Re: NMXFD Line 6 M13

After a bit of experimentation, it seems that if you don't have anything selected in a given column when you select the looper, it remembers which you used last in that column and selects that.

Re: NMXFD Line 6 M13

I'll try to work that out tomorrow; the manual says "Any effects you have on when entering Looper mode will remain in your signal path."

NMXFD Line 6 M13

I picked up an as-new M13 yesterday and although I feel it could have done with a third expression pedal input, one thing particularly impressed me; when you go into the looper, the top row of effects remains active/selectable. I'm pretty sure the M9 doesn't do that. The GR-55 doesn't do that.

Andy Powell signature Flying V?

Prepping guitars for the 1st show of this USA tour. Breaking out my original ‘67 V for this one. Stay tuned for some interesting news on Flying Vs all fans of Real Guitars! Not that I could justify buying one but a Flying V with factory fitted Vibrola would be interesting to me. http://www.youtube....

Good reviews; it must be satisfying.

Re: EL34s - your experience?

Just had the other old JJ EL34 in the JTM60 go unacceptably noisy and replaced it with a NOS JJ EL34L. The Svetlana continues to be quiet.

Re: Zoom 9000

TBH, more than necessary wattage should not be an issue - less would be. The Zoom 9000 manual says the recommended PSU is 7.5v at 200 mA (1.5 VA) though the PSUs I get when I Google Zoom 9000 PSU are 15 VA (7.5 V AC at 2000 mA). If the new PSU doesn't help, it could be that the smoothing caps in the...

Re: NMFXD Line 6 Floor Pod Plus

I got through cleaning it up and gave it a more thorough test. The wah switch was a bit glitchy,so I thought I'd better dive under the covers and see what gives. I couldn't tell until I got the base off, but only these 14 screws need to be removed from the total of 24 on the base. An electric screwd...

NMFXD Line 6 Floor Pod Plus

Just picked up a Line 6 Floor Pod Plus with PSU, sold as "for spares/repair, lights up but no audio output". Got it home, it's just like the man said. Hmm. Check PSU. 12v DC. Hang on, didn't Line 6 use to use a lot of AC? Check the bottom of the device - yep, needs 9v AC because it generat...

Re: Wireless guitar - Lekato Airbridge

Even on the basis of one practice I find it freeing not to be dragging the cable around. Also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJQ6B5FIZ3M OK, so it made for a fantastic show but it just shows even the pros can have trouble with cables. The pain is going to be making sure both transmitter and receive...

Re: Wireless guitar - Lekato Airbridge

It arrived two days early. Pics: box.jpg box_open.jpg parts.jpg rx_tx.jpg So, you can use it in stereo or mono mode. For example, I plugged the transmitter without any adapter into my laptop's 3.5 mm headphone jack and the receiver with the 6.35 mm stereo adapter into the "dub out" jack on...

Re: Wireless guitar

Well, I have a keyboard with stereo out and I believe my old Line 6 Flextone twin combo has a stereo effect return so I should be able to check that, though probably for an outdoor gig the weekend after next I should use a TRS-to-twin-TS adapter into the bassist's PA.
