With its ability to tackle guitar, bass, and any other electric instrument with the same degree of assurance, the Xvive A58 makes the prospect of going wireless incredibly appealing. The A58 spans the full 20Hz-20kHz frequency range, and at less than 5ms of latency, you’ll never need to worry about your wireless guitar system stealing your mojo. Moreover, since it operates in the 5.8GHz frequency band, you won't experience interference from other nearby wireless devices. The A58 includes six switchable channels, enabling you to use six systems simultaneously, and its auto-scan feature makes setup fast and easy. Showcasing a massive 100-foot operating range and five hours of battery life, the Xvive A58 will render your cables obsolete.

You are an inspiration, Derryl. I bet your folks are amazing too.
You are so good. Keep playing 🎉
Thank you so much!!
QUITE POSSIBLY MY ALL TIME FAVORITE GUITARIST..MR.DERRYL GABEL....SINCE 1992...MAY OF 1992 TO BE EXACT....THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING THIS VIDEO...
Thanks Derryl! Informative - I will have to see if I notice the same minor issues with an older Xvive model.
I have to ask. What was the incentive to make primarily Allan Holdsworth covers, I mean, other than they are great and he was.
Good question! For one, anytime I learn a Holdsworth tune or solo, it's like taking a guitar and music lesson from him. Plus, many years ago, I kept hearing people say, no one can play Holdsworth solos. They are impossible etc... Funnels was my first attempt at playing one of his solos in it's entirety, at tempo. In the past, I would transcribe his stuff but never work up the entire solo to tempo. Once I did that one, it gave me the confidence to do another and another. Besides the learning aspect, it was good for my technique in the sense of having to practice the solo enough times to play it at tempo because if I'm not working on a project, I tend to not play as much and I get rusty. It was also very good for marketing and getting more eyeballs and ears on my videos and ultimately, people buying my courses and albums etc... Another thing I found interesting is some folks telling me "man, I didn't know you were that good!" It's like covering a Holdsworth solo gave me more credibility and validity in their eyes.
@derrylgabel I think it's awesome that your solo work is still extremely unique from Allan's stuff. Allan only wanted everyone to find their voice, but your dedication and attention to detail on his work is amazing. Glad we can be lifted your content in any way Derryl
@@derrylgabel I like that. I feel like I can admire and prefer someone's playing, Like Holdsworth, or Michael Hedges, Al Di Meola, or Jimi Hendrix.
But I don't have to deify them and make them to be something that I could never play the techniques they played or get a sound quality like, because they were Gods of guitar.
Like ten years ago, I made a comment on a video of Jimi playing Johnny B Goode at Berkeley. And that, that very recording, when I heard it in the eighties, when I was a teenager was a huge influence on me. And that it still sounds great, though I can play like that now. I said that then, and I just found out the last year, I was still getting angry replies how wrong I was to say I could play like Jimi, not only from people that never heard me even play, but that no one could play like Jimi.
@@derrylgabel been watching you for many years and you've not only managed to capture Alan's notes but also the spirit of his music which makes you an even more compelling musician i really appreciate what you do
I wish I could get some equipment like that for a better sound. I would like to get a better interface, that wil take more than one input at a time.
I have a $35 interface I got several years ago.
If I could get one of those Focusrite Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen USB Audio Interfaces, I would be good.
My audio interface is an old M-Audio Profire 2626. It get's the job done and for what I do, it's fine.
Yeah, it's necessarily buffered so brighter than a longish cable. Is the battery replaceable? My biggest complaint with wireless stuff recently has been that. If the battery is replaceable excellent. Do you know if you are actually getting 5ms, lower, or higher? Wondering what I can expect into other digital gear/interfaces. Cheers brother, D
Good questions. I don't know if you can replace the battery. I've had the U2 system for several years and it's still going strong but I know eventually the battery will no longer hold a charge.
FWIW, I’ve had frequent audio glitching/momentary dropout issues with the original Xvive units when using them at home. Might be RF interference from Wi-Fi. So, I always end up going back to cables. Has anybody else experienced this and found a solution?
Hi Luke, I suppose the A58 would work better because of its frequency range. I haven't experienced any glitches or drop outs.
