I have been wondering if the router might be on the way out, but hard wiring or using the internal router in a pinch is definitely the way to go. Thank you all. Any recommendations for an affordable router to replace the old one?

Thank you!

Good idea!

Hi. I'm having the weirdest issues with my X Air. I use an external router (always have) and I have the official app, and the Mixing Station app installed on android phones, on android tablets and on a laptop. I never know which of these devices (if any) will actually find and connect to the desk. Last week an ancient Hudl I keep as back up connected first time, this week it just stuck on 'searching' but the laptop connected so it was ok. None of the other phones or tablets found the desk this week. No rhyme or reason, I never know which device will work, if any. Any ideas?

I'm happy with all my rigs 🙂

Slot it in and tighten two grub screws. I keep the Allen key attached to the side of the board. It's about the same as setting up a mic stand - quicker than some. I find it easier to put the board on a table (or on a cab) to get at the bracket without lying in the floor!

Road tested last night. Only drawback I could find? Accessing the underside of the board to fix a wiring problem.

I used this and it's very happy with a 10" tablet. The main advantage is no legs sticking out forcing my pedal board away and requiring a long boom which is more vulnerable to audience interference. Fortunately I never seem to play in front of a crowd sufficiently enthusiastic to knock anything over.

The angle is perfect - 90° off the top of the pedal board and the rake of the board sends it a good foot out from the pedals

My latest bit of Heath Robinsoning....

Had a little run of gigs this week and took the B6 for them all. The plan being to use it in the hotel room for a bit of headphone noodling. Of course I was way too busy with traditional rock star activities to do that, but on stage it performed admirably. The sounds really are first class. I use it in pedal board mode and I'm finding out more about adjusting effects on the fly, switching between boards and so on. It's wonderfully light to carry, way smaller than my traditional boards but not so cramped I can't hit the right switch at the right time, and that tuner! It's so stable, so big, so visible - a joy to use.

Sounds like we have a very similar relationship with these effects

I have bought so many over the years and the EBS is the best. In a live mix it does the sound I hear in my head when I think envelope filter

First time out with a new band. Fair to say we were under rehearsed having suffered line up changes in the run up to the gig, but we got away with it. The wheels fell off a couple of times but we muddled through, the punters loved it and we got paid.

We played a surreal event at a golf club last night. German pop 'music', picnic benches indoors, bangers and mash, some people in fancy dress, oh, and us in a big empty room while the punters sat in an adjacent room watching rugby.

Looks to me as if they've incorporated everything I could ask for in terms of functionality. My only issue with multi effects (except for Zoom) is poor octave up sound and no bass synths. However I can testify everything else about Hotone Stomp is superb

GAS leak detected 😧

We should organise a mini bass bash dedicated to multi effects.

Saw Larkin Poe in Bristol last night. First gig on the British leg of their never ending world tour. An utterly exceptional band this. Only gig I've ever been to and not focused wholly upon the bass player. The guitar playing, the guitar sounds, and the vocal harmonies were absolutely top drawer, and the lead singer has quite simply the best voice I've ever been in a room with. A spell binding gig.

I bought a bass from Kate at the recent Somerset Bash. She is a great person to do business with - reliable, friendly and entirely to be trusted. I heartily recommend this most excellent Basschatter.

I wish I'd taken mine to the bass bash, there was a B2 Four there. We could've done a shootout.

Well maybe who knows? All I know is there are few better envelope filter, distortion, synth and preamp sounds on the market right now

Didn't have time to build a pedal board for last night's gig so I bunged four effects together on a patch on my B6 and legged it out of the house. Every time I have gigged this pedal the sounds from it have been superb. Yesterday was no exception. I believe it's the most underrated of all the multi effects. Underrated by me of course. Except now it isn't because I'm rating it. Highly.
