Dibbs!
Bring a crane. This thing is f*cking heavy.
I’ve only gotten to the stage where I can plug headphones in.
Still very impressive.
I was “this close” to pulling the trigger on some bigger better studio monitors yesterday, but I decided to try out my current set of M-Audios.
Something’s up with my interface or I just don’t know what I’m doing.
I was also this close to pulling the trigger on the Revv 2x12 cab. I talked myself out of it. For now.
I’ve settled on a pair of Headrush FRFRs, but I haven’t ordered them yet.

Do you have an interface for recording on a computer? Possible to hook it up to that?
I do. An iRig Pro Duo.
I tried to use it stand-alone and just use the Direct monitor function to output it from the headphone jack to my monitors. I didn’t really spect it to work, but I had everything here. So, what the hell.
The interface doesn’t seem to even power up. I have an ac adapter for it.
It worked fine in the past when connected via USB to my computer.
Even if I get that going, the only output that I can accommodate is headphones, even with the interface.
The iRig has 1/4” outs as well, but I don’t have cables handy that will then be able to go to say, the RCA inputs on my M-Audio monitors.
I’ve ordered cables to give that a go.
I’m going to re-jig everything today and get it on my desk so I can try the interface right into the computer.
That raises a question. I’ll admit up front that I haven’t done a lot of digging yet.
I can’t seem to select a different audio device for output in Studio One or Reaper.
It seems that whatever I choose as the input device is the only option allowed for output.
That seems ‘not right’ to me.
As much of a tech head that I am, I have never wrapped my head around audio stuff beyond basic hookups.
I’m going to learn a lot or I’m going to curse a lot. Maybe both.
I ended up running headphone out of the two-notes module right into the monitors.
It was enough to make some noise and have some fun, but I can tell it can be much better.
The two-notes cabsim feature is nuts. Endless tweaking. So much fun. I fear it will be my downfall. LOL.

I’m with you there. I’ve spent 20+ as a systems engineer and never been able to get a computer recording rig up and running.

I think I’d have to get the 212.

We’ll, yea. Lol
Yeah, that’s what’s causing all of the consternation.
If I go with FRFR, I get a few 4x12s, some 2x12s, some 1x12s, and, and, and… endless options.
I even tried out the REVV cabsims and they’re great, but I’d have a hard time picking just one.
I’m hoping the Headrush speakers will be enough of a “fill the room” experience.
I keep thinking about the guys that do the Wednesday night live streams and they do it all with in-ear monitors.
Amp to interface to IEMs. Nothing else for in the room sounds. The cabs behind them are empty.
….and I just talked myself out of a speaker cab. LOL!

Unpacking this thing was a lot of fun.
They included some swag as well. I had asked to buy some, but I think they just threw some in. YMMV
A toque, the accessories kit, and a couple of t-shirts.
The accessories box includes the foot switch that is pretty damned capable. Almost every switch allows for multiple stomps for different settings.
and a pack of gummies.
A pick Tim and a cleaning cloth.
There was a sticker and some cards with setup tips to get some initial tones for each channel.
A folder
With the QA records and Certificate of Authenticity
It came with a cover too.

The back
The foot switch
and the logo changes colour along with the chosen channel.

One of these days I’ll have to try one of those cab sim things. I can’t wrap my head around how you can make a single speaker sound like a 4x12 cab. I can see it from a recording perspective, but I can’t see how sitting in front of a single speaker can sound like sitting in front of a 4x12. I definitely can’t feel like standing in front of a 4x12
