I’m looking at buying a new desk, I currently use the xr18 for PA work mixing bands most weeks. I’m happy with the xr18 but we could do with a second desk so I’m looking at the x32. I’d appreciate any thoughts about the compact and producer models? Looks like a smaller screen and no scribble strips on the channels is the difference but i can live with that. Anything else I’m missing?

I’ve had it done before but the firm I used have since stopped making cabs. Any of the custom amp or cab makers should be fine though or look up Chris that makes headshells for people using the ampmaker kits. Zilla are a popular choice but not the cheapest iirc. I can’t see an issue with getting the look you want if the Tolex in that colour is available.

I dep for a band that have just started doing half the set in Eb. Don’t ask me why they don’t drop them all - I asked and received a confused look. I just take two basses and swap (as do the guitarists). As long as you aren’t using thin string that will get a bit flappy it’s fine.
