X AIR XR12 : Sorry I didn't take the plunge before

4 years ago

Busy solo singer/guitarist, I used a powered desk and effects rack up to now, this unit replaced the effects rack and the desk. Paired with an LD

G2 system, perfect for most small venues. Less weight to drag around, less space taken up in the van and on stage. Quicker set up time too, there are no real downsides to this. The effects are very usable although as an audio nerd I would have put more than 4 effects at a time (minor problem). As per online chatter I used an external travel router (€49) to avoid drop outs, no problems yet. Running on and old jacked Amazon Fire 7" with no issues if you don't mind the small screen.

In the process of acquiring a pair of FBT Ventis 112a's for larger venues.

Sockets all seem solid, unit itself is chunky and feels solid too. I would highly recommend moving to one of these if like me you value weight, space , and set up time.
