MonoPoly
Whether you want to use the polyphonic tuner to get in tune, or prefer to go the chromatic route, this pedal has you covered. PolyTune® for iPhone features 'MonoPoly', a unique patent-pending technology that recognizes whether you play one or more strings and instantly switches to the appropriate tuning mode.

Swap the colors
PolyTune for iPhone also has a 'colorblind' feature that allows you to swap the default green/red colors with yellow/blue. Just choose whatever suits your eyes the best.


The making of PolyTune® iPhone AppTuning as it should be
PolyTune® for iPhone was our chance to build the ultimate tuning tool from the ground up and finally get rid of some of the current tuner drawbacks that guitarists run into time and time again. Tuners have been around for some 30 odd years and we felt it was high time they got in tune with today's guitarists.




We can't make tuning fun. But we can sure make it a whole lot easier.

How to make a stomp box PolyTune® from the PolyTune® iPhone AppWe want to do our part for the guitar community and truly innovate the life of guitarists. And with PolyTune® for iPhone's extraordinary features and cutting-edge technology, we feel we have accomplished just that. We are passionate guitarists ourselves and we work every single day to make all our lives easier and more rocking. We did it for multi-effects with G-Force, G-Major2, Nova System and G-System, we did it for stomp boxes with the Nova series, and now PolyTuneTM is here to give tuning a much needed kick in the A440!

I was lucky enough to get it when it was free, same as the Peterson iStroboSoft.  It's weird that the TC app works better, IMO, than the Peterson whereas I find the opposite to be true with the hardware versions.  Maybe it has to do with mic sensitivity, but the Peterson app seems to have an "in tune" indent which is contrary to the whole strobe idea.  Anyways, the Polytune app has been my goto tuner, as far as app tuners go, for a couple years now.  Not as accurate as my Peterson hardware tuners IME, but great in a pinch.

Thanks for the heads-up!  I've been "this close" to ordering a TC Polytune for months now.  Spending 99c is definitely better than $99.  It even looks the part!  :)

I picked up Everyday Looper last night, too.  Pretty cool app for $7, and it might just distract me away from dropping $300 on a new Digitech or Boss pedal.

For the GR-55, pretty good capacity for storing WAV files for backing tracks or song references, backups, etc.

I don't have either of these yet, picking mine up in a few hours. So not sure about the length of the 64. The GR-55 cavity is fairly generous. It looks like it would fit. I have a similar looking 16GB in mine now. I'll measure the 64 and post the dimensions once I have it.

In store pickup or various shipping is available. The cheapest shipping to my CA, USA address was around $6.00 US. It looks like they do NOT ship international.

There may be better deals on eBay. These seemed like pretty good prices to me though. Especially since I can walk in and grab one.

What It Is: The You Rock Guitar is a Midi Synthesizer and Controller built with guitarists in mind. Its on-board synthesizer has 25 sampled guitar sounds and 50 synthesizer sounds including a wide variety of keyboards, strings, brass, woodwinds, and percussive mallet instruments. Besides having its on-board synth sounds, you can connect the You Rock Guitar to your keyboard or Software Synth via a standard midi cable and play those sounds as well.

Why this is a great opportunity: Guitarists who aren't familiar with a keyboard can now easily add a wide variety of sounds to their recordings with the You Rock Midi Guitar. There are a ton of great sounds in the built in synth engine, and the ability to expand via midi to tap into your other synth engines makes the sonic possibilities limitless. The touch sensitive fingerboard allows you to tap notes as well as fingerpick or strum notes on the strings. There are a bunch of other great options as well including note correction, which helps players who are just earning their wings. If you wish you had a way to control the soft synths in your DAW, your wish has been granted.

I feel your pain...almost caved in on JTV59's on eBay (new) a few times myself!  I think those deals will pop up many times in the future, so I don't feel so bad.

Review

QuoteCanon Vixia HF R100 enthusiast (SE Carver — 05/05/2010)
Since purchasing and using the Canon Vixia HF R100 (search c925-1520) for a month since 4/8/2010, my opinion has moved from doubtful skeptic to delighted enthusiast. I am a non-professional user who has occasionally used several video machines(beta, vhs, 8mm, mini-DV, Hard Disk, DVD, and now HD to SD chip) to capture life events (gatherings, celebrations, outings, sports events, documentary of people, animals, plants, stage plays, and travel). Except for cell snapshots, The HFR100 is now my ONE camera for both video & stills. Initially, the factory setting for video disappointed. Once the Camera was configured to HD CINE 24 frame mode, the results became much more clear, vivid, detailed & acceptable. While slow panning The DIGIC DV III processor and 2.39 megapixel HD CMOS process images fast enough to create clear individual frames without the choppiness that earlier, slower HD cams had (shots from a moving car with the Vixia actually produced some usable frames and clips). The 20x(40-800 mm 35mm eq.), glass, canon-quality lens is not threaded to accept threaded filters or wide/tele extensions, but is recessed about 1 cm behind the camera face so it is both protected and somewhat hooded from surrounding light sources. An automatic, drop-down into the cam, lens protector operates when the cam is switched on/off. This is a great feature for protecting the lens while being quick ready. The dynamic image stabilization worked well out to 20X and was amazingly steady for videoing while walking at wide angle settings. The digital zoom (oversampling feature beyond 20X) may be set to 80X or 400X and in this camera may be good enough to produce some useful images in these ranges. The Instant autofocus was superb. Focus was always very close to being on or slightly deep into the field. There was no "dancing-focus" or movements toward the wrong end of the focusing scale whatsoever. The manual focus automatically magnified in the LCD panel, aiding focus. The high quality LCD panel was very sharp. Its readability in direct sunlight was enhanced with the backlight turned on. The automatic face detection autofocus did a fantastic job of keeping the focal plane on faces even in a sports action environment. This also worked somewhat to keep wildflower blossoms in focus. Menus and controls are fairly intuitive, but the disk based (also available for download feom the canon web site) .pdf instruction manual should be read to access all of the feature-rich options this unit offers. I normally carry the camera out and off. This camera starts, focuses, rapid zooms and readies itself very quickly (about 3 sec) so it is hard to miss a shot. Additionally the new, pre-record feature carries 3 sec of video to add in front of your clips to make it difficult to miss shots as long as the camera is on and pointed in the right direction. The Smart AUTO setting works very well for point-and-shoot capture in most any condition. For difficult environments there are 10 manual modes that can produce great results in extreme conditions. I was disappointed with the low-light results in auto mode, but in the low light mode I was astounded to see what crisp COLOR images could be made in with such little light. An on-camera light is not present nor needed with this camera unless substantial low-light action shots are desired. Campfire light, flashlight, or moonlight are plenty adequate light sources. Starlight is usable with a bipod and no panning. The stereo sound is bright, adjustable and very accurate. The wind dampening filter was minimal - not adequate. I have been experimenting with sponge materials to attach over the mics. The camera records a low decibel irregular low sound (something like a 16mm film sprocket). It is noticeable when played back at high volumes, and might be objectionable if listening closely for something near the same bandwidth in a low noise recording. I found it tolerable, but I'm hoping this will be corrected in later production. The battery lasted about two hours. By keeping the camera off, I was able to get through a full day of taking portraits and snapshots on one battery. The day I accidentally left the camera on, I had a failure, but was able to charge it quickly and adequately with a car inverter. A back-up battery would be a wise precaution. On about 38 hrs of experimentation, camera set at highest resolutions, and including several hrs. of picking "snapshots" off of 220 video clips. I have 690 HD stills and have used 6.16G of a Patriot class6 16.1G SD chip. There are plenty of connectors (mini USB (use the included cable with this camera), mini HDMI (no cable included), component out (cable included), power in (115V adapter included)(battery is small(15x32x45mm) and recharged in the camera, a switchable 1/8"(3.5mm) pin headphone/ a/v out jack ((1/8 to (3) RCA) cable is included), and an external mic port. There is no hotshoe. Advances- on an Alaskan Cruise a few years ago I quit using a still camera, because the high zoom of the Video Cam got us close to the action. The snapshots we could pull were tolerable for computer viewing, but inadequate for blow-ups. While watching glaciers "calve", after the "crack", the challenge was to get the vid cam on and focused in the exact right direction before the ice sloughed into the sea. The canon Vixia HF R100 would have been up to the task. It's fast to start and the resulting images are HD quality. USAGE- I set the camera for highest resolution, power saver, and keep it off until shooting. This camera will easily fit in a pocket or purse. I normally keep attached a 1 5/8 lb. 10"- 54" collapsible tripod. This added weight stabilizes the light (12 oz. with battery & chip) cam and improves results. The collapsible nature of the tripod with one, two, or three legs variously extended, greatly enhanced results. At full zoom I found it difficult, even with the tripod, to take a still directly without shaking the camera. I find it much more effective to pull an image during playback while hooked to a monitor, using the snapshot feature. Playback speeds are 1/8 or 1/4 (a remote control is not available with this canon series), so it takes a little effort to find the best frame, but I find the result far more satisfying than trying to catch the perfect still. Not everyone has the "photographer's eye" or the ability to catch the perfect frame of an event with a still, but most can select the best frame out of a video clip. Pixels are: 1,040,000 optical zoom dynamic image stabilization, 1,560,000 image stabilization off, 1,560,000 16:9 still, 1,730,000 4:3 still. While not exactly professionally acceptable, the 1 meg images will be acceptable for most casual user uses. Few video cams, costing much more, can offer better resolution off of a video clip than the HFR100. What I like most about this camera is that it is small- very easy to carry every day. It is fast to prepare itself to shoot very good video. The third and most important thing is that the resulting video/still is very good. This camera does basic videography very well, and has a host of features to handle difficult light, movement or color situations even better. This camera has come a long way toward being my perfect camera, and is state of the industry in several critical areas. I kept it, use it, and recommend it. It has quality features and no weaknesses. -Happy Hunting- 5/5/2010

Today, I purchased  two of these Canon R100's  ($230 with tax+shipping)  - as I'm always doing live band shoots with 2 cameras rolling, and growing tired of the one hour per tape firewire capture sequence in my production workflow with my old pair of Canon HV-20's. These get the job done for my needs - I use a SignVideo XLR Pro to get FOH board feeds into my wide shot cam.

Fender Mustang Floor $175

QuoteInsanely Stupidly Mind-staggeringly Great
by Scott May from Chicago, IL
May 8, 2012
Music Background: Pro Musician
They don't have enough stars to rate this amazing piece of kit.
And no I don't work for Fender (I work for Hammond Organ)
I've gone through a ton of pedalboards by just about every company-the cheap ones and the pricey ones-none have come even CLOSE to this brilliant instrument. I haven't been able to stump it yet, from fire-breathing crunch to wispy gossamer threads. The thing is built like a tank, and has all the right features-If I had to carp at anything it would be the miserable wall wart instead of a real AC cord, but that's the only fly in the ointment, and that ain't much.

The switches are logical, (And spaced perfectly for my big clodhopper snuffleupagus feet). The controls are intuitive, and everything that's under the hood is stuff you can use. This may sound like a negative, but Fender didn't fill this thing with all kinds of crap that you'll never use, just to "up" the feature quota. It's a workingman's tool. It took Fender a long time to come out with a multi-pedal, and they did it right.

I'm not talking about specific tones, 'cos everyone will have a different approach, but I found it easy to find mine. I keep coming back to the word "logical"-There is almost NO learning curve in adapting to the Fender way and making your own tones from scratch.

My Wife thought I was crazy (not far off) 'cos she kept hearing me yell THANK YOU! every time I discovered one of the common sense ways Fender handled different procedures, etc. In ease of operation, the Rolands, Voxes, Zooms, etc. just can't hang. And there is no bespoke jargon you have to learn to work this thing-all the parameters use terms that you know-and a few you might not (but those are technical-speak and NOT some cutelsy crap that Fender made up).

And unlike many Japanese products, the Manual is written in ENGLISH ENGLISH. You have to download it, but it's worth it.

The Fuse software that comes with it is a little harder to grok at first, but once you get the swing of it, it's very cool

So I give the Mustang Floor about a hundred stars. Yeah, it's THAT good!!

Update:
These are now sold out -

I got a call from my Sales agent today at Sweetwater, re-assuring that my Mustang Floor was just leaving the shipping department and heading my way, and he also told me this $175 price was a result of a mistake, and not to expect to see that low price again anytime soon.

QuotetHANKS FOR THE HEADS UP. I GOT THE SAMSUNG IPOD THING YOU POSTED TODAY

Yes - My Samsung MM-D470D  just arrived yesterday, and as soon as my Bass player saw it and heard it - he ordered one too. it runs on 14V DC and he wants to use it in his camper.

Its a great little unit, plays ALL media I can throw at it,  has an MP-3 creator to USB Thumb drive function from any audio you feed it,  and hook up a 1920 x 1080 Monitor with an HDMI input and you have a nice multimedia center that plays and upscales DVDs, CDs. MP3 disks, Audio files on USB drives.
The only thing it does not do is play Blu-Ray


I plugged in my iPhone4 and was remotely navigating my iTunes Audio, and it charges the iPhone too.

With the Remote  - It can set A>B repeat loop points mid song on CD's too - for learning songs.

And it has a stereo line in  -  feed the output from VG-99 / GR-55 headphone jack and you have a decent little stereo amp for practice.

Not bad for $59.99 - its still $250 at many places.

I already own the Bactrack version with microphone, but just ordered a couple of these today.

The benefit is that these allow me to obtain dry isolated instrument recordings of my live shows and band rehearsals, with minimal gear set up.

Feed the D.I Out of your amp into one of these BackTracks (or insert between your instrument and Amp input) and hit record on each Backtrack, and capture dry recordings of your band mates.

Then after the gig/rehearsal - I can retrieve all these back tracks and import the wave files into a DAW and sync them all up and now I have a multitrack recording of the band, without the setup time or fuss of snakes, cables,  multitrack recorders, etc.

Damn, I'm really sorry I missed this one.  Out of stock now.  I just read the product description and this is something I've wished I've had for years; didn't know anyone was manufacturing it. They're running $50 and up (way up) everywhere they're still available.  I might take my chances on one anyway.

Scratch that - just found it at sweetwater for $30.  Close enough.  Thanks for the heads up.

Get the one with the Mic - it helps as a reference to align tracks later.

In my situation, I will have the BackTrack with Mic on my rig, the BackTrack with no Mic on my Bass players rig, and a 2nd backTrack with no Mic on the spare amp we bring - for those situations when a guest guitarist / harmonica player sits in with the band. I also have a Zoom H2N placed near the Drums, to capture those.

Remember we are a pure instrumental Surf band that can play 3 hour gigs at local events / bars.

Later I can import all the separate Wave files from all the above recorders into a DAW, Line up the tracks  - and have a good multitrack recording.

Too late.   :o

For my purposes, I'm not sure it's worth the extra $20 anyway.  I can always plug a mic into the input if I need to, or maybe buy the other version down the road.  What you're describing would be excellent for getting backing tracks together for personal practice between band sessions, but I'm mainly thinking in terms of hanging this off the direct out on the back of an amp (KPA or GR55, specifically) so if I stumble on a cool riff I can move on, fly it into Ableton Live at a later date, and maybe get a new song going.

I am not too keen on investing in software right now, except if I find a really exceptional deal. The EZDrummer/Superior v2 bundle for $130 qualified, the same for $180 doesn't. (I want to upgrade to both Cubase 7 and Nuendo 6, and that's my software budget at the moment.)

Actually I am looking at the Line 6 Backtrack recorder. Is it only the non-mic version that is being discontinued, or it is both mic and non-mic versions? If the mic version is also being discontinues, I might wait to see what they well replace it with - assuming that they will in fact replace it.

Alas, for me, it's just not a good time.  Wife's already been very patient about me pouring money into GK strats and upgrade parts this year.  :)

IT has one minor flaw - near the 1st, 2nd fret there is evidence of some separation between the fretboard and the neck .

I buy many guitars online, and this type damage is very common - and easily fixed with careful use of applying small amount of super glue and wet sanding.

Quoteare you going to keep it?  I would wager you could do a lot worse!

Yes - I'm going to keep it  - I feel very at home with this guitar already -
This Godin xTSA has great tone and sustain right out of the box. I'm extremely picky about neck profiles, and i love how this Godin xTSA plays.   I grew up playing 1950's and 1960's Gibsons in High School in Chicago, and older I get I find my earliest concepts about what makes a good guitar still hold up 40+ years later. 
I  prefer fatter / wider necks. (always wanted a 1998 Fender Jeff Beck Strat, or a Danny Gatten re-issue '52 Tele)

The Neck plays a big part in a guitar's Tone!
 
I find it very annoying that most guitar manufacturers today get too focused on " Lets make all our  guitar necks thinner and narrower! Because thats what the kids all rave about in the forums!"

I hate guitars with  1 5/8" Nut width.
If my fat fingers cant play a first position A7 chord cleanly because the string spacing at the NUT is too narrow, it goes on ebay.


And I prefer a guitar with 1 inch (25.4mm) thickness under fret # 1 all the way up until it joins the body. Thats a tough spec to locate on any production guitar, used to be reserved for Warmoth Necks we used when i was at Valley Arts Guitar - or a 1952 Tele has that type neck profile.

I will tolerate 7/8" (.875") (22.5mm) neck thickness, but "thin 60's profile" 0.75" (19mm) thick necks are very uncomfortable for me to play for extended 4 hour gigs. I will get shooting pains up my forearm if the neck is too thin.  (No Ibanez JEM Wizards or EBMM Petrucci's for me) 

And I never understood what folks mean by "this guitar has a fast neck!"

With a good setup and properly dressed frets, I can play as fast as I could ever play on a 1955 Gibson Les Paul, or a '52 Tele- which are known to have "baseball bat" necks. 

 
I actually might order a second xTSA for backup since the these are currently back down to $665 today at Amazon.

Ive played Godin xTSA's at NAMM for years, but the examples they bring to NAMM tend to have thinner Neck profiles compared to this Amazon Godin xTSA. I like it better than any of my Line 6 Tyler Variax guitars.

Seriously, man, you're killing me with this.  :D

I always thought the XTSA's voicing had the warmth of a Les Paul (or similar) with the stop-on-a-dime agility of a strat - the latter on account of the bolt-on construction.  I remember the pickups being really versatile as well, but it looks like Godin is doing something different now.  Back then they used Seymour Duncan-branded pickups which they said were variations of Custom Customs voiced specifically for this guitar.  (Ergo "Custom Custom Customs" LOL.)  Now the pickups are Godin-branded, so I wonder if Godin is winding them themselves in their own factory, and if so, whether the specs have changed at all.  Anyway, great guitar, especially at that crazy price.
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: mbenigni on December 13, 2012, 06:56:40 AM
I think I found a clue re: the difference in pickups.  My old guitar was actually an LGXT-SA, which if I understand correctly, is from a slightly more premium line of Godins.  Confusing...
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: Elantric on December 13, 2012, 08:55:06 AM
The LGXT, LGSA are the premium versions with carved top and binding on the body.

the XtSA is the lower cost cousin and  used to be $950 ballpark street price

But the RMC electronics in this guitar would cost you $600 alone, very clean and much less noise than Ghost.

Comparing both Godin LG and XT models , I tend to like the xTSA a bit better, mostly because the Neck is thicker.

The Godin locking Tuners are really good too, more precise than my other locking tuners (Planet Waves, Sperzel, or GFS/Gotoh)

And the stiff acting tremolo remains stable for palm muting. This 2012 model xTSA is better than prior generations.

I'm installing a pair of GFS Rectotron liverpools in my 2nd xTSA, might eventually go with a pair a TV Jones Filtertrons  - as I really want to get tones in the ballpark of my 2005 Gretsch Brian Setzer 6120

Also having two identical guitars allows for A/B comparison of Tone changes due to hardware upgrades.

Agreed.  I love the self-cropping feature on the Planet Waves, but as actual tuners they're a little hit or miss.

You are welcome  - Im really enjoying  mine

FWIW - its crucial to set the GR-55's GK Type to "Piezo R"  - when using these Godins with RMC pickup or else the Synth Vol pot on the guitar does not work.

been watching the Godin lgxt price.  Isn't it interesting how their market research people (or whomever) throws it out at $580 a week ago then it rises to the current $952 today!  Are MORE people going to bite as it goes higher or are they expecting some kind of pent up demand/frustration at not having gotten it earlier or ?? Can't figure their strategy.  Wonder if just after Christmas it will drop?

Sorry I meant the Godin xtsa (too many Godin model letter/numbers goin' round my brain).
Still looking for the Godin Multiac Nylon SA, the one with the 1 7/8" nut and 16" radiused fretboard; very sweet.
Tried the Nylon SA Concert which has a deeper more resonant chambered body but is only avail with a full 2" classical nut width and virtually flat fretboard.
I'm so hungry for another piezo 6 string that I was willing to go with the xtsa at $580 but now glad I didn't cause my fingerpickin' style need a wider neck.
Cheers and Merry Christmas everyone!

Hello all!

Figured I'd make my first post a deal post.  JRR Shop currently has 20% off new and B-stock Kemper Profiling Amps.  Never purchased anything from that particular vendor, but if someone can confirm they're reputable, that's a pretty good deal.  Just use the code "hardware20".  A B-stock comes out to $1550.74 after tax.

Works as a Protools interface too.

Has a Guitar Input and a TRS Mic input too.


I picked one up on Saturday when the price was $167 with free shipping.

Typical Amazon - the price of this item is fluctuating each day lately between $150 and $350

Their is a rumor that with the recent activities of Avid selling off the M-Audio division to Numark / Alesis - that future support may soon be dropped for this model, but at $167 i could not resist.

And if you string it up as a right handed guitar, Left handed Strats do Sound different (Bridge PU is a different Angle )
Hendrix could afford to play any Strat, yet he remained with the Right handed version, for very specific reasons that were crucial to his technique.

In 1981 i discussed this with Stevie Ray Vaughn, when i set up his Strat at Valley Arts.
Stevie Ray Vaughan - Third Stone from the Sun (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMW0t17Ft5o#)


And a few other pros know this too. A Left Handed Strat Headstock Strung up as a Right handed guitar, will actually stay in tune better due to the headstock. Above the nut, the upper strings are shorter

It is a cool look (thanks largely in part to Hendrix) and I've always advocated the opposite bridge p/u slant, but I could never do with the reduced fingerboard access that comes with having the upper horn on the bottom.  A righty guitar with a reversed headstock is always good (a la the Yngwie signature strat), as is a pickup mod (a la everything Hamer did for Steve Stevens).

Overview
What It Is: The Korg MINI KAOSS PAD 2 is a handheld effects processor that you connect to a sound source (turntables, a keyboard, or whatever) via the 1/8'' input, pick one of 100 effects programs, and simply touch the MINI KAOSS PAD 2 to apply tempo-synced effects including delays, reverbs, vinyl breaks and ducking compression. You can now play MP3 or WAV files stored on a microSD/SDHC card (sold separately) right from the MINI KAOSS PAD 2, making it even more versatile than ever.

Why this is a great opportunity: In addition to inheriting powerful effect programs from the flagship Kaoss Pad KP3 and the innovative Kaoss Pad Quad, the Mini Kaoss Pad 2 provides an MP3/WAV player, making it the first Kaoss effects product that is self-contained. You can use it as a playback device, or process an entire mix, a single instrument, or even a vocal with Kaoss effects. This is a fun easy to use tool that will never get old!

If you wanna spend a little more cash, Sweetwater is running a deal on the Eleven Rack for 699 with Xpac and 4 VSTs, plus they have a bunch of artist exclusive presets loaded onboard.  Also, you get Pro-Tools 10. It's really worth the extra fifty bucks or so.  Running my VG-99 and 11R together has completely cured my GAS for at least a few years (other then a looper, hehe).

Oh I am sorry that I just saw this last series of posts about the Eleven Rack.

I have one word of advice: Don't. The only people who should get it are those who are already using Pro Tools. I looked into this a while ago and the problems with Eleven Rack can be summed up quite succinctly: you need Pro Tools to offload presets and to use the editor. With what seemed to me to be Pro Tools' very finicky hardware requirements, it is a risky investment, for a Windows user at any rate. And as I recall from the research I did (quite a while ago at this point) Avid seems to have been hinting about an editor/librarian that does not require Pro Tools for years now but don't expect it any time soon. In fact, don't expect it at all until it actually gets here.

Also, I don't seem to think that USD$639 is really all that good of a price. It's a low price, as I recall, but *not* the kind of low price that should make you buy it if you were not already planning to do so. And actually, just checking eBay right now, you can get that deal, USD$638 and lower, from many authorized dealers there. And you can get a used Eleven Rack too but check on Avid's position on transferring software ownership, or buy a used Eleven Rack with an unopened software bundle.

If any information that I have posted here has become outdated since I did my research, I will be interested to know.

I own an Eleven Rack and used it on stage exclusively with my GR55 ( until I got my Kemper) 8) I'll be honest I think the user interface Is very intuitive and very easy to use. Never thought about an Editer. I only wish my Kemper was as easy and it isn't bad. And we all know what a "Debacle" the Roland UI is. Paul

Well now that is worth knowing and, depending on the reports of users concerning the editor's stability and usability (I did not look into it yet) it would be enough to make me change my opinion about getting one. If I had known about it when I was looking into it - and I am kind of embarrassed to see that such an editor exists and I did not find it - then I would have bought one. In fact, if I hadn't recently bought, well, a bunch of expensive things, and then gotten ambushed by a vet bill (she's doing very well after the surgery, thank you,  but the biopsy revealed a carcinoma, sadly), I might start looking for one right now.

Quote from: Elantric on February 11, 2013, 10:26:29 AMBut Protools 10 works too.

Yes it does work... if and when it works. If not, not. I have been told it is very finicky running under Windows. Why would I want to risk buying hardware that
1) might require me to build a new computer to Pro Tools' specs instead of to mine when I do not even need a new computer in the first place and my current setup does everything I need it to do; and
2) might require me to learn a new and complex app when I am satisfied by my current DAW, or
3) should I choose to stay with my current DAW - and I would indeed choose to do so - I would still need to use Pro Tools to edit, save, and load presets?
To me that is simply not a sensible course of action. I'd sooner get a Pod HD, or even - if I am feeling more generous and prodigal than could possibly be necessary or wise - an AX-FX II, as it would ultimately interfere with my musical and computing life far less than embarking on any course of action requiring Pro Tools.

1) Your caps lock key is broken.
2) So I guess that
  a) you will never have to save your presets;
  b) you will never have to reload your presets;
  c) you will never want to use any presets that you might download from the net,
  d) there is sufficient on-board user-preset space to last you forever; and
3) Since you have had no problems in over a year and a hundred gigs, we can assume that you will never have any problems, and that the unit is failure-proof, theft-proof, and will last forever.
Now that is impressive.

Well, I, for one, am eagerly awaiting my Eleven Rack. I'm presuming I can use Pro Tools if and when I need to use the editor capabilities it offers, and then use the hardware in a standalone capacity afterwards.

I've installed Protools 10 on both a 2011 Lenovo W520 laptop with Intel I7 running Windows 7 64 and
a 2011 MacMini with Intel I7 running OSX Lion 10.7.4

Runs great. The Eleven Rack with Protools bundle includes all the latest Eleven Rack hardware upgrades, and an I-LOK key.
http://www.ilok.com/ (http://www.ilok.com/) - which allows you to install Protools 10 on multiple computers. Protools 10 requires the ILok to run, but you may use third party Audio interfaces  - no longer restricted to Avid or M-Audio.
FWIW -  the complete Full version of Protools 10 runs $699 alone if you buy at the Avid Online Store.
http://www.avid.com/US/products/pro-tools-software/ (http://www.avid.com/US/products/pro-tools-software/)
Sorry you had problems with Protools - but it is the industry standard and best DAW to use when sharing files with pros , and union work.   

Also  - I never said this

@Elantric: accept my apology for attributing whippinpost91850's quote to you. Since the forum's editor applet is so poor, multiquotes require various workarounds and more editing; I neglected to replace your name with his; that is to say, I did not think that it was your quote. I have gone back and edited my original post to reflect this.

*************

Back on topic:

Pro Tools is the industry standard, and the Eleven Rack might have a very intuitive hardware interface, but you know what? I have better things to do than learn how to use yet more apps and yet more menu structures for new gear, one after another, because some corporate pig thinks that he can use this tired corporate ploy to get me to use  his company's stuff by essentially giving me no choice in the matter. But here's my choice: I am not going to buy it. There are other devices in the same category and class, and each one has its own specific and unique capabilities. But Eleven Rack is "uniquely unique" in how its manufacturer wants to use it to make my life more difficult. I understand that to Avid my time and energy is of no value whatsoever, but it does have value to *me* all the same. So I'm going to conserve it to the best of my ability.

(You know, I've actually just changed my mind. Irrespective of the availability of the freeware java editor, I am not going to buy an Eleven Rack. Which is not a big deal because I have not bought any Avid products since they absorbed Wizoo and refused to let them release a patch for WizooVerb's multicore bug.)

  I just want a very simple editor. I don't and won't buy, install, and learn - in even a superficial way - Pro Tools so that I can use their Eleven Rack Editor: whatever time it would cost me, even if it cost me mere minutes, would be more productively and profitably spent on doing anything else. Really. Anything. Life is too short, and installing and learning software is not the same as making music. I am not scared of learning things, and don't mind doing so, but there has to be some rational purpose for it Avid's gratuitous and unnecessary attempt to force me to become a Pro Tools user does not qualify.

As for the front-panel LED, just... no. No. I am not going to sit with the manual learning and memorizing the available parameters and their locations. No matter how intuitive the interface is, if almost all the parameters are hidden at any given moment, as they necessarily must be when dealing with a little LED window (and they are ALL "little" when compared to a computer monitor) and if I haven't studied the manual to learn of their existence in the first place, I can't "intuitively" find them. If I can not have, for any complex piece of kit, a computer editor with a GUI that lets me see vast categories of parameters on the screen at once, then I am going to find something else to do with my time and money. (This is basically in response to Whippinpost91850 comment about the intuitiveness of the Eleven Rack's OS.)

Of course, since there *is* a computer editor for the Eleven Rack, this is all somewhat moot. But only somewhat. Because that editor was done as a public service by someone probably not unlike Gumtown of this forum. But that someone had to spend time and energy making good the lack of an editor from Avid is unacceptable.


One more point. If I correctly recall, Pro Tools will only run on Intel cpu's. I was very concerned about this point when I originally researched the Eleven Rack, and now, having read on some tech news forums of Intel's plans to lock out add-in graphics boards and system memory, and generally lock down its chips and chipsets, the idea of being forced to use Intel is looking even worse today than it did a year ago. (I advance Intel's chip lockdown plans with some diffidence: they are not completely clear to me.) If I am faced with a choice between building a computer able to either run Pro Tools for the sake of a computer editor because Avid wants to force me to use Pro Tools, or able to run current-generation video games at very high resolutions and framerates, I'll build the gaming machine because it will run almost any other DAW flawlessly. Why Avid can't code for AMD chipsets is a complete mystery to me; almost everyone else seems to be able to do it.

So, the end result is that I got the guitar for $299.

It should be here by the end of the week.  SWEEEEEET

Jump on it guys!!!!!

This popular FiiO D3 DAC Box has both optical and RCA SPDIF Inputs and supports 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz 96kHz, 192kHz - and has decent audio specs  - should work well with either VG-99 or KPA SPDIF Out. $33

QuoteUpdate - received and tested the FiiO D3 and Im happy to say that it is very well built and it works perfectly with the spdif out of the vg99. So now we essentially have an extra stereo [or 2 x mono if you want] chain that can go to your outboard gear. I am running it straight from the COSM A [after alt-tuning etc] and then into pedals etc before mixing together with the vg99 etc at a small behringer 10 channel mixer. So... I know that this could also be done with the sub outs of the vg99, but for some reason i want to leave those free for flexibility.

Did i mention this thing is made well? for 30-odd euros! It is tiny, metal cased and it is powered by micro-usb from a tiny wall-wart [or in my case sharing from the same power as my ipad and iphone]. It works as soon as its plugged in. As far as i can tell, sound quality is excellent, but there would likely be a delay of a few microseconds due to the DA conversion so it needs to be processed before mixing back in with the vg99 signal or else you will get some phasing...

Just a heads up for Fishman Tripleplay buyers - The FTP comes with Free "basic" versions of SampleTank, Amplitube CA, T-Rax CS.

These are basically identical to these "Free" versions here:
http://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/sampletank/index.php?pp=sampletank-2-xl-versions (http://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/sampletank/index.php?pp=sampletank-2-xl-versions)

http://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/trcs/ (http://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/trcs/)


But look out for the price of each "Plug in" that enables new features and requires a separate "Gear Credit" purchase - to enable features, you could easily spend over $1000 with IK Multimedia.

After spending time with the Tripleplay, you will see the value in owning the full versions of these IK Multimedia products. if purchased separately as upgrades, these VSTi plugins would cost $$$

But from now until April 15, 2013

IK Multimedia's Total Studio 3 Bundle is  on sale for $199 (Normally $399)

I was very interested and my initial thought was that this (the Total Studio 3 Bundle) could be a very worthwhile purchase, but fortunately looked at it a bit more closely, and came to the conclusion that the "Custom Shop" angle makes AmpliTube, T-Rax, and CSR to be pretty nearly scam-ware, as far as I am concerned. I do not think that the rest of the software in the bundle has this "Custom Shop" swindle going on, but I wouldn't be surprised if they figured out a way to infect it in a future update.

The Custom Shop is a new gimmick which means there is an in app "store". To purchase upgrades.

The basic Custom shop versions of Sampletank, Amplitube, T-Rax are free. These are different than the Total Studio 3 Bundle  versions.
But effective earlier this year, all versions of Sampletank, Amplitube, T-Rax also include an in app "store".

Gibson has a history of innovation that is unmatched in the guitar world, and the first Les Pauls of the 1950s were the most versatile guitars ever created. It's only natural that Gibson USA would continue to push the envelope for power, tone, and performance flexibility, and the Les Paul Studio makes the perfect platform to play it forward into the 21st century. Welcome the Les Paul Studio Limited, a guitar born out of the great tradition of the original Les Paul Standard, equipped with the latest incarnations of Robot Guitar tuning capabilities, Chameleon Tone Technology, and the massive connectivity potential of Gibson's latest "Blue Dot" Robot Interface Pack (RIP), included. All this, and the Les Paul Studio Limited is still a descendant of the timeless classic in every regard, with traditional Les Paul tonewoods, specs and playability, two of Gibson's most revered magnetic pickups, plus a piezo-loaded bridge for acoustic tones, and the great look of its Fireburst Finish in hand-sprayed, high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer.

Even if you never make use of the guitar's cutting-edge tonal capabilities, the Les Paul Studio Limited is still a great Les Paul in the traditional sense, with a bundle of thoughtful upgrades that improve its performance without taking it the least bit out of the realm of its iconic predecessors. The Les Paul Studio Limited is made with the time-tested tonewood pairing of an unbound carved Grade-A maple top and mahogany body, the latter chambered to reduce weight and enhance resonance. Its glued-in neck is made from solid mahogany, carved to a slim, fast early '60s profile that measures .800" at the 1st fret and .875" at the 12th. Its unbound fingerboard is made from a single piece of rich, brown Granadillo, a prized Central American hardwood that's non-porous, straight grained, very dense, and has a ringing warm tap-tone that is well balanced. This gorgeous wood provides a durable and sultry feeling bed for the 22 medium-jumbo frets, while maintaining a traditional look and playing experience. The Les Paul Studio Limited's 24 3/4 inch scale length, 12 inch fingerboard radius, and 1 11/16 inch width at the nut retain all the familiar and superbly playable characteristics of the traditional Les Paul that have proven themselves through more than six decades of great music.

In the hardware department the Les Paul Studio Limited truly excels. A set of Gibson's revolutionary, upgraded Robot Tuners as first introduced on the Robot Guitar, offers unprecedented automated tuning capabilities via the guitar's Master Control Knob (MCK). You can now access any preset tuning in just one second, which means you can realistically change tunings in the middle of a song, if needed. What's more, the tuners are now automatically engaged to operate both electronically or individually by hand. A PLEK-cut black Tefzel nut keeps the strings hitch free, while a Robot stopbar bridge at the body end locks it all down tight for maximum sustain. The guitar's Tune-o-matic style bridge offers a nod to Gibson tradition and innovation of years past, while hiding a major secret weapon in the form of its piezo-pickup saddles. Routed to the controls via a blendable rotary potentiometer is the three-way Toggle-Pot switch with its own onboard studio-quality active LP-Z preamplifier that allows for a stronger and more natural acoustic guitar sound, the piezo signal yields a realistic acoustic-guitar sound that can be used on its own or blended in any desired proportion with the guitar's traditional magnetic pickup tone.

Of course the pickups and electronics set is where the Les Paul Studio Limited really takes off into the stratosphere. A hot-wound, noise-free P-90H in the neck position and a hot BurstBucker 3 in the bridge offer the full range of tones available from Gibson's most popular pickups of all time, providing the warmth and clarity of vintage P-90 and PAF humbucker pickups, with added grind and sustain for contemporary lead tones when required.

I ordered a neck from the GFS Factory buyout several months ago. Nice piece for the price, comparable to a Squier Affinity Strat neck. Dressed the frets and it was good to go. But be ready for some frustration when trying to order, as every item in the sale is unique (only one available) and they do not remove items as they sell them, so about 80% of the items I have tried to buy are already sold. They display on the main page, but when you select the item to check details it comes up "sold out". I mentioned this to them back when I bought the neck, but have seen no improvement in the website.

I'm a bit prejudiced - I already own a JTV-59 and JTV-69, and use both in my latest band where I need no nonsense point and shoot gear that does what I need. I love my Tyler Variax's - After I installed a Bigsby B7 on the JTV-59, and SuperVee Tremsetter on the JTV-69.

The JTV-89 is more geared to "metal heads", with its  Ibanez Jem Wizard Thin Neck profile. Not my cup of tea ("Too Thin Necks" give me severe muscle cramps in my forearm after 20 minutes of playing.)

But the interesting aspect is buying the JTV-89 at $560 via the Music123 PriceMatch  - then gutting it for the Tyler Variax parts.

Combine with the RackVax GK 13 pin Adapter board -

Not that difficult really - its all done via the white connector (with two gray cables heading to the bridge) on the far upper right in pic below
Swap the 6 piezo string signals at the 8 pin 2mm JST Connector (same as we do with the GK-3 PU connector) and change the strings - (and install a left hand Nut, re-intonate the bridge saddles -  plenty of travel on the JTV-89 /59 Bridge) then play it like Hendrix played a Right handed Strat.

Not sure whether to post this in the speakers thread, the KPA thread, or the Deal Alert thread... guess I'll start here.  GC was blowing out these little Kustom mini-PA's for $69 as a "Flash Deal" this weekend:

http://www.guitarcenter.com/Kustom-PW50-Personal-PA-System-106388085-i1934071.gc (http://www.guitarcenter.com/Kustom-PW50-Personal-PA-System-106388085-i1934071.gc)

The regular price isn't too much higher ($99) but Amazon is still looking for ~$150 for this or equivalent product*.   In any case, I bought one on Saturday, figuring for $70 it would serve some kind of utility around the house.  I put it under my KPA, and in my opinion it sounds AMAZING.  So I got on the phone on Sunday afternoon and managed to order two more at the Flash Deal price.  Basically, super-convenient speaker cabs for the price of an effects pedal!  If you stumble on one at this price, I would highly recommend it.

Astonishing what current technology can deliver in a package this size!  Pic attached of what has to be the coolest practice amp ever.  :)


*There seems to be some confusion between the PA50 and the PW50 variation rebranded for PowerWerks, maybe?  GC email blast advertised PW50, but the unit I bought is actually marked PA50.  The two I ordered on Sunday were listed as PW50 in their computer, so we'll see.

Post by: mbenigni on July 29, 2013, 10:22:09 AM
QuoteNo guitar neck profiles are more distinguishable than the neck profiles employed on the Gibson models of today. The more traditional '50s neck profile on the SG Special is the thicker, rounder profile, emulating the neck shapes found on the iconic 1958 and 1959 Les Paul Standards. The neck is machined in Gibson's rough mill using wood shapers to make the initial cuts. But once the fingerboard gets glued on, the rest--including the final sanding--is done by hand. That means there are no two necks with the exact same dimensions. So while it still has the basic characteristics of its respective profile, each neck will be slightly different, with a distinct but traditional feel.

Weird marketing copy here.  I can totally respect the value of a hand-crafted instrument, but playing up inconsistency in neck profile as "most distinguishable" seems a little off-kilter to me, especially when you're trying to sell a guitar on the internet, as in "no idea what might show up..."  Every guitar being unique is one thing, but having more variance off the line than your competition?  Not a selling point IMO.

A rare case of truth in advertising, and a healthy dose of "spin"?

they also have extension cables:

With Amazon, because I have "Amazon Prime" One cable is $9.09 with free 2 day shipping+ $0.80 tax = $9.89 delivered

At MonoPrice its $15.77 delivered.

If I order 10 cables  - its $98.90 at Amazon

But at MonoPrice its $89.98 - so the savings do kick in at larger orders.

You're absolutely right, the shipping can very easily offset the price tag on the item. I always wait until I have at least a $40 order before using Monoprice.

On the power cable, the Monoprice cable is 16AWG, Amazon is 18AWG. Monoprice did not have a 25 foot 18AWG cable, they switch to 16AWG  for anything over 15 feet long. I really don't know at what point switching to heavier cable actually makes a difference. Do you have guidelines for length/AWG/current draw to help determine when to switch to heavier cable? I've always just grabbed the heaviest ones from retired PC servers to add to my box of cables, figuring the heavier wire was better (aside from the actual weight of the cable when packing up  :D)

I do think the MonoPrice cables are better @ 16AWG

I'll give a report when this arrives next week - Been playing a lot of All Acoustic gigs and using my Line6 Variax Acoustic 700 - (Side note: So Called "All Acoustic gigs" actually still means hauling amplification, Ive been using a Roland AC-33 or AC-60 with great results) and this Antonio Hermosa AH-50 seems like a poor mans Godin, and also will also be easier to lend to my girlfriend who is learning to play guitar - (nylon strings easier for newbies)

It arrived and its a good guitar, Excellent Frets. Very Light! and perfect for teaching guitar to my girlfriend.
Its a bolt on Neck - which is actually a benefit. The Action was slightly too high, but was easily fixed by removing the neck,  inserting a small shim to slightly increase the Neck  / Body angle, and now it plays like a dream

Details on Neck Shimming
http://www.fishman.com/software/tripleplay/help/tripleplay_tut10.pdf (http://www.fishman.com/software/tripleplay/help/tripleplay_tut10.pdf)
Another pleasing aspect is the built in Tuner, and without plugging in it sounds pleasing acoustically, yet is not distracting. Since even unplugged my Steel string Electric Guitars make too much distracting noise acoustically, this Antonio Hermosa AH-50 Classical is the first guitar my girlfriend will allow me to play while we both watch TV. This means more Fret Time for me!

Actually mine that just arrived  has minor shipping damage on the rear of the body- and Amazon had already sent a replacement while I have the 1st one repacked with a free UPS return shipping label.


EDIT: August 14, 2013

The replacement  Antonio Hermosa AH-50 Classical arrived from Amazon (2 day travel from  New Jersey to California!) and this one was perfect. Highly recommend this guitar for those seeking a Nylon sound for live use, or a nice low volume practice guitar. Covers 80% of the territory that a Godin Multiac would at over  $1K savings

This is the perfect tool for musicians who want to create Tablature for their music, and the You Rock works well with Logic, Reason and Ableton just to name a few.

There are a ton of great sounds in the built in synth engine, and the ability to expand via midi to tap into your other synth engines makes the sonic possibilities limitless. The touch sensitive fingerboard allows you to tap notes as well as fingerpick or strum notes on the strings.

I tried this software a few years ago, before Peavey acquired it from Alien Connections. I was very impressed with it at the time. From what I have heard, it has only gotten better.

Here's the Peavey page for it; note the links to reviews at the bottom: http://www.peavey.com/products/revalver/#downloads (http://www.peavey.com/products/revalver/#downloads)

I got one of these too. The good news it appears to be the very latest full version - not an obsolete stale 2 year old version

Ive been using this Power bag Messenger Bag to carry my GR-55.

Its handy as it also includes a portable recharge battery power source for USB 5V DC Gear (Not GR-55)

They also have the Rolling Office Case for $45 - but be aware this is for 15.5" Laptops - and GR-55 will NOT fit in the Rolling Office Case.

Hi just noticed Sweetwater has a deal on 4 Traveler Guitars , EG-1 vintage. These usually retail for $499 but are listed for $299 with a Free MI-10 Audio Interface. I own the custom version of this travel guitar and it is absolutely great to play with excellent build. Fits in my suitcase and the neck is bolt on and can be removed so I've fit the whole thing in a carry on once. If you're looking for a travel guitar then check it out.

I just got an advertizement from Guitar Center in the mail a couple of days ago.  They're calling it their "Red Carpet Event," and it is happening only on Sunday, November 24, from 7-9pm. A two-hour sale only.  This mailing came with a card that says 15% off on non-sale items of $99 or more (up to $500 in discounts). That in itself is interesting, but this mailing also included sales info on some other stuff. How about an Epiphone LP Special, with two P90s, for $89.99? Or a "Classic Yamaha Keyboard" (no model number mentioned) for $69? Looks to be a 6-octave kb. Or an 88-key piano-weighted Casion CDP-120 for $299?  I own a somewhat nicer version, the CDP-220R and it's really a pretty good piano touch keyboard. A pair of Alesis powered desktop monitors for $49.99. The iRig Multimedia iRig Pro Recording Studio for $199. And there's more. Lots of gear, goodies, and deals. Plus, if you spend over $20, you get a free membership into their "Sticks or Strings" club -- but only the first 50 people into the store.


There's also a bar code on the outside of the mailer that you scan with your cellphone. It takes you to m.guitarcenter.com, which has a window up front that's offering one-day deals, til 1 pm. And it's for each day in November until 11/27. Today's deal was for a set of AKG headphones. Tomorrow's deal is for a set of Hohner harmonicas. After that it's a blank, so you gotta log into their site every day if you want to participate.

I don't know about you folks, but I'm gonna go visit Guitar Center early on Sunday. They close at 7pm, but folks who have this mailing will be able to get in for this after-hours event. Maybe even if you don't you can get in if you show them a wad of cash, I dunno. But still, they're gonna have to kick me out at 7pm if they want to reopen at 7pm. Cuz I figure that, when I'm hanging around, if they have any of those $90 LP Specials on display, I'm gonna glom onto one I like, and not let go of it. I'll probably also go sit on a pair of those Alesis monitors. I have an old, unpowered pair of Alesis monitors, probably 10 year old or more, and they are great speakers. So I wouldn't mind having a powered set for my computer.

Dang it, I went back a week, not nine days, to check and see if anyone had posted it.  But FWIW, the ad you've displayed is different from the one I received. That ad's about a two-day sale. Mine is about a two hour sale on Sunday, the 24th. I note with interest, though, that the Gibson LP Specials are even cheaper in the ad you posted. Geez, how low can they go. I wonder if I bring a printout of that GC ad into my GC if they'll honor that price. Hmmm . . .

QuoteI note with interest, though, that the Gibson LP Specials are even cheaper in the ad you posted. Geez, how low can they go.

Its an Epiphone actually - and every year at this time they go on sale for $99  - which if you have ever played one might be best described as being priced $50 too high. Ive yet to play one of these cheap Epiphone LP's that has the bridge located in the correct place. Most need to have the bolt on neck removed, plugged, then redrilled to change the geometry just to intonate.

If you still buy one , Play it and check the harmonics vs fretted notes at 12th fret before you buy. Budget $120 Luthier rework puts these at around  $200 - and $200 buys a lot of guitar these days at amazon

Thanks for the tip. Well hell, I thought Gibson had finally gotten their act together with their Epiphone line. I guess I haven't looked at any of the really cheap Epiphones -- I didn't know any of them had bolt necks.  I'll still give them a once-over, though.  Far as cheap guitars from GC, though, I can recommend the Fender Squiers. I bought a Squier Strat last month during the Columbus Days Sale they had going on for $99. I really couldn't believe how nice playing and sounding a guitar that is.  I noticed from your GC ad that they're selling Squiers for $89. So if my store is too, I'm gonna look for a Tele this time.

At Hello Music today, you can get 15% off anything with the code HOLIDAY15

They currently have JTV-59S's in gold and black for $898. With 15% off, that would be $753. Killer deal.

QuoteI picked up an iStomp a couple of months ago.  It wouldn't work on a newer iPhone with the lightning adaptor, but that problem has since been solved.  Also, because it was such a fiasco for so long, Digitech made all the stompbox models available for free, except for one--the Adrian Belew Impossible Guitar. 

I've downloaded all them for free.  I was sceptical after trying a few of the ios guitar amp/effect sims, but this thing is great.  Some (not all) of the stomp boxes are excellent sounding.  You can still download the StompShop app and listen to the demo of each effect, even without the iStomp.

Not working for me either.  For those who've had success, did the price display as $149 until the very last step in the ordering process?  That would be committing my payment information, which I hesitate to do without any feedback indicating the blowout price.  I wonder whether the offer has already expired or been corrected?

Actually scratch that - I see Steve has the blowout price on the first page of checkout.  Weird - see my screenshot attached.

Yes - thats good advice with many of these "MF deals"

They try to bring in new customers, but only existing MF customers get access to these sale flyer mailers, but often the deals do not work if your browser has a history of Musician Friend URLs  / cookies

Anyone have experience with the istomp and iOS devices that have lightning connectors.  Does it work reliably with the adaptor?  Kinda sucks that the adaptor almost doubles the price if the pedal in this case.

Also saw that they have the istomp at Sweetwater for the same price, although they are on back order.

QuoteKinda sucks that the adapter almost doubles the price if the pedal in this case.


Myself - I typically use Apple Lightning to 30 pin Adapter to connect to numerous different types of IOS hardware Ive collected over the years.  - Its a recommended purchase for all owners  of the new iPads with Lighting port. I carry this adapter in my bag daily.   (I only need one)

QuoteAnyone have experience with the istomp and iOS devices that have lightning connectors.  Does it work reliably with the adaptor?

Dont know - i still have an iPhone 4 (IOS5.2) or iPad 2 (IOS7.0.4) with 30 pin dock I intend to use to install iStomp FX

The iStomp not connecting issue was a result of the "bad combo" of  IOS6.1 and all new lightning dock IOS devices. (iPhone 5, 5C, 5S, iPad mini, iPad 4, iPad Air) 

Avoid IOS 6

If you stick with IOS5.2 or update to IOS7 - it should work now with any Dock type. (New IOS devices must use the Apple Lightning to 30 pin Dock Adapter to work with the Digitech iStomp programming Cable

I just came across this. I'm not familiar with the Stomp Box or Stomp Shop. But when I visited Stomp Shop on iTunes, I saw that it was free, so I went ahead and d/l'd it. But -- am I correct in thinking that, in order to access the Stomp Shop's devices that I must have the Stomp Box hardware, eh? I don't suppose I can access these devices with my iRig, can I?

yes, you need the iStomp. As of yesterday you could still get one on sale at Musicians Friend for $39.99 w/free shipping.

Well it sounds to me like those of you who ordered an extra, or in Ringleader's case (and likely mine) ordering one just for no specific reason, you can probably easily double your money on it on eBay once this sale concludes.  Hmm . .  that's probably sufficient motivation for me to get one, come to think of it. So I did.


Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread

My first iStomp arrived yesterday.  I haven't even had a chance to plug it in yet, but I was a little disappointed to find that it runs only with the included AC adaptor, i.e. no battery compartment.  I guess with an open-ended system like this they can't predict what the current draw will be, so they have to prepare for the worst.  Still, for a design that trades so heavily on convenience, form factor, and familiarity, this was a let down for me. 

If you're planning on integrating the iStomp with a pedal board where you already have a shared power supply, not an issue at all.  But if you expect to pull one or more of these out of a drawer to spontaneously throw in front of an amp, in an FX loop, whatever... expect to be slowed down a little.  It may sound fussy, but I was really looking forward to the convenience of a self-contained 9V stompbox that could be repurposed as needed.  Once I make up my mind to start running cables to AC, I can generally find more powerful alternatives.

And the second one is still in transit.  Putting the ass in assume, again.   :)

My iStomp arrived today. Knowing already that it had to remain hooked up to A/C, I didn't suffer from the same disappointment that Ringleader did. Actually I'm pretty impressed with the quality of the stomp box. It's stout and appears to be well made.

It's after midnight now, so I'm not going to bother with hooking it up. That'll keep until tomorrow. Looking forward to trying out the effects.

This holiday season, there are significant savings on new Gibson USA guitars that come with the Tronical Tune system (Gibson calls this the Min-ETune system - both are identical

more details on Tronical Tune system here

http://www.tronical.com/tronicaltune/ (http://www.tronical.com/tronicaltune/)
My 2 cents, they shoot themselves in the foot when ALL Marketing media promotes this system as a "Auto tuning system for guitars "  (Big yawn)  - while demoting the fact this system provides 18 Alt tunings on the fly to the fine print.

The Tronical tune system alone is $329

Provides real deal alt tunings using servomotor tuners, all electronics are in the headstock now

which makes all guitars on this page here with the  Min-ETune system preinstalled a good values IMHO

I agree. I have been considering, if it fits, adding a tronical system on my acoustic Breedlove, for the sole purpose of alt tunings, especially user presets. Much better than digital alt tunings from VG, Line 6, etc. I did read, however, that one user was constantly snapping G strings, using the system. But most reviews have been positive.

I just got these home (Best Buy in-store pickup) - these are perfect for a small bedroom  / low volume  amplification system for DSP Amp Modeling systems

Will NOT move enough air to compete with a live acoustic drummer, but these can crank on 10 and still sound good for a bedroom rehearsal / songwriting use.

THX qualified means these are flat 20-20kHz with 105db SPL at 1 meter

Polysix and iMS20 normally costs 30 smackers so this is actually a sweet deal. 

Also 30% off their legacy collection plugins, though it's worth mentioning you get most of their legacy plugins as well as some applied acoustics modelers just by purchasing a Korg microkey.

More iStomps at $40 at Amazon

Thank you, sir!  I got my istomp from MF last week and was very impressed with it.  No issues whatsoever using it with my iphone 5 (iOS7) and a 30 pin to lightning adaptor.  I was really bummed that I didn't pick up more than one.

Saw your post this morning, and just ordered 2 more from Amazon, who says that they are out of stock, but took my order, so I'm going to assume that all is well and they'll ship them out before too long.

With all of the recent specials on this pedal, is it likely that Digitech is discontinuing it?  Or possibly working on a v2? 

They could do a lot if they designed an expression pedal that would link via the existing DSC in order to control parameters like changing the speed on the rotary effect or adjusting delay levels.

Thats true - just wait, Amazon is very good when things like this happen.


When Amazon says they are temporarily out of stock, but still allow you to order at a deal price, this means you need to order to lock in your price before they change it, and they will ship within 7-14 days.

Same thing happened with my ZT Amp - I ordered two at $169 /each from Amazon 2 weeks ago when they said they had zero stock but more coming in, The price went back up to $276 2 days after I ordered, but they arrived last Saturday = great deal.

Its my understanding the iStomp will be replaced by something new at 2014 NAMM - but that will not be $40
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: mojo thorne on December 24, 2013, 09:31:57 AM
That's what I figured.  But MF had them in stock now at the same price, so it was a safe move.  $40 is a ridiculous deal considering that even the boss and DOD pedals that are modeled in the stomp shop sell for more than that on ebay.

What's your impression of the ZT lunchbox?  I've read a lot of the reviews and watched some videos online, but there's nowhere around me where I can test drive one for myself.  I'd like to check out the acoustic version which, presumably, would be closer to a full range speaker.

I've had my eye on the foxl v2 Bluetooth speaker for a long time now, and even though it is listed as a new b stock, this is still a good price IMHO. It is supposed to have a really linear response (for guitar modeler apps and recording) and reference on the go. Also, Rakuten is running a 14% points promotion until the 5th to be used on a future order. I ordered one but have not heard it yet.

Seller HPP enterprises is selling it for $85 after shipping as their "special price" + the 14% in reward points.

I just got one of these - and I feel it sounds suspiciously like a Jambox. an unbelievable price at $17 with free shipping  and decent performance  - mount on a record turntable and mic it for leslie speaker simulation

Word of caution with those bluetooth speakers.  As of yet I haven't been able to get my music apps in iOS 6 to output audio through them, but when I play music via itunes it works fine.  Clearly a routing issue.  Others may have had varying experiences.

FWIW - Many IOS apps can not  access Bluetooth Audio for live streaming
But regarding the Ematic Portable Bluetooth Speakerbox - its confirmed working for Android 4.1.2 (Galaxy Note 2) and iPad Air (IOS7), Macbook Retina OSX 10.8.5.

Thinking about ordering one of those Ematic speakers.  Couple of questions:  Is it stereo?  And how do you think it would compare with this, for example:  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005LFYCM6/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d0_i2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=05Q6TTQ426H5Y9YGRM9M&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1688200382&pf_rd_i=507846 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005LFYCM6/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d0_i2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=05Q6TTQ426H5Y9YGRM9M&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1688200382&pf_rd_i=507846)

Ematic is stereo and works micro SD card MP3 player and Ive heard it but free shipping occurs only if order exceeds $35.
I was blown away for its size. Fits in a shirt pocket and its twice loud as anything that size near the price. I bought on a whim not expecting quality and was happily surprised.

my only complaint with this unit is the lack of good stereo separation  on the  Ematic as both internal speakers are set side by side internally on the left and center side  - while all the other electronics seem to be housed on the right side   - its just goes very loud  - and I hear all music info I feed it.  -

I may just be impressed by volume  - but it does support TRS Stereo Line input input

But for $17, I will find a use for it. - Ive paid more for just the power adapter that and accessories that come with it.

Yes- Its important to have dual USB outputs  - one for the Audio interface (Use a 2.1Amps type designed for iPad works well) and another 1Amp USB power port for the USB Hub - to power USB MIDI controllers .

Review
http://www.chipchick.com/2013/12/monster-m7-tablet-review.html (http://www.chipchick.com/2013/12/monster-m7-tablet-review.html)
Monster, known more for the cables and headphones that connect devices than the devices themselves, threw their hat into the very crowded budget tablet ring earlier this year. The Monster M7 tablet, exclusive to Walmart.com, is the first tablet, and first computing device of any sort, from Monster, so there's no history here to form any kind of expectations. What we do know is that there are a lot of quality options at low prices from other sources in the 7" tablet market, especially with Amazon's Kindle Fire line seeing some incredibly low price tags. So, can the M7 hang? Shaq sure seems to think so, at least. Is Shaq a budding soothsayer of tech excellence?

The basic specs are what you might call the 2013 standard for budget tablets – a 1280 x 800 resolution display with a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor and 1 GB of RAM. You'll also have 16 GB of storage, along with a 5 MP rear camera and a 2 MP front camera. The whole thing measures 7.9" x 5.01" x .38", and weighs .79 pounds. The M7 feels a little heavier than others in the 7" class, but not overly so. For a handheld computing device, it's still remarkably light and thin, even if it hasn't gotten into the weight-shaving, millimeter-obsessed game of one-upsmanship that most of the other tablet manufacturers play. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are here (no 3G or LTE models), and there's a 4,000 mAh battery inside. Monster promised about eight hours of battery life, and the M7 lived up to that more often than not during an average day of use.

The build feels sturdy, with a no-slip rubber-like grip on the back. Around the edges, there's a microphone, a headphone port, a microSD card slot, a Micro USB port for charging and file transfers, and a Mini-HDMI port. You'll also find a power button and a volume rocker – a small gripe is that these buttons are nearly flush with the body, so it's easy to miss them or hit the wrong one when you're in a hurry or fumbling around in the dark.

The M7 only runs Android 4.1 out of the box. There's a firmware update that fixes some freezing problems that were prevalent during the initial release, but nothing in the way of an update to any of the later versions of Android. There are also some extra apps tacked on besides the standard Google suite, and, as befits Monster's reputation for cables and headphones, they're largely music based. Speakerfy helps you simultaneously stream your music on other devices, and Music Maker Jam is a simple mixing app. The Walmart app, along with a widget, is also here, due to the exclusive partnership. There are some other third party sound and photo editing apps thrown in, too. You can't uninstall any of them, which is a little irksome if you don't find them to your liking.

There's also an introduction to the Monster Central PowerControl app. Did you know that Monster actually makes smart plugs that go between your home appliances and your outlets? Well now you do!  You can then use the Monster Control app on the tablet to control and monitor power going to those appliances, or turn them off or on remotely.

Audio is a high point for the M7, as you might expect. The tablet gets impressively loud for being a 7" device, and Time Correct Bluetooth and aptX codec tech work to make music streaming to portable speakers sound as good as possible.

The most disappointing part is the performance. Switching between apps tends to be slow and choppy, as is web browsing – browsing with multiple tabs is not advised. Interestingly, I seemed to get better performance out of the M7 when using Firefox as my browser, instead of Chrome. I also wasn't able to get the front camera working for use with video calls. We're hoping that a future firmware update will address the front camera issue.

The Monster M7 tablet is available only on Walmart.com for $150. It comes in eight different colors that match Monster's line of N-Tune headphones. You can check out our full review of the N-Tune headphones here.

Verdict
If we're being honest here, the Monster M7 is probably more significant for its marketing value than for being a tablet. It's a matching accessory for Monster's N-Tune line of headphones, and it introduces and fits with Monster's other products, like their speakers and smart plugs. An exclusive deal with Walmart helps push it into public consciousness, and maybe brand recognition does the rest. The point is, it's not built to be a show-stopper of a tablet on its own.

That being said, the Monster M7 is quite the solid buy at its price point. The firmware update fixes the most grievous problems, leaving you with a 7" tablet with pretty good specs and decent, if sometimes flawed, performance. If you get one, at this price, you certainly won't be disappointed in the long run. While I think you'd be hard-pressed to argue that this is the best buy in the 7"market for this price, Monster has done a really nice job with their first tablet, and it does offer a nice amount of value for the pricing. The fact that you can color coordinate it with their colorful N-Tune headphones is like icing on the cake.

Update: It seems that Walmart has dropped the price on the Monster M7 from $149 to just $99, making it pretty much a steal. At this price, it's hard not to recommend the tablet for those looking for the most bang for their cheap buck.

Buy it!

The Good: Attractive price, available in a choice of 8 fun colors, matches N-Tune headphones, nothing to complain about when it comes to hard specs, pretty good build quality with nice finish and grip, great audio for a small tablet.

The Bad: Browser performance is choppy, switching between apps is a bit slow, only ships with Android 4.1 with no update in sight

 That's a very interesting looking amp, Elantric. Have you ever had the chance to play through one? If so, what were your impressions? How about the effects? Alto's website says they're Alesis' 24-bit DSP effects, so I would expect them to sounddecent.

Guitar Center online has a used VG-99 for $450 bucks.  That's the cheapest I think I've ever seen a used one go for, and if it's in good working order, is an absolute steal.  Figure someone might want to snag a back up or make a cheap jump from a GR-55:

Great strategy.  I would add that if you keep an eye on it every few days for a while (say a month or so), make a note of the units that aren't moving.  GC does not want to sit on used gear inventory.  So when you notice one that the store is not selling, call them and ask what they can do on the price.  If they are motivated to unload it they may come down 10-20% just to get it off their books.

Note that this will probably only work on stuff that's been sitting.  I wouldn't bother trying on "new arrivals."

I actually like to buy used gear from GC because they offer the same no hassle return policy that they do on new gear.  It is easier than a private seller eBay return if something doesn't work.  So they do have a little bit of value add even if you pay a little more.  Not that I haven't gotten some good deals on eBay too.  But I've also been through a hellish adventure and the whole eBay Buyer Protection process trying to return a DOA item to an unwilling seller.

OMG this is an absolute steal.  I'm tempted to buy it and then flip the RR Strat for $500!  (I've already got an RR and a GC1.)  Better that someone who needs both jump on this, though.

I got the GC March sale flier in the mail yesterday.  From March 1 through March 16, they will have the Kustom PA50 powered speakers on sale for $69.  I've been using one to audition GR-55 patches at home, and have even used it as a monitor at some gigs.  It's small, lightweight, and loud enough for those applications (althought i don't play with a drummer).  There is some breakup when you really crank it, but for the 70 bucks, it's a great deal.

I'm going to pick up a second one so I can leave one set up at home (I have it mounted) and just grab the other one to go.

(Sorry if I was over zealous in posting that in the deal alert thread before the sale actually starts.)



Also. GC has the ZT Lunchbox as one of their flash deals right now, so anyone who didn't get one at the last sale can still save some cash on one now.  It's only for in-store stock, however, but $189 is still not a bad price at all.

Interesting looking setup, there, Elantric. I note a couple of items, which is why I'm thinking you're suggesting it. It's a noise-cancelling setup to the extent that a set of earplugs are noise cancelling, and one of its mentioned applications is "sound stage monitoring." To me, this last item is what makes it a very good value at $25. I've priced a set of similar earphones made by Shure that cost upwards of $100.

I like the idea of using this type of gear for monitoring my music levels when on stage, but I've never cared much for the price Shure wants, so I've never sprung for a set.

I note that you prefer the S6P -- the set with the microphone. I like the triple-contact plug for my iOS and Android items, but neither of my laptops use it. Instead they both have a separate port for the mic. So I guess I'd have to get an adapter if I wanted to use it with my laptop -- or my PA, far as that goes.  To what purpose do you see using the mic with the S6P? Surely, it will be inadequate for vocals, won't it? It'll probably pick up too much background noise anyway, I'm thinking.

I only post as these MEElectronics Sport-Fi S6P are on sale for $25
These are designed to stay on your head should you move around on stage.
The mic and iphone controls do nothing for  IEM live use. they are backward compatible with any system with a 3.5mm headphone jack. But also work with an iphone too. These typically sell for $60.
Mine should arrive in a few weeks.

Im positive there are better IEM earbud phones out there. But those can be 10 to 20 times the price.

Also Cooltouch, you are putting words in my mouth. I NEVER said I prefer these over other IEM types.

Now don't be getting all keyed up. All I wrote was "I note that you prefer the S6P -- the set with the microphone,"  and by that, all I meant was you preferred it over the S6, which doesn't have a mic. That's a fair assumption, isn't it?

I just posted a deal on MEElectronics Earbuds at $25 (over 50% off)  - that seemed to be a good value worth sharing, thats all ( other models of MEElectronics Earbuds might work  better or worse as IEMs - I have never tried any yet)  - my posts in the Deal Atert Thread are not to be viewed as my 100% recommendation. But I have read good reports that others do use MEElectronics Earbuds for IEMs and I thought I would give them a try. They might be junk, or they might be adequate and strike a good balance in the price/performance ratio. Will not know until I actually try them.   
In my limited experience with IEMs  - the Panasonic Earbuds that Gumtown suggested for TrakStar WDM-200 IEM system (Panasonic RP-HJE200) sound the best for the price to me so far  - I'm just exploring other low cost IEM options, as I feel all IEM's will have a finite lifespan and will need to be replaced on a regular basis.   
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: cooltouch on March 02, 2014, 05:20:11 PM
That's fair enough. Just curious: what is it about IEMs in general that you feel gives them a finite lifespan any more than a desk top set of Monitors would? Grime/spooge/sweat/earwax infusion associated with them being worn for protracted periods?

Just to add to this, I found a listing for them over at Amazon. For $24.99. I think I'd rather buy from Amazon because of its hassle-free return policy. Not saying that the eBay sellers aren't just as good, it's just that it tends to be more hit-and-miss with eBay is all.

With my luck, I'd get a set that will quit within a week. Speaking of which, I took a look at the reviews. The overwhelming majority are five stars. Impressive. I went ahead and looked at the 1 stars though. Almost every one complained about something breaking, typically one channel going dead, shortly after purchase. Good thing they have a 1-year warranty.

Where possible I try to use gear that represents a high performance vs cost ratio. Like any other gear i use at live shows, it wears out over time, or it gets damaged needed repairs or gets lost or stolen. I expect IEM earbuds to be no different.

Just thought I'd mention that the MEElectronics headphones that Elantric posted a message about earlier for $24.95 on eBay, can now be found on eBay for $19.99. That's a Buy It Now price with free shipping.Go here to see more:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/MEElectronics-Sport-Fi-S6P-Memory-Wire-In-Ear-Earphone-Bulk-Package-/141206833037?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20e095478d (http://www.ebay.com/itm/MEElectronics-Sport-Fi-S6P-Memory-Wire-In-Ear-Earphone-Bulk-Package-/141206833037?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20e095478d)

The seller has over 8300 feedbacks, so he should be reliable enough. I was gonna order a set from Amazon, who also showed them for $24.95, but found out today that they had raised their price to $27.95. So, Amazon don't get my bidness, while the above eBay seller will.

ADMsustainiac showed us the MPower Battery Pack a couple weeks ago that was on sale using a coupon. I decided to give Amazon Prime a try and I'm about halfway through my 30-day free trial. Amazon shows a Prime price of the MPower battery pack for $32.99, which is about $10 cheaper than the regular price ADMsustainiac mentioned:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00G52MHCG (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00G52MHCG)

Since it shows only the Prime price I don't know if there is a difference. Is the coupon still valid?  I don't know since I haven't gone through the check out process.

I decided to do some shopping on eBay for the battery packs, and found a few that supposedly work with my iPad Air, but will also work with iPhones and iPods, as well as some Android devices. This one might be useful for folks on a tight budget (like me, all too often). 12000 mAh. $17.99 and free shipping, too:

also some trivia - I'm often logged in doing forum maintenance / new member approval using my "admsustainiac" account - and sometimes forget to log out and re-login as "elantric" particularly if I'm at a remote location using my smart phone.   - so "admsustainiac" and "elantric" are both "me"

Ah, good to know, that last one.


I should be receiving the headset within the next day or two. I'll have to rig something up to simulate a live performance, however. I have a small PA system I'm planning to use them with ultimately. Right now, however I'm in the middle of reorganizing my music room and I have all my things pulled out from their former locations. Currently I have just large piles of "stuff" that I hope to start reassembling today. I figure it will take a few hours at least just getting my DAW reintegrated with all its exterior peripherals


Anyway, I'll think of something after they arrive.  If nothing else I guess I could just run some mp3s through my monitor speakers at a fairly high volume, then hook up the headset and see how well it works against the mp3s as they're blasting away through my external speakers.

Well, that last piece of gear will have to wait some.


The ME S6P earphones arrived today and I'm trying them out right now. Unfortunately my music room is still torn apart-- it's taken longer than I anticipated getting everything back together. So just for a first test, I'm watching Netflix with the earphones and I can honestly state that they are the best sounding earphones I've owned yet. I own a pretty wide assortment, ranging from freebies to a set of Apple phones that came with my iPod, which are actually pretty good to a set of phones that came with my Samsung Galaxy S4, which are even better, to these ME S6P's which rival my best set of headphones that  completely enclose my ears. The stereo separation is excellent, the highs are crispy and the lows are surprisingly full. During episodes of full orchestration, the separation remains, without any trace of muddiness.


The earphones come with a large assortment of rubber earpieces, including one pair of double cone and two pairs of triple cone ones. The triple cones remind me of a set of triple cone hearing protectors I own. I'm using one of the triple cone sets now. They do a good job of noise attenuation when the phones are "plugged in," rivaling my hearing protectors. Using them makes the earphones behave more like over the ear headphones, which makes sense. I like the sensation, a lot.



So at moderate volumes, they are impressive, and well worth the amount spent ($20 with free shipping). For higher volume applications, I will have to report back, after I get my DAW put back together, which I hope will be later today or this evening.

Elantric is absolutely right, but let me add just a kind word of caution for those out there enticed to jump on the SSD storage bandwagon:
Use judicious quantities of caveat emptor when planning and buying these puppies.

Do as much research as you can. Current production conditions, capacities and specs over in the Far East are constantly changing (what else is new).  Try to get some MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure) figures if the candidate product has any history.

My son works for a PC rebuilder and has witnessed many times the grief over TOTAL data loss of users who trusted a bargain priced SSD to contain the entire farm.  Unlike disc based drives they usually don't just 'start' to show data access or bad sector problems beforehand. The usual scenario suddenly 'blink-pop' it's DEAD.  I'd hate to see someone lose their entire expensive retail, home created and tweaked sound libraries or composition archives due to total disc failure!

The Samsung 840 EVOs in the Amazon link seem to get pretty good tech press, but for life and death reliability, I believe currently Intel SSDs still have the edge with regards to best technology (the critical controller itself especially) and overall 24/7 reliability out there.  They have typically tracked a bit slower in certain read/write tests but are currently preferred by many for industrial strength applications. (I don't work for any manufacturers, just have experience trying to maintain Bell system service delivery and field standards, -oops, I hear lol in the background).  Intel usually trades at more expensive price point however and is not often on 'blow-out' sales.

Here's a good general storage review site worth checking out:

http://www.storagereview.com/reviews/enterprise/ssd (http://www.storagereview.com/reviews/enterprise/ssd)

I still favor the configuration of SSD for your Operating System and programs (you can always reload those), + good fast (I like WD Black series) disc drives for files and data.

Preachin' to the converted I know but whatever you do after you upgrade/swap-out your drives put in place a regular BACKUP system of some kind!

-Just sayin'

Well, apart from the special conditions Elantric mentions, it has always been my understanding that the primary use for an SSD is for the OS  and related system files. In that situation a drive failure would typically be more along the lines of a rather major inconvenience, but the all important data should remain unscathed. I guess, though, that now that they are getting both bigger and cheaper, your heads-up should be paid attention to. And now that you can pick up terabyte drives for less that a hundred bucks, I would think that the smart way to go would be to install a back-up system in any PC that will be storing data on SSDs, since they apparently have longevity issues.


I'll admit to not being conversant on SST technology. I've just always assumed they were sort of like big flash drives or memory cards, none of which I've ever had fail on me. After all, for decades now, one of the chief selling points of solid state anything compared to analog and/or mechanical systems, is increased reliability. But I know from first hand experience that they can fail. In my case it was a very old Boyer electronic ignition system's "black box" that had begun to fail on an old Norton I'd bought. Ended up replacing the entire ignition system piecemeal, until there was nothing left but the iggy module, and it was still in the same failure mode even after I replaced one worn component after another. It would run for a few minutes then die, then kick it over 20 or 30 times, then a cough or sputter. Leave it be for a half hour or so and the whole process would repeat. I finally admitted to myself that it had to be the one piece of solid state componentry, and after I replaced it, the old bike has run perfectly ever since.

SSD's of yesterday were delicate due to the fear of the limited amount of write uses the flash memory had.  Modern SSD's are much more robust, with many far outlasting the manufacturer's listed read/write longevity.  That being said, they are expensive and you don't get that much of a benefit in speed outside of launching the OS and installed applications.  That is why it is practical to get either a 120gb or 240 gb for your OS, DAW and plugins and just keep session data and the like on a seperate 7200 rpm terabyte drive (10000 rpm if you're feeling saucy).

You recall correctly. The adapter is 30-pin on one end and a round plug on the other to fit the pedal. I use my iPod for the 30-pin hookup to d/l the various effects to the pedal.


I've been bemoaning the fact that I can have only one effect resident at a time, but then it dawned on me that the pedals are selling for cheap enough so I should just buy a couple or three more so I can run a few effects simultaneously. The three pack is a good idea in that respect. I just checked at amazon and the price has dropped to $89.99, fulfilled through Gravtronics.

(https://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fv3prod.hellomusic.com%2FAssets%2FP%2F9%2F0%2FI%2FP90INX3382TO4XNW9W8I2H5HV67QYQ9_large.jpg&hash=58f4aca2bc850dc80656a6b421bf73e1ca70903d)
What It Is: The Peavey AT-200 Auto-Tune guitar won't correct all your missed notes, but it will give you the most accurate tuning and intonation you've ever experienced. That's because the AT-200 packs Auto-Tune for Guitar, which lets you tune your guitar just by strumming the strings and pushing a button - access alternate tunings just by holding a chord or barring a fret while you do it. And with Solid-Tune Intonation, every single note and chord you play will be perfectly in tune, no matter how high you play them on the Peavey AT-200 Auto-Tune guitar's neck.

Why this is a great opportunity: Strum your strings, push a button, and your Peavey AT-200 is ready to rock - that's fast. And the really amazing thing is how you access alternate tunings: want to play in open G? Hold an open G chord and repeat the tuning process. Incredibly simple. Or you can barre the 12th fret to tune all your strings up an octave, barre the fifth fret to turn the AT-200 into a baritone guitar, and so on. There are no presets to sort through, or complicated mechanisms - just intuitive, accurate tuning.

Sorry, just curious, but what can short 13-pin cables be used for besides Roland GR/V stuff?  Can one ignore the extra 8 pins and use them for 5-pin midi, for example?
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: Elantric on April 06, 2014, 01:29:36 PM
Only other use (but with a different wiring pin out) is Kenwood /Clarion CD.   Changer for car stereo.

Last I checked Roland US sells 0.5 meter length 13 pin cables for $40 plus shipping.

So these are useful for ? It seems rather obvious to me that Roland is not making these for a Clarion CD changer with pin-outs that don't match. I was wondering if daisy-chaining a GR to a VG would be possible, but my GR-33 has only one GK Out.

Comments about Graph Tech Ghost Loaded Floyd Rose Saddles (Set of 6):
I was pleased when I finally got my Piezo pickups, however, they DO NOT fit on a FLoyd Base without SERIOUS modification. While this is stated on the Graphtech site, it states here that they are a drop in replacement, they aren't. The spacing is too narrow on a OFR and the pickup wires need channels to be mounted in. The people at Graphtech are less than helpful and they don't stock replacement parts for those of us that got suckered into buying with false adverts. The product however works great when you buy the Graphtech Floyd that is already to go.

Product Description

Portable digital recorders are a necessity for all songwriters, and the TASCAM DP-008EX Digital POCKETSTUDIO is a great choice. Jot down all of the key components to your songs using this professional sounding multi-track recorder. Be ready wherever creativity strikes.

Built-In High-Quality Stereo Condenser Microphones
The DP-008EX comes with two condenser microphones built directly in the front of the unit so you can record vocals or acoustic guitar anytime without the need for extra equipment or setup time. TASCAM held many evaluation tests to secure the best sounding microphones and structures. Modeled after the top-selling DR Series microphones, you can be assured you're receiving top-quality. Moreover the DP-008EX was designed with a tripod mount for versatile set-up and placement.

Simple and Easy-to-Use Interface
The DP-008EX is designed for on-the-spot recording. No unnecessary features were included that might complicate the recording to ensure easy functionality. Designed with analog functionality and dedicated control knobs the DP-008EX POCKETSTUDIO is one of the simplest to use songwriting scratchpads on the market.

Ultra Light Weight Design
Carry It with you everywhere in your gig bag. The DP-008EX features ultra lightweight designs to ensure portability. It weighs in at only 360g (without AA batteries).

Two Analog Inputs for External Mics and Electric/Acoustic Guitar, etc.
The DP-008EX has two input terminals by phone-jack, these terminals provide to connect an external microphone, an electric-acoustic guitar and a line-level device like a synthesizer. Alternately with the help of a conversion cable you can connect a tablet device like the iPad (conversion cable is not included).

Record to SD/SDHC Card (up to 32GB), High-Speed Data Transfer via USB2.0
Both models record to widely available SD/SDHC card media (2GB card included). In addition, both models can connect to PCs via USB2.0 for high-speed data transferring. All song ideas can be transferred via USB or SD card readers to and from the units at any point in the recording process. Files can be used in correspondence with DAWs.

Two XLR Inputs with Full +48V Phantom Power
The DP-008EX can supply phantom power for condenser microphones, even when operated with AA batteries. (Notice: Operating time becomes shorter when used with phantom power supply.)

Grab Your Ideal Sounds with Insert Effects for All Inputs
The DP-008EX is designed with insert effects for all input channels. Insert effects include EQ, compressor, de-esser and exciter. For vocal recording, you can use the EQ to boost your desired frequency range, and compress your tracks to normalize your song.

2-Band Shelving EQ for Each Track
Demo song needs the same high-quality as final masters. The DP-008EX has separately adjustable 2-band EQ for each track. Hi-range EQ can be adjusted from 1.7kHz to 18kHz, Low-range EQ can be adjusted from 32Hz to 1.6kHz.

Ideal for Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, etc. Utilize the DP-008EX's Built-In Effects
The DP-008EX has six different types of reverb to help tailor your ideal sounding vocals to any style song. Easily set your reverb with dedicated control knobs for each track. Reverb effects include: Hall1/2, Room, Studio, Plate1/2. Reverb time and master level can both be adjusted.

Eliminate the Need for Any Other Products with Built-In Mastering Effects
The DP-008EX's built-in mastering effects will provide high-quality master-like file creation. The mastering effects include 2-band EQ, Multi-band compressor and Normalize effect. Finalize dynamic and powerful sounding songs by utilizing the DP-008EX's mastering effects.

The Auto Analysis Mastering Function Allows Easy Track Mastering
Anyone using the DP-008EX can easily master tracks with the Auto Analysis Mastering tool. In one step, select a mastering style, NATURAL or MAXIMUM, then the DP-008EX will make the calculation based on analysis of the song data.

I was surprised how well this works for the money.

I ordered 1 for test and promptly ordered 3 more of these to light up my band at small gigs for $64 - Just add 4 C Clamps to  mount these on your PA riser poles, or put them on the floor  - no heat , no blown circuit breakers  = lots of light! Using LED technology that was unavailable  just a few short years ago.

I doubt you can find anything cheaper thats built this tough in a all metal enclosure with glass lens thats also beer proof! -Choose what color you want with the remote control , even has a revolving " color wheel" function that changes colors periodically.point it at a silver  tinsel christmas tree and relive 1963.

I grabbed an MS100BT.  Sale price is $99.77, but register on the site first and they will email you a coupon code for $10 off any purchase, no minimum.  The MS70CDR and the MS60B both seem to be out of stock, and if the above is true, might not be restocked.

Glad to be of help, and thanks in turn for posting this tip.  The Toys R Us in-store price turned out to be $3 rather than $3.50, but I had to ask a sales clerk to confirm as the splitters did not have price tags.  I also picked up an iHome iBT4 Bluetooth speaker for $30 (normally $99) - I actually don't care much about the Bluetooth side, but it does have a 1/8" audio input and has a nice bass response for its size.

Buy two of these 6.5" coax full range speakers and build a stereo FRFR Speaker cab for practice -  handle up to  120 watts  / 8 ohms

I might swap out the original speakers in my Blackstar ID Core 40 and install these, and add a 75 watt per side stereo power amp (150 watts) and a real AC Power inlet and a small mixer create a small mobile GR/VG amplification rig.

Get a $250 Eventide Channel Strip, Free, for Any Platform
BY PETER KIRN
UltrachannelScreenshot3
You know those infomercials that tell you to call now – though it makes absolutely no difference when you call? This is the opposite of that.
Basically, you can buy a new 64-bit channel strip plug-in from Eventide for US$249. Or, act now, and it will cost ... nothing. It's free, through the 8th of July. I had to read this twice; I thought maybe it was an older version or an existing plug-in. It's not. Their intro price is zero, and then it goes up to two hundred fifty bucks.
And coming from Eventide, this is especially big news, as the company has a long tradition of making some of music makers' favorite processing algorithms.
So, if you think you might fancy a channel strip, you can skip this article and head straight to it. UltraChannel is almost an entirely plug-in suite in a single plug-in. There's EQ and compression, of course, but also gate, delays, micro pitch control, and saturation (including some subtle saturation capabilities) – something you might use creatively as well as for mix/master workflows. You get:
Micro pitch functionality (from the H8000)
Stereo delays with variable feedback paths
Compressor #1: de-essing, side-chain capable
Compressor #2: O-Pressor "extreme" compression (compression from the Omnipressor)
Saturation: both what they call "Soft-Saturation" and an emulation of transformer core saturation
Drag-and-drop signal routing
EQ
Gate
Lots of presets
It's compatible with AU, VST, and AAX64, on OS X and Windows, and it's 64-bit.
So, what's the catch?
You have to provide your email, and you sign up for their mailing list. (You can opt out of that once you grab the plug-in.) And you do have to use an account via iLok.com, though that's just for authorization – you don't need a physical iLok dongle.

Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: cooltouch on July 02, 2014, 08:03:02 PM
Thanks for the heads-up on the Roland GR units. Not being familiar with either of these Roland products or the Boss GP-10, I read through the GR-S description with  some interest, and after a brief internet search, got to read up on the GP-10 as well. They all sound quite impressive. Just from a rather cursory scan, it seems to me that the GP-10 has a quite different suite of sounds it offers compared to the two Roland effects units. But the price difference is rather large. Musician's Friend sells the GP-10 for $500, while the GR-S and GR-D are on sale for $100.

Given this extreme discount, I find the GR-S to be quite tempting. But I have questions that I'm hoping someone here can address. I own a GR-33 with a GK-2a pickup and have been plodding along with it, without feeling much of a desire to upgrade to a GR-55. So I'm wondering if the GR-S's 13-pin port will support a GK-2a, or does it require a GK-3 only?  I suspect a GK-2a will work just fine but that it isn't mentioned in the ad because it's a discontinued model.  Can anyone here confirm that a GK-2a will work with either the GR-S or GR-D?  I suppose if nobody here knows the answer to that I can try to get an answer from Roland or perhaps Musician's Friend, but I'm thinking an answer from one of y'all might be more complete than what I might get from the above.

Pretty confident the GK2A will work just as well as the GK3 with the GR-S.  The two pickups are very nearly identical.

If you're happy with the GR33, you may be better off sticking with it.  Some people claim the tracking is better than that of the GR55, and that the GR33 is easier to use for what it does.  The GR55 offers broader functionality, however.  If you want your guitar synth, guitar modeling, alt. tunings, amp modeling, and multifx all in one box, that's the GR55.  If you've got other products covering the other bases, there may not be much payoff, and you may find the GR55 more difficult to work with.  It's largely a matter of personal preference, but rule 1 applies:  don't fix what isn't broken.

I'd be careful in comparing the GR-S with the GP-10 and thinking the GR-S is a great value just because it's so inexpensive.  The GP-10 is a much more powerful, complex product than the GR-S - the latter being basically one voice of limited DSP synthesis; no programmability, etc.  And note that it's only a good value now because Roland couldn't move them and retailers are blowing them out cheaper than intended.  There's probably a reason for that.  I'm not saying they're (GR-S, GR-D) not cool pedals - certainly worth $99 and probably lots of fun - just saying the GP-10 is in a different league.

One thing certain, even at $99/ea (July 4th 2014 sale) - these will not "sell out" anytime soon - i see no rush to buy

Its my opinion that after the Boss GP-10 has been out for 6 months - look for both these discontinued GR-S and GR-D to become  a  Musician's Friend Stupid Deal of the day @ $49 each on Black Friday 2014 - or sooner, just to clear old stock. if you could afford to buy three GR-S's or Three GR-D's  today -  you might as well explore our group buy GP-10 and have "all that and more"  - just sayin ;)

I bought one of each. For $99 per with free shipping, I think that they have value, convenience, and utility. If I want to go out but don't want to bring a GK-equipped guitar and don't want to drag a VG-99 along with it (together with a PDS-10 stand if I don't want to put the VG-99 on the floor), and if I don't want to have to cope with a computer-based editor (or even an overly-elaborate LED screen), this gives me some useful options. It lightens the burden all 'round, I think.

Obviously not a replacement for any full-on GR or VG device but then again I don't always want or need a full-on GR or VG. Simplicity does have its place.

Played two gigs with the GR D.  Not a lot going for it in diversity but it is an excellent unit with good tone out of the box.  The line/amp output selector is great for using it standalone through an FRFR or into a preamp.  Practical option that I am glad roland included.

For the music lovers who own an iPad, here is a best opportunity to learn playing guitar using their iPad along with its upcoming accessory. The latest iPad accessory is named as Ion Guitar Apprentice designed by Ion Audio, the company which brought iCade earlier. It is actually a guitar-shaped iPad accessory in which you can put your iPad inside and use it as the Guitar as you can see in the above image.
This is an amazing iPad accessory that can fulfil your dream to play a guitar. The Ion Guitar Apprentice features lots of things as learn-to-play-as-you-go light-up fretboard, in-built speakers along with a free guitar teaching app.
The Ion Audio's website describes the following features:
Full-scale guitar body with strap pegs
Fitted iPad holder with 30-pin dock connector
Lighted fretboard and free guitar-teaching app* teach you basic guitar skills
App includes built-in effects: distortion, reverb, flanger delay and more*
Built-in speaker with volume control — play anywhere!
Access to iPad headphone input for silent practice
Works with GarageBand and dozens of popular iPad apps
Core MIDI-compliant
As the last feature posted in this list as Core MIDI, it let you use the Apprentice with any iPad app including the GarageBand and more. The Ion Guitar Apprentice is not available yet, however, expected to be offered to the iPad users soon in this year after some time. The expected price at which the Ion Guitar Apprentice is to be offered is $100.




REVIEW

QuoteBy josepgrill on October 1, 2012
Verified Purchase
Just three days after arrival (only 3 and a half weeks since ordered, not the One To Four Months they scared me with ;-) it's been a kind of portable multitouch sensation, hardly played home, mostly at bars with stunned people laughing hard (included me) at my "retrofuturistic performance" (you know, playing retro style BeatleHendrixBowie with 21st century hardware, oh, yes, 21st Century Schizoid Man ;-) attracting everyone interest and curiosity, simply saying......SENSATIONAL!!!

BUT......it has his limitations, let's see:
*Possibly because my iPad is first gen, there's some noticeable delay on fingerpicking in Ion app, not that noticeable when strumming. But the main problem for me is the unbalance between tapped notes on neck keys (sorry, non sensitives to velocity) and the ones played on virtual strings or keys on the iPad (sensitive but even hitting hard, much softer)
*No string so no neck bending, but possible with virtual vibrato lever (whammy bar) (on Ion native poor-but-anyway-amazing guitar app) or MOD wheels (on some GarageBand sound, on all Music Studio ones, and on Korg's MS20), even by iPad acelerometer on MusicStudio, not only controling pitch but, alternatively, filters, modulations, arpegiattors etc, really fun to change the sound somehow by moving the whole guitar
*SoSo integration with GarageBand, for example you can't (at least I can't by now) assign a different sound to the neck keys and the iPad virtual keyboard (vkb), you can do that with MusicStudio, only few sounds on percussion sets, compared to one-key-one sound on MusicStudio, some strange behaviour on Smart instruments, well, maybe I'm being too exigent, GarageBand is what it is.... (and I <3 it!)
*Some sounds don't allow playing the same note on neck keys and iPad vkb, some do, I can't see why but maybe related to polyphony or so...
*Mmmmm, let's see, there's something more but...mmmm.....I can't remember (f* hangover!!!;-)

Well, I won't derise the product saying ¨just a toy" but if you REALLY want to play guitar, buy a real one. If you just want some learning-following-the-lighted-keys and some I-play-music-even-without-knowing-how fun, that the accesory you need (other than the iPad, of course). If you want a MIDI input for the iPad (that's what in essence it is) you'll have to accept the dinamic flattness of the non-sensitive neck keys, but if you don't play piano but guitar, is a giant step on finally sequencing with a "guitar (sort of)" without spending K$ on hexaphonic stuff. Other than that, you'll be centerstage wherever you appear with this, at least when they first see and hear it, probably when "everybody is got one" it'll be less sensational.

So, the one star missing is for its limitations as a REAL instrument, remember, more than a toy but far less than a professional instrument, but for the price an excellent value, the kids (and not so kids) will LOVE it.

I'll update when euphory passes, this weekend has been so hilarious I hardly can be objetive.....

Ah, one more thing.....the best musical moment of the weekend: soloing by tapping neck keys with left hand while "arppegiating" on GarageBand with right hand ...Groooooooooovy!

The Amazon Prime membership offers free shipping on this item, with a total price being $20.82, which is higher than the price shown in your link even when shipping is included. Even so, that very low price renders it still pretty much an impulse buy.

Download Eventide UltraChannel plug-in free
Dongle-free 64-bit channel strip with micro pitch and stereo delay available now
Eventide have announced the immediate availability of a new channel strip plug-in named the UltraChannel: a 64-bit native plug-in for AU, VST, and AAX64 for Mac and PC. It features micro pitch shift functionality from Eventide's flagship H8000, stereo delays with variable feedback paths, two stages of compression, gating, and five bands of parametric EQ. 

Most unusually, Eventide are making UltraChannel available as free download until midnight on July 8th, 2014. To claim your freebie, go to http://bit.ly/UltraChannel (http://bit.ly/UltraChannel) and copy and paste this Access Code: 0AA225EC. After the promo ends, UItraChannel native will cost $249.

The plug-in features a pair of dynamics processors: the O-Pressor, taken from the Omnipressor, which is capable of extreme compression, and a conventional compressor with de-essing and side-chain capability.

UltraChannel also offers soft-saturation, and transformer emulation which recreates transformer core saturation. Eventide describe this as adding harmonics to low frequency material while remaining relatively transparent to the rest of signal. The transformer emulation is intended to bring life to otherwise dull mixes and help glue disparate sound sources together. 

Drag and drop reordering of the signal path of top level components (O-Pressor, compressor/de-esser, EQ, Gate) is also possible.

NudeAudio Super M Kickstarter

Interesting take on a Bluetooth speaker since it has 6 drivers - 2 full range and a passive sub PER SIDE. Has aux in, is waterproof and sand proof, and small. I backed it just to see what it would be like with iPad amp models with the speakers on both sides like that. Could be like an open back combo but tighter (and obviously smaller)? We'll see. Still some available at $79 shipped (due in September).

QuoteI've be speaking to one of the guys at InMusic and he said they are different speakers. Here's the difference between the two :-

Alesis has 2.5" voice coil on low transducer instead of 2.0" on Alto
Alesis has 1.75" voice coil on high transducer instead of 1.0" on Alto
Alesis has 500 Watt continuous (350 + 150)/1000 Watt max (700 + 300w), Alto has 400 Watt continuous (335 + 75)/800 Watt max (670w + 130 W) amps
Alesis Frequency response is 51Hz-20kHz (-10db) 52Hz-20kHz (+3dB) and Alto is 54Hz-20kHz (-10dB) and 65Hz-19kHz (+3dB)
Alesis active crossover is set at 1.6kHz and Alto is 2.5kHz

The person I spoke to from InMusic said the Alesis Alpha was originally going to be released under Alto as a "pro" version of the Truesonic range but they found it too expensive to be commercially viable but as they had all the parts they released it under the Alesis Alpha label as to not confuse the Alto Truesonic range.

Apparently they sound like a more refined version of the Alto Truesonic range? I've ordered a pair of the Alesis Alpha 112's and will do a thorough a/b with my Alto TS112a's. Will report back to share my findings!


Ok quick update. The Alesis Alpha's arrived yesterday and I took them straight over to a 350 seater hall I run the sound for.
As expected the Alesis Alpha's look identical to the Alto's apart from the logo and weigh the same (as much as I could tell anyway).
I set both pairs of speakers up on tripods side by side and had them patched into my A&H QU16 desk. I used two of the stereo aux pairs to connect the speakers so that I could switch between them instantly with the push of one button. I played tracks from my ipad covering a wide range of genres as well as playing keyboards through them and solo vocal/speech.
First thing I noticed is that these speakers definitely sound different to each other. The Alesis were brighter and had less emphasis on the low mids. The Alesis also had a little more output than the Alto's. I set the output on both pairs of speakers to 12 o'clock but I noticed I needed less level on the fader of the Alesis channel to match the output of the Alto's. You can hear the result of the different HF driver and higher rated amp's.
During the listening tests I preferred some tracks on the Alto's (mainly acoustic music) and preferred the Alesis for heavy rock. The Alto's were my favourite for acoustic piano though the Alesis also sounded great. When it came to testing vocal's the Alesis had a little more detail and sounded clearer in the low mids. However, one really disappointing thing I noticed about the Alesis Alpha's was the loud amount of hiss these speakers produce compared to the Alto's! I would say it's between 2-3 times as loud as the Alto's and really noticable even at the back of the hall!! This is a real shame as the Alesis speakers are very nice sounding boxes. I've had some EV ZLX12p's and RCF 710a's here to try and I definitely preferred both the Alesis and Alto's tone to the EV's and at times the Alesis speakers reminded me of the more balanced sound of the RCF's (though I still preferred the RCF's voicing).
I spent a little time messing around with some simple channel eq'ing and with a gentle sloping boost of about 2db from 1-10kHz the Alto's really opened up and I preferred this sound to the sound of the Alesis Alpha's. More importantly I was able to do this without having the loud hiss of the Alphas's!
The Alto Truesonic 112a's stil remain my favourite budget pa speaker and I'm not aware of anything around this price that could compete with them. Next step up would be the Yamaha DXR12's (I've used these and own a pair of DXR15's) and RCF 712's etc but these cost a lot more than the £300 I paid for my Alto's! For a small budget acoustic pa the Alto's are working out great!

I ordered two and they just shipped today and will be here Thursday.

Here is a brief review http://www.gearslutz.com/board/live-sound/934066-alesis-alpha-active-speakers-improved-version-alto-truesonic.html (http://www.gearslutz.com/board/live-sound/934066-alesis-alpha-active-speakers-improved-version-alto-truesonic.html)

In that link I read that "Numark, Alesis, Alto, Denon Pro, Akai Pro, M-Audio are all part of inMusic Brands."

Does this mean that Avid no longer owns M-Audio? I note that there is nothing about "Pro Tools M-Powered" on the M-Audio site. Has Avid divested itself of all other divisions as part of its strategy to milk the DigiDesign / Pro Tools brand name for all it's worth?

July 2, 2012
QuoteAvid has agreed to sell its consumer audio and video product lines. The company's consumer audio products are being sold to inMusic, the parent company of Akai Professional, Alesis and Numark, among others. Headquartered in Cumberland, Rhode Island, inMusic's brands are best known for producing innovative products for music production, performance and DJing. The products involved in this transaction include M-Audio brand keyboards, controllers, interfaces, speakers and digital DJ equipment and other product lines. Avid will continue to develop and sell its industry-leading Pro Tools® line of software and hardware, as well as associated I/O devices including Mbox and Fast Track.

Separately, the company's consumer video editing line is being sold to Corel Corporation, a consumer software company headquartered in Ottawa, Canada. The products involved in this transaction include Avid Studio, Pinnacle Studio, and the Avid Studio App for the Apple iPad®, as well as other legacy video capture products.

The divested product lines contributed approximately $91 million of Avid's 2011 revenue of $677 million. As part of the transactions, certain employees of Avid will transfer to each acquiring company. Avid estimates that the proceeds from these transactions will be approximately $17 million, subject to closing inventory adjustment, with a portion held in escrow.  Both transactions are expected to close today, July 2, 2012.

Avid also plans to reduce the number of its employees as it streamlines operations, with approximately 20% of its permanent employee base impacted by the divestitures and headcount reduction plans.  The company currently expects to incur a restructuring charge of approximately $19 to $23 million related to these actions and other associated measures.

The company's cash balance on March 31, 2012 was $49.7 million. The proceeds from the sale of these product lines should offset most of the restructuring charges paid in 2012.

Oh my! That's very old news at this point! Well I have been boycotting Avid/DigiDesign because after they acquired Wizoo, they didn't let the Wizoo guys develop and release a patch for the Wizooverb multi-core bug. Wizooverb is a great, great sounding reverb.

Oh, well, if it comes to that, see https://store.makemusic.com/Store/Beyond.aspx for a $139 competitive upgrade to Finale, if you own Sibelius (or Encore, or several other competing products.) This has been available for some time now, but I am not sure that anyone has posted it here. Also, I am not sure that there is an expiration date for this offer, which could mean that it will be available for a long time, or that it could be withdrawn at any moment.

Like most other guitars, you can really find a great squire.  I was in guitar center, looking for a USB PC interface, and grabbed a guitar they had in the recording section.  I played it for about 45 minutes, while checking out the different interfaces.  I realized it was one of the best playing strats I've ever felt.  I looked at the tag, figuring it was an American strat.  To my surprise, it was a squire.  I bought it on the spot for somewhere around $100, and gave it to my son for his birthday.  The only caveat, is that they are hit and miss.  Sometimes you find a gem, but most of them are really bad.  I suggest going into GC and seeing if they have them in stock, and see if you can find a gem.  Even if they don't they have a good 30 day return policy.

Product description and full feature list

1920x1080 Full HD 60p  w/8.9MP Exmor R® CMOS Sensor

Create high definition 1920 x 1080 60p videos and high quality 8.9MP still images.   Experience stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced grain with Sony's back-illuminated Exmor®  R CMOS sensor. Designed for compact cameras and camcorders, the Exmor®R CMOS  sensor relocates the photo diodes above the support circuitry, maximizing the light gathering area per pixel so you can shoot with better results in lower lighting conditions.



Up to 6hr 25min recording with 16GB embedded Flash Memory1

The built-in 16GB1 embedded Flash memory can record and store up to 6 hours 25 minutes of high definition video footage (HD LP mode).



55x Extended Zoom to get even closer to the action

Extended Zoom works in conjunction with 30x optical zoom to get even closer to the action while maintaining HD image quality.



Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization w/ Active Mode

Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization with Active Mode compensates for greater degrees of camera shake to deliver stunningly smooth video from wide angle to full telephoto shooting. In addition, innovative 3-Way Shake-Canceling adds electronic roll stability for even smoother video capture.



3.0" wide Clear Photo™ LCD (230k) touch screen

The 3.0" (16:9) Clear Photo™ LCD touch screen (230K) displays sharp, bright, vivid images, letting you compose a shot more easily -- even outdoors, while enabling you to change settings to best represent the scene. Use the touchscreen to select faces and objects to keep in focus and monitor levels of exposure while you record.



Wide Angle G lens to capture more of what you want



Experience the pinnacle of Sony® lens technology with the professional-quality G Lens. Engineered for superior optical performance, Sony G lenses deliver brilliant, accurate color reproduction and sharp, amazingly detailed images. In addition, the 26.8mm focal length in Photo and Video Modes offers a broader perspective for enhanced wide angle shooting.



Expanded recording/monitoring with mic/headphone jack

Features dedicated mic and headphone inputs for expanded audio recording options and convenient monitoring of audio with headphones (external microphones and headphones sold separately).



Shoot high quality AVCHD or web optimized MP4 video

Select between HD video in the AVCHD or MP4 format for highest quality or easy transfer and sharing.

AVCHD provides premium video that can be enjoyed on large screen HDTVs, and is ideal for capturing precious memories at special occasions, family vacations and other moments you want to treasure for a lifetime.  MP4 is great for those moments that you want to quickly share on your social networks or store on the cloud.



Wind noise reduction for clear voice recording

Wind Reduction reduces noise and interference that is produced when wind passes over the microphone, giving you a clearer and more enjoyable sound experience.



Highlight Playback creates movies with transitions for you

Why spend hours editing your movies when you can let your camcorder do it for you? Highlight Playback identifies and compiles key scenes into a short, entertaining movie complete with music and transitions. You can even pinpoint the exact scene you want to include in the highlight reel.



Direct Copy to external HDD without PC13

Store your memories in a whole new way with the ability to copy videos from your camcorder directly to an external hard disk drive13 (sold separately), all without a computer. Your camcorder can also access videos stored on the external hard drive for playback on your HDTV4, allowing you to utilize the camcorder's handy playback features.



Built-in USB cable for easy file transfer/charge

The high-speed, built-in USB 2.0 cable allows for easy connection to your computer for charging or file transfer without having to remember separate cables.  It also fits conveniently into the hand strap so it's out of the way until you need it. Charging your camcorder is faster than ever now through the USB; for every two minutes of charge time you get one minute of recording time.



Intelligent Auto (180 different scene combinations possible)

Intelligent Auto mode goes a step beyond traditional auto modes by analyzing your shot and then automatically selecting the appropriate settings from ten distinct scene modes and wind noise reduction.  There are 180 different combinations possible: Portrait, Baby, Walk, Tripod , Backlight, Landscape, Spotlight, Twilight, Macro, Low light, Auto Wind Noise Reduction.  The camcorder utilizes an advanced sound processor and sophisticated noise reduction algorithms to reduce wind noise by up to 10db compared to other models. In addition to reducing low frequency noise, iAuto also suppresses mid- and upper-frequency noise, resulting in clearer, more enjoyable sound.

I have an Assymetrical Neck profile on my 2008 Gibson Dark Fire - not too thrilled about that, because I miss not having my pivot point on the back of the neck in the normal location for doing String bending vibratos.

One phenomena I observe is the best MF SDOTD deals seem to occur around the 1st of the month - (when monthly bills like rent is due!)

Statistically it seems to be orchestrated as an excess inventory reduction method, while the normal price kicks back in 24 hours later.

I doubt these will sellout today - and will pop back up as a SDOTD in a 6-8 weeks, or Nov 28 Black Friday sale   

FWIW -this SDOTD does not include free shipping.

In California I have to pay tax too - the total for the deal with the Footswitch was $399+ $39.99 shipping + Tax = $479

"California Classic" Solid Body Electric Guitar - Black

You know it when you hear it. That distinctive California Classic sound made famous by artists like Dick Dale, David Gilmour, and Ritchie Blackmore. Whether it is the surf, blues, psychedelic rock, country, or classic hard rock, this California Classic Solid Body Electric Guitar from Monoprice is the perfect axe for your daily practice and performance needs.

This full-sized, 22-fret guitar features a double-cutaway body made of basswood, a bolt-on maple neck, a rosewood fingerboard, and chrome machine heads/tuning pegs. It uses three single-coil pickups in the bridge, middle, and neck positions. A five-position selector switch allows you to use each of the three pickups individually, while the 2 and 4 positions combine the neck and bridge pups with the middle one for that distinctive "quack" sound. A tremolo/whammy bar is included for note bending.

Before it gets shipped to you, each Monoprice guitar undergoes a setup, tuning, and inspection process by Master Luthier Roger Gresco here in Southern California. The setup ensures that the neck is straight, the action is right, and that it will stay in tune. Additionally, it comes with everything you need to get started, including strings (installed), the tremolo/whammy bar, a heavy-duty zippered black gig bag with shoulder strap, and a truss-rod wrench.

Now that I find myself using the Kemper or iPad more often than my GK stuff, this is actually tempting.  But are the new Variax's any more reliable/durable than the old ones?  I've been shying away from GK because the cable spooks me, but a randomly failing piezo element is actually far worse.  And all of my Variax's came around to that eventually.

IMHO the yellow Boss pedal you sent back blows away all the sounds available in the black guitar above

But if you need a grab & go with occasional Alt Tunings  - the JTV is ideal - I still find use for mine

I've never heard a JTV, but I prefer the GR-55 COSM guitars over my old Variax 300/500 models by a good margin.  So I'd probably do well to avoid the Variax regardless; I was just curious as to whether they still break as frequently.
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: Elantric on October 17, 2014, 10:36:51 AM
QuoteI was just curious as to whether they still break as frequently.

about the same - my JTV-69 had to visit Line6 for repairs 2 times when 1st purchased (Neck flaws) ,  and my JTV-59 1 time (bad PU selector switch) 18 months after purchase. They covered under warranty - but I had to pay shipping and own a backup guitar while the JTV was off being repaired - about a 10-12  day turnaround 

add that Variax Li-Ion batteries die soon when left on the hot stage after sound check at an outdoor summer show -    so these are not recommended for folks who can only afford one guitar on tour, or have room for only 1 guitar (need a  backup)

Line-6 is does not sell schematics to non Line-6 service centers.  so most independent guitar repairmen will not touch a variax for electronics repair.

Mark, If you don't need a trem, I've got a brand new JTV89 in the box, for $685, I'll even through in a used Line 6 XTlive to act as a switcher.

PC-maker Dell has decided to use Microsoft's "end of sales" mandate to promote a last-ditch Windows 7 PC clearance blowout, it's likely that some computer sellers will continue to unload stock of old Windows 7 computers beyond Oct. 31. Microsoft will continue "mainstream support" for Windows 7 until Jan. 13, 2015, and roll out "extended support" (usually just patches for security threats) until Jan. 14, 2020.


Just days before Microsoft orders OEMs to stop building new PCs with Windows 7 Home Premium, Dell tried one last time to spur sales using the lure of the five-year-old consumer OS.

In a banner that ran on its website over the weekend, Dell promoted Windows 7 systems with the tagline, "Windows 7 for the win," and discounts of up to 30% in a sale that runs until early Thursday.

Dell listed nine notebook and desktop PCs that come equipped with Windows 7 Home Premium, the consumer-grade version that is to be retired by computer makers on Friday, Oct. 31. The least expensive is an Inspiron 15-in. laptop discounted by 26% to $399, the most expensive a 17-in. notebook reduced 21% to $899.99.

Meanwhile, the two other OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) in the top three worldwide -- No. 1 Lenovo and No. 2 Hewlett-Packard -- barely bothered with Windows 7 Home Premium: Lenovo showed none for sale on its U.S. online store, while HP offered just one equipped with the consumer operating system.

Earlier this year, Microsoft set Oct. 31 as the end-of-sales date for new Windows 7 PCs. Before that, the company had first posted the date, then retracted it, then restored it only for consumer systems. Microsoft left the date blank for the halt of Windows 7 Professional installed on new PCs, saying only it was "not yet established."

In February, Microsoft said it would give a one-year notice before it demanded that OEMs stop selling PCs with Windows 7 Professional. Under that rule -- and since Microsoft has yet to deliver the promised warning -- computer makers will be able to continue selling PCs with Windows 7 Professional until at least late October 2015.

An even longer extension is likely: Although the new Windows 10 will be shipping by then, business will be hesitant to immediately move to the new OS. Gartner, for example, has said that most enterprises won't start migrating to Windows 10 until 2016 at the earliest.

With corporations turning a cold shoulder to Windows 8 -- and the ability to conduct "in-place" upgrades from Windows 7 to Windows 10 -- it's probable that those customers will want to continue to purchase Windows 7 Professional PCs after October 2015, and that Microsoft will let OEMs oblige.

It's not surprising that OEMs continue to market Windows 7-based machines, or that Microsoft has extended their use of Windows 7 Professional by almost 12 months so far. PC sales have been in a multi-year slump and neither OEMs nor Microsoft will pass up selling systems, even if that means the computers run an OS that has exhausted nearly half its 10-year support cycle.

That cycle will be one downside to buying a new PC with Windows 7, as Microsoft will stop serving security updates on Jan. 14, 2020. On the plus side, the company has promised that Windows 7 PCs will be upgradeable to Windows 10. It's unknown whether Microsoft will charge for Windows 7-to-Windows 10 upgrades, although analysts expect it to hand Windows 10 upgrades to Windows 8.1 users free of charge.

Because of the extension of Windows 7 Professional PC sales through at least October 2015, Microsoft's computer-making partners will have the ability to equip new systems with three different operating systems -- Windows 7, Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 -- for at least several months next year as the retirement and release dates overlap.

These policies may be made moot, however, by Windows 10, which most believe will be sold and maintained for much longer than past editions, just as Apple has stuck with the OS X nameplate -- pronounced "OS Ten" -- indefinitely.

Windows 8 also faces an approaching deadline: On October 31, retail sales of the 2012 original are to stop, although sales of Windows 8.1 can continue. PCs with Windows 8 may still come off the factory lines -- Microsoft has not set an OEM end-of-sales date -- but that is irrelevant as the denigrated OS has been supplanted by Windows 8.1 on most new machines.

My 2 cents - avoid a 16 GB Ipad at all costs - it will be extremely cramped and not very useful

The 32GB models are the minimum storage size to consider.

http://www.computerworld.com/article/2846820/black-friday-deals-reveal-deep-ipad-discounts.html (http://www.computerworld.com/article/2846820/black-friday-deals-reveal-deep-ipad-discounts.html)
U.S. retailers will mark down Apple's iPad with steep discounts this Black Friday, according to store circulars and a retail analyst.

Best Buy, which published deals for Black Friday -- the day after the Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S. -- on Tuesday, will discount all models of the just-released iPad Air 2 by $100 and cut prices of the smaller iPad Mini 3 by $75, dropping the entry-level configurations to $400 and $325, respectively.

FEATURED RESOURCE


The electronics chain will also sell last year's iPad Air, but will not reveal prices until Nov. 20, a week before sales start.

Meanwhile, Target's specials will include a $140 store gift card with the purchase of a 16GB iPad Air 2 (which lists for $499), a $100 card with a 16GB iPad Mini 3 or iPad Air ($399 each), and an $80 card with a 16GB non-Retina iPad Mini ($249).

With the included gift cards -- which can only be used for other purchases at Target -- the effective price of the iPad Air 2 will be $359, those of the iPad Mini 3 or iPad Air $299 each, and that of 2012's original iPad Mini just $169.

Stephen Baker, an analyst with the NPD Group, expects Walmart to undercut even Target's prices. "I am betting that Walmart does a $149 or lower [first-generation] Mini and a $279 first-generation Air," Baker said in an email yesterday.


On Wednesday, Walmart didn't dive as deep into discounts as Baker had bet. The giant retailer revealed its Black Friday deals today: a 2013 16GB iPad Air for $397 along with a $100 store gift card (effective price $297), and a 2012-era non-Retina 16GB iPad Mini for $199 with a $30 gift card (effective price $169).

The discounts didn't surprise Baker, who last month pointed out that the iPad struggled throughout 2014 in the U.S., with retail unit sales down 16% in the year's first 40 weeks when compared to the year before.

In order to keep sales going -- and to use the iPad as a draw to get customers into stores -- retailers cut prices during the back-to-school season, turning the overall 16% downturn into a 3% year-over-year unit sales increase during that important selling stretch.

The unit sales growth came at a price, however, a literal one. According to NPD's data, the 3% uptick in iPads sold during back-to-school resulted in 10% less revenue when compared to 2013's similar season.

"The volume pressures will be enormous," Baker predicted in an Oct. 20 blog, of the need to move tablets, iPads included, by cutting prices in the final quarter.

After Apple launched the new iPad Air 2 and iPad Mini 3 last month, Baker forecast that the Cupertino, Calif. company's list prices for its earlier-generation models would not be maintained at retail.

"The iPad Mini pricing at $249 will not hold," Bakers said. "Three times this year major U.S. retailers have advertised it at $199. Those three weeks alone accounted for almost 20% of all iPad Mini sales in 2014, both regular and Retina displays, and were, by far, the three highest-selling weeks for iPads year-to-date."


Nor would prices of the more expensive 9.7-in. iPad Air stand, Baker said. "The iPad Air -- last year's model -- will not hold its price at $399 either; large tablets are even more competitive today than small ones," he wrote.

Those pressures, Baker said, were one reason why Apple extended the iPad line's price bands by retaining the two-year old original iPad Mini. For all its premium positioning, Apple isn't immune to the troubles facing tablet makers in the U.S.

"Aggressive pricing at the entry-level is a must for Apple," Baker said.

Great sound, but not video. Not worth it
By SuzyP
from Buffalo, NY

I bought this item to capture celebrity interviews at the NAMM show. I had been really wound up with high expectations. The sound quality is absolutely impeccable. The housing is pretty sturdy, I like the size of it too, you can hold it comfortably. The first thing I didnt like is the choppy zoom. Second, I taped BONZOs jam with celebs doing a Zep tribute and the image is horrible. Pasty, lack of detail, not crisp. I spoke to the Tascam people at the NAMM show and indicated my feelings, they admitted that it was their first shot at taking what was already great (sound recording) and adding video. They agree there is room for improvement. I visited the ZOOM booth and was delighted to see something better for just better than half the price.
Additionally, I didn't like the long time it takes to power up. Im pretty instantaneous, when you have Brian Tichy in front of you and you can do an interview, you want UP and ready NOW ... this unit does not do that. I have a Cisco flip video Ive been using for years and I love it.. I expected this to be a beefy, fast, bells and whistles unit... and though it's beefy, it's sluggish and Im just not happy with it.

In the UK GuitarGuitar and Andertons have slashed the price of the Roland G-5 VG Stratocaster from £1,049 to £549, which is a pretty big drop, so I'm guessing they will shortly be discontinued. If only they would offer a similar price cut on the GC-1 I might be tempted

Wow I think I might grab a voluum and a wahoo!



sonuus   
Music Products Designed in the UK
Hello,

It's Black Friday tomorrow and we've put together some irresistable offers for you. So if you've been considering getting a new Sonuus product, there is no better time to do it. Treat yourself to a new toy, or buy that perfect Christmas gift.

These offers are only available for one day, via Sonuus Direct. Prices will be active from 10pm UK-time tonight (Thursday 27 November 2014), until 10am UK time Saturday 29 November 2014). This should mean you don't miss the special prices, regardless of which time zone you are in.



Sonuus G2M only £37 Universal MIDI Converter for Guitar.

Sonuus B2M only £37 Universal MIDI Converter for Bass.

Sonuus i2M musicport only £47 Universal MIDI Converter for Guitar/Bass/Voice and USB Audio Interface.

Sonuus Wahoo only £127 Analogue Multi-Effect (wah pedal, auto wah, envelope filter, phaser, etc).

Sonuus Voluum only £127 Analogue Multi-Effect (gate, compressor, tremolo, volume, limiter, etc.).



All UK orders include free shipping and we can ship worldwide (shipping costs are calculated when you check-out).

All prices include UK VAT (at 20%). If you are outside the EU, you don't pay this.

Remember: these prices won't be active until 10pm tonight (UK time). Our current special Christmas prices will be shown until then
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: mbenigni on November 27, 2014, 08:34:00 PM
Re the sonuus deals above...  When you remove vat, then convert from pounds to dollars, then tack on $25 shipping (!) the voluum and wahoo work out to be about $209 each for US buyers. Still a great deal vs the $300-$350 you typically see, provided the pedals are decent of course.

I wanted both but couldn't justify $420 for pedals I've never tried. Decided to go with the voluum since I've never been a big wah guy. I figure between the vol pedal, compression, tremolo, and noise gate there's enough utility there to justify the price, even before I get into the wild ADSR etc possibilities.
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: Elantric on November 27, 2014, 08:47:04 PM
Thanks for sharing.

Post a review of Sonuus Voluum !

Sonuus Wahoo seems worth it for preset #61 "Synth Beat" alone.

Full 5 pin MIDI I/O control 100 presets and USB MIDI Class compliant with MIDI over USB is great

And a GUI Editor for Mac/PC.

Yeah they both look like cool, innovative pedals IMO, but I can't have 'em all. ;)  I've bought lots of cool stuff over the years that I just don't wind up using for whatever reason. Gotta pick your battles...

Will definitely post a review when the voluum arrives!

And on that note...  I hemmed and hawed all weekend, and finally broke down and ordered the Wahoo as well.   ::)  I actually considered cancelling the Voluum, but it had already shipped, and then all of the rave reviews about the Wahoo got to me, and... in summary... I must be out of my mind.

Anyway, I figure I'll play them both to see which (if either) will have any practical application in my rig, and if they don't work out it shouldn't be too hard to get back what I paid.  So make that two reviews.   ;D

Guitarcenter has a promo they're calling Black Friday II.  Their price on the Fishman TriplePlay is the best I've ever seen, $265.40.  http://www.guitarcenter.com/Fishman-TriplePlay-Wireless-Guitar-Controller-108750076-i2944624.gc (http://www.guitarcenter.com/Fishman-TriplePlay-Wireless-Guitar-Controller-108750076-i2944624.gc)

Also, they've got some t.c. electronic TonePrint pedals that I would have thought were ProGuitarShop exclusives at sale prices: AlterEgo x4 (~tricked out Flashback x4) for $179.99, AlterEgo2 (~Flashback) and T2 (~Hall of Fame) for $99.  The stock presets on these three tend to be modulation heavy, the sort of sounds favored by dream pop and shoegaze folks, so these might be a bit much for some people looking for more naturalistic delay and reverb sounds.  But the prices are fantastic if that is your thing.

Upgrade Avid Pro Tools | Software by 12/31/14 &
Get 16-Months of Upgrades & Extended Support!


Avid Pro Tools | Software Annual Standard Support Plan Renewal and Upgrade
As of Jan 1 2015, all Pro Tools software upgrades will be discontinued in lieu of new support plan offerings. The support plans will only cover Pro Tools 9 (regular $299 and HD $599) and above.  If you have Pro Tools Express, Pro Tools le or Pro Tools M-Powered the only way they will be able to get to the latest version is by purchasing a new perpetual license ($899 for Pro Tools and Support Bundle, Eleven Rack or an Apogee/Pro Tools Bundle) or getting on a subscription plan ($299 for annual subscription or $29.99/month for a monthly subscription).
This will get you upgraded to Pro Tools 11 and also give you Avid ProTools Standard Support through March 2016, which will include free software upgrades that come out within that time period. 
There are only a few weeks left to get up to 16 months* of future upgrades and extended support when you upgrade to Pro Tools® 11 or Pro Tools | HD 11—or, if you own Pro Tools 11, buy a renewable Pro Tools | Software annual upgrade and support plan (coming soon).
$199.00

* To be eligible for the extended Pro Tools | Software upgrade and support plan through March 31, 2016, you must either purchase and activate a Pro Tools 11/Pro Tools | HD 11 upgrade, or purchase and activate an annual upgrade and support plan for Pro Tools | Software, by December 31, 2014. Qualifying "upgrade" products include Pro Tools 9/10, Pro Tools | HD 9/10, Pro Tools with the Complete Production Toolkit, or Pro Tools LE (except Mbox 1st generation, and Digi 001), Pro Tools Express, or Pro Tools MP/M-Powered. Upgrades and support plans activated after December 31st will receive one year of upgrades and support from the time of purchase/activation.

Much to my surprise, when I imput the 2 almost 3 yr old activation code, It activated Pro Tools 11, am I a happy  camper or what! I thought I was ghonna have to shell out another $199 for that plus $39 for a new iLok and that worked as well 8) ;D

Over at the Monoprice website they're currently running a special on their "Route 66" (Les Paul style) gold top guitars. These are inexpensive guitars that play and sound more like mid priced guitars. They're well reviewed over on the website and I've found the reviews to be quite fair. Not gushy or overly critical. Their regular price is $139.05 but they're on special for $119.58. I don't know how long the special is going to last but I'll be ordering mine later and I'll probably use it as a modding platform. These guitars would also come in handy if you don't want to use your good guitar with your GK or Triple Play pickup.

These monoprice guitars are a great buy even if you want to use them as wall art or an end table.
I recently pulled the trigger on a Chibson Slash Knock-off  ($226) just out of curiosities sake, but from a cost perspective I may make the end table from a monoprice.
A local guy was making tables out of no-name strats and I though they were pretty cool.  Unfortunately I don't have any great pics of his best work but these are some of them.
The neck is cut on a 45 and and the strings are spot welded around the 16th fret or so.  Looks better in person but he sells them for around $900 and I'd be damned to pay that.

Monoprice has the sunburst finished "California Classic" (Strat style) electric guitar on special right now for $71.42: http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=115&cp_id=11501&cs_id=1150101&p_id=610103&seq=1&format=2 (http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=115&cp_id=11501&cs_id=1150101&p_id=610103&seq=1&format=2)

They've also recently started listing their "B" stock guitars, which, because of blemishes, scratches, dents, etc. are even lower in price than the "A" stock.  From the website: "Our B-Stock guitars are guaranteed to perform as well as our new guitars, including the same full set-up process. The only difference is that our B-Stock guitars have cosmetic blemishes, which may include dents, scratches, chips, or inconsistent paint finish. They carry the same warranty as our new guitars, so you can return them within 30 days if they do not perform to your satisfaction."

You can check those out here: http://www.monoprice.com/Category?c_id=115&cp_id=11501&cs_id=1150106 (http://www.monoprice.com/Category?c_id=115&cp_id=11501&cs_id=1150106)

B-Grade Stock Bargains
We've cleared out our warehouse and checked through all the B-Grade stock we have and now it's ready for sale -- at great prices.

All B-Grade stock is fully guaranteed, just like a new product, but it won't be quite as pristine as a new one (but most are very close). These products have either been returned for repair (and fully repaired and tested), used for demos, or have damaged packaging (some boxes are a bit crushed).

All these B-grade offers are available on Sonuus Direct. With free UK shipping on all orders and we can ship worldwide (shipping costs are calculated when you check-out).

All prices include UK VAT (at 20%). If you are outside the EU, you don't pay this.

Sonuus G2M (Original Version 1) only £20 Universal MIDI Converter for Guitar.

Sonuus G2M (Current version) only £37 Universal MIDI Converter for Guitar.

Sonuus B2M only £37 Universal MIDI Converter for Bass.

Sonuus i2M musicport only £47 Universal MIDI Converter for Guitar/Bass/Voice and USB Audio Interface.

Sonuus Wahoo only £137 Analogue Multi-Effect (wah pedal, auto wah, envelope filter, phaser, etc).

Note that we have some original "version 1" G2Ms. This was superceded a few years ago with the new "version 2" G2M. This original version is the perfect introduction to MIDI guitar at an incredible price.

Remember that quantities of all B-Stock items are limited, so if you want one, get it now.

Simple Wi-Fi Connection Without a Router
   The DR-22WL and DR-44WL connect to your smartphones directly. There is no need for a Wi-Fi router network or other external equipment. Wi-Fi connections can be established simply by following the directions in the app. Connection status is displayed with an LED on the unit as well as on the app screen. Even if the WiFi connection is interrupted, recording will not stop.
Wireless Streaming to Monitor the Recorder
   With DR Control, audio from the DR-22WL and DR-44WL can be broadcast via Wi-Fi to your smartphone for streaming playback. Even when the DR-22WL and DR-44WL is in a place that is out of reach, this capability allows you to check audio from the headphone jack. Ensure that you're getting the sound you want without leaving your seat. * The streaming playback function is intended for checking audio that has already been recorded.
Share audio files from SoundCloud to other social networking services
iTunes App Store Google Play Store
After recording, transfer your files from the recorder to your smartphone using the TASCAM DR Control app. Files can be uploaded directly to SoundCloud, then you can share that link to Facebook, Twitter, or Google+ timelines with a single button. A free SoundCloud account can be created, giving you up to three hours of uploaded recordings.

40% Off All PreSonus Software Valentine's Day Weekend—Just Because We Love You
February 13,2015
Sweetheart_300x300_Flyer_2-5-15
It's been said—and sung—that money can't buy love. Centuries of research put into disproving the theory have yet to make a strong case. But something nobody talks—or sings—about is the fact that the inverse is totally true: fact is love can save you money.
And it's in that spirit of fiscal tenderness that... oh, geez. Look, I don't know how to put this, and I've wanted to tell you for a long time—ever since that first install—but I like you. I mean I really like you, and what with Valentine's day right around the corner and everything... I just think we were kinda meant to be together. I hope you feel the same way.
Just so you know I'm serious, here's 40% off of my software—that includes Studio One Producer, Studio One Professional, and Notion. Also, know that my earlier offer for Studio One Artist and Progression 3 at $20.15 still stands.
I hope you don't think I'm crazy, but I just couldn't keep these feelings locked inside any longer. Thanks for hearing me. You don't need to answer right now—but I'll need to know by midnight on February 16, 2015.

I've been meaning to get current on GR, just took advantage of this sale. 

I was able to get an 'upgrade' for $69, due to my 2008 purchase of the Gibson Darkfire!   (Woohoo, I got $30 back on that investment!)

If i could only own one - I prefer GR5 ( and at $99 its a deal  - if you dont already own GR5 as part of N.I. Komplete) 

-GR-5 has lots of features - full MIDI Remote control, loopers, recorders  - its a must have app.

I got the GC March sale flier in the mail yesterday.  From March 1 through March 16, they will have the Kustom PA50 powered speakers on sale for $69.  I've been using one to audition GR-55 patches at home, and have even used it as a monitor at some gigs.  It's small, lightweight, and loud enough for those applications (althought i don't play with a drummer).  There is some breakup when you really crank it, but for the 70 bucks, it's a great deal.

I'm going to pick up a second one so I can leave one set up at home (I have it mounted) and just grab the other one to go.

:)  I went crazy with these during a Guitar Center blowout a couple of years ago.  Bought one at a similar price and was so impressed I went back and got two more.  I had this idea of leaving them scattered around the house so I'd have easy monitoring for practicing anywhere.  It looks pretty cool with a Kemper sitting on top of it (nano stack LOL) and sounds a lot better than you'd think.

FWIW - last year I purchased my VoiceLive3 from TC Helicon dealer on Ebay for  $550 - but I was motivated by the free FX150 monitor via mail in rebate that was in effect last year.

but my 1st one was D.O.A. "dead on arrival.

I contacted Staples on Monday and they promptly sent me another for free  - and my 2nd arrived today at lunch, this one works great !

I got it for the utility

  - Use its room filling Bluetooth stereo speakers my iPhone / iPad  - there is a rear 3.5mm Aux input - so I can use it for low volume room practice with GP-10's headphone output feed   

  - Use its full size keyboard for typing on  my iPhone / iPad - keys feel just like a genuine Apple keyboard - but not backlit 


and it comes with 5VDC @ 5AMP power supply - so it can charge  iPhone 6 Plus / iPad Air  promptly

at $17.99 - its a good value!

IK Multimedia are one of the developers who have consistently made a big push with iOS and they are pretty keen when it comes to the occasional sale (good news for those looking to build their iOS music app collections). AmpliTube is the current target of their sale strategy....
The base app itself is currently available at a very modest UK£3.99 and there are some bargains to be had in the various IAPs. The all-inclusive bundles are all currently reduced in price, while the Loop Drummer 'all style' packs are also being offered on sale...   depending upon what you opt for, there are savings of up to 70% to be made over the usual pricing.

http://apps4idevices.com/read/drumkick.html (http://apps4idevices.com/read/drumkick.html)

DrumKick is the only stereo drum app that allows you to play the kick drum with your foot!

With DrumKick installed on two iOS devices, such as an iPad and an iPhone, you can use the iPhone as a Bluetooth remote to play the kick drum with your foot! It also works with two iPhones or iPod touches. Or, you can mix and match.

How does it work?

Playing the virtual kick drum pedal is achieved by inserting the iPhone (upside down) into a snug fitness band that's wrapped around your ankle, or the front tube of your relatively clean crew sock. Tap your toes with your heel down, and the iPhone's accelerometer will trigger the kick drum sound on the iPad via Bluetooth.

Feature Highlights:

• Play the kick drum sound with your foot, using a second iOS device via Bluetooth.

• High-quality drum stereo sounds with independent control of their volume, pitch and pan levels.

• Low-latency with drum taps and sounds.

• Retina-enhanced, interactive, 3-D animated drums and cymbals.

• Optimized for iPad Air 2 and iPhone 5s.

• Multiple tap regions for triggering different drum and cymbal sounds.

• Ability to switch the drum kit's audio output from stereo to mono when connected to stereo speakers, such as a P.A. system.

• Touch-hold on the crash cymbal for a choked cymbal* muting effect.

• Audiobus & Inter-App Audio support (iOS7+) for adding effects apps to DrumKick's output and recording into to GarageBand, Loopy, or AudioShare.

• Core MIDI IN & OUT support, thanks to Nic Grant of Audeonic Apps for his robust MidiBus Library (http://midib.us (http://midib.us)) and generous help.

• Jam along with music apps that run in the background, such as GarageBand, Pandora, or your iPod music library.

• Minimum requirements: iPad 1, iPhone 3Gs, and iPod touch (3rd generation), running iOS 4.3 through iOS 7. Although this version states iOS 7 only, you can still download the prior iOS 7 build of DrumKick, which runs on iOS 4.3 - iOS 6.1. iPad 2, iPhone 4S and newer devices are recommended.

* No cymbals were harmed during the making of this app.

DrumKick is not just for professionals. Kids and toddlers love playing it, too! The best part about it is volume control and the headphone jack!

Please feel free to rate and review DrumKick in the App Store. As an independent developer, your feedback will allow me to make further improvements, and make DrumKick the best drum app that I can.

Note: If you have an issue or find a bug within DrumKick, please do not inform me about it in an App Review, since that method doesn't provide your contact information. For help and support, please send an email to:

feedback@drumkickapp.com

Known issues:

1. Missing UI panel for controlling the playback and recording from an Inter-App Audio connected app.

2. The right crash cymbal's glow does not disappear upon exiting drum edit mode. Simply tap on a different cymbal or drum to turn it off.

I use one of these Clip On Headstock pickups when performing accurate Latency tests for any Guitar Processor - this captures the initial guitar pitch on storage oscilloscope Channel#1, and I feed the output from any DSP Guitar processor, Guitar to MIDI system into Channel #2, and measure the time difference.

Project Amp 2x12 four 6L6GC Tube Amp  $90 with free shipping

Bugera 6262-212 120W 2x12 Tube Guitar Combo Amp   

http://www.musiciansfriend.com/amplifiers-effects/bugera-6262-212-120w-2x12-tube-guitar-combo-amp/j21721?CJAID=10381297&CJPID=404255#productDetail (http://www.musiciansfriend.com/amplifiers-effects/bugera-6262-212-120w-2x12-tube-guitar-combo-amp/j21721?CJAID=10381297&CJPID=404255#productDetail)

Loads of midrange, perfect for '80s rock and metal.
The gain structure and tone character of the 6262-212 is built on the same fundamentals as the 6260, but has more midrange, making it perfect for '80s rock and metal. You also get full control of EQ, Presence and Reverb on both channels.

A lot of amp manufacturers call their Treble/Mid/Bass knobs tone controls, but Bugera calls theirs EQ because they spent a lot of time making sure that they each have a unique character. Treble really screams; Mid puts you about six rows into the audience; Low can add more growl than an angry Kodiak bear.

The Presence control is tailored to smooth out your tone or add enough bite to cut through any cymbal. It can bring new life to darker sounding instruments.

Like several other Bugera models, 6262-212 has a modern studio digital reverb to avoid unwanted rumble from vintage springs when you're on a heavily vibrating stage. Bugera auditioned literally hundreds of 24-bit reverb patches and finally settled on a favorite that they thought would be perfect for both lead and rhythm playing. The result is way more versatile and usable.

This model does not feature Infinium technology.

Sometimes when they blow something out it sells out so fast that their system does not catch up with the actual inventory count remaining.

I gave it a shot (and missed out), but from the recent reviews you had about a 50/50 shot of the thing dying within the first hour  ;D

I had already played 5 examples of these 2 months ago at a Guitar Center in Oxnard, and thought the Necks were nice and chunky, felt like a Warmoth '59 profile  - as I prefer.

But this example I obtained during last weeks' GC sale arrived today - and its nothing like the ones I played before, the neck is way too thin  around .685 inch thick - I hate it.



I'll either carve it up and route big holes in the rear and use it as a Guitar pickup demonstrator - or gift it to my local Guitars not Guns - or raffle it off at my next big gig.

Anyone considering the G-board - I recently bought one and the USB port was broken off the main board
Could be a common issue

.....also it suffers from the same issue as rig kontrol 3 with very loud foot switches - I suspect it might be a dust collector - shame as the form factor is really nice

Man missed that, I spent the $25 and feel like it was well worth the money. I had already bought two of the packages on their own and was very pleased that since I bought those two it took the price ($8) off from the $25, very nice.

I believe the confusion is there are Ten different flavors of Session band

If upgrade within the app - I believe you are only adding new tunes for the specific genre you have opened.

iTunes IOS Store  has become a bit smarter lately - I already owned five versions of Session band already, but was able to "Complete my Bundle" today on iTunes for only $12.99

IOS FCB1010 midi foot controller programmer - free for limited period (from the old midi guitar yahoo group)

Folks -- a little bit off the pure MIDI guitar theme, but hopefully relevant. I've wrapped up my FCB1010 programmer; the FCB1010 is a MIDI foot pedal from Behringer. The app works with the stock Behringer firmware (no Uno chips, or any of that jazz). We're making it free for a few days, so if this is something you'd be interested, now would be a good time to grab it. Many thanks to the folks on this list for feedback (particularly Mel from Wabbit Wanch, who's behind the excellent iFCB for the Mac).

Boss 3 for 2 Deal.
Not sure how long the deal's been a thing or if everyone would know about it already, but I thought it was worth sharing.
By the way I cannot see any links to the American deal, so I guess it's Europe only.

Boss 3 for 2

At Boss, we keep things simple. Over the past few decades we've developed iconic effect pedals that give guitarists what they need; no-nonsense tone that delivers, night after night, year after year. And if you buy any two Boss pedals from participating European Boss retailers between October 1st and November 16th, we'll send you a third pedal for free. Scroll down and start building your perfect Boss pedal board – although with 48 different pedals to choose from you might want to make a cup of coffee.

purchased this guitar in Canada for 229$ probably cheaper in the USA. Makes for a great travel guitar or for a child. Really plays nice. only drawback are the tuners are cheap.

APXT2 from Yamaha is a 3/4 size of the world best-selling acoustic-electric guitar, APX500II. This fun, yet well-constructed compact guitar makes a great company when you are on a road. APXT2 features ART-based pickup system and a Yamaha's proprietary tuner with great sensitivity and accuracy for quick tuning. Accessory includes a gigbag.

Musician's Friend lowered price of Godin ACS-SA Natural to $885.  Add the 20% off coupon, comes to $708.
Hey everyone,
I highly recommend taking advantage of this, you'll love it; if the gear van ran over it I'd replace it in a minute!
Beautiful neck, plays effortlessly (it's a nylon with a 1 7/8 nut) and the RMC Hex system is awesome through GR-55/VG-99 or whatever 13 pin device you favour.
This model has the thin contoured body with no major chambers (except for those needed for the electronics).  It's also produced the ACS SA Slim version (1 11/16 nut) and also as the ACS Grand Concert version with slightly thicker semi-acoustic chambered body.
Mine is from '99 and has a special edition Flamed Maple top and Ebony fingerboard (totally lucked out fluke on sale of rental gear at my local big box music store). Godin has now changed production over to 'Richlite' (phenolic resin) fingerboard, but then so have a lot major guitar producers cause of growing scarcity and cost of Ebony.  Except for the ownership/cachet of Ebony it shouldn't make any significant difference in playabilty and the RMC electronic will have Richard's latest updated preamp.
-BTW, I don't work for Godin-

But I prefer the "CKS" (see above) as that has side binding on the neck (easier to see the fret markers in low light)  and looks more vintage with dot fretboard inlays


Review on Dean Colt CKS
http://www.seymourduncan.com/forum/showthread.php?267002-Dean-Colt (http://www.seymourduncan.com/forum/showthread.php?267002-Dean-Colt)
QuoteMy mini review of the Colt: very nicely made semi-hollow. The feel and craftsmanship is awesome. The pickups were dull (no biggie, I usually swap them anyhow), the piezo was a little too low-volume to mix well with the pickups, and the body block was a little too big for my taste—it basically sounded and felt like a solidbody—but that is totally a personal preference.

I ended up returning it and found a Yamaha AES1500 which is near-hollow (small block under the bridge / stop tail), 2" deep, & 25.5" scale.

If you are looking for a very nice semi-hollow on a budget, the Colt gives you a whole lot of guitar for the money IMO. It would be a knock out player once you put in some real pickups.

QuoteOne the guys attending the modeler shoot out I was at recently have the that Dean Colt in black. Hard to see - but it's the one the guy in the black T is playing in the first picture.

He rebuild it a little. Didn't like the piezo - so he took that out. And build in a Roland GK pickup instead. He uses it as his main gigging guitar through a Roland GR-55 and a Line 6 Pod 500X. And the pickups are changed to PAF 36th anniversary.

As him I also like the 25,5" scale better and this was definetly one of the better semis I have tried. I would take it over an Agile any day.

QuoteI have one. :) I couldn't find any reviews online either, so I sort of took a chance, and ordered one factory direct. VERY happy I did! :)

It has replaced my Gibson ES137 as my main guitar, which was what I hoped for - I never quite could get along with the 24.75, and the lack of "snap" that I love with the fender scale. This guitar delivers exactly that, the resulting playing feel, and a very nice action too.

Pros: Great clear acoustic sound. Very articulate and punchy. Really good fretwork, nice low action, without buzzing.

Cons: The piezo and the pickups suck. No two ways around it, but I was expecting that. I ripped out all the electronics, replaced it with Bare Knuckle pickups, nice pots, and a Roland GK-kit, and am very happy. The binding on one of the F-holes wasn't impressive either, but I can live with that.

TC-HELICON DYNAMIC MIC ADAPTER  $7.99

Super useful - thank you!  I've been looking for a workaround to get audio from an effects send on my Helix to JamOrigin on iOS, and route softsynth audio back to the Helix returns.  (If I try to do this over USB, the bi-directional audio is too much and JamOrigin is unstable.  I considered sending audio to JamOrigin via USB and routing softsynth audio back via stereo 1/8", but the Helix automatically routes USB audio to its own outputs as soon as that connection is made.  So good old-fashioned analog is my only option until they improve their f/w.  Hopefully this will work in the meantime.)

personally - If you are looking at using an IOS looper or run Jam Origin IOS with Helix, I  would find a different IOS audio I/O solution than this TC Helicon TRRS Mic / Headphone  Adapter ( which is Mono Input only and routes all audio into the noisy iPad /iPhone internal mic preamp) 

At minimum Id use Helix FX Loop out > iRig PRO > iPad Headphone Out > Helix FX loop return.

or
At use Helix Stereo FX Loop out > SonicPort VX Stereo Line Input  > SonicPort VX Stereo Line Output > Helix FX Stereo loop return.


For me - i view the TC-Helicon Dynamic Mic Adapter "deal" as $8 XLR to 3.5mm adapter cable - with a free 3.5mm TRRS breakout adapter - or use the deal as a last resort method of getting a Mic signal into an iPad / iPhone / Android phone / tablet

I was hoping for something cheap and nasty to provide pretty much what the TC-Helicon Dynamic Mic Adapter can do, or some other cheap and nasty I/O for guitar (or mic) and headphones for my iPadAir2.  More for an audio sketchpad equivalent than pro-sound expectations.

Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: Elantric on February 10, 2016, 09:11:48 AM
The hiss you experience with Roland Duo Capture Mk2 is MUCH less than the shower you get with IK iRig Pro DUO - revolves around the IK iRig Pro DUO's noisy DAC  / Line / Headphone output. Even my YouRock guitar has better audio performance /lower noise.

Lately Ive been spoiled and been using only the built in 24 bit USB Audio interface in my Fender Fishman Tripleplay Strat , with my iPad / iPhone for bulk of my IOS audio processing  - Fender could market just this aspect of the Tripleplay Strat as a separate product  -

I assume its similar to the Fender Slide

Elektron is having a sale on their Machinedrum and Monomachine models:
http://eu.elektron.se/2016/02/massive-price-reductions-on-the-silver-machines/ (http://eu.elektron.se/2016/02/massive-price-reductions-on-the-silver-machines/)

All three models have fairly powerful synthesis capabilities.  Machinedrum, while not polyrhythm capable, can handle just about any time signature.

Monomachine can function as a 6-voice polyphonic synth with your MIDI guitar, each voice on its own MIDI channel - unless I misread the manual.

I had one and exchanged it for the Scarlett 2i4, I was thinking much smaller and cheaper as an audio sketchpad equivalent only.

My butterscotch blonde came in the mail yesterday. Was about 10 degrees out so I had to resist the urge to open the box for a few hours.

Got to play it for a few minutes and its a very very nice guitar. Surprisingly the neck was straight, action low and intonation was spot on right out of the box after being shipped in the -15F temps over the weekend. Sweet neck profile that's not too thin not too chunky, and looks so much better than the photos. The grain shows through the finish a lot more than the pictures show. Immediately loving the bridge pickup that ive never been able to jive with on my strat. Thanks OP this was a killer deal

On a side note, years back I was looking for a replacement for my digitech GNX3, and I checked out the RP500 and 1000. Neither I, nor the salesman could get a good sound out of it with the amp modeling. Without the amp modeling, you could use it as a regular stomp box. The digitech effects are always very good. This is a good deal for a little over a hundred dollars.

Quote from: Elantric on February 09, 2016, 12:42:30 PM
personally - If you are looking at using an IOS looper or run Jam Origin IOS with Helix, I  would find a different IOS audio I/O solution than this TC Helicon TRRS Mic / Headphone  Adapter ( which is Mono Input only and routes all audio into the noisy iPad /iPhone internal mic preamp) 

At minimum Id use Helix FX Loop out > iRig PRO > iPad Headphone Out > Helix FX loop return.

or
At use Helix Stereo FX Loop out > SonicPort VX Stereo Line Input  > SonicPort VX Stereo Line Output > Helix FX Stereo loop return.

For me - i view the TC-Helicon Dynamic Mic Adapter "deal" as $8 XLR to 3.5mm adapter cable - with a free 3.5mm TRRS breakout adapter - or use the deal as a last resort method of getting a Mic signal into an iPad / iPhone / Android phone / tablet

Good advice, and I have both of those interfaces (iRig Pro, SonicPort VX) collecting dust.  I'll dig them out tonight.  I kind of lost sight of them since the Helix has it's own USB I/O, but for the moment that I/O is nerfed on account of inflexible routing.  (Ironic since, with analog I/O, flexible routing is one of the Helix's biggest selling points.)  The iRig Pro should be perfect.  I worry that the SonicPort VX would exhibit the same problem as any other bi-directional audio interface (e.g. the Helix itself):  instability with iOS 9.2+.

Audio quality at input isn't a big concern for me since I'm just running clean guitar to JamOrigin for conversion, but latency is, of course.  Moreover:

For those of you who tried and failed to purchase the TC Helicon adaptor, rejoice.  As far as I can tell they're blowing them out because they're lemons.  The 1/8" jack is much longer than it should be.  Not only won't it work in an iPad (except by pulling it out of the headphone jack precisely the right number of microns and holding your breath), I came very close to breaking my iPad's headphone jack plugging it in the first time.  I'd try to send it back but for $8 it's not worth wasting any more time.  It already killed a couple of hours last night, and those are precious.

(At least it came with a decent XLR to 1/8" cable.  That might come in handy some day.)
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: Elantric on February 18, 2016, 07:35:21 AM
Agreed
the  actual TRRS Adapter supplied is clearly designed by someone who never uses an Iphone/ iPad - it's a throw-away.

I ordered 2, because I needed XLR Mic to 3.5mm TS cables for my Fostex AR-101

I'm pleased, but not at your expense; however I did buy a used Fender Mustang III Ver 2 for $280 Canadian (that's 28 cents 'merican...kidding) plus Korg Gadget, Korg Module, MegaCurtis, and Donut which should keep me amused until either the head death of the universe or breakfast (whichever comes first).

Edit: Did a quick check a few days ago and the mic didn't register in my recording program, so maybe it is foobar

Exactly- and this phenomena was exploited by a few blues players back in the day -

One persons "dull" frequency response is another persons "warm & bluesy" tone.

Thanks for yr input. It's 9.7" & 32 gb - that's why the price is higher. Other suggestions for an Android about the same size?? I was interested in the newer Nexus but it's smaller & had some poor reviews re the case.

Title: AliExpress the cheaper "Asian Amazon" for consumers - Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: ZenBalancer on March 04, 2016, 01:07:33 PM
Check AliExpress: site and app(much more responsive at times).

Prices of so many things including electronics, are really worth the gamble. Of course Check individual seller's reputation, user product reviews, and the "small print" details at the bottom of the product description.

Leap Motion available for around 24$!!!  Free shipping to many countries! The total shipping time is the 2nd worst thing next to the gamble. But it's so worth it with with such cheap prices.

Check also the "Demo Board" category for tons of Arduino stuff including touchscreens (also resistive if needed for stylus accurate sticks) and sensors, tons of low price stuff!

Also for instance rugged waterproof (not resistant) dual sim Android smarphones that also serve as a powerbank, for around  and often less than 100$.

Or LED projectors for 100$, more features up to 500$. Good for 3-4 years non stop playback if specs hold for one I saw.
Portable projectors with touchscreen and lots of wired and wireless input.

Or a Tablet PC dual OS, Android + Windows(no license), one even with easy quick switch, not only dual boot. That stuff isn't standard.

Buy one a time, for low to no import duties. Under the max limits in accordance to your country destination is import duty free. And you'll see the "hush hush" things they talk about so openly, the users that is.

AliExpress might be the consumer branch of the often bulk AliBaba.

I had totally forgotten about it.

Just be careful - Ive been burned by a seller at AliExpress. - but as a rule always review the feedback rating of the seller and drill down and review what merchandise they have been selling in the past.

Case in point - purchased a Guitar for $80  in 2014
http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6167463311.html (http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6167463311.html)

Seller swiftly sent a "China Post"  shipping tracking number 

waited 2 weeks  - yet supplied tracking number was invalid, contacted seller

Seller offered a $15 refund, to make up for the delays - Like a fool I accepted the $15 refund

waited another 2 weeks  - still supplied tracking number was invalid, contacted seller - no response

contacted Ali-Express customer service  - who reluctantly told me that because I accepted the $15 refund , legally this changed the legality of my whole transaction because I accepted the "offer in compromise" and there was nothing they could do for me  - I lost $65, and swore never do business with AliExpress gain.

By contrast - Ive been doing business on Ebay and Paypal  for 15 years, and each time I had an issue, I always obtained a proper and fair settlement

Yeah, despite its flaws, I found it to be deserving of its classic status.  I loved how several of the characters would relax by playing music after a battle or just to try to get de-stress themselves.  I also loved how Mayu's song itself became a plot device ("Captain, she won't stop playing and we can't take it anymore!").

I once got a guitar headphone amp (meh, not enough volume for big headphones) with Android audio bypass for effects support for 25$, but the order package tracking was unreliable! BUT I received the product tregardless from China Post, but I also had purchased it from a different site.

25$ and under, and small sized items, are low risk items in many ways including for transportation.

But thanks for the warning.. Got it! No acceptance of partial refunds for whatever reason! Nasty loopwhole.

Btw the other site is http://www.dx.com (http://www.dx.com), and have refunded me import duties I had to pay to the courier! I did have to prove it with the receat that I paid the courier. That's their policy. And they were very responsive and their site works well. So maybe give that one a try oneday for a 5$ item for instance. I got a BT headphone for someone also a BT transmitter for the TV. Everything delivered and works. But the BT volume of the headphone was low. But the earbuds version was much better, less power needed for more volume. And we later saw a deal in a store for even less and the audio volume was very good and worked well with the BT transmitter! So it really all depends on the deal and some luck sometimes.

Not sure where to start. Or how relevant the following deals are for the most active forum users. But anyway. I stumbled upon a few deals over the past number of days, and some are "related" to each other.


http://vstbuzz.com (http://vstbuzz.com) , NineVoltBundle (old, but a lot and good quality REX and/or RMX, 40-80GB) 16 days left for around 100$ (it was about 400$ in 2013 according to a few reviews):

Quote96% off Ultimate RMX 30K Bundle (worth $2,400!)
I'm still downloading it. I'm kind of torn whether to reshare it for free, since I don't think the files need any licensing or identifiable personal information, but I've not yet gotten around "installing" and trying them out (only listened to the demos so far). It's unfair either way to one group or the other, to share it or not to share it.

What I can't try yet, is the http://vstbuzz.com/freebies/ (http://vstbuzz.com/freebies/) which contains many multi-gigabyte Kontakt goodies, for free.

If you don't have Kontankt and are interested, you can get until the end of the month, 50% OFF "cross-upgrade" price, which as an example is already 200$ OFF of the 1000$ ULTIMATE bundle for instance (which already packs a total of individual packages that far exceeds the normal bundle price anyway), costing thus with this discount in the end about 400$ instead of 1000$ (you can get all the ~400GB on a free harddrive instead of downloading it all, but you need that amount of temporary space on your system drive for the installation process according to something I read overthere, regardless where you're installing it to like an external drive). The catch is that you've to get or have a product that qualifies you for the cross-grade license. Like maybe their keyboard. Or maybe another SW license, but I'm not sure about the latter. I see now that upgrades and updates also qualify for the 50% discount.

Build quality itself has been excellent overall for the last 2-3 years IMO; it's just the 2015 models got a ton of flack for the wide neck, brass zero-fret nut and the robo tuners, but just about every Gibson over $1K that I've tried recently have been consistently good.

This is a great package. I got the 61 key version of this awhile back and really like it. The keyboard has a lighter touch but great for most anything. Have read of spotty quality control but mine is perfect. Arturia runs good specials to get into their other synths too.

Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread

Every 28 months, when Dealer Inventory is high before tax day

If there is anything new , we should know during 2016 MusikMesse early April

But typical won't be for sale until July
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: HecticArt on March 29, 2016, 06:55:55 PM
Dig.
The sale runs till April 30th, so there's enough overlap to know if it's worth getting the backup 55, or looking into the new rig, if there is one.

dinosaur crossgrade for Zebra V2
With the dinosaur crossgrade you can obtain Urs Heckmannʻs
infamous Zebra wireless modular synth for 50$ less than the
normal price. But it involves some action on your side. Itʻs not
overly complicated, just look at the steps on the right side.
Unlike some other crossgrades, you donʻt loose the option to
furtherly use the stuff youʻre crossgrading from. But will you
really use it anymore when youʻve got Zebra at your disposal?
Better yet, if you send in something that blows us away, you
might even be rewarded with an extra goodie. No warranties
here, but a good chance to soup up your arsenal!

Some great prices on these, well more like "last years regular price" on a lot but some of them are about $50 less than that even. These are great guitars once setup.

QuoteHi - I designed the Rogue with my good friend Harvey Starr who has been doing wireless MIDI for years. We came up with a bidirectional system built on his robust wireless stack called AirPower which is super robust. You can see his version just announced here:
http://www.starrlabs.com/product/airpower2/ (http://www.starrlabs.com/product/airpower2/)

Together, we made customizations, optimized for the heavy two traffic that QuNeo demands and increased range. This is in addition to the remote battery and power management system that keeps the QuNeo going for many hours of performance.

Hmm... the price is right but they are used and not the latest updatable version AFAICT, however I do have three guitars with them and a spare might be a benefit but in truth it seems to me as long as batteries are available I'll be OK, and buying this one as spare (with a used battery) likely means that by the time I would need a new battery the one from this used piece may not be very effective.

Condition: *For repair (Removed from 2014 Gibson Guitars)

Type: Tuners- all original parts included

Comments: * Each of these sets have an issue of some type (a stripped or dysfunctional tuner usually)- hence the rock bottom pricing. Please make note before buying as the issues are baked into the pricing.

Yipes, I did not read that far and I suppose then the only benefit might be if one of my tuners on one of the assemblies was to have a problem, and I could figure out which of the used tuners was intact, and do a switcheroo, it might be worth it.

Get em while theyre hot.

I bought one of these from a shop in Germany. The quality is superb and the fretwork on the kneck is better than any Roland ready strat Ive seen. The fretboard is a 9.5 inch radius so the action can be set up low without the bends choking out and its got Duncan designed pickups for the low price of $284 US.

Get a GK internal kit and youve got something way better that the stock RRS at a fraction of the cost and you can get them in white with a rosewood fingerboard for slightly more

Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: alexmcginness on June 07, 2016, 01:24:05 PM
The list price is $400 US. And yes it is worthy as those guitars are extreemly well built. Go read the reviews. Theres a couple of negative ones but the majority are positive. I posted it because I bought one and the playability out of the box is superb. The fretwork is amazing. I wouldnt post something that I havent personally tried myself. These from my experience with them, smoke all the RR Strats Ive tried. Get a GK kit and youve got a great playing GK Strat at a fraction of the cost of a RRS.
Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: lespauled on June 07, 2016, 01:43:58 PM
My point is that Amazon shows both the price and the "was" price. The "was" price is $15 more than the "get it while it's hot" price.

OK so 299.  Grab one as theyre well made Strats. Get a GK kit and youve got a GK controller with a 9.5 inch radius fretboard with outstanding fretwork for far less than a RRS and a better built guitar in the bargain. Hows that?

Probably a pair of very small audio transformers?  If so I'd wonder about the level at which the cores start saturating.

It's certainly not a substitute for a Radial DI with Jensen transformers , but it's fine for solving ground loop problems for  iPads /iPhone iRig Pro users who must use the Apple headphone jack for output


( and a reminder that alll IOS Audio interfaces that lack headphone out connections will soon be obsolete as they will  not work with future iPhones after Apple removes the 3.5mm headset jack

I figure they will do same with future iPads too

Thanks Elantric.   I guess I'm dreaming to think the older low capacity cards would be a buck or so in 100 qty.   I think i paid $4 for 4 gig cards (or maybe usb sticks) on sale at frys.  It is amazing at how ss memory prices keep falling.  I still have a pile of old mac 128k floppies i use for shim stock.  How far we have come in 30 yrs!

When I first saw one of these Kaoss guitars, I initially wrote it off as just a novelty.  But then I tried one and now I can't stop playing it.  Not only is it a better than expected build for a budget priced instrument, I've been finding so many interesting (and very usable) effects on this thing.  It also has a built in fuzz circuit switch.  If you dig effected guitar, you may want to check it out.

Here's the press release: Scottsdale, AZ (January 25, 2014) — Fender is proud to offer its latest arsenal of guitars, including the American Deluxe Strat Plus HSS, Deluxe Stratocaster HSS with Fishman TriplePlay, Deluxe Stratocaster HSS Plus Top with iOS Connectivity, Fender Select Stratocaster HSS, and Fender Select Stratocaster QMT guitars. Fender instruments have always been about great simplicity and convenient modularity—no other guitars are easier to personalize with new parts and hot-rodded features into truly individual declarations. The remarkable new American Deluxe Strat Plus HSS is the next step in the evolution of that great tradition, giving you three humbucking pickup-equipped Stratocaster guitars in one with an innovative design featuring easily interchangeable "personality cards" that instantly give you a wealth of versatile pickup and circuitry configurations. One card comes in the guitar and delivers standard Stratocaster HSS pickup wiring; two extra personality cards are included and let you "re-wire" the guitar with specialized pickup and circuitry modifications quickly and easily. Simply pop the color-coded cards in and out of the easy-access compartment in the back, and you've just modded your Strat in record time. Further, the American Deluxe Strat Plus HSS features fully solder-less electronics that literally make other great circuit mods a snap. Other fine features include a maple neck with comfortable "modern C" profile and satin finish, compound-radius rosewood fingerboard (9.5"-14") with 22 medium jumbo frets, single-coil N3 Noiseless™ Strat neck and middle pickups, a Twin Head humbucking bridge pickup and five-way switching. The guitar also has a three-ply mint green pickguard and aged white control knobs, two-point synchronized tremolo bridge with bent steel saddles, Micro-Tilt™ neck adjustment mechanism, staggered deluxe locking tuners and nickel-chrome hardware. Accessories include a convenient carrying case for the two extra personality cards, hard-shell case, guitar strap, cable and polishing cloth. Available in Mystic Black and Mystic Three-color Sunburst gloss finishes.  See more at: http://iheartguitarblog.com/2014/01/namm-fender-american-deluxe-strat-plus.html#sthash.NFPEZb7c.dpuf (http://iheartguitarblog.com/2014/01/namm-fender-american-deluxe-strat-plus.html#sthash.NFPEZb7c.dpuf)

This is an incredible deal.  A friend of mine bought this guitar with the 3 single coils when I posted it in this thread a few weeks ago.  It's a beautiful strat with more options than a regular strat......although it can be a regular strat too.

I was stunned at how beautiful it was.  This is an incredible guitar.  If I could justify it, I would have jumped all over it myself....but I already own 3.

Start Rant

He got a little discouraged due to the idiot "purists" that said it wasn't a real string.  It's a real strat. 

I explained that there are purists everywhere, including another guitar board I'm on.  These clowns frown upon the newer versions of that type of guitar.  I own one, and owned one of the guitar way back in the 90's and with the exception of a licensed trem, it's the same guitar.

So, there are "purists" everywhere, who will try to sh** all over anything new, mainly because they don't own them :)

End of my rant on this subject.

eBay with ProAudioStar has the dbx goRack Signal Processor Rack for $30 with free shipping.

The goRack sits next to a set of powered speakers and provides powerful signal processing including Anti-Feedback, Compression, Sub-Harmonic Synth and EQ.

Historically, the convenience of portability in a PA System has meant a compromise in sound quality and fidelity. To answer that call, we at dbx Professional Products are proud to introduce the all-new goRack™ Performance Processor. The goRack is an easy-to-use portable speaker processor. Based on our industry-leading DriveRack Series, the goRack sits next to a set of powered speakers and provides powerful signal processing including Anti-Feedback (based on our AFS™ Advanced Feedback Suppression algorithm), Compression, Sub-Harmonic Synth and EQ. Each processing function can easily be enabled or disabled via top-level function buttons, and settings can be adjusted via goRack's large data wheel.

goRack's rear panel features combination 1/4"/XLR inputs that can be connected to either mixer outputs or microphones. When using a mic, the goRack's Mic/Line switch selects the proper input sensitivity and gain range while dual gain controls on the top provide independent level adjustment. goRack's 1/8" Aux input allows for direct connection of mobile music players while XLR outputs interface with powered speakers.

The goRack represents the best of dbx's DriveRack processing in its purest, most simplified form all housed in a sleek, compact form factor that fits in your hand, or back pocket. The goRack is perfect for applications from a mixer, or with its dual XLR inputs and Aux input, it can be used as a standalone performance processor/mixer for the solo artist.

ANTI-FEEDBACK PROCESSING

Make annoying and potentially painful audio feedback a thing of the past with the goRack's simple-to-use, Anti-Feedback processing. Based on dbx's industry-leading AFS (Advanced Feedback Suppression) algorithm, the goRack makes eliminating system feedback a snap. Simply press the goRack's Anti-Feedback function button and use the Data Wheel to adjust the settings. The goRack listens for, anticipates and removes feedback automatically without altering your sound.

COMPRESSOR

Control dynamics and fine-tune your system with the straightforward Compressor feature based on the legendary dbx 163 Compressor. Minimize peaks and level out variances in your audio source material with goRack's intuitive Compressor feature.

SUB-SYNTH

goRack's Sub Synth feature is the perfect tool for adding extra bass to your system. For decades, dbx's patented Subharmonic Synthesis has been the secret weapon used by mobile DJ's and film and sound professionals to produce low frequency impact unavailable from any other device—unique because the dbx process actually produces a new, Waveform Modeled™ bass note, exactly an octave below the bass in the original audio.

EQ

Add richness and clarity to your audio with the goRack's EQ feature. Experiment with one of goRack's custom EQ settings to instantly improve bass, midrange and treble response. The goRack's EQ can also be used to adjust a sound system to account for the acoustical response of a room or an outdoor venue.

The dbx goRack is ideally suited for live sound applications where portability is essential without compromising sound quality

It's a stereo DI box too

I figure for live use, to have auto-feedback-suppression available, it could be worth it for those admittedly rare times my PA gets used by a mic-wielding denison of the deep, thus I'm thinking about getting one; OTOH I need to donate to Wikileaks to keep the spirit of democracy alive!

I have been a huge fan of dBx since the days when I sold them through my pro-audio business in the early 80s.  Unfortunately, I think that Behringer is eating Harman's lunch in a lot of market niches.  Folks love to badmouth Behringer products, but I own quite a few and am generally quite happy with them.  My band uses an IEM system with individual P16 mixers for everyone and they basically "just work".  If it wasn't for the PI series we'd have been looking at about 2x the expense for an Aviom setup.

Hello Condordal,
It does say "Free delivery in 2-3 days" and yep, I'm well aware of UPS's outrageous so-called "brokerage fees" however if you check out the link I've provided below then UPS claims that it is free of such charges for Canadians.  If indeed they come knocking with their hands out, then I will show them a printout of said link, and if that fails I will refuse receipt and complain to UPS directly https://www.ups.com/content/ca/en/shipping/cost/zones/customs_clearance.html (https://www.ups.com/content/ca/en/shipping/cost/zones/customs_clearance.html)

Hello Elantric,
Sure I'll report on total delivery time. With a purchase like this, which is essentially frivolous to any musical endeavours in my immediate future, I've no particular concerns about the timeline, as long as it's less than oh-say four months. I have purchased a number of other slow-shipping items via eBay / Asia and all has been well.

They may be blowing these out.  It's also $29 at Sweetwater

It sounds like a great deal, but I honestly don't see where I would use this.  I looked on youtube for video demos, but nothing there seemed to help me see where I would need it.

I can see using this post a GP-10 rig. The GP-10 does not have a global EQ. This gives you the ability to have one EQ setting for home, another for live, etc.

Although it looks as though it only runs balanced out ... ?

This one is a minor update to the H4N  - it does have a faster CPU and boots faster and has improved mic preamps  - and it serves as a USB Audio interface.

To be determined - there may be remote MIDI control for the H4N's Guitar DSP guitar amp models - truncated versions of Zoom G5 guitar effects are built in

QuoteAre there any pros / cons with having Cellular 4G LTE that would have a consequential effect on price / performance / ease of use / suitability for music apps?

the iPad Pro 12.9" 4G model adds to the usefullness IMHO as it also  includes an active GPS chip ( even without a data plan ) for geo tagging all pics  - making this model more valuable during resale

you can elect to obtain a data network SIM card from your cell provider of choice  - but not necessary

I run mine without a SIM card  (just Wi-Fi access) - but this iPad Pro 12.9" screen model is so much better and faster than an iPad AIR  /  AIR2 and with 128GB memory and more RAM than my other iPads  - this is my "go-to" iPad for music creation.

Ah yes I forgot about responding back.  I would not consider it a scam as the fellow refunded my monies in full immediately, however for reasons unknown, he could not deliver. I certainly do not feel upset or disappointed, because I had no mission-critical use for it, in fact I ordered it more on a lark due to the very low price and the fact that it had some possibly interesting PA processing.

the dbx Go-Rack prices are rising  - (but could be just opportunists reselling the $30 unit for $45 on Amazon -

I have this pedal . It's fantastic and this is a steal !



If you're a knob-tweaking tone freak, the Il Torino Overdrive effects pedal's smooth, organic grit will make your ears smile and your fingers happy. Thanks to its controls (including a highly-flexible 3-band EQ), you can shape the Il Torino Overdrive's sound to suit your carefully-constructed signal chain. Speaking of sound, the sweet, touch-responsive saturation and natural-sounding compression provided by the Il Torino Overdrive's MOSFET technology feels amazingly lifelike, much like the gain structure of a classic tube preamp. At Sweetwater, we're suitably impressed by how the Il Torino Overdrive's Boost/OD switch lets you toggle between a clean boost and an aggressive, cranked tube amp sound. The Il Torino Overdrive effects is a highly limited supply custom shop effects pedal.

Cubasis 2 is out at 50% of his normal price until 06 october and with interesting news:
http://www.steinberg.net/en/products/mobile_apps/cubasis_2/start.html
https://itunes.apple.com/en/app/cubasis/id583976519?mt=8

Quote*** Cubasis 2 special price valid from September 22 to October 06, 2016: € ($) 24.99 (regular price: € ($) 49.99).
Special price for FX Pack 1 and FX Pack 2 (exclusively available through in-app purchase) valid until October 06, 2016: € ($) 3.99 (regular price: € ($) 6.99). ***
Refreshed user interface
Cubasis's unrivalled user experience has been once more fundamentally enhanced with version 2, due to its carefully redesigned user interface resulting in profound usability and easy, intuitive use.

Real-time time-stretching featuring zplane's élastique 3
Perfectly tempo match audio loops to your song's tempo on the fly using real-time auto time-stretching featuring zplane's élastique 3. Or manually change the length of audio files as you wish, without altering pitches.

Factory audio loops tempo match
Cubasis's exceedingly rich drum loop library is the source for your audio loops to use at your favoured tempo, simply by applying real-time time-stretching with a quick finger tap. It's that easy.

Pitch-shifting with formant correction
Imagine this: you got all your tracks ready, only your singer requests the whole song to be in a different key. This is how you meet the demands: in Cubasis 2, simply change your audio's pitch at the touch of a button and tweak it to meet the demands using the included formant correction.

Channel strip
Reach pristine audio quality with Cubasis's high-end channel strip that adds a massive effect suite with a studio-grade cut filter, compressor, noise gate and tape/tube saturator to each channel. All of that combined in a single, handy interface that's perfectly optimized for iOS-use.

Spin FX
Choose from a wide variety of DJ-like style breaks, tape stops, stutters and filter effects to tweak and mash-up individual tracks or even complete songs with the included Spin FX plug-in that has full automation support.

Micrologue sound refill
Cubasis's critically acclaimed Micrologue virtual analog synth has been refilled with more than 75 boundary-pushing and modern sounds putting massive basses, atmospheric pads and strings, razor-sharp leads, evolving SFX/MFX and much more jewelry right in your toolbox.

MicroSonic TAPE instruments
MicroSonic's TAPE instruments expansion carefully recreates the trademark sound of one of the most famous british rockbands of the '60s and adds extra sparkle plus that timeless classic vintage vibe for all kinds of musical genres.

MIDI Auto Quantize
To err is human and nobody's perfect at all times. Use auto quantize to perfectly sync your MIDI tracks with the beat of your song while you record.

Its here:
https://transactions.antarestech.com/atgconnect/GuitarProducts.aspx

However the procedure if you own a Peavey AT-200  - it should be registered with Antares, and after you log in with your account, the upgrade page with discount pricing should be revealed

But note these AT-200 upgrade firmware options are NOT applicable to Antares ATG1 or Antares Internal Kit owners - both already have the "Complete Pack" preinstalled

The exception is the ATG-1  - which has a separate Pedal Steel Upgrade firmware option

FWIW -  NANO 300 vs the Nano 600  - NANO 600 has twice the output power  and more mixer channels

The NANO 300 might be ok for a small solo gig, but might have issue competing with a rock drummer

and only the NANO 608I has the IOS controlled mixer, EQ, Compression, and high power of NANO 600

Cheated by update

     
by Donate Not!
Been using the app for a while and liked it, and other IK products, however removed it temporarily from ipad and iphone for space and now find out that it/the update is no longer compatable with my devices! (the iphone version as well). Read later in fine print that I shouldn't have removed, but had purchased new instrument packs and now totally unusable unless I buy a new ipad! Totally unsatisactory

I love version 2!

     
by RTMN
It took me a little time to adjust to the new interface but I like it. The addition of the new sound libraries and packs is a nice plus -- they put me closer to having the desktop version's selection.


Affordable

I just bought the app for $3 dollars on my phone. Furthermore it has a lot of good sound for the price. I could afford not to buy it such a deal in this economy right now on iPhone 6s.

This Sony bundle has been the best value for media production on Windows platform for 16 years

( i turned Bill Ruppert onto Vegas, , and he uses it for Effectology videos ) 

You get working versions of Vegas Video Editor( started life as a DAW) and Soundforge and a DVD Creation app.

some use Acid  - but its not my cup of tea

This  Sony Movie Studio 13 Suite will be the last version - since Sony has sold off Vegas  / Soundforge apps  May 2016 to Magix
http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/news/pressreleases/2016/sony-creative-software-sell-products-to-magix
 

But at $40 it a must have for any Windows user up to Win8.1  - but know it might break if you use Windows 10 and beyond

(Magix support has been less than steller)

https://www.ilok.com/#!home

This weekend during the black friday sale, i qualify for Eventide Anthology-X for $399 (normally $1,195)

It looks like you could buy 2 plugins for $49 each, then get the Anthology X for $299!  Saves about $102 if you don't own any Eventide plugins.  I wonder if that would work.... ::) ::)

Report back if it works!
Might have to read the fine print !- but i suspect they check if your registered Eventide product registered in your iLOK account must be older than 3 months

Atomic CLR Neo MarkII $999 for this production run (while supplies last)

After the sale Goes back up to regular price of $1399

(Hint: not sure when this new model ships , I figure not until February 2017

https://m.facebook.com/atomicamps/

The CLR NEO MKII is the result of years of refining our best-in-class (and beyond) CLR loudspeaker to make it play louder and run cooler while maintaining or enhancing its legendary performance characteristics. The featherweight design weighs only 33lbs! It is a reference quality, active FRFR (full range, flat response) loudspeaker system, perfect for use with amp modelers (like Atomic's AmpliFIRE series) and profilers as well as general PA and studio monitoring purposes.

Pete Thorn Showcases The CLR!

Brett "Bergs" Kingman Raves About His CLR!

http://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/wow-go-atomic-just-ordered-mkii-version-neo-cyber-monday-400-off.121603/



Not affiliated. Just spreading the love. Fantastic deal. New version and $400 off Neo mkII model! $999 plus shipping. Couldn't pass on this.

__________________________________________________________
Happy Cyber Monday!
GREAT NEWS! CLRs are finally back in stock!!!

But that's just the tip of the iceberg. Atomic has gone totally insane this Cyber Monday and has an offer that will certainly make the wait for CLRs worth it. Here's the scoop:

First, we are excited to officially announce the CLR MKII. It is the result of years of refining our best-in-class (and beyond) CLR loudspeaker to make it play louder and run cooler while maintaining or enhancing its legendary performance characteristics.
Second, we're trimming the line down to just our most popular product, the feather weight, amazing, active CLR NEO.

Third (and this is the crazy part), we're offering a Cyber Monday discount coupon for $400 off, making the CLR NEO the same $999.95 price as the standard, much heavier ferrite magnet model.

This offer is good only while supplies last. These will not last long so:

Assuming you wish to put faith in CNET, it does not get as good reviews as the equivalent Logitech speakers which are more readily available in Canada, and for a better price as well.  I have owned a number of Logitech speakers found them to be very serviceable in terms of sound quality and price / performance  https://www.cnet.com/products/klipsch-promedia-2-1-090506081211/review/

I almost bought this on your tip and still might.  Reading the manual to try to decode how it could fit my setup.  The step sequencer is interesting in that mix . . .
Quote from:  sec6
Blowout sale on Roland A01 with Keyboard for $149, regularly $399.  Has not been a well received piece of kit, but for this price it is very tempting.  Has midi in and out ports and midi over bluetooth for Mac and iOS.  Not sure how this could fit into a vguitar rig, but in addition to controlling software synths on iPad, maybe it could be useful by connecting Midx10/20 to midi in port and then sending over bluetooth to iPad synths.

This deal has expired as of 02/06/2017.
Godin Guitars ACS Nylon Synth Access 2-Voice 825.00 ((( KOA )))
This deal is at Pro Audio Star - I have purchased from them before and it was an excellent transaction. However I used Zzounds.com to price match because I recently used them for a super price match deal on a GR55. Zzounds got as close as they could at 855 USD and I jumped on the deal. The Pro Audio Star listing does not mention a Gig Bag and I did get one with Zzounds plus 2 day shipping.

So far I have no complaints with any of the music gear companies but Zzounds has really saved me some money. When it was all said and done, I purchased a GR55, a Roland 13 Pin Cable and the Koa Godin ACS-SA Nylon and the total savings basically paid for the GR55 if you compare what I paid to a fair advertised retail price. http://www.proaudiostar.com/godin-guitars-acs-nylon-synth-access-2-voice-2.html

One thing that I almost fooled myself on is that some companies charge tax and some don't. For example GuitarCenter.Com charges Tax. With that said I appreciate the pros at my local Guitar Center and I do recommend them as well.

I wonder if we should have a thread on how to get good deals? Of course I'm no expert; that's for sure.  :)

15-Watt, 1x12 Guitar Combo Tube Amplifier with Celestion Speaker & Spring Reverb
Get superior guitar tone and flexibility using this 15-Watt, 1x12 Guitar Combo Tube Amplifier with Celestion Speaker & Spring Reverb from Monoprice!

As the title indicates, this guitar amplifier features a 15-watt tube power amplifier and a Celestion brand speaker. It uses three ECC83/12AX7 preamplification tubes and two EL84 power tubes for the amplifier section, plus a Celestion Red Truvox 1215 speaker. The EL84 tube is the tube that powered the Mullard amplifiers favored by the British Invasion bands of the 1960s. It can produce a full output from a relatively small signal and is therefore easily overdriven to produce that distinctive chiming, treble-heavy sound, especially when compared to the 6L6 tubes more commonly used in 1960s era American guitar amps.

The amplifier handles frequencies between 80Hz and 10kHz, with hum and noise -75dB below the rated power and 0.5% total harmonic distortion. It includes a Low input and a High input, with the former attenuating the signal by approximately 50% and the latter being easier to overdrive. The cabinet is ported in the rear and features a leather handle, cloth speaker grill, and a cream-colored, textured, synthetic leather exterior with chrome corner guards.

The amp features a genuine spring reverb with the ability to enable it remotely using a foot switch. It supports FX send and receive, so you can either connect it to an effects processor or use the send/receive connections as line out and line in connections. Two inputs allow you to select between the full power mode and a 1 watt limited amplification mode for recording or late night practice sessions.

Interesting.  I Like how these monoprice cabs are packaged (handle, wheels, size).
I've been using two Behringer K900FX 12" Keyboard amps and was thinking of trying something else.

My Behringer is packed with features multiple inputs, feedback eliminator, eq, fx but I'm really curious if I could here a difference in sound quality at jamming levels compared to Bose, JBL, QSC, Monoprice etc..



Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: Chumly on February 26, 2017, 11:22:17 AM
Behringer certainly has competitive pricing and an aggressive business model but there are nicer sounding products that understandably cost more.  Worthy of consideration is whether you or your audience will notice enough of a difference for the additional cost.  The truth of the matter is that gear and talent play second fiddle to performance and sex appeal in a live setting. IOW better clothes, attention seeking stage moves, and sex appeal will likely trump nicer sounding products.

I like nice gear because it makes me feel better and I find it interesting, not because I truly expect many will notice (or care if they do notice) in a live setting.

My raw sexual animal magnetism and impeccable dress has often saved me from a fate worse than death.

Our band always hauled the gear that gave us the best sound, to our ears.

i wouldn't have wanted to hear the other guitar player's tone if he was producing a harsh sound simply because  he brought along his B game processer.

Many of the most successful musicians have used rather modest gear, especially by today's most recent standards. Whether an amplified guitar sounds "harsh" (and thus I assume from your text you feel is unquestionably undesirable) is in fact dependent on context and esthetics!

QuoteDonner Bluetooth Page Turner Pedal for Tablets Ipad Rechargeable, Silver

A must have for any musician with an iPad & sheet music apps. Works with computer as well.
By Greg K on Feb 26, 2017
This is a very useful tool for turning pages on my iPhone & iPad for gigs and rehearsal. I use this pedal with the iOS App's piaScore, Teleprompt & with Mac as well. Turning pages' hands-free is a must.

There are a few setting options to use depending what app or device you are connecting to. On my Mac Setting 5 (Space/ Enter) comes in handy to stop/start recording in Logic Pro.

Other settings include:

1. Page up/page down
2. Left arrow/ right
3. Up / down
4. left / right mouse click
5. Space/ Enter

Despite being made of plastic, it's sturdy and effective.
The pedals are quiet, so they don't distract when pressing them and it has rubber on the bottom so it won't slide around.

I haven't tried it with other iOS apps, but it should work with any app that you can use foot pedals with including:

WPS Office
Musicreader 4
forScore
OnSong
DD GigBook
NextPage
Teleprompt+3
SongBook
unrealBook
VSheetMusic
Musicnotes
-----


It syncs to every app I've seen and makes switching sheet music almost effortless.it syncs with no issues at all.now I will never need paper again

do they make a start stop pedal for music playback for the Ipad? I use a midi temp for playing back backing tracks. An Ipad could do the same if there was a pedal to start the song.

I use the AirTurn PED model foot control and it does work with both iPad and PC. Sorry I cannot be more specific regarding your question. I mainly use it for the PC and when I have experimented with it on the iPad, I was using Apps that were AirTurn compatible. Therefore the use of the AirTurn Pedals may only work with certain Apps. I suggest asking AirTurn about your specific application. It very well may work for you but I would check with them to be sure. I like the compact PED. The only thing is that the sticker marking the buttons can come loose around the edges but that's not a big deal however I think they should fix that with a new type of sticker.

Edit: They have fixed the minor issue with the sticker. I will explain in a new post below. (great service and communication form AirTurn)

Regarding my previous comment concerning my AirTurn PED. The minor sticker issue was only on the first few that came off the production line. I had put my order in before they were even available. The manufacture without saying anything used an lubricant spray to get the more stubborn skins out of the mold but that was fixed immediately. AirTurn has a promotion give away going on and I decided to mention the sticker issue on the PED model and they were happy to explain what caused the issue and take care of me. I highly recommend AirTurn.

Here you can enter for a free concert package. They make a lot of nice stuff.
http://www.headabovemusic.com/giving-away-an-airturn-concert-package

Edit: I use the AirTurn Pedal for several things. I mainly use it to turn pages on a Windows PC but I also use it to start and stop recording in my DAW Reaper and also use it to control some functions in a looping VST Plug In called Mobius and on the iPad I use it to control a looping app called Loppy HD. It also works for an iPad App I have called Flute Prompter.

Here's a simple solution for Headphone Cables. Lapel Size or Normal Size. I purchased from Newegg and it arrived 2 days later. It cost about 4 dollars. I have no affiliation with any vendors. I hope this helps some of you who are bugged by the headphone cable. You can attach it to the back of your shirt or to something off your body if you wish. Cheers!

QuoteWill the bearings on a Dremel survive that degree of side-load?

I have one of these and have used it extensively. Although functional for small projects, do not expect it to tackle bigger projects where you need route deep into the surface or cover a large area. Also, your Dremel will overheat and you will put too much stress on the bearing if you attempt to go too fast. In addition, the plunger stop and the guide are understandably not deigned for precision work. That said, it is definitely better than attempting to use a chisel or using a Dremel guided by hand. My one recommendation is to unsure you invest in quality router bits, such as the ones actually made by Dremel. You will blow through the cheap ones fast and they will not cut smoothly.

OUR VERDICT
For the money, this guitar is a definite keeper, and one that could easily become your trademark guitar.

PROS
The Bigsby B50 is a great addition.
Superb look.
That Gretsch sound...


CONS
Very few.
Gretsch G5435TG-BLK-LTD16 Electromatic Pro Jet

Since partnering with Fender in 2002, Gretsch has enjoyed a second golden era, and its current range balances tributes to classic models with some new twists on the form, such as this limited edition Pro Jet from the mid-priced Electromatic range.

Right from the off, this Pro Jet pushes all the right visual buttons; the jet-black paint job is finished to a standard that embarrasses some premium American-built guitars, and combined with gold hardware, the end result is pure eye-candy that invokes the character of the ultra-rare Penguin - a single-cut custom limited to just a few dozen examples made back in the late 1950s.

The Pro Jet sports a pair of Blacktop Filter'Tron humbuckers with a simple control layout, consisting of a three-way selector switch with separate volume knobs and master tone below the bridge, with a master volume knob on the cutaway bout.

The other hard-to-miss hardware is the licensed Bigsby B50 vibrato, which is beautifully made and adds plenty of vintage mojo. The Pro Jet's 'out of the box' fit and finish are excellent, with no sharp fret ends, and truss rod and intonation set correctly for the standard issue 0.09 to 0.046 strings.

Plugged in, the Pro Jet definitely has that 'Gretsch sound', more focused and forward in the upper mids, with a balanced treble and tight bass that can sound like a P-90 but with all the benefits of a humbucker - edgy and aggressive in the bridge, warm and jazzy in the neck.

The Blacktop Filter'Trons are a newer design with ceramic magnets - similar to those found on some 70s guitars – with all the dynamic punch Gretsch is known for, but with a hotter output.

The Pro Jet's build emphasises this punch - the chambered basswood body is topped with an arched maple cap, and a slim 'D' profile maple neck with medium jumbo frets. It all adds up to lots of acoustic resonance mixed with slick playability.

Using both pickups together and varying the separate volumes adds subtle nuance, which is easy to control with the master volume. The B50 is quite stable as long as you don't go crazy - adding shimmer to big reverb'd chords is its jam.

Overall, this limited edition Pro Jet is a real player's guitar - its distinctive tone is solidly anchored in 1950s Americana, giving an authentic performance for country, rockabilly, jazz and more.

15-Watt, 1x12 Guitar Combo Tube Amplifier with Celestion Speaker & Spring Reverb
Get superior guitar tone and flexibility using this 15-Watt, 1x12 Guitar Combo Tube Amplifier with Celestion Speaker & Spring Reverb from Monoprice!

As the title indicates, this guitar amplifier features a 15-watt tube power amplifier and a Celestion brand speaker. It uses three ECC83/12AX7 preamplification tubes and two EL84 power tubes for the amplifier section, plus a Celestion Red Truvox 1215 speaker. The EL84 tube is the tube that powered the Mullard amplifiers favored by the British Invasion bands of the 1960s. It can produce a full output from a relatively small signal and is therefore easily overdriven to produce that distinctive chiming, treble-heavy sound, especially when compared to the 6L6 tubes more commonly used in 1960s era American guitar amps.

The amplifier handles frequencies between 80Hz and 10kHz, with hum and noise -75dB below the rated power and 0.5% total harmonic distortion. It includes a Low input and a High input, with the former attenuating the signal by approximately 50% and the latter being easier to overdrive. The cabinet is ported in the rear and features a leather handle, cloth speaker grill, and a cream-colored, textured, synthetic leather exterior with chrome corner guards.

The amp features a genuine spring reverb with the ability to enable it remotely using a foot switch. It supports FX send and receive, so you can either connect it to an effects processor or use the send/receive connections as line out and line in connections. Two inputs allow you to select between the full power mode and a 1 watt limited amplification mode for recording or late night practice sessions.

I have one of these and it's a great little no-frills practice amp.  The built-in reverb is atrociously bad, even with a tank replacement.  Probably best to plan on a low-cost stomp box reverb in the effects loop if you need one.

Gibson USA's only 2015 guitar with hand wiring, no weight relief and the thickest neck make it the most traditional Les Paul in the 2015 lineup

For my collection,   the guitars I keep must have a fat 50's neck, or its going on Ebay - I get shooting pains with a "too thin neck" and I can hear the tone improvements a thick neck delivers

Offering over 50% off of the original retail price, this Gibson USA Les Paul Traditional 2015 in Ocean Blue represents an UNBELIEVABLE value!

With its stunning looks and killer tone, the Gibson Les Paul Traditional 2015 is a return to the roots of what made the Les Paul the iconic instrument it is today. The Les Paul Traditional 2015 retains much of the original construction specs that helped launch the careers of countless rock & roll guitar legends. A figured maple top is paired with a solid mahogany body, once again recreating that classic tonewood combination. The absence of any extra internal routing helps deliver that classic Les Paul tone that we love. The only guitar in Gibson's 2015 lineup having no weight relief, this Les Paul Traditional 2015 offers a solid mass to generate maximum sustain.

A quarter-sawn mahogany neck has a wider playing surface while retaining the same string spacing. The bound rosewood fingerboard has 22 medium frets with classic vintage-style trapezoid pearl inlays. Gibson has employed a new, thicker slab of rosewood for the fingerboard. The increased mass improves sustain and the board is buffed and oiled for maximum playability. The neck is carved into a thick, comfortable rounded profile which will feel at home in your fretting hand. The Les Paul Traditional 2015 carries Gibson's thickest profile neck. Electronics feature a pair of '59 Tribute Humbucking pickups paired with a 3-way selector switch and the familiar layout of individual volume and tone controls for each pickup.

The nickel hardware on the Les Paul Traditional 2015 includes a Tune-O-Matic bridge/stopbar tailpiece combo, providing stable intonation and silky smooth action and bending. Additional premium features include Gibson's G FORCE tuning system, a Zero fret adjustable nut, and a "100" logo on the headstock to commemorate Les Paul's 100th birthday. A hardshell case is included in this fine package.

Actually this happens annually each year

But it begs the question
Why do they need to change the specs each year on these  guitars , rendoring last years model " obsolete"  ?

Don't think this was posted yet: Eventide EQ plug-in "EQuivocate", available for free download until October 31, 2017.

https://www.eventideaudio.com/promo/equivocate

I've been using it today for a mastering project I'm doing, and I really like it.  I find the interface is cleverly designed, really lends itself to the way I think about and work with EQ.... Definitely worth checking out, especially for free!

\\Really good deals on close out "UK Vintage" basic body / neck  ( 99% same as FretKing by Trevor Wilkinson guitars )

( Ive played all these at NAMM shows) In general, the ES-335 types  have the neck profile feel of a pre 1965 Gibson ( not too thin)

QuoteIt's true to say that the best guitars are built from the inside out, and Vintage enjoys a well-earned reputation for building great guitars.

And now, the superb line-up of exciting Vintage electric guitars just got even better.

Working with acknowledged guitar industry guru Trev Wilkinson, Vintage has introduced a fantastic line-up of Wilkinson-equipped Vintage electrics semi-acoustics and basses. Using Trev's excellent range of pickups, tuners and hardware has taken Vintage electrics to the next level.

Available in two ranges - ReIssued, for those who like their guitars bright and shiny, and the ready-aged Icon Series, whose distressed finishes include authentically aged Wilkinson hardware and look like they've gigged thirty years of smoky bars and concert halls.

The pros understand that Vintage performs and delivers with gusto – Paul Guerin and Guy Griffin of the Quireboys, Dave Colwell of Bad Company, Joe Elliott of Def Leppard, Neil Taylor of Robbie Williams band, John McCoy of Gillan, Pat McManus of Mama's Boys and Paul Raymond of UFO – just a few of the artists who are happy take a Vintage out on the road and gig night after night. Meanwhile, across the pond in Nashville, a whole host of session players and legendary Grand Ole Opry performers have been raving over the Vintage vibe and ethos.

The artist endorsements go further, with Signature models available for globally respected players and performers such as Midge Ure, Saxon founder member Graham Oliver, German guitar supremo Thomas Blug and the legendary Jerry Donahue.

How does Vintage manage to offer such incredible instruments at prices anyone can afford? The magic is in using knowledge for good, and doing it right. Because thats the right thing to do, because guitarists, young or old, new and hard-bitten deserve the best without compromise!

Vintage guitars – great looking, great sounding, great to play – and all at unbelievably competitive prices.

The best just got even better...

Perfect for mixing and mastering, EQuivocate's auditory filters and match EQ functionality make it incredibly powerful, simple to use, and natural sounding. EQuivocate uses filters which are modeled on the human ear. Each of the 26 critical bands tickles a different part of your inner ear, making any combination of settings sound as natural as possible. Combining this with a linear-phase filter shape that reduces pre-echo makes EQuivocate an EQ with a difference you can hear.

that's very tempting.  :o

If I didn't already own a Washburn oval hole Jazz box I'd buy one. The Washburn has a Piezo pickup in the bridge also and of course an added gk2. I redid the electronics so the pup selector switch is just a hole now.

I was curious on your choice, the natural or the sunburst?

Id jump on it if I had a gig playing jazz standards  - as often the band leader and audience "Listens with their eyes"

these new D'Angelicos are OK - they are Korean with polyester finish  - no carved top , no thin lacquer  - and Id miss not having a bridge PU

The deal on Guitar Center is buy one, get one free. Then they have a 25% off coupon (SAVE25). Put 5 in your cart, 5 are added, and enter the coupon. 3.73/pack of cobalts is a steal.

This deal may work with other strings also!!! YMMV

The sunburst. It plays really well, is extremely well made and gorgeous in-person, and most importantly: It has that great wood jazz-boat tone and breath to it. Do wonder what it would have been with lacquer, but it sounds and feels really great even with the poly.

And that headstock and stair-step tail piece are excessively cool.

I might have to do the same with a GK3 pickup for the D'an, after seeing your Washburn. What kinds of things do you do with the GK fitted on a jazz-boat?

we were playing a mix of jazz tunes (take five, stolen moments) and acoustic guitar based Latin fusion (Perpetual Emotion,Mediterranean Sundance) so the mix of the piezo and magnetic pickups worked well to achieve the required tones.

However we didn't have a bass player. So the GK 2 drove a VG 8 adding bass to the E&A strings.

I'd also add an acoustic guitar model when playing the Latin influenced pieces and mix that with the piezo in order to emphasize an acoustic guitar tone.

And for a few intro's I'd have a synth drone sustain and play a little lead over that synth drone and the other two guys doing droney stuff.

Sunburst is a good choice as it brings out the grain of the wood especially the flame Maple back.

It also sure looks great on that Gibson Howard Robert that Steve owns.

Guitars are so much fun.

It seems that they made a great error of calculation judging by the offer in many countries.
I have one since about 10 years ago when they made a settlement of this same model (in fact I think they did not have others if I remember correctly).).
And it is an exceptional guitar, with a great jazz sound and a great finish and quality of construction, which have little or nothing to envy to my other jazz guitars of much more value.
Is a very popular model among jazz guitarists, at this price is an absolute steal.

wait, do you mean I can have two box Jazz guitars? :o :D

I'm going to have to rethink this,one day left. At that price no fear of significant modifications like adding an internal GK kit and a nice 13 pin Jack hole out the side. I believe that company makes a piezo equipped Bridge that's used on a different jazz model that features only that pickup.

I have one since about 10 years ago when they made a settlement of this same model (in fact I think they did not have others if I remember correctly).).
And it is an exceptional guitar, with a great jazz sound and a great finish and quality of construction, which have little or nothing to envy to my other jazz guitars of much more value.
Is a very popular model among jazz guitarists, at this price is an absolute steal.

FWIW - There have been a few starts with resurrecting D'Angelico  -IMHO the version from 2010 was amazing - while these current production models while fine guitars, are slightly less stellar
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%27Angelico_Guitars

This was based upon playing them at NAMM shows

I did not know this, I've only tried one of the modern ones for a few minutes and I had a good impression and I keep hearing good comments from guitar players about the EXL.

Not sure if its a joke but why not? I have four  8)
And it will always stimulate you to play jazz, the most sophisticated and exciting music
I doubt very much you will regret it, and if you do wait some months and you probably can easily sell it for more than you paid.
not a joke, more like a happy realization of "yeah why not" like you said.

Thanks for the review and advise.

CONNECTIONS
Input and Output
Connect your instrument to the input and connect the output to the amplifier. The Dirt Clod is true bypass, which means that when it is off, there are no active components in the signal path.
Power
The Dirt Clod can be powered from any regulated 9VDC or 12VDC power supply capable of providing a minimum of 65mA. The rear panel POWER jack is a standard 2.1mm DC power jack, center negative connection.
MIDI
Connect the MIDI IN of the Dirt Clod to the MIDI OUT of your MIDI controller, or to the MIDI OUT of the last device in the MIDI chain. Additional MIDI devices can be connected from the MIDI THRU of the Dirt Clod.
QUICK START
The Dirt Clod default operating mode is PRESET mode. In this mode the 'A' footswitch is used to scroll through the presets, and the 'B' footswitch is used to enable or bypass the effect. (see Operating Modes on page 5 for more details)
Because the Dirt Clod uses presets, there are some differences between its operation and the operation of typical effect pedals. When the Dirt Clod gets enabled, it loads a preset from memory. It does not immediately load the settings of the knobs as you see them. The loaded preset may not have the same settings as that of the current knobs.
Once the Dirt Clod is enabled, turning a control knob will not modify its parameter until the knob becomes aligned with the same setting as that of the loaded preset. Once a knob has been aligned with the preset setting, it becomes "engaged", at which point it will function as a typical pedal knob.
As you turn the knobs, you may see the display change to a horizontal line. These lines can be used to locate the positions of knobs as they were saved in the current preset. The displayed line indicates where the current position of the knob is relative to the preset, either too high or too low, similar to the way a guitar tuner works.
If the middle line is displayed, then the knob is at the same position as that of the preset setting. If the top line is displayed, the current knob position is higher than the
4
preset setting. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to lower the value until the middle line is displayed. If the bottom line is displayed, the knob position is lower than the preset setting. Turn the knob clockwise to raise the value until the middle line is displayed.
Once the middle line is displayed, the knob is effectively "engaged" and will operate as a typical real-time control knob.
See the section "Working with Presets" for more details on saving presets.
TONE CONTROLS
DIRT
The DIRT knob controls the input gain. Turn the knob counter-clockwise for cleaner tones and clockwise for more drive and sustain. The Dirt Clod is capable of clean boost by turning this knob down, while turning up the MASS control.
FORM
Pressing on the DIRT knob toggles the FORM, which changes the clipping characteristics. With the LED off, the clipping is thicker and heavier. When the clip LED is on, the clipping will sound slightly compressed and more focused.
CORE
The CORE knob defines the body of the distortion. When set fully clockwise, you get a thick, full midrange. This is great for thick leads and blues tones. As you start to turn the knob counter-clockwise, you begin to thin out some of the midrange, giving more articulation to notes and chords. Turning further counter-clockwise begins to scoop some lower midrange, which can be great for removing low-mid mud.
CRYSTAL
The CRYSTAL knob controls the high frequencies. Turn clockwise for brighter grit and counterclockwise for a darker, more rolled off sound.
MASS
The MASS knob controls the output level. Turn clockwise for more volume and counter-clockwise for less volume. Use this knob in conjunction with the DIRT knob to distort before the amp or turn it up to overdrive a tube amp input.
A quick way to immediately enable the Dirt Clod and play with its settings is to press the footswitch and then sweep each knob down and up through its range.
5
WORKING WITH PRESETS
The 10 user presets can be selected using the footswitches in either PRESET mode or BANK mode. Please see the following section on Operating Modes for more details.
Loading a Preset
When the Dirt Clod gets enabled, a preset is loaded from memory. The control settings are taken from the saved preset and not from the physical position of the control knobs. Therefore, the position of the knobs may not be aligned with the settings of the loaded preset. For example, the loaded preset may have DIRT set at 11 o'clock, but the physical DIRT knob is set to 3 o'clock.
In order to quickly find the current preset's settings, the display is used to indicate knob position. Once a knob starts to rotate, the display will show whether the knob is set too high or too low, similar to the way an electronic tuner works. The upper line of the display is lighted if the current knob position is higher than the preset setting, and the lower line of the display is lighted if the current knob position is lower than the preset setting. Once the knob position is aligned with the preset setting, the middle line of the display will light.
Editing a Preset
When turning knobs, the control will not engage until the knob position reaches the setting of the currently loaded preset. For instance, in the previous example, turning the DIRT knob will not change the sound until the knob reaches the 11 o'clock position. Once the DIRT control is engaged, it will behave like an ordinary pedal knob. Once changes are made to the knob settings from that of the loaded preset, the yellow PRESET EDITED LED will light.
Saving a Preset
All knob settings can be saved to the current preset number at any time by simply pressing and holding the DIRT knob for 5 seconds. All of the LEDs will flash to indicate the preset has been saved.
OPERATING MODES
The top panel footswitches can function in two different modes to access presets.
BANK Mode
In BANK mode, the two switches act like two independent preset switches. Pressing the 'A' switch will toggle the A preset, and pressing the 'B' switch will toggle the B
6
preset. Pressing 'A' while 'B' is active will switch 'A' on and switch 'B' off, and vice-versa. In BANK mode, the 10 user presets are accessed in 5 banks of 2 presets, and the current bank number will be displayed. In order to change banks, press and hold the DIRT knob and then press 'B' to increment the bank, and 'A' to decrement the bank.
PRESET Mode
In PRESET mode, the 'B' footswitch is used to enable or bypass the preset, and the 'A' footswitch is used to scroll through the available preset numbers. When the Dirt Clod is bypassed, the display will show the pending preset number. Press the 'A' footswitch to change the pending preset until the desired preset number is displayed. Press the 'B' footswitch to enable the displayed preset.
Once a preset is enabled, you can use the 'A' footswitch to go directly to another preset without bypassing. Use the 'A' footswitch to select the next desired preset number. Notice that the decimal point will be displayed to indicate that the displayed preset number is pending (not active). Press the 'B' footswitch to activate the displayed preset.
In order to more effectively manage scrolling in PRESET mode, it is possible to set a limit on the number of presets used. This cuts down on the need to scroll through unused presets. For example, if you are only using 3 presets, then in preset mode you can use the 'A' footswitch to scroll 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, etc. See the section below for setting the preset limit.
Setting the operating mode
The Dirt Clod is initially set to PRESET mode. To change the mode settings, disconnect the power from the pedal. Press and hold the 'B' footswitch while applying power to the pedal. The display will indicate the current mode setting, 'P' (PRESET) or 'b'.(BANK). Use the 'A' and 'B' footswitches to change this setting as desired.
To change the preset limit when using PRESET mode, first select PRESET mode such that the display shows 'P'. Then, press the DIRT knob to display current preset limit. Turn the DIRT knob to change the limit from 2 to 0 (0=10). For example, setting the preset limit to 4 will limit PRESET mode access to only presets 1-4.
Exit by disconnecting power. Your settings will be saved.
MIDI
There are two ways that the Dirt Clod can be controlled via MIDI.
7
Dirt Clod presets can be recalled using any or all of 128 MIDI Program Changes. Each MIDI Program Change received by the Dirt Clod can be mapped to one of its 10 presets or to bypass. See "Mapping Presets" section below for details.
Real-time control of each of the Dirt Clod's parameters can be achieved using MIDI Continuous Controller messages. MIDI Expression Pedal data can be assigned to any of the 4 Dirt Clod knobs as well as the FORM switch (clip style). See "MIDI Continuous Controllers" section below.
Setting the MIDI Channel
The Dirt Clod defaults to receiving MIDI data on MIDI Channel 1. To change the MIDI channel for receiving MIDI data, first disconnect power from the pedal. Then, press and hold the 'A' footswitch while applying power to the pedal. The current MIDI Channel will be displayed. Use the 'A' and 'B' footswitches to change the channel. Available channels are 1-16 (channels 10-16 are indicated as 0-6 with the center yellow LED lighted). To save and exit, simply disconnect power to the pedal. Your MIDI Channel will be saved.
Mapping Presets
Any MIDI Program Change can be used to load any preset, or to bypass the pedal.
First, send any MIDI Program Change to the Dirt Clod on its set MIDI Channel. The Dirt Clod should respond by loading a preset or bypassing. If the Dirt Clod is not on the preset you would like, simply use the controls on the Dirt Clod to select the desired preset (or bypass it) just as you normally would. However, when making the selection, continue to hold the footswitch until the LEDs flash, indicating the MIDI change has been mapped. The Dirt Clod will now make this selected change each time that this MIDI Program Change is received.
MIDI Continuous Controllers
Any of the Dirt Clod's knob settings can be controlled in real time using MIDI Continuous Controllers. The following chart shows the CC#s for the various controls:
Function CC# Value
DIRT 34 0-127
CORE 35 0-127
CRYSTAL 36 0-127
MASS 37 0-127
FORM 38 0-63:OFF, 64-127:ON
So as not to cause a jump in parameter value when receiving MIDI CC data, the Dirt Clod will not begin to respond to MIDI CC data until the received CC value is the same as the current value of the corresponding control.

Agreed!  - I admit I purchased a few Decibel 11 items today

At these black friday sale prices, a DIY'er could not buy the parts for less cost

I understand these are "end of life" as Decibel 11 will be merging forces with PedalTrain

(https://static.bhphoto.com/images/images500x500/tascam_dr_10lw_dr_10l_mini_portabl_recorder_1497387331000_1331924.jpg)
Tascam DR-10L Digital Audio Recorder with Lavalier Mic (White) $139
Styled in a white color exclusively issued for B&H, the DR-10L Digital Audio Recorder with Lavalier Mic from Tascam is an ultra-compact, digital recorder and lavalier microphone combo with a screw-down locking connector compatible with most Sennheiser lavalier mics. It can be used for both the creative filmmaker and the busy videographer, and is also suitable for location recordings such as live events, and more.
Featuring 24-bit mono and 48 kHz BWAV (Broadcast Wav) file format, it records up to 32GB on microSD or microSDHC media. There is a 1/8" headphone-output jack for easy monitoring of recordings and the recorder runs on a single AAA battery, which records up to 10 hours.
Furthermore, the limiter function automatically reduces input level to prevent distortion and the dual recording mode records to two files simultaneously with different gain levels. The easy-to-read OLED display has a wide viewing angle, and the built-in micro-USB Type-B port provides for external power and easy file transfer to a computer.
Finally, designed as part of a complete audio toolkit, the DR-10L delivers a flexible set of solutions for any audio production issue.
Stealth Fighter
Building on the success of the DR-10X and the DR-10SG, the DR-10L marries the industry-standard TASCAM portable mini-recorder with a high-performance lavalier mic. Easy-to-use – and easy-to-wear – the DR-10L can become your secret weapon in the war against poor production audio.
Dual Recording Records Two Files Simultaneously at Different Levels
The DR-10L has several features to prevent distorted audio, but the most secure is dual recording. This feature captures a copy of your signal at a lower level, as a safety track in case of distortion.
Automatic File Closing Saves File Data Before the Battery Runs Out
You can always monitor the battery level on the easy-to-read OLED display. If the battery runs out in the middle of a recording, the unit will automatically save the file before turning off so your take isn't lost. The case is designed so that the batteries can be changed quickly, without removing the recorder from the camera shoe mount.
Automatic Level, Limiter, and Other Functions
If the input sound level is too low or too high, an automatic level function can increase or decrease the recording volume to an appropriate level. The limiter prevents distortion caused by sudden input overloads. These functions save you from worrying about recording-level settings in situations when there is no second chance.
Compact and Lightweight Body
The DR-10L has been designed to be small, light, and easy to conceal. Perfect for on-camera talent, documentary subjects, or entire wedding parties. The DR-10L can easily be hidden away so that nothing comes between you and the perfect shot.
Operates up to 10 Hours Continuously
One easily obtained alkaline AAA battery powers the DR-10L for up to 10 hours continuously. The DR-10L can also use disposable lithium or rechargeable NiMH batteries.

QuoteBest in-home studio-in-a-box available!

I do news over the radio for a network and for a major app that airs news 24/7. I have used this ProCast by Miktek set-up in my home and find I am able to produce studio-quality voiceovers and news reports, as well as editing ability with ease. In fact, I have heard my reports done from this unit played back on the radio and I am unable to distinguish the quality from this unit and the studio where the radio station sits. Its simply an amazing little piece of machinery for voice over work. The additional input is awesome too, I actually have a splitter and am able to run two to three sources through it into one pot. The only trick is setting the levels accordingly on each device being fed into it and wallah! For the price it can't be beat.

Brusfri Noise Reducer $29.99 until Dec. 3rd

Been using this plugin to get rid of 60 cycle hum from my Tele, works great, just click the learn button and poof any noise you want hiss, hum anything really without affecting your the original signal.

Brusfri* is a highly advanced audio noise reducer, packed into a simple and straight-forward interface. It is very well suited for cleaning up noisy audio recordings, while retaining sound quality. Unlike many other noise reducers on the market, Brusfri doesn't mess with audio phasing to suppress noise (a technique that often comes with audible side effects). Instead, multiple fine-tuned gates are used to silence unwanted noise.

* Brusfri means "Noise free" in Swedish.

The Westbury is a 21st-century update of the Supro electric solid-body guitar. The elegant comfort of the 1960's-era beveled-edge Ozark body shape and the mighty sound of the original field-coil pickups have been enhanced with an ultra-fast satin neck, Tune-o-matic bridge and updated wave tailpiece. The result is a modern player's instrument with old-school style and authentic Supro tone.

The unique Gold Foil pickups found in the Supro Westbury are faithful reproductions of the original magnetics developed for Valco by Ralph Keller in the early 1950s. These pickups, which gave voice to the vintage Chicago-made Supro guitars, have a massive, broadband sound with remarkably low noise for a single-coil design. The humbucker-sized Gold Foil bridge pickup found in the Westbury is slightly overwound, while the neck pickup is reverse-wound in order to provide fully hum-cancelling sound when the two pickups are combined by selecting the middle position of the 3-way toggle switch.

The time-tested tone wood recipe of an alder body paired with a 25 ½"-scale maple neck and rosewood fretboard combine with the Westbury's vintage-correct pickups to produce an exceptionally dynamic playing experience. Blending vintage American tone with refined set-neck design, the Supro Westbury is intended for the professional musician who needs an ergonomic and versatile guitar capable of handling most genres of music with authority. The Westbury's dual pickup configuration lets the player switch effortlessly between warm, single-coil neck pickup sounds, throaty bridge tones, or a perfectly balanced, parallel combination of both pickups for rhythm work. Case not included.

The Westbury guitar and its relatives in the Island Series represent the rebirth of the Supro brand as a stringed instrument manufacturer. The Supro Island Series of guitars was designed by David Koltai and Glenn Sweetwood, with technical assistance from master designer Trevor Wilkinson and vintage pickup expert Ken Calvet.

I actually purchased one of these a while ago during a deal alert post and I was surprised at the Quality of the recordings. I use it for recording things like geyser sounds at Yellowstone, thunderstorms, and pond frogs. The resulting wave files are easily dropped into Audacity and mixed into ambient songs.

Digital Performer 9.5
Buy now or upgrade now for these great new features...
New for 9.5: ZTX PRO™ Technology — Cutting-edge audio time-stretching and pitch-shifting DSP developed and refined through years of advanced, state-of-the-art R&D by the renowned engineering team at Zynaptiq GmbH (zynaptiq.com). Get ready to be blown away by how good it sounds.
New for 9.5: relative pitch editing — A new pitch editing layer in the Sequence Editor allows you to graphically transpose any audio material up or down by interval using a draggable pitch bar or a pencil tool for fine-tuned pitch correction, adding or removing vibrato and so on.
New for 9.5: Effect Performance window — Monitor the processing load of all currently instantiated virtual instruments and effects plug-ins in your project. Identify and manage plug-ins that impose high processing demands on your computer. Sort by name or processor load. See the exact bar and beat where each plug-in peaks. See which plug-ins are running pre-gen versus real-time, with hints as to why plug-ins are currently running in real time.
MX4™ MultiSynth — Now included with DP, MX4 is a powerful 64-bit virtual instrument plug-in featuring a hybrid synthesis engine that combines several forms of synthesis, including subtractive, wavetable, frequency modulation (FM), amplitude modulation (AM) and analog emulation. Included is a new EDM-inspired soundbank with 120 new presets.
Seven new plug-ins — Meticulously crafted plug-ins include the MasterWorks™ FET-76™ emulation of the classic 1176LN™ limiting amplifier (Revision D/E), MultiFuzz™ model of Craig Anderton's seminal QuadraFuzz™ distortion kit from the 70's, MicroG™ and MicroB™ polyphonic octave generators for guitar and bass, the mind-blowing MegaSynth™ subtractive synth processor, and the new Hardware Insert plug-in for bringing your outboard gear into your DP effects chains.
Automation lanes in the Sequence Editor — Display audio and MIDI automation data (volume, pan, plug-in settings, etc.) in separate lanes below each track for easier viewing and editing. Show and hide as many lanes as you wish.
Spectrogram display in the Sequence Editor — View the spectral content of each audio track, side by side with their waveforms, directly in the Sequence Editor timeline with a colorful, informative visual representation of the frequency content of your audio material.
New for 9.1: Reduced latency on OS X — Host buffer latency under CoreAudio has been cut in half. As an example, if you choose a buffer setting of 128 samples, version 9.1 yields 256 samples of total host latency (one buffer on input and one on output), plus any hardware latency. This will improve audio I/O latency and virtual instrument performance.
New for 9.1: Next-gen Pre-gen™ engine — DP's Next-generation Pre-gen engine transparently pre-renders audio output from virtual instruments and plug-ins to dramatically reduce their CPU load. Now optimized for greatly enhanced CPU performance, DP seamlessly manages transitions between pre-generated audio and live audio as needed (such as when you record a virtual instrument live).
New for 9.1: Enhanced Windows drivers — The latency of the WASAPI (Windows Audio) driver has been significantly reduced. This will improve audio I/O latency and virtual instrument performance. The CPU load of the sample rate conversion used in the Windows Audio driver has also been substantially reduced.
New for 9.1: Small buffer optimization — DP's MOTU Audio System (MAS) engine processing has been optimized to better support operation at smaller buffer sizes (for both Mac and Windows), for even lower latency performance overall.
Retina display support — View DP's carefully crafted UI themes like Carbon Fiber, Producer and all-new DP9 theme in stunning detail on the exceptionally high image resolution of your Mac's Retina display.
MusicXML export — Export your DP QuickScribe notation scores as a MusicXML file, which can then be imported into popular music notation applications like Finale™ and Sibelius™. QuickScribe's renowned notation transcription, along with dynamics and many other musical symbols, are preserved during the file transfer.
Create Tracks command — Add many tracks to your project in one step — even different types of tracks (MIDI, audio, aux, master faders, etc.) all at once.
Floating plug-in windows — Keep plug-in windows in front of all other DP windows. Set the floating preference globally or choose to float on a per-window basis.
MIDI Learn for audio plug-ins — Map knobs, faders and switches on your MIDI controller to audio plug-in parameters. Use Digital Performer’s powerful Custom Consoles feature to access advanced programming for the connection.
Mute MIDI Notes — Use the Mute Tool to temporarily silence both audio regions and MIDI notes, including multiple selected notes.
Project Notes — Save text notes in your DP project, rather than a separate text document. Log production info, keep a To Do list, build up liner notes.
More searching — Find Markers, Chunks and plug-in preferences faster with newly added search fields.

The Pocket Operator 20-Series Super Set from Teenage Engineering includes the PO-20 Arcade Synthesizer, the PO-24 Office Synthesizer, and the PO-28 Robot Synthesizer, along with three matching cases, three sync cables, and three pattern cards.
PO-20 Pocket Operator Arcade Synthesizer
Small enough to fit in your pocket and powered by a pair of AAA batteries, the Teenage Engineering PO-20 Pocket Operator Arcade Synthesizer features real synthesized arcade, drum, and chip-tune sounds with 16 punch-in effects including solo chords, filters, fill-ins, glitches, and arpeggios. The synthesizer parameters can be locked, while a 16-step sequencer, which holds 16 patterns in memory, can be chained into a song with up to 128 patterns. An integrated clock and alarm clock expand the creative possibilities of the instrument. A jam-sync function with 3.5mm audio in and out connections allows for multiple synthesizer units to be linked together.

Using high-quality components with low-power consumption, the synthesizer is cleverly designed with a Silabs EFM 32 Gecko CPU, a Cirrus Logic DAC, and a Knowles speaker placed under a novel animated LCD on a single circuit board. A foldout stand makes it easier to play and rear panel speaker solder terminals allow you hook up the unit to a larger sound system. An optional tailor-made silicone pro case (sold separately) adds anti-slip feet, battery protection, and professional-feel buttons to this very unique music-making device.

"The ultimate synth, organ, piano, and performance keyboard anthology.
21 seminal instruments, supercharged, and at your command."

Has a Clavinet ... What I've been wishing EHX would put in one their pedals.
On sale for $399 now.

If I want to get good results with the above software, would the GP-10 guitar interface be good enough, or is a Fishman really the way to go?

either work reasonably well - Tripleplay has a bit lower latency, but the GP-10 includes a good 24 bit audio interface and no drop outs on patch change ( unlike GR-55, VG-99)

Get a technically excellent mix with a breakthrough in audio visualization.

What it is:
A useful, beautiful set of audio visualization tools.

How we use it:
On the master during all phases of mixing and mastering.

Why it's cool:
Stunning graphics that are actually useful and insightful.
Metering Redesigned

Metering plugins are dull and unintuitive for the majority of music makers, yet crucial for getting a technically excellent mix. So we developed a tool that artists and producers would actually WANT to use. We wanted to give music producers a simple solution to assessing the technical details of their music, but with an AWESOME user experience.

Headroom
True peak meter to make sure your masters don't clip.
Standard peak meter. Keep it below -6dB for a perfect final mix
EBU R128 compliant integrated and short term LUFS meters. The most accurate way to analyse perceived loudness.
Stereo Field
Vectorscope to visualise stereo width.
Correlation meter to monitor phase issues.
Left/Right meter to assess the balance of your mix.
Low Pass button solos your low frequencies below 300hz so you can see their stereo width.
Dynamic Range
Instantly see if your music is overcompressed.
Oscilloscope glows green if your music is dynamic.
'DR' Dynamic Range display based on reliable Short Term LUFS to peak ratio.
Bass Space
Identifies if any channels are outputting unwanted low frequencies.
Helps you clean up your low end giving your track punch and clarity.
Level meters for 40Hz, 80Hz, 120Hz, 160Hz.

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1323896-REG/parrot_pazikblref_zik_headphones_refurbished_black.html
Refurbished and styled in black, these Parrot Zik Headphones are a wired and wireless solution for pairing with your mobile phone, tablet, computer, home theater receiver, or other Bluetooth or NFC capable device. The headphones were designed by Philippe Starck and feature Neodymium drivers, alloy head rails, synthetic leather memory foam earcups, active noise canceling, built-in motion, touch, and jawbone sensors, built-in microphones, and DSP control using the free Parrot Audio Suite application for iOS and Android.


Touch Control
Enables volume adjustments and track changes using vertical and horizontal swipes to a built-in, touch-sensitive panel on the ear shell
Presence Sensor
Automatically pauses the song when the headphones are around your neck and plays the song when the headphones are put back on your ears
Hands-Free Calling
Uses the touch-sensitive panel to accept, end, refuse, and switch between calls
Parrot Audio Suite App
Manages active noise cancelation, Parrot Concert Hall Effect, equalizer, firmware upgrade, battery level, and helpdesk on a free app for iOS and Android
EQ
Provides ±12 dB 7-band equalizer with center frequencies at 60 Hz, 150 Hz, 400 Hz, 1 kHz, 2.4 kHz, 6 kHz and 15 kHz, as well as presets such as flat, pop, club punchy, deep, crystal, and user
Pairing
Allows you to pair with smartphones, tablets, computers, and other Bluetooth-capable devices or by simply touching a Near Field Communication (NFC) device to the ear shell
Active Noise Cancelation
Utilizes a system of four microphones - two on the outside of the ear shell, and two on the inside with DSP signal processing to reduce residual ambient noise by up to 25 dB
Passive Noise Isolation
Reduces ambient noise bleed with semi-acoustically sealed ear shells
Bass Vented Ear Shell
Improves low-frequency response
Concert Hall Effect
Uses built-in DSP to expand the perception of the sound stage, as though you are listening in a Concert Hall
Voice Pickup

Reminds me of a Neumann console I worked on back in the 70s.  Huge, solid steel beast that had to be lifted into the control room with a crane.  Was closer to servicing a Mercedes Benz than one gets with current construction.

I bought two lightburst es-335s.  I tried to restrain myself, but have never seen a deal like this before. One will stay in the case and never played hopefully to flip for some profit later. I had an es-335 in the late 80s that I sold for a month's rent and never got over it--until now.

I believe most are already gone now

Received my ES-335 Lightbursts. Picked the one I will play and the one to be sold quite a while from now. The quality is superb. Perfect out of the box. And the sound!  Damn!  Better than the one I had 30 years ago. I know Gibson has had some quality control issues in the past, but that is not the case with these 2016/2017 instruments.

Same as my CME Floor Model ES-335 experience!

Not seeing this already, so here's for us "often FRFR" players.

Self-powered PA speakers, good deals

Fender $350 -

Gemini $99 -

I can vouch for Gemini, I use their 150W 8" self-powered for ultimate portable FRFR with the GP10 for open-air amphitheaters, coffee houses, bars, big-band stage, pit-bands. With or without mains.

Bonus for either of the above: XLR mix-out to mains, your sound guy will love you.
2nd Bonus for either of the above: Bluetooth pairing for whatever pre-gig tunes you'd like to pipe-out or source to play along with.

I picked up a ES Les Paul, can be had as one of these floor specials for $1695. Not the 'Studio' - the "real" ones with arched tops and piping.

Has the Memphis pickups, which have a killer 'old-funk-and-blues-player' vibe . They also get the JP / Zep tones (aside from the out-of-phase bits) without even trying. Probably the lightest real LP you'll ever play, at about 6 lbs.

Great construction, beautiful instrument. Construction is as a mini ES-335, same laminate woods and hollow-body construction. Nothing but great things to say about the Memphis team that put this together.

If you're looking for a light LP with killer character and not so much interested in the 1970s "Judas Priest" generic LP type tones (nothing wrong with those!), "these are the droids you're looking for."

Was thinking about getting some locking tuners, Steve - may still do so. But it's settled down after playing a bit.

If you need to go straight into a gig with brand-new strings, I'd say definitely get a locking-tuners solution.

CONNECTIONS
Input and Output
Connect your instrument to the input and connect the output to the amplifier. The Dirt Clod is true bypass, which means that when it is off, there are no active components in the signal path.
Power
The Dirt Clod can be powered from any regulated 9VDC or 12VDC power supply capable of providing a minimum of 65mA. The rear panel POWER jack is a standard 2.1mm DC power jack, center negative connection.
MIDI
Connect the MIDI IN of the Dirt Clod to the MIDI OUT of your MIDI controller, or to the MIDI OUT of the last device in the MIDI chain. Additional MIDI devices can be connected from the MIDI THRU of the Dirt Clod.
QUICK START
The Dirt Clod default operating mode is PRESET mode. In this mode the 'A' footswitch is used to scroll through the presets, and the 'B' footswitch is used to enable or bypass the effect. (see Operating Modes on page 5 for more details)
Because the Dirt Clod uses presets, there are some differences between its operation and the operation of typical effect pedals. When the Dirt Clod gets enabled, it loads a preset from memory. It does not immediately load the settings of the knobs as you see them. The loaded preset may not have the same settings as that of the current knobs.
Once the Dirt Clod is enabled, turning a control knob will not modify its parameter until the knob becomes aligned with the same setting as that of the loaded preset. Once a knob has been aligned with the preset setting, it becomes "engaged", at which point it will function as a typical pedal knob.
As you turn the knobs, you may see the display change to a horizontal line. These lines can be used to locate the positions of knobs as they were saved in the current preset. The displayed line indicates where the current position of the knob is relative to the preset, either too high or too low, similar to the way a guitar tuner works.
If the middle line is displayed, then the knob is at the same position as that of the preset setting. If the top line is displayed, the current knob position is higher than the
4
preset setting. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to lower the value until the middle line is displayed. If the bottom line is displayed, the knob position is lower than the preset setting. Turn the knob clockwise to raise the value until the middle line is displayed.
Once the middle line is displayed, the knob is effectively "engaged" and will operate as a typical real-time control knob.
See the section "Working with Presets" for more details on saving presets.
TONE CONTROLS
DIRT
The DIRT knob controls the input gain. Turn the knob counter-clockwise for cleaner tones and clockwise for more drive and sustain. The Dirt Clod is capable of clean boost by turning this knob down, while turning up the MASS control.
FORM
Pressing on the DIRT knob toggles the FORM, which changes the clipping characteristics. With the LED off, the clipping is thicker and heavier. When the clip LED is on, the clipping will sound slightly compressed and more focused.
CORE
The CORE knob defines the body of the distortion. When set fully clockwise, you get a thick, full midrange. This is great for thick leads and blues tones. As you start to turn the knob counter-clockwise, you begin to thin out some of the midrange, giving more articulation to notes and chords. Turning further counter-clockwise begins to scoop some lower midrange, which can be great for removing low-mid mud.
CRYSTAL
The CRYSTAL knob controls the high frequencies. Turn clockwise for brighter grit and counterclockwise for a darker, more rolled off sound.
MASS
The MASS knob controls the output level. Turn clockwise for more volume and counter-clockwise for less volume. Use this knob in conjunction with the DIRT knob to distort before the amp or turn it up to overdrive a tube amp input.
A quick way to immediately enable the Dirt Clod and play with its settings is to press the footswitch and then sweep each knob down and up through its range.
5
WORKING WITH PRESETS
The 10 user presets can be selected using the footswitches in either PRESET mode or BANK mode. Please see the following section on Operating Modes for more details.
Loading a Preset
When the Dirt Clod gets enabled, a preset is loaded from memory. The control settings are taken from the saved preset and not from the physical position of the control knobs. Therefore, the position of the knobs may not be aligned with the settings of the loaded preset. For example, the loaded preset may have DIRT set at 11 o'clock, but the physical DIRT knob is set to 3 o'clock.
In order to quickly find the current preset's settings, the display is used to indicate knob position. Once a knob starts to rotate, the display will show whether the knob is set too high or too low, similar to the way an electronic tuner works. The upper line of the display is lighted if the current knob position is higher than the preset setting, and the lower line of the display is lighted if the current knob position is lower than the preset setting. Once the knob position is aligned with the preset setting, the middle line of the display will light.
Editing a Preset
When turning knobs, the control will not engage until the knob position reaches the setting of the currently loaded preset. For instance, in the previous example, turning the DIRT knob will not change the sound until the knob reaches the 11 o'clock position. Once the DIRT control is engaged, it will behave like an ordinary pedal knob. Once changes are made to the knob settings from that of the loaded preset, the yellow PRESET EDITED LED will light.
Saving a Preset
All knob settings can be saved to the current preset number at any time by simply pressing and holding the DIRT knob for 5 seconds. All of the LEDs will flash to indicate the preset has been saved.
OPERATING MODES
The top panel footswitches can function in two different modes to access presets.
BANK Mode
In BANK mode, the two switches act like two independent preset switches. Pressing the 'A' switch will toggle the A preset, and pressing the 'B' switch will toggle the B
6
preset. Pressing 'A' while 'B' is active will switch 'A' on and switch 'B' off, and vice-versa. In BANK mode, the 10 user presets are accessed in 5 banks of 2 presets, and the current bank number will be displayed. In order to change banks, press and hold the DIRT knob and then press 'B' to increment the bank, and 'A' to decrement the bank.
PRESET Mode
In PRESET mode, the 'B' footswitch is used to enable or bypass the preset, and the 'A' footswitch is used to scroll through the available preset numbers. When the Dirt Clod is bypassed, the display will show the pending preset number. Press the 'A' footswitch to change the pending preset until the desired preset number is displayed. Press the 'B' footswitch to enable the displayed preset.
Once a preset is enabled, you can use the 'A' footswitch to go directly to another preset without bypassing. Use the 'A' footswitch to select the next desired preset number. Notice that the decimal point will be displayed to indicate that the displayed preset number is pending (not active). Press the 'B' footswitch to activate the displayed preset.
In order to more effectively manage scrolling in PRESET mode, it is possible to set a limit on the number of presets used. This cuts down on the need to scroll through unused presets. For example, if you are only using 3 presets, then in preset mode you can use the 'A' footswitch to scroll 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, etc. See the section below for setting the preset limit.
Setting the operating mode
The Dirt Clod is initially set to PRESET mode. To change the mode settings, disconnect the power from the pedal. Press and hold the 'B' footswitch while applying power to the pedal. The display will indicate the current mode setting, 'P' (PRESET) or 'b'.(BANK). Use the 'A' and 'B' footswitches to change this setting as desired.
To change the preset limit when using PRESET mode, first select PRESET mode such that the display shows 'P'. Then, press the DIRT knob to display current preset limit. Turn the DIRT knob to change the limit from 2 to 0 (0=10). For example, setting the preset limit to 4 will limit PRESET mode access to only presets 1-4.
Exit by disconnecting power. Your settings will be saved.
MIDI
There are two ways that the Dirt Clod can be controlled via MIDI.
7
Dirt Clod presets can be recalled using any or all of 128 MIDI Program Changes. Each MIDI Program Change received by the Dirt Clod can be mapped to one of its 10 presets or to bypass. See "Mapping Presets" section below for details.
Real-time control of each of the Dirt Clod's parameters can be achieved using MIDI Continuous Controller messages. MIDI Expression Pedal data can be assigned to any of the 4 Dirt Clod knobs as well as the FORM switch (clip style). See "MIDI Continuous Controllers" section below.
Setting the MIDI Channel
The Dirt Clod defaults to receiving MIDI data on MIDI Channel 1. To change the MIDI channel for receiving MIDI data, first disconnect power from the pedal. Then, press and hold the 'A' footswitch while applying power to the pedal. The current MIDI Channel will be displayed. Use the 'A' and 'B' footswitches to change the channel. Available channels are 1-16 (channels 10-16 are indicated as 0-6 with the center yellow LED lighted). To save and exit, simply disconnect power to the pedal. Your MIDI Channel will be saved.
Mapping Presets
Any MIDI Program Change can be used to load any preset, or to bypass the pedal.
First, send any MIDI Program Change to the Dirt Clod on its set MIDI Channel. The Dirt Clod should respond by loading a preset or bypassing. If the Dirt Clod is not on the preset you would like, simply use the controls on the Dirt Clod to select the desired preset (or bypass it) just as you normally would. However, when making the selection, continue to hold the footswitch until the LEDs flash, indicating the MIDI change has been mapped. The Dirt Clod will now make this selected change each time that this MIDI Program Change is received.
MIDI Continuous Controllers
Any of the Dirt Clod's knob settings can be controlled in real time using MIDI Continuous Controllers. The following chart shows the CC#s for the various controls:
Function CC# Value
DIRT 34 0-127
CORE 35 0-127
CRYSTAL 36 0-127
MASS 37 0-127
FORM 38 0-63:OFF, 64-127:ON
So as not to cause a jump in parameter value when receiving MIDI CC data, the Dirt Clod will not begin to respond to MIDI CC data until the received CC value is the same as the current value of the corresponding control.

Would be great if decibel11 put some of that energy into responding to e-mail.  Sent an inquiry about sysex spec for Switch Doctor and they never bothered to reply.  A simple "not available" or "..go jump in a lake" is preferable to being ignored.

They are liquidating inventory, as as the Principals have now joined forces with Pedal Train

Decibel 11 is currently run as a liquidation sale site, with only sales staff available - no tech support.

You Spoke, We Listened
At Monoprice, we take cutomer opinions very seriously. We have taken our
customer reviews to heart and improved the spring reverb and made some
cosmetic changes to simplify operation over the previous version of this amp.


15-Watt Tube Amplifier



Tubes are King
In a world dominated by innovation and digital emulation the vacuum tube or valve is
still the undisputed king of the guitar amplification world.

Versatile and Durable
The amp features a low and a high input, an improved reverb tank, an FX loop, and a
3-band equilizer. The Celestion Seventy 80 is detailed and crisply defined, with a tightly
controlled low-end and punchy, aggressive upper mid-range. The top-end response is
also subtly increased.

Good news from BandLab Technologies! After acquiring the Cakewalk brand and assets from Gibson, the company is rebooting Sonar, a popular "alternative" DAW, as Cakewalk by BandLab. What's more, the software is completely free to download for Windows.

Since BandLab has partnered up with Microsoft, Sonar a.k.a. Cakewalk will remain a Windows exclusive. So get Reaper or whatever if you are on a Mac. Owing to the Microsoft partnership, the DAW is getting pen, Bluetooth MIDI, multi-touch, and Surface Dial support throughout the user interface, which is dandy if you own present-day Microsoft tablets or computers.

Available as an "early access" download, Cakewalk by BandLab includes all core premium features of SONAR Platinum, such as the Skylight user interface, ProChannel modules, and 64-bit mix engine. BandLab says there's an "aggressive" feature development roadmap for the software ahead and it will remain completely free to use as to "ensure anyone, regardless of their resources, technology or stage in their career can have access."

In other words, this is a fully-featured DAW that's going free — wonderful news, indeed!

You can read more about Cakewalk and grab the download over at BandLab's.

Available as an "early access" download, Cakewalk by BandLab includes all core premium features of SONAR Platinum, such as the Skylight user interface, ProChannel modules, and 64-bit mix engine. BandLab says there's an "aggressive" feature development roadmap for the software ahead and it will remain completely free to use as to "ensure anyone, regardless of their resources, technology or stage in their career can have access."

In other words, this is a fully-featured DAW that's going free — wonderful news, indeed!

You can read more about Cakewalk and grab the download over at BandLab's.

The guy that owns Bandlab/Cakewalk, Meng Ru, also owns a Singaporean/Asian music retail chain that has an online store as well - Swee Lee. When Roland owned Cakewalk I got emails about Roland products. I suspect Meng may use Cakewalk as a way to promote Swee Lee or he may have a larger vision. They are taking tips, as in $$$, and I wouldn't be surprised if they sell plugins or plugin bundles in the future.

PSEUDO STEREO WITHOUT PHASE ISSUES
Wider takes the massively popular stereo section from its sibling, Manipulator, and creates the illusion of an expanded stereo image of a mono signal to an awe-inspiring amount of width. However, Wider is a unique stereo plugin in the sense that it is completely "mono-compatible", meaning that any signal that has been extended will always remain in phase with itself, even if summed to mono.

Watch the video below and see how it works:
https://youtu.be/mdIx6pT55os


BROADEN YOUR HORIZONS
Many stereo effects currently in use have the nasty habit of knocking signals out of phase, which can quickly make a track sound muddy and unbalanced, or make sounds seem flat and lacking dynamics if one isn't mindful of the effect. Thanks to Wider's one-of-a-kind all pass and comb filtering algorithm, a natural sounding stereo image is created from a mono channel, without compromising the phase between the sides! Instead, Wider cancels itself out when summed to mono, so the original signal is left intact.

Wider can be used to increase the stereo image of any mono signal up to 200% of full stereo for an extra wide, exaggerated effect.

EXTRAORDINARY SPACE, PROFESSIONAL CLARITY
No matter how far out and experimental Infected Mushroom's sounds get, they always keep their channels clean, crisp, and translatable without sacrificing power. Now you can achieve the same depth and clarity, absolutely free.

Just a comment: wider is brilliant - it allowed me to stereoize a mono source convincingly - I often record rehearsals, gigs and choir practice in mono so I can remember exactly what we did.  This plug in is absolutely essential.  I would have paid for it!

its all about time to market and controlling the costs of UL/CE Compliance for various regions
They will consign to JET
http://www.goncharov-jet.com/
to obtain UL/CE compliance for their OEM  Roland PSB-1U Power Brick - and then when they employ the identical Roland PSB-1U Power Brick on several products ( VG-99, GR-55, Cube Street, RC300, RC-505, Handsonic HD-10, etc) 

that lowers the cost to Roland / Boss, and gets the new Roland/ Boss gear to your Dealer faster

You need to log in to pluginboutique.com using the email you used when purchasing it in order to retrieve the authorization code.  You must then enter that code into the iLok license manager desktop app and then download and install Hybrid 3 from the AIR website.

The purchase wasn't through pluginboutique.com. It was vstbuzz.com as listed in the deal post. Anyway, I contacted their support contact again. Who knows? Maybe they'll reply this time.

Tascam US-42 Overview
1
2
3
4
Designed for gamecasters—i.e. those who broadcast their gaming prowess over the web—as well as podcasters wishing to expand their horizons, the Tascam MiNiSTUDIO Creator US-42 is a high-speed USB 2.0 interface. It's capable of capturing 24-bit/96 kHz audio, compatible with Mac and Windows computers, works with most DAW software, and can even interface with iOS devices using an adapter (available separately). With its intuitive layout and various inputs for recording the human voice, it can give you the tools to introduce many elements into the milieu of your podcast, such as the ability to record guitar directly, as well as the support for two microphones at once—should you have guests coming over to chat.

For inputs, the US-42 sports two High-Definition Discrete-Architecture preamps, two combination XLR/TRS connections, a 3.5mm jack suitable for headset mics, and an auxiliary 3.5mm stereo input most agreeable for introducing the signal of consumer-grade audio equipment. In addition to the stereo RCA outputs for connecting to monitors, the unit offers two headphone outputs-one 1/4", one 3.5mm-as well as 48V phantom power for condenser microphones and support for 4-pole headphone/mic configurations.


Hardware Overview
The US-42 features an efficient hardware layout that clearly displays its various features. Glancing at the tabletop interface, you'll see the sizable level meter in the middle for monitoring incoming signal. It sits between two combination XLR / 1/4" TRS jacks for accepting your microphone signals. Below this row of features, a reverb-blend knob sits prominently between two input-selector switches.

The lower portion of the interface clearly shows two output knobs—one for monitors, one for your various headphones—three pads for triggering on-board sound effects, and an effect on/off pad. Thus, while creating your broadcast, you'll have the tools you need to keep the show running at your fingertips.
Included Software
This device comes with software for better utilizing the hardware component of the US-42. The software features two panels, giving you an Easy view into the system and an Expert peak behind the curtain, so to speak.

The Easy panel breaks down your options for manipulating signal into three overarching categories: Sound (presets for your particular sonic setup), Effect (presets for manipulating your vocals upon pressing the effect on/off pad), and Reverb (types of ambiance with which you can effect your vocal). Beneath these knobs, you can assign the sounds of the trigger pads, and set their volume as well.

The Expert panel, on the other hand, gives you comprehensive controls of the US-42's compressor, equalizer, and reverb. In this panel, you also have control over buffer size, as well as the ability to manipulate the trigger pad's settings further; for example, you can set the rate of fade-in and fade-out for the sample being triggered.

2 x HDDA (High Definition Discrete Architecture) Preamps

How Much Quality Can You Pack into a Travel-sized Guitar?
The Cordoba Mini SM-CE acoustic-electric nylon-string guitar's solid cedar top and attractive spalted maple back and sides offer evidence that travel-sized guitars don't have to cut back on style. A padauk rosette and binding and a bone nut and saddle further accentuate this guitar's eye-catching looks. The Mini SM-CE plays like a full-sized classical guitar, by virtue of its 1.96" nut width. An onboard 2-band active piezo pickup takes the Mini SM-CE beyond the campfire and onto the stage. Packed with warm tone that's framed by a crisp top end, the Cordoba Mini SM-CE acoustic-electric nylon-string guitar sounds as great as it looks.



Cordoba Mini SM-CE Acoustic-electric Nylon-string Guitar at a Glance:
The ideal travel guitar
Great acoustic and amplified tone
Cordoba - the nylon-string guitar experts
The ideal travel guitar
The Cordoba Mini SM-CE is a piece of cake to play, thanks to its ultra-compact body, easy-access cutaway, and 1.96" nut width. Its smaller body size makes the Mini SM-CE ideal for traveling, younger players, or anyone who wants a smaller-sized guitar. And the 1.96" nut width and 20" scale length give you a familiar feel and make it easy to form chords and change positions. The Cordoba Mini SM-CE can be tuned to standard E tuning or up a 4th to A.

Great acoustic and amplified tone
While the Cordoba Mini SM-CE is reasonably priced, Cordoba didn't skimp on quality. Its spalted maple back and sides produce a nice, bright top end that complements its solid cedar top wonderfully, giving you the right blend of warmth and brilliance. A solid mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard add warmth and nuance to your playing. And Cordoba electronics and a comfortable cutaway make playing your Mini live easy and enjoyable. Take it from Sweetwater - the Cordoba Mini SM-CE is an ideal travel guitar for nylon-string performers.

Cordoba - the nylon-string guitar experts
Cordoba first began manufacturing guitars in 1997. Blending traditional craftsmanship with modern elements, Cordoba states that their vision is to guide the evolution of the nylon-string guitar. Heavily influenced by Spanish tradition, every Cordoba guitar is lightweight, responsive, and tonally balanced. Cordoba also produces boutique steel-string instruments; however, such instruments are approached from a classical or Spanish guitar-building perspective. If you're searching for a quality nylon-string guitar, Cordoba should be at the top of your list.

Cordoba Mini SM-CE Acoustic-electric Nylon-string Guitar Features:
Great-sounding travel guitar with full-sized neck and nut width
1.96" nut width is comfortable and easy to play
Cutaway shape makes reaching upper frets a piece of cake
Spalted maple back and sides provide brilliant-sounding top end
Solid cedar top for excellent warmth and projection
Cordoba 2-band active piezo pickup system offers great plugged-in sound
Comfortable U-shaped mahogany neck
This instrument can be tuned in standard E tuning or up a 4th to A
The Cordoba Mini SM-CE acoustic-electric is a great travel-sized nylon-string guitar!


QuotePerfect Travel Classical Guitar - Finely crafted
April 20, 2017

Michael, Gainesville

I am very pleased with the instrument. It is exactly what I expected. I would venture to say that your level of satisfaction with the instrument will depend upon your expectations and purpose for buying the instrument. I am very pleased with the guitar because I am a classical guitarist who wanted a highly portable travel guitar that allows me practice at work, while riding in a car or waiting anywhere. The gig bag, which is included, is good quality and I am able to sling the guitar over my back and take it anywhere. The most important thing for me is that the neck is normal width and the first 5 frets are standard size. This makes it an excellent practice instrument for simple classical tunes. If you are a classical guitarist who wants a travel instrument for basic tunes, this is a good buy. I am also very pleased with the craftsmanship of the guitar. While it is made in China, they did a nice job. The binding is beautiful and it is a really nice little instrument. The sound is good for what it is, which is a small guitar. It comes tuned up a fourth from standard tuning. I prefer lower tension stings so I tuned it up a third (G-C-F-Bb-D-G). I have seen that they have recently released a standard tuning set of strings and I may get a set and give them a try.

Here is what the guitar is NOT. It is not a concert or performance instrument. it sounds good for what it is which is a practice tool. I am not planning to use it for performances. It is not a steel string guitar. if you are looking for a small steel sounding acoustic, This is not it and there are probably better options out there for you.

Overall, I am really pleased with the guitar. It has a pretty good sound and is a decent practice instrument. After playing if for about a month, the one thing that I think would make it better is if they had just gone ahead and made it 5 inches longer and made the neck completely standard size. The extra length would not have made that much of a difference in the overall size and portability of the instrument and it would have made it possible to practice everything on it.

Ultimately, I like the guitar very much and am pleased I bought it. I now play all over the place and, if I know I may be waiting somewhere, or my wife is driving, or I am going to be sitting at a lot of red lights (lol), I take it with me. It is great for lunchtime practice at work or just to take a few minutes and play a tune or two,

Pros:
Highly portable
Great craftsmanship, a beautiful little guitar
Standard neck width and first 5 frets.
really good sound for its size

Cons:
None for me

Tascam US-42 Overview
1
2
3
4
Designed for gamecasters—i.e. those who broadcast their gaming prowess over the web—as well as podcasters wishing to expand their horizons, the Tascam MiNiSTUDIO Creator US-42 is a high-speed USB 2.0 interface. It's capable of capturing 24-bit/96 kHz audio, compatible with Mac and Windows computers, works with most DAW software, and can even interface with iOS devices using an adapter (available separately). With its intuitive layout and various inputs for recording the human voice, it can give you the tools to introduce many elements into the milieu of your podcast, such as the ability to record guitar directly, as well as the support for two microphones at once—should you have guests coming over to chat.

For inputs, the US-42 sports two High-Definition Discrete-Architecture preamps, two combination XLR/TRS connections, a 3.5mm jack suitable for headset mics, and an auxiliary 3.5mm stereo input most agreeable for introducing the signal of consumer-grade audio equipment. In addition to the stereo RCA outputs for connecting to monitors, the unit offers two headphone outputs-one 1/4", one 3.5mm-as well as 48V phantom power for condenser microphones and support for 4-pole headphone/mic configurations.


Hardware Overview
The US-42 features an efficient hardware layout that clearly displays its various features. Glancing at the tabletop interface, you'll see the sizable level meter in the middle for monitoring incoming signal. It sits between two combination XLR / 1/4" TRS jacks for accepting your microphone signals. Below this row of features, a reverb-blend knob sits prominently between two input-selector switches.

The lower portion of the interface clearly shows two output knobs—one for monitors, one for your various headphones—three pads for triggering on-board sound effects, and an effect on/off pad. Thus, while creating your broadcast, you'll have the tools you need to keep the show running at your fingertips.
Included Software
This device comes with software for better utilizing the hardware component of the US-42. The software features two panels, giving you an Easy view into the system and an Expert peak behind the curtain, so to speak.

The Easy panel breaks down your options for manipulating signal into three overarching categories: Sound (presets for your particular sonic setup), Effect (presets for manipulating your vocals upon pressing the effect on/off pad), and Reverb (types of ambiance with which you can effect your vocal). Beneath these knobs, you can assign the sounds of the trigger pads, and set their volume as well.

The Expert panel, on the other hand, gives you comprehensive controls of the US-42's compressor, equalizer, and reverb. In this panel, you also have control over buffer size, as well as the ability to manipulate the trigger pad's settings further; for example, you can set the rate of fade-in and fade-out for the sample being triggered.
Notable Features at a Glance
2 x HDDA (High Definition Discrete Architecture) Preamps
2 x XLR/TRS input jack for balanced inputs

Pigtronix Mothership 2 Analog Synthesizer Pedal
(https://dshowmusic.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/pigtronix-mothership-2-analog-synth-pedal-01.jpg)

1. DC 18V - Mothership 2 requires 18VDC power @ 300mA using a 2.1mm connector with negative tip polarity.

2. SUB OUT - The SUB jack is an auxiliary output for low frequency content created by the Sub Octave voice. When using the SUB OUT jack, the Sub Octave voice will be removed from the main output
WARNING: The SUB OUT should only be sent to an audiosystem that can handle significant amounts of low frequency content.

3. OUTPUT - Effect output. Plug in your amp, mixer, or DI box here.

4. EXPRESSION - This is the TRS (Stereo) 20K expression pedalinput for pitch bend. A TS (Mono) cable can also be used to inject control voltage (CV) signals into the Mothership 2 to the pitch of the VCO (triangle wave) and (square wave) voices.

Note: When the SYNC function is turned on, the expression pedal sweeps through the overtones that result from slaving the VCO to the pitch tracking system.

5. INPUT - Effect input. Plug in your instrument here.

The Pigtronix Mothership 2 goes lightyears beyond the original Mothership.

Mothership 2 is a velocity sensitive, pitch-tracking, 3-voice analog synthesizer with oscillator hard sync and pitch modulation via portamento and CV / Expression control. Housed in a compact aluminum chassis, this state-of-the-art pedal goes lightyears beyond the original Mothership, delivering a user-friendly guitar synth with real-time pitch and amplitude tracking, switchable preset tunings and a devastating Sync effect that delivers new modulation effects for guitar, bass and anyone brave enough to plug in to the analog future of Pigtronix.

The dashboard of the Mothership 2 contains five custom-made, dual-concentric potentiometers and a pair of toggle switches. The top row of controls provides individual level knobs for VCO (triangle wave) and Square wave voices as well as the original Clean guitar sound and a gut-busting Sub-octave Sine wave voice that can be removed from the main mix bus and sent to its own dedicated bass amplifier when the SUB output jack is used.

The middle row of controls provides Master Volume, Glide, Fine Tune and an adjustable Dynamics function that allows the player to adjust the "feel" of the synth's amplitude tracking.

The bottom row of controls contains the 3-way tuning switch with Unison, Octave Up, and Interval (MAJ 3rd, 4th, 5th) presets as well as a new Sync function that slaves the VCO's triangle and square wave oscillators to the input signal, creating a pitch-locked, unison sound with complex harmonics and overtones that can be modulated.

The Sync effect found in the Mothership 2 can be dialed in to create a staggering array of unique sounds using the Sweep and Timbre controls as well the on-board Glide function to achieve modulation and pitch effects that sweep from one note to another with adjustable timing. An optional expression pedal / CV input can also be used to modulate the VCO in parallel with the on-board knobs and Glide function, creating "Sync Sweep" effects from another planet.

that's too funny.

Did order one of those $50 M audios tones modules, and I needed a can of deoxit anyway..

I was wondering when they were going to start giving those away.

I'm guessing its class compliant USB midi in only.

Why Roland why?

Edit. I did wind up canceling the order for the M-Audio module after reading some of the reviews and doesn't look like it's rack-mountable. It's nice to see I still have a case of good dealitis though.

The deoxit is still on the way however

Discussion of TLC vs MLC
https://slickdeals.net/f/12447442-adata-su800-2tb-sata-ssd-209-99?src=frontpage

QuoteQuote from trailerpark  Performance vs SAMSUNG 860 PRO ?
They are very different drives.
The 860 Pro is MLC based: Each memory cell has 4 states. The Adata is based on Micron's TLC. Each cell has 8 power states. Endurance and speed is better on MLC than TLC. That said, the pure speed difference is not significant on SATA interface for daily uses and endurance of both drives is probably more than you can use at this point before the drive and your computer becomes completely obsolete..

SDRUM: I find it very handy to create decent sounding percussion for tunes that I don't hear the beat I want with other canned drum sources. $58 is well worth having this little tool for home recording.

Gibson 2017 Firebird Studio T Electric Guitar Pelham Blue
Firebird Studio 2017 T is light, nimble and fast. This hard-working rendition of Gibson's original Firebird focuses on what matters most to the working guitarist: tone and playability. The 496R and 496T humbuckers are absolute powerhouses, ready to rock the house with grind and aggression that go beyond traditional humbuckers. Exquisitely polished frets allow for smoother bends and a better feel, while vintage looks will be sure to make you stand out both in studio and on stage. The guitar comes delivered in a padded gigbag, with a strap and polishing cloth.

FX150 Reviews
https://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=11801.msg83914#msg83914

Ive been using FX150 for a few years and this works well as a small monitor - it does compress a bit, but no distortion  / smooth sound for most DSP modelers
And the SingThing was 100% designed by the original TC Helicon  / Tannoy team  - before the TC acquisition by Behringer

Has a Tannoy designed 6.5" Co-Ax time aligned driver and efficient 150Watts RMS - blows away similar small monitors 

Mounts on a mike stand and puts your sound and vocal controls right at arms reach

Has MIDI Control

And compatible with the Switch-6  Footswitch
https://www.tc-helicon.com/Categories/Tchelicon/Accessories/Footswitches-and-Remote-Controls/SWITCH-6/p/P0CMA#googtrans(en|en)


Has a 30 second Looper

But 42.5VDC @ 1.5A power supply brick requirement presents a hurdle when busking



Typically $399

Refurbished $219

QuoteBoss GT-1000 is at Guitar Center in store $799.00 right now. And they have 48 months no interest right now. I was about to bite then Fractal came out with their new one. That has USB Audio. I had the GT1000. But sold it to go back to ATOMIC. But I miss the USB audio. And Boss sounds so good through headphones with jam tracks. Atomic just doesn't cut it with headphones.

I don't regret having paid more than blowout for a bunch of these, since they are great, musical, player inspiring pedals.  The Carcosa was an insanely great fuzz for $100.  Definitely considering getting another for backup and alternate settings.

this was in my email today.

"Nobody likes to pay sales tax, but everyone must pay sales tax! B&H, and only B&H, has the solution to the sales tax issue.

Tomorrow, May 7th, B&H will be making a game-changing announcement, and as a loyal customer, I'd like you to be privy to some inside information in advance that will change your shopping experience forever.

Nearly one year ago, the Supreme Court ruled that out-of-state retailers must collect sales tax on internet sales. This, of course, included B&H. For 46 years we have been committed to providing unparalleled customer service, and so we began the tedious process of implementing a way to eliminate the impact this ruling would have on our customers.

We are now ready to launch "Payboo", the solution to the sales-tax challenge. Tune in tomorrow for details on how to become a part of "Payboo"!

I know you have many shopping choices for creative gear and consumer electronics, but with "Payboo", there will only be one best choice: B&H!

I look forward to a continued great business relationship and remember, at B&H, the customer always comes first. That's why we've created "Payboo" to solve the sales tax impact for you.

Sincerely,

Menashe Horowitz

Something about their explanation of benefits seems a bit too cute.  They never really claim to rebate the sales tax as spendable credit, but continually reference "claim your reward".  I'll wait to hear of others' experiences before considering it.

I bought two - one for my HX Effects and one for my Gigboard. It doesn't fit my GT-1000. My only complaint is there is no carry strap - only a shoulder strap, and the bottom could have more padding. But for the price I can live with and fix that.

Guitar Center has up to 25% off qualifying items.   

One of the 25% off items is a Jet City Amplification Jettenuator Amp Power Attenuator.  Comes to $150 after using the code SAVE25.

https://www.guitarcenter.com/Jet-City-Amplification/Jettenuator-Amp-Power-Attenuator-1500000007873.gc

I have this unit, and it is great.  Also acts as a DI Box if you wish.  One of the only Attenuators that work for all Ohms (4/8/16) at anywhere near this price.

Looks like  Behringer is dropping prices on both the Neutron and Model D to under $230.00 dealer sell price. Since many dealers offer 10% off sales during holidays, does this mean $200 synths? Over production or just trying to market more of these or is it a devalued yen?

Maybe the Chinese tariffs are working.  ;D

It certainly will kill the used market sales for awhile.

I really love my 84, and play it at least 95% of the time. I was thinking of grabbing an 85, but not sure how the Rosewood neck would fair against my 84's maple neck. I might grab another 84 at that price.

Squiers are good platforms for modding and for testing your ideas before you try anything on a costlier guitar. I wound up keeping and using my Squiers more than my Fender. Lighter, sound good, feel good, and I'm the kinda person who likes to swap the knobs and switches out for better quality -- I'm well satisfied.

A great unit, but has one flaw.  The gain knob needs to be on for any sound, thus it is not a clean power amp, like the EH 44 Caliber, or the SD PowerStage.  But, a handy backup.

Great unit, in a pinch. 

The flaw is that you have to turn up the gain to get sound out of it, thus not getting the sound that you put into it.

There are VG-99 on ebay for less than $500, and they include the original Roland power supply!!!!  :D

No problem for me, but when noise does occur, I often modify my  1/4" effect to effect patch cables and lift the ground on problem effects  = no ground loop noise

But at $19.99 with all the included adapter cables  - Its like getting the power supply free

These are great!  Saved all of my father's 80's tascam reel to reel recordings this way.  Those tapes sucked after sitting around but baking them was the trick to getting them to playback without problems.

Rocktron ValveSonic Black Plate + - Guitar Tube Preamp - 110V USA Plug
$799      $299
Note: THIS IS A 110V USA PLUG VERSION - however, it has a switch to allow it to work in 220V.  Just the cord included has the USA plug.
ValveSonic Black Plate +
Rocktron has partnered with LA Custom to produce the ValveSonic series of all tube guitar preamps with unprecedented sonic versatility. The ValveSonic Plexi captures the vintage tones of the iconic British "plexi" amplifiers, from the stacked amps and the arena sound of rock to the sound heard during the "Sunset Strip" era of rock, and beyond.

Providing unprecedented sonic versatility with another four-tube monster in the ValveSonic series, the Rocktron ValveSonic Black Plate + model captures the tone of the iconic American combo known for its pristine clean sound and smooth overdrive when cranked up.  We're talking 50's "Hybrid Tweed" to 60's classic "Black Plate" Panel.  But this ValveSonic takes it even further providing the hot-rodded tones of the classic California amps.  All this with a single preamp!

Features:
The Valvesonic Black Plate + features a front panel input jack.  The 1-2 switch affects the input of the tube stage in the preamp.  When switched to "1", the unit provides the more modern "hot-rodded"  type of input used on the classic "California" style amps.  When switched to "2", the unit provides the classic type "Tweed" and "Black Face Panel" type "American" amps.  The Tight switch is used in conjunction with the 1-2 switch; in the up position the input is "tightened up".

Bright Control:
The ValveSonic BRIGHT control is a five position switch that provides four different bright variations to the overall tone found in classic American and "hot-rodded" California amplifiers, with 0 being off and 5 being the brightest.

Gain Control:
The GAIN control is used to determine the amount of GAIN Input level driving the ValveSonic tubes.  Boost can be obtained by flipping the Boost switch to the On position.  The Boost works in conjunction with the "+" switch.  When the Boost switch is On and the "+" switch is in the down position you will obtain an extra gain stage.  When the "+" switch is Up, you obtain an additional gain stage and essentially add an entire tube to the front end, replicating the "hot-rodded" California style amps.

Bass, Middle and Treble controls determine the amount of these various frequencies present in the signal.

EQ:
The EQ 1 & 2 switch replicates the two different style EQs that were used in American amplifiers over the years.  In the Up position, (position 1), the 50's "Tweed" EQ is replicated, providing a more modern midrange emphasis.  In the Down position, (position 2), 60's "Black Plate" Panel EQ is replicated.

Afterburner:
The ValveSonic series features a unique AFTERBURNER switch.  This switch works in conjunction with the DRIVE control, providing yet another gain stage after the EQ section of the preamp.  When the AFTERBURNER is turned On, this switch emulates a post phase inverter master.  When On, you can utilize the Drive control to adjust the amount of Drive present in the AFTERBURNER stage.

High Cut Control:
The ValveSonic also features HIGH CUT control to adjust the High Frequency cut in order to roll off some of the high end "sizzle" when the high gain is used.  The Master control determines the output level of the preamp.

Specifications
Input Impedance: 1M Ohms
Output Impedance: <100 Ohms

When switched to "1", the unit provides the more "modern" type of input used on British style amps. When switched to "2", the unit provides a fatter, "classic" type of input used on vintage British amplifiers. The Tight switch is used in conjunction with the 1-2 switch; in the up position the input is "tightened up" much like more modern British amplifiers, while in the down position the tight function is not active.

The ValveSonic Bright control is a six position switch that provides five different bright variations to the overall tone found in British amplifiers, from vintage to modern, with 0 being off and 5 being the brightest.

The Gain control is used to determine the amount of GAIN Input level driving the ValveSonic tubes. Boost can be obtained by flipping the Boost switch to the On position. The Boost works in conjunction with the "+" switch. When the Boost switch is On and the "+" switch is in the down position you will obtain an extra gain stage that replicates the 80's British type of tone. When the "+" switch is Up, you obtain an additional gain stage and essentially add an entire tube to the front end, replicating the 90's British amps.

Bass, Middle and Treble controls determine the amount of these various frequencies present in the signal.

EQ 1 & 2 swtich replicates the two different style EQs that were used in British amplifiers over the years. In the Up position, (position 1), the "modern" EQ is replicated, providing a more midrange emphasis. In the Down position, (position 2), "vintage" EQ is replicated.

The ValveSonic series has been carefully designed to provide pristine tone, no matter what your style of performance.

Resulting from a partnership between Rocktron and Frank Lamara of LA Custom, the ValveSonic Plexi is an all-tube preamp designed to replicate the tones of British amps from the '60s thorough the '90s. To cover such a wide range of sounds, the 1U rackmount unit relies on a combination of switches to steer the tones toward particular eras of amplifiers. For example, the Tight 1-2 switch affects the input of the first tube stage, providing a modern-type response in the "1" setting, and warmer, vintage-style response in the "2" position. An accompanying switch labeled "Tight" firms up the sound when set to the up position. Following these is a 6-way rotary Bright switch that adjusts the overall sound from darker to brighter. The Gain control's range is dramatically affected by the Boost and Boost + switches: The manual states that with Boost off the overall gain is lower, as per earlier amps, while activating it brings the Gain control's range in line with models from the '80s. The Boost + switch takes things into much higher amounts of distortion, which amps from the '90s and later were designed to deliver. And if even more overdrive is needed, the Afterburner switch activates another gain stage post EQ, which is controlled by the Drive knob.

Tone shaping is accomplished by Bass, Middle, and Treble controls; a High Cut knob, and an EQ 1-2 switch that gives a choice of modern- or vintage-style response curves. Lastly, a Master Volume adjusts the final output of the preamp.

Hooked up to a Mesa/Boogie power amp driving Marshall 4x12 and 4x10 speaker cabinets, the ValveSonic Plexi was easy to dial in for everything from moderate crunch to mammoth sustain. In general, by keeping the Tight switch off and Tight 1-2 in the "2" position, leaving all the Boost and Afterburner functions off, and putting the EQ switch in its "2" setting made it possible to get tones that were in the camp of a mid-'60s tube-rectified Marshall JTM-50. Using the alternate setting on the Tight and EQ switches took things closer to an early '70s JMP 50-watter, which sounded brighter and tighter in comparison. With all of the Plexi's potential, I didn't find it necessary to use anything more than the first Boost position, and with the Gain rolled down to around 10 'o clock, the grind was similar to what you get using a booster pedal on an old Marshall, or what a JCM 800 gives at full tilt. North of that setting, the distortion and sustain increase tremendously, and let's just say that if you're into extreme levels of grind, switching to Boost + will deliver the goods.

Going at it a completely different way, the Afterburner function can be dialed for sounds that are reminiscent of overdriving the output section of a tube amp, and by using a lower Gain setting before the EQ and a higher Drive setting at this post-EQ stage, the grind was delivered with a splintering attack and the kind of touch responsiveness that comes when the amp's power tubes are really sweating and contributing their own harmonics—as opposed to the more compressed thing that happens when they're being fed tons of distortion from the front end. I think this addition to the Plexi's many functions was a smart one.

The ValveSonic Plexi is very capable at delivering Brit-voiced amp tones over an exceeding wide range of gain and suffice to say that if you're into a rack setup, and want the ability to use any power amp that fits the need, the Plexi is definitely worth investigating.

I got one of these.  The switch on the bottom just says "1 - 2".  Which one for operation with Boss?  Thanks.

Post by: gvidelock on February 08, 2020, 02:52:36 PM
The pedal is compatible with Boss products with the switch in either position.

The switch changes the polarity of the potentiometer inside so that in one position you could get a volume increase when you go from heel-to-toe and in the other position you would get a volume decrease when you go here-to-toe.

According to the Nektar Pacer manual
http://support.nektartech.com/support/User%20Guides/Pacer_User_Guide_ENG_Final109.pdf

Nektar (pos. 1) = Korg, M-Audio, Moog (pos. "Std"), Nektar (pos. 1), Roland

Nektar (pos. 2) = M-audio (pos. "Other"), Moog (pos. "Other"), Nektar (pos. 2), Yamaha

Sorry, I should have live tested it as there was no manual in the (demo) box.

I just tried it with my GP-10 and position 1 operated the functions as expected. Position 2 did odd things (like acting as a toggle or a momentary), depending on which function I assigned to it as Ctrl 2.

These D'Angelicos play and sound pretty darned well. Probably no gig bag at this price. Access plate on the back keeps a GK-3 internal kit install pretty simple, as does the hollow body design. Because no f-holes, put the GK-3 volume control close by the bridge where your pinky can turn it.

ES-335 style guitar with GK-3 for under $500? Choose Anderton's for the best price on that internal GK-3 kit (~$110). Keep the case or gig-bag under $90, and that's what you have here. Excellent option.

Rocktron ValveSonic Plexi - Guitar Tube Preamp - 110V USA Plug

Manual

ValveSonic Plexi
Rocktron has partnered with LA Custom to produce the ValveSonic series of all tube guitar preamps with unprecedented sonic versatility. The ValveSonic Plexi captures the vintage tones of the iconic British "plexi" amplifiers, from the stacked amps and the arena sound of rock to the sound heard during the "Sunset Strip" era of rock, and beyond.


Each ValveSonic model features a front panel input jack. The 1-2 switch affects the input of the tube stage in the preamp. When switched to "1", the unit provides the more "modern" type of input used on British style amps. When switched to "2", the unit provides a fatter, "classic" type of input used on vintage British amplifiers. The Tight switch is used in conjunction with the 1-2 switch; in the up position the input is "tightened up" much like more modern British amplifiers, while in the down position the tight function is not active.

The ValveSonic Bright control is a six position switch that provides five different bright variations to the overall tone found in British amplifiers, from vintage to modern, with 0 being off and 5 being the brightest.

The Gain control is used to determine the amount of GAIN Input level driving the ValveSonic tubes. Boost can be obtained by flipping the Boost switch to the On position. The Boost works in conjunction with the "+" switch. When the Boost switch is On and the "+" switch is in the down position you will obtain an extra gain stage that replicates the 80's British type of tone. When the "+" switch is Up, you obtain an additional gain stage and essentially add an entire tube to the front end, replicating the 90's British amps.

Bass, Middle and Treble controls determine the amount of these various frequencies present in the signal.

EQ 1 & 2 swtich replicates the two different style EQs that were used in British amplifiers over the years. In the Up position, (position 1), the "modern" EQ is replicated, providing a more midrange emphasis. In the Down position, (position 2), "vintage" EQ is replicated.

The ValveSonic series features a unique AFTERBURNER switch. This switch works in conjunction with the DRIVE control, providing yet another gain stage after the EQ section of the preamp. When the AFTERBURNER is turned On, this switch emulates a post phase inverter master. When On, you can utilize the Drive control to adjust the amount of Drive present in the AFTERBURNER stage.

The ValveSonic also features HIGH CUT control to adjust the High Frequency cut in order to roll off some of the high end "sizzle" when the high gain is used. The Master control determines the output level of the preamp.

The ValveSonic series has been carefully designed to provide pristine tone, no matter what your style of performance.

This works for my intended purpose   - a compact DSP MFX guitar pedal board mounted FRFR practice amp  - fits on my Gator GigBox2  28" Pedal Board Board   

(https://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mediamusique.com%2Fpic%2Fproduct%2F33291%2F635809469837795695.jpg&hash=7a0c6fd0a003a1a50a54a1f88d12963c8d69c5e5)

But one word of advice - fresh out of the box this VIZIO SB2820N-E0 2 CH Sound Bar will not power on using only the on board Power switch. Instead the 1st time it needs to be be initiated with the Power Switch button on the Wireless Remote Control, then after this 1st power on/off using the Remote, finally the on board built in Power On/Off Button switch will finally work. ( odd)   

A USB stick (* Supports .WAV file format playback only) can also be installed into the USB Host port on the back and play break tune music too

or in my case I'll install the USB Thumb drive with wav demos of my tunes , to remind the drummer at rehearsal what the required groove is for the tune we are working on.

Title: Re: Deal Alert Thread
Post by: mooncaine on July 03, 2020, 03:29:57 PM
I gotta warn you that the BTPA 13-pin cables I bought from them have a problem for guitar players: the plastic sleeve and the metal sleeve slide around loosely(both ends). Sometimes that makes it difficult to unplug the cable because you need both parts to be aligned when you press the unlatch thingy. I've had at least 2 like that, the only 2 I bought.
I am guessing the cables are used for car stereos or some other purpose where the looseness isn't a problem, but for unplugging from a GK socket, these were both annoying. I kept using one till it went bad.

I tried CodeSmart's cables and never saw that prob again, nor, honestly, any other. CodeSmart's cables are a better buy, IMO.

I keep my BTPA cable packed in the ready bag, but honestly have been using a regular Ethernet cable for years because it's still working and so small. Light, easy to see, maybe more vulnerable but not where I (used to) play. The Roland version got accidentally stomped to death by a silver Doc Maarten many years ago.

These look like dead ringers to what Thomann is selling as Harley Benton "G112 Vintage" cabs for similar prices to the sale.  But the old miraculously low shipping prices to the U.S. seem to have gone away, so this is the way to do it.

The Harley Bentons are supposed to be very good plywood cabinets for the price, though not the most durable tolex.

I will hit these the next time they're on sale—my music room is mid remodel so poor timing.

I have a Harley Benton G212 Vintage with V30s, and I did extended tests between the G212 and my Mesa Boogie 4x12 also with V30s with a friend of mine.  Depending on the song being played, we liked either the HB or the MB.  Eventually, after about a month of tests, I sold my Mesa cabinet.  That's how good the HB Vintage cabinets are....in case anyone is wondering about the sound quality.  It's fantastic, and looks just like the 1x12 HB cabinet

Discover Blues tone suck coil cords

They have higher capacitance and net result is smoother tone.

I bought this guitar cord from the amazon link above and received it the next day.  It made a noticeable difference in tone.  It is very heavy duty as well.  I had to turn the volume down on my FM3 because it made the volume louder and also reminded me of upgrading pickups to higher output.  Overall, I am very happy with this purchase and it is still $9.99 at Amazon.

It's compact well built, birch plywood cab, no particle board

Tone is very much like a 15 watt Fender Pro Junior - This Amp will make a good pedal platform (feed an EHX OD Glove will get you great blues/rock at lower volume )

Edit: just played it on Vol cranked up 3/4 up (3:00 o'clock), Tone at midway up (12:00 o'clock) with a Gibson ES-3399 Custom shop, into Input #1 = Great singing Tone and more grind vs the Strat clone I tried earlier at lower volume

Input #2 is lower gain and cleaner tones -common practice on these designs

Eminence speaker is fine, not too shrill , smooth balanced tone

The Reverb is decent, uses a small spring unit. Not bad.

The Tremolo is a Bias type, Intensity comes on a bit strong too early with setting at "3", is like a Fender on "10"
With Intensity on max, it duplicates the old Vox Repeat Percussion tremolo effect and Speed goes from very slow to very fast - its perfect for Link Way "Rumble" and old surf /blues
I'll make a few mods -but it's a decent little amp

A clever DIYer could fit a 12" speaker in this cab, but requires a lot of work as front baffle board is glued to cab

Front grill cloth is on a removable panel (internal screws)
(https://i.postimg.cc/25NLf1gg/20210422-133622.jpg)
Internal PC board labeled "BOSTON ZJG-03-T.

(https://i.postimg.cc/wjQRgqHv/20210422-164351.jpg)
The Output Transformer has 8 ohm and 4 ohm taps.

I'll add 8 ohm, 4 ohm extension speaker jacks -for most options

Internal PC board labeled "BOSTON ZJG-03-T.
"BOSTON" was a brand for YajiaMusic

At 2017 NAMM on last day, I located a"Triumph" China Strat for $30 -has 22 frets and  chunky neck I prefer , junk tuners but it has identical pickups assembly as above, pickups actually sound good,

I was contracted to install a Deaf Eddie Chromacaster rotary switch in a local guitarists Stratocasters (three installs)

Decided to DIY my own with my Triumph Strat clone -added a Treble bleed kit, now this guitar is a funk machine and delivers 16 series/parallel/phase reverse/Neck+bridge , etc  pickup combinations - finally can nail tones I hear on old records-where often the artists guitar broke in 1958, and was incorrectly "fixed " mid tour and the wiring accident became their signature sound

QuoteUpdated 11/7: I spent a bit more time with it past few days and raised to 5 stars from 4 because of its value ($50 vs $300+ in pedals) and setup time savings which it surpasses in compared to my old setup.

Review: I am a gigging musician but lately I dont find much time to write music so when I do I need it to be a quick setup. I use a Tascam 8track harddrive unit without effects. I have old rackmount digitech and DOD effects so they are pain to set up...so I barely use it at home. This is where this unit comes in. I bought it because its small and great for desktop use. I could literally plug straight into my recorder. No mic'ing up as it has cab sim. Just plug in. It has a power supply but can also use a 9 volt. It also has a belt clip but I cant imagine using this live. Its more of a practice unit but a nice addition.

I did plug into a Quilter OD200 with Marshall cab and tested the sound. It was OK but will not replace my JCM2000/Evh5150 setup. Speaking of JCM, if does have amp simulation including the JCM800. I found myself using the Peavey amp because it has a crisp crunchy gain. There is a flavor for everyone but because I only use this to lay down riffs, I cant really comment on how accurate they are. I dont really have the ears for that anyway. Only downside is that you cant use different cabs. Each amp simulation has its own corresponding cab sound from what I can see.

OK so why did I get it if Im only laying riffs down? Ive been wanting to experiment more with delays and modualtion and having the effect on inspires new riffs and allows fellow band members to hear the sound Im going for instead of a dry signal with fizzy distortion. And setting up my rack for ideas takes time and effort thus killing my inspiration.

For recording my riffs I use the built-in speaker cab emulator. I flick a switch and its set. I use the built-in tuner (a nice surprise btw) to tune up, then choose my amp and effect and press record. No more hooking up to rack system. When I get an idea I need quick setup.

Effects are not out of this world but they are good enough and better than i expected dor the price. I feel like the first 20% or so of knob movement does nothing audible but then boom, kicks in. More adjustability than I ever need. The tape delay is pretty cool. Only downside I found was that the friction knob doesnt transition cleanly through the change in effects. The switch-over point tends to cause a strange "artifacting" that crosses over into next effect which is cool if you dig weird sounds but probably not good for realtime adjustment for recording . I dont need to switch effects during recording so Im good. Also, having different effects on one knob saves space and cost presumably.

Some knobs are smooth friction knobs, some are detented and some have push-down click. I found menu selection a little confusing but a quick look at the manual helps.

Build quality is very nice...as long as it stays home. If using this at a gig, unless you play in a church, might not be a good idea. I play in a punk band and there is lots of jumping around and one stomp may destroy it. Having said that, it is built very well for home/studio use. Doesnt feel cheap. Even has a soft high-end feel to the case which interestingly enough, is shaped like a controller.

Price: if comparing this with a big dollar rack mount unit, yes this falls short. But for practicing, laying down ideas etc. It fits the bill. I was already shopping around for pedals which add up to hundreds of dollars and are a pain to set up at home and I came across this. Easy to setup and saved me setup time and hundreds of dollars...for now as I will need a live pedal setup. But for home its excellent.

GK 13 Hex pickup version   $1,532.00
https://www.willcoxguitars.com/product/atlantis-hexfx-guitar/
the non hex wide body at $799 seems to be a good deal when compared to the non hex thin body at a little over $1400.

https://www.willcoxguitars.com/product/atlantis-guitar/

And yes the hex version is more expensive however a person could always just slap a GK pick up on the wide-body and change the strings to a steel core bronze string (steel required for a mag pup).

sweetwater has the ik multimedia space delay for $25:  https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/TRacksSpcDly--ik-multimedia-t-racks-space-delay

i believe it's usually $89. 

https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/ik-multimedia-t-racks-5-space-delay (https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/ik-multimedia-t-racks-5-space-delay)

QuoteDespite the use of IK red rather than Roland green, there's no mistaking that the front panel of the RE‑201 Space Echo was used as the template for this plug‑in's GUI. This emulation is loaded via IK's T‑RackS 5 installer and authorised using their Authorisation Manager. All the usual Mac OS and Windows plug‑in formats are supported.

IK have endeavoured to capture the sound of the original hardware and have, of course, provided all the original controls, but they've also added a few useful features that today's DAW user should appreciate. For example, the spring reverb section can now be switched to stereo, there's a ducker to pull down the level of the delays when things get busy, and there are separate high- and low-pass filters for shaping the input to the delay processor, which is useful to soften the sound. If beaten-up old units are your thing, then the Noise and Tape Age controls replicate wow, flutter and tape hiss to whatever degree you choose. The other features that the hardware couldn't offer are DAW Sync and separate Pan controls for each of the three tape heads. All these extra controls are located in a narrow bar below the main control panel and include a time setting display for all three tape heads. An FX Feed switch, which can be automated, allows the input to the delay section to be turned on and off when you only want echo to be added to specific words or musical phrases.

The reviews are interesting
https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/EBOverdrive--ernie-ball-expression-series-overdrive-pedal/reviews

One aspect is there is  "no true bypass" mode, and the heel down :off mode still results in a "tone suck" attribute if there is no buffer upstream of the pedal  - as having been there/done that at Ernie Ball 1999-2001 , I figure they had a strict price structure that did not include adding a pedal sense relay true bypass circuit  operation. I know these EB Expression Overdrive / & Expression delay pedals were designed by a capable engineer with deep legacy of products (same guy designed electronics for Lindsey Buckingham's Rick Turner Model 1-C-LB guitar, and the EB/MM Game Changer relay pickup coil split / series/parallel switching system.  Most parties involved with these pedals have retired in the past year. I plan on using for parts  - maybe install a Tuner, true bypass and guts of the Mooer Blues Mood ( Boss Blues Driver clone)

I have this one, and it is a really good multimeter.  I compared it to my age old Multimeter and it gives the exact same readings, although this one is even easier.  It determines the rating for you (in case your confused about which to use. 

Depending on what you choose, the connection locations light up to make sure you're connecting to the correct connections.

Great for all kinds of applications, like finding ohm ratings on new (used) cabinets to make sure they have correct readings BEFORE finding out the hard way.

review here
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/mestek-dm90-or-dm91a-multimeter-choice/

QuoteDM90 and DM91A are compact measuring instruments, small by the size, reliable,but they are constructed on already outdated processor of the HY12P65(DTM0660) family. DM90 has 6000 counting, but can be easily updated up to 10000 counting by a firmware method.

RM406B (DM100) is constructed on the processor of new generation (on 2-x core) and has the high speed measured and also several important functions which distinguish it from other models. Attentively read its advantages in the review.

I bought it on the stock on AliExpress for $24, now it can also be ordered within this sum. She fits into your budget.

Only do not confuse with the RM406A (DM100C) model - it looks internally as well as RM406B, but is constructed on the same old DTM0660 processor.

I really don't like buying refurbished computers / phones and stuff... just never know what someone was using them for!

However I am thinking of getting another laptop for personal use sometime and using the one I have now once I clear it and free up some stuff for just jam origin software.... but how would I run standalone jam origin into my helix fx loop? Something I've been thinking of

To integrate Jam Origin MIDI Guitar into Helix, Use a good third party audio interface ( Scarlet 2i4)

or use Helix as the Audio interface  - tied to a Computer via USB
( but Helix is not the lowest latency USB Audio interface,
and look out for Ground loop noise, PC Power supply noise, etc.   

But fastest real time Audio I/O will be in direct correlation to the PC Performance (CPU/RAM/ SSD Drive) and Audio interface latency ( RME, Presonus Quantum, etc)

The Collections are not part of AmpliTube $299, for example.
OK, perhaps I'm not so good in English, I must say sorry in advance if I have not enough well understood.
You can get free any product in that list that has the same or lower price of the product you paid.
Furthermore, I didn't know there was another promotion, sort of "If you buy a software that costs more than X, then you can buy other products with a discounted price".
Infact I bought Amplitube 5 upgrade and could get Modo Drums FULL (not the scaled down SE version) because of this second promotion. So as Sampletank full, Hammond, mixbox and so on, all 15 free. Seems unusual but it has been so.

I have Amplitube 4.. how can I upgrade (and what would the price be) to 5 and get this deal?  Or do I just have to pay the $199 for A5?  Their whole structure has always been confusing for me.  Plus I have 55 Jam Points.

You are in the same state as I was. It took a while to understand all.
Just go in your user area and you will see the same list with the upgraded prices, f.e. $199 for AT5.
And yes, you can use Jam points  :)

Thank you!  That will be a heck of a deal.. I'll be doing it too.

PA Suhr PT100

The ultimate recreation of the high end multi-channel Suhr tube amp with 3 distinct modes and an incredible wide array of tones.

Use discount code PT100-2999 for $29.99.

It has a couple nice features - you can disable the preamp and/or power amp and it has a power soak. It makes a nice back end by disabling the preamp if you want to record or use a vg-99 in the box. I'll use it with an old MP-1 the same way as well. Unfortunately it doesn't look like you can load your own IRs.

IK Multimedia 25th Anniversary Group Buy - up to 25 X 1

If you're thinking about buying an IK Multimedia software product, then do this before the end of September and get many other software products for free.

At the moment, 16 products for the price of 1


https://www.ikmultimedia.com/25gb/


List of products here:
https://www.ikmultimedia.com/25gb/#products

This just got extended through October when they were able to get over 20,000 buy ins by today.  20 for 1 (Pardon 21 for 1 and growing) now and hopefully it will go to 25,000

I bought into it with Amplitube 5 and I am very impressed with it.

Excuse my ignorance but I assume these are for PC and not iOS, and that you have the choice to purchase any one of the qualifying products, but as for the subsequent free products, you have no choice, i.e. it's a fixed free list that may get bigger if there are more participants, but it's still a fixed list?

Only thing I know is it includes everything on the page that was linked to above.. that I also quoted in my last reply.  Not sure about the IOS stuff but whatever you purchase you are entitled to receive for free 20 more products at the same or lesser value.  There is a lot of stuff there that will not change, just the quantity that we are allowed to receive for free depending on how many people buy in.

Just a tip.  Buy their gear credits at a reduced rate to get an even bigger discount and you can also use JamPoints if you have any.

Check out all the qualifying iRig and UNO products below. We've also added new software like the virtual X-GEAR pedals to choose among your FREE titles. Keep spreading the word.

I'd advise putting a short extension lead on that, as it stands it's a chunky lever just waiting to wreck the socket, or even the PCB in the device you plug it into...

The only thing I've seen lower for regularly available new merchandise is importing the built-in kit from Anderton's.  And I haven't gone through that so I can't speak to hidden costs. 

So "not bad price" looks like an understatement.

S-Mode Windows, small issues, still a decent value
2 weeks ago
WARNING: Comes with S-mode Windows 11. Out of the box, you can't install basically any programs. This can be disabled through the Windows store, but that requires an MS account and internet access. BUT the license lets you downgrade to Windows 10 at time of writing. Make USB-C recovery media before you buy if that's your plan. PROS: Very lightweight, two USB-C ports, decent battery life (5-10h depending on use). Detachable keyboard uses bluetooth, so you can set up the tablet to play media on a tv, then use the keyboard/mousepad as a remote. 8GB ram is HUGE difference vs 4, which would bottleneck even N5030. Screen is bright, keyboard closes nicely over lid while attached... oh and night-owls and migraineurs... the screen can dim to 1%! This is huge for me and helps with battery life when used. Keyboard isn't too bendy, and while cramped, makes good use of the space available on such a small device. CONS: As stated, Windows 11 S-mode comes installed, which the description doesn't note, and downgrading to 10 or escaping S-mode is a slight hassle. Funny USB behavior--tablet DISCHARGING to power bank when hooked up to 18 and 25w PD banks... some settings in bios for this but it all may be due to Win10 downgrade. Funny screen behavior, too; signal resolution is 1200x1900--portrait, and apparently hardwired as such. Some old programs (ok, Morrowind) boot at a 270 degree rotation because of the tablet-by-default hardware. But hopefully this isn't gonna be a dedicated gaming rig for anyone. Speakers are quiet, but there is a headphone/mic port and bluetooth, so you have options. Older processor means some things chug along, and it's not as power efficient as newer (see: more expensive) stuff. So basically, if you want a little portable Windows rig and don't mind Windows 11, or the trouble to downgrade, go for it. What little issues I've found are more than excusable at the price this goes on sale for. I bought it for a little over 3 and I'm happy with it. More than sufficient for web browsing, watching movies (with external audio), office/school work, provided you don't need a bigger screen or more comfortable keyboard. And it's not a chromebook! For a teeny Windows tablet with KB, it's worth it!

Their is a rumor that with the recent activities of Avid selling off the M-Audio division to Numark / Alesis - that future support may soon be dropped for this model, but at $167 i could not resist.
 


10 years later, M-Audio is out of the Synth business , but I still have the Venom

Discovered the original M-Audio Design Engineer,  Taiho Yamada has a blog with tips & tricks , and links.
