  1. Hi. If you're heading north for a gig etc I'm happy to meet you somewhere just south of Birmingham. Cheers.
  2. Recently bought a Jazz bass from Dunc. Great comms, item as described, painless purchase! Thanks Dunc.
  3. Bought a smashing set of Fender Flats from Ead. Great price and comms right to the door. Thanks.
  4. Hello! Where are you and is it pick up only or post? Cheers
  5. I use an SI expression and an SI 16 and the remote iPad control is a major asset. The SI is very intuitive and can be accessed by any tablet or laptop so it's pretty useful. A couple of things to note on the SI are amuts a little noisy if you crank the pre amps so you need to set the input gains carefully. Unity gain on the master L&R pits is 10 past 12 and again, the mixer can get a but hissy if you turn these up past that. Having said that,the gigs I've done on it the hiss was simply not a problem compared to the ambient noise in the pubs etc. It has a feedback suppressor that is very handy for pub use and if you set the headphones output to aux5/6 you can get 6 mono monitor sends out of it, on top of your 2 reverbs and delay sends. There has been some moaning about the wifi hotspot dropping out now and then but that's easily solved by using an external router via Ethernet. I use a TP/Link Nano which can be powered from one of the mixers usb ports. The hdmi port does nothing yet but the view is that they will enable it in the future for use with a usb mouse and flat screen. Firmware updates are underway to improve the fx and some muting and routing options. My opinion? Go for it, it's very affordable.
  6. Hi Gui, the NL2 and NL4 Speakons are interchangeable and will mate correctly, the only difference is the NL4s can carry a four way cable often used in a bi-amp setup where two separate amps power two speakers via one 4 way cable.The second speaker is usually wired via a link socket on the cab, similar to the old peavey Hysis sub speakers. The NL2s only carry a 2 way cable. Wired to the 1+ and 2+ connectors. It's possible one end of your Speakons is an NL4 and is wired incorrectly with 1+ or 2+ being wired to the 1- or 2- connectors inside the plug. I have some wired on purpose this way for a two way system link, and have to clearly mark them from the normally wired ones. The easy option is just to check whether the connector says NL2 or NL4, or buy a new cable that uses NL2s only so no confusion. Hope you get sorted. MM
