I remember this one being born - such a beautiful top! Love it.

First up - have you read the opening posts. You need to get your head around how this stuff works first. Happy to help, but your question at the moment is not at all what you want to be doing as your EQing to hear yourself better is a) going to make your bass not sound how it should to the audience b) is effectively just turning up the volume and defeating the point of what your ear plugs are meant to be doing! If you are not wanting to plug into anything and have a standalone solution (e.g. volume controllable ear plugs), I refer you to this section in the opening post - If you haven't got a desk or aux available to you, you can try using the above with a field recorder (e.g. a Zoom recorder - others are available). See section 3.4. -
Talkback mic/MD mic/God mic Switch is usually a A B switch to 2 channels on the desk, (1 to front of house, 2nd to aux feeds only) or a MIDI switch which effectively kills foh but being pre fader allows the signal to still pass to the auxes. 2 channels is nice as it allows you to have 2 different levels for when the MD is singing vs louder for instruction.

Quick Q, did you read the opening posts? There’s some key concepts you seem to be missing.

Jeesh. Arguing over a 5er on big ticket items.

Interesting first post! Welcome by the way.
-
Top job!

Those knobs are very cool! - but agreed, not for this bass.

Hopefully you'll get a better result next time around the loop. re: open jaw would suggest a bite block - make sure you have a bite block though - don't sit there just holding your mouth open. Oh... and expect droooooool.

It was more a behave directed to them - not yourself. To be honest, I had no end of bad experience, particularly around their Live system - and whilst the fit was always OK, when I switched to acrylic, I realised that the whole sales pitch of silicon and it's advantages was a bit of a myth (oh and by the way silicon shrinks over time). I remember have my first triple monitors (at the time, the top of the range) from them and thinking - is this what people rave over? Very disappointing - no headroom and very farty with a harsh top end. Of course, others peoples opinions may vary - and this was with their old drivers. Funnily enough, when I got my impressions done at Banbury, I asked them directly about bite blocks - "oh, we don't bother with them" - I still sat there with two fingers in my mouth, to imitate a one inch bite block as best as I could - and also not engaging in any conversation with the person taking the impression despite them speaking - as it pretty clear that moving whilst having an ear impression isn't going to work out well.
-
Another thing to try, is when inserting the inear, pull back quite hard on your earlobe so it opens up the ear canal a bit, then twist in the in ear... and hope for a tighter fit!

ACS haven't heard of bite blocks? Behave! Anybody in the IEM business - and certainly folk who have been in it as long as ACS have certainly will. Their social media even shows the use of one during the taking of impressions. @SteveK - where are you based?

What is that control plate covering up?

100% use a 1 inch bite block every time… well… the only application where you don’t need a bite block is if you are an audiophile type who sits still to listen to music. Those who complain of a rubbish seal generally have not used a bite block. I remember cringeing at the trade shows when I was working with the CIEM company - and we would see other stalls taking impressions without a bite block or having full blown two way conversations as the impressions were being taken. One way ticket to a pants fit.

Surely it's got to be Donna Lee?

Love Me Do - The Beatles In my early days, I just worked through The Beatles complete scores book, pretty much in line with albums.

Oh man 😵 The world is a bit darker without Dr of the bass. Rest in peace sir.

At least Im not alone!

But why?

I can understand that.

`you run in mono?

The digital aspect of the Mipro will have even the best analogue compander based IEM system beat. The EW is likely to have a further range and due to the lower frequency rf - better for passing through walls and stuff. If you are worried about drop outs and interference, the 5.8 system is going to be way more stable than a 2.4 system. As I say, if you have line of site and can keep the units close to the stage, right now, I’d go MiPro.

I see Thomann have started stocking it now (£469) - https://www.thomann.co.uk/mipro_mi_58rt_58_ghz.htm I believe there's no additional costs on the published figure...? (I haven't bought from Thomann in years)
