    Mono or Stereo Set-up

    Our house is Mono but I run stereo IEM. I have been running everything in mono for the past few years monitoring off a single wedge. I recently added the IEM to my rig, set it up stereo and I like it so much better! I found running to amps live was too much of a hassle especially running...

    Mono or Stereo Set-up

    As far as listing it's great! Nothing like being enveloped in a sound experience. I will say setting up some effects to be extreme width doesn't always work out that great. As to setting up it's pretty basic I run stereo effects after the cab block make sure they are set up to run stereo!

    Fender Tone Master FR-10 vs. Redsound MF.10 Mini Review

    If I had to guess and that's what this is, it's probably the quality of the components and the design Redsound is using. I don't recall anyone having to rebuild the EQ section of a Redsound unit.

    Aside from setting up the effects the right way, cab separation makes the biggest difference, not sure what else you are looking for in a an answer though.

    Call me lazy...returned to FW 6

    I didn't really have any issues. I did add op 3 to run my IEM and that did push 8 of my presets over the top so I had to lose an effect in those presets that I wasn't really using that much anyway so I was ok with it. Switching most of my AC TB amps to the AC 30 Brilliant was worth it alone!

    Is it possible to have stereo stage and not create issues for FOH

    Unless FOH is a mono mix I would just make sure the FOH and stage are the same with respect to L and R and you shouldn't have any issues. Also, if the cab separation on stage is too wide the effect you are going for will be lost. I'm guessing one cab on either side of the drummer? If your FOH...

    Steve Morse, what you can’t do with amp modelers. What do you think?

    I say let people play what they want, if you dont like it don't play it! That's the whole idea is to have that choice. I also think the differences in the interactions of a pre/power amp, and transformer / speaker vers running a full range setup is where the two camps differ.
