The individual tracks were recorded at a gig with a Presonus StudioLive mixer. I fed them from Pro Tools into my UI16, and then recorded the output from the UI16 back into Pro Tools.

Thanks Greggie!

Either. With powered speakers you go from the UI directly to the wedge. With passive speakers you go from the UI to the power amp running the wedge.

@@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer Thanks

I set the Aux masters on the UI to unity gain. I adjust the volume on the wedge to suit the performer. On my cheap Alto wedges, that's usually about half way on the knob on the back of the wedge. It would vary depending on the wedge.

Hope you like it, Thanks for watching.

Hi! I have the Orange CR60, and I'm thinking the same thing , though I love the tones on my Orange I think it might be a nice upgrade, did you get the TM?

That would do it, but I don't think that was the case. There were certainly no aux masters assigned to DCAs in the show I called up. We had another tech look at it as well. I think most likely it was the beer bath it took on the previous gig.

@@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer do the aux outputs work now?

@@dankurydotcom Neither we, nor the repair tech we went to could get them to work. We sold it it and bought a new one. This one lives in a road case, and is kept away from wayward beer bottles. I don't know if it ever worked again. It was an "as is" sale with full disclosure.

@@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer thanks for getting back :)

Thanks! Often paper is easier to deal with than tables, tablet holders, power supplies, etc.

Thanks! In the room the most noticeable thing was that the DR could get louder than the TM, even at the 100w setting on the TM. Tube watts are somehow different. The TM is also more compressed, which is good or bad depending on your taste. I did prefer the nice digital reverb on the TM over the spring reverb in my DR, again a personal taste thing.

@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer that's useful information. I generally just grab a Pro Junior IV for gigs (Chicago Blues in the main), and seldom get it above 4 or 5 on the volume, so use a Nobels ODR-1 to give a little hair when the guitar vol is full. I'd been thinking about a Princeton as likely similar vol to the Pro Junior, but the TM DR with the attenuator is very interesting for my needs... Given the choice, would you go... Princeton Reverb Deluxe Reverb with attenuator Or TM DR? Guessing very little difference in feel when playing, be interested to know which you would purchase.

@@joncurle5407 At my age (73) I'd be using the TM Deluxe. I've been running sound for a band where the guitarist uses a TM Twin. He's running it on the 12w setting and it sounds as good as the vintage Deluxe he used before. At least it does out front. I most likely would go for the blond TM Deluxe. My last guitar gigs were back in 2021 and I used a 65Amps London Pro head for the rock band, and a Dr. Z Carmen Ghia head for the country gig. I used a small 1x12 cab with both. If I were carrying stuff every weekend, it likely would be the TM Deluxe. That entire amp likely weighs less than the Carmen Ghia head alone. I know that Uncle Larry says, "Good tone is heavy and hard to carry." but at my age some compromises are necessary.

@@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer thanks, I really appreciate your thoughts

If you can't connect without the hotspot enabled, your network settings aren't correct. Check your IP addresses on the UI, router, and tablet.

Most likely the network settings aren't correct. Check the IP addresses on the UI, router, and tablet.

@@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer thanks. I'm going to power cycle to try to get the HDMI out to work whenever I get off work today. And I got the wireless to work on my laptop and phone and will try the lan again. If I get the HDMI to work I'll be happy enough.

@@mandelharvey3429 As far as I know, the HDMI output on the 12 and 16 were never activated, only on the 24. It is strictly for decoration. I could be wrong as I've never tried it. Does anybody out there know?

I am. Hope you are as well. Thanks

The extra channels are needed. I've been using a Mackie DL32S lately which give me 32 channels.

Yep. DL32S

In ears make it way easier for me. No wedge feedback to worry about and the guys do their own mix.

@@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer Exactly!

AH! You are correct. I forget the name of the Vox thingy.

The guitarist in the band I work for uses a TM Twin. Now that he is using in-ears, he sets it for 12w. That super helps the out front mix, and it sounds excellent.

Thanks for watching.

I'll have to have a look. I suspect it is the pick guard, but I'm not sure.

Definitely more compressed than the DR.

just on the individual channels.

Thanks. I am going considering adding some and will follow your lead.

I've used both on stage without tuning issues. I do prefer the smoother modern machines on the PRS.

@@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer I've played an Epiphone Les Paul for years as a rhythm guitarist without issue. The minutes i became a lead player doing loads of bluesy bends it became a huge problem. Eventually switched to the Silver Sky.

Thanks for watching.

We never did figure it out. Sold the unit and bought a new one.

I took a brief look at this PM1. This is a passive unit expecting a stereo output from a headphone amp. The Aux outs on the UI are line level, not amplified. I'm surprised you hear anything at all. What you need to come directly out of the UI Auxes is the Behringer P1 or P2. The P1 will let you run stereo or mono with regular xlr cables. Also, if you want stereo in your phones, you will have to link two Auxes together in the UI for that. The P2 will run mono with a regular xlr, but you would need a special cable to run stereo. Check them out on the Behringer website. Hope this helps.

@@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer thank you for the reply

Thanks! Good suggestion on a setting gains video.

Mine is set around 1PM or so. Thanks.

Thanks Chuck!

The Presonus mixers are the only ones I've seen that allow the auxes to be completely locked down. My experience with those is very limited, though.

Sorry to hear that. Everyone seems much happier with the Japanese Fenders.

You would know, being that master at making budget gear sound great.

Ha! I have an almost white DIY Strat.

Thanks!

I got it in a trade. I now have two ASAT Specials.

Thanks!

Good tone is heavy and hard to carry, according to Uncle Larry. He's the master.

So true. I got it in a trade.

@@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer It looks like a G&L? How does it sound?

@@chucksaeger7500 It's my 2nd ASAT. Here's a vid with it. th-cam.com/video/GzGhBvYo1fM/w-d-xo.html

It does. I got it in a trade.

I got it in a trade, instead.

They are. This unit is no longer a priority. I would be surprised if there are any more updates for the UI12/16.

Using an external router has solved all my connection issues.

I've had no problems with either, however, I much prefer the tuning machines on the PRS over the vintage style on the Jr.

I decided to keep them both.

Agreed

Thanks! I hope it works out well for you.
