  1. Noise in the signal varies with the amount of gain in the preset. The higher the gain in the preset the more noise you will hear. This is normal for all electronics.
  2. Are these operating in the same school as the v35's you posted in another thread? Dos it matter whether or not you are physically handling the transmitter? Does the hum stay the same regardless of what channel you use?
  3. Good news. Hopefully your post will help others that might experience this problem.
  4. They are glued together and are not intended for a user to disassemble.
  5. The table shows which Line 6 RF1 channels will have the minimum interaction when the listed wi-fi channel is in use. So the chart lists L6 channels 1 & 12 will least interfere with wi-fi channel 1. How well this works depends on the relative distances between units and the quality of the wi-fi's receiver to reject out of band signals.
  6. Yes I guess this qualifies as a dilemma. There are only so many cars you can drive down the freeway at the same time.you may think you are operating in fairly calm environments, but there really aren't many left. And of course it's invisable so you can't see it. So RF1 was developed specifically to operate in heavy RF environments filled with Wi-Fi and we almost always win with no problem. But when you run in RF2 mode you are pretty much just another wi-fi device frequency-wise and have to find clear channels ... just like the wi-fi does. Wi-fi is it's own built-in problem as it interferes with itself and everyone in your audience with a smartphone is touching the wi-fi used to control mixers. The solution for the sound guys would be to switch over to 802.11N at 5G and shut off their 2.4G. This is likely already builtin to their routers but they just dont know about it. That was the audiences cell phones wont hit them either and their network will run twice as fast. So back to your problem ... You can operate in RF2 mode when you can find enough open space or switch over to RF1 mode. Now if you know what channel they are operating on you can pick RF1 channels that shouldn't bother them much as long as you are only operating a couple of Line 6 devices. They are probably operating on 1,6, or 11 as these are the only non overlapping wi-fi channels (in the US) You could also use paddles and focus your pickup area, then switch your transmitters to low power in RF1 mode.
  7. I suspect there may be a few hitches getting everything active at the same time. When a new firmware is released we have to send the notices, post the firmware in the download section and post the new remote app in the App Store. Please note. That when you upgrade the firmware the old 1.10 iPad app will no longer work and you will have to load the 1.20 app. So you may want to wait a few hours until they are both posted.
  8. This is one of those things that would lend itself to measurement just so we know exactly what we have. I often get in my car in the morning to find my stereo blazing ... but that's where I left it when I turned the car off from the night before. That's common threshold shift. AS far as turning up the wav files I wouldn't find that uncommon. There is likely a lot of gain being added in the presets ... EQ, EFX and compressor make up gain aren't printed onto the SD card. "I also put a gate on the guitar to take away the noice when he was not playing. This worked well on the recording, but life when he was playing softly there was no noice." Same thing here. The gate in not being "printed" onto the recording only on the playback.
  9. It appears that the most likely reason this is happening is you are getting a file or directory permission error or a file sharing violation on your computer. Please confirm for me your computer and operating system. Have you tried using a different computer and still get the same results? Have you tried re-flashing the V70/75 receiver before trying to flash the transmitter?
  10. Plain old common momentary switches work. You may have some laying around from a guitar amp or keyboard rig. "Latching" switches do not work (until you click them twice) and should be avoided.
  11. How much difference are we talking about? Are you listening from exactly the same position?
  12. You have to remember that the recording will not reflect any of the sound from the backline amps or drums. So you have to be careful to consider the differences. A gate that you use on the mixer will not affect the stage amp so if in the room you are hearing 1/2 the sound from the amp itself and half from the system for example then the gating effect will probably not make much difference live in the room.
  13. Hey Nick Limiters are set to give a reasonable amount of protection to most things that you could throw at a speaker. But it is not a 100% guarantee. It is possible to do this ... but you would have to throw away a significant amount of the capabilities of your system. Most wouldn't want want to pay for performance and then only get to use 25% of it . That said I wouldnt worry much over it. Especially when you use the entire system via L6 link. There's an incredible amount of protection well above the normal of other systems when you use L6 link. When you combine that with the mixer's ability to ward off potential problems I wouldn't expect problems when using the system as a typical music system. Don't let it get hit by a lightning bolt, or in the middle of the Sahara during summer or at the North Pole during a blizzard. ;)
  14. We have not officially blessed it yet. But we're not seeing any problems with the pre-release versions
  15. That's probably not too much ... But you are pretty close to the limit. You may just need more speakers when playing outdoors.
  16. Is your system an M20d and StageScape speakers? Ae you hooked up via L6 link? The sensitivity controls on the speakers should be at 12 o'clock. I don't know what you mean by "staying on quite a bit". If that means about equal to quarter note beats with the music that's not too much but it means you'll need more speakers to cover the venue. You could also switch the preset on the outputs t the "punchy PA" setting and get some additional loudness.
  17. There is almost nothing that would be plugged into a mixer anymore that has a problem getting unneeded phantom power. About the only thing you could find might be old guitar/bass amps that have direct outs or old wireless mic receivers. In these cases you should consult the manufacturer. Microphones are not a problem (except very old and expensive ribbon mics, again not normally used in live sound work) Most mixers in this price range have an all or none approach to phantom powering. We chose to split it into 2 banks just in case you ind one of those old devices hat might have a problem. This choice is mainly due to real estate. If we added single switchs, which is almost never needed, then something else would have to go.
  18. The inputs to all Line 6 beltpack transmitters are not balanced. You just plug a standard guitar cable into the V30's input. The only real difference is that the V30 receiver does not have cable tone modeling so you may need to adjust the treble on your amps down a bit. Stereo requires two complete systems.
  19. A G30 is a unity level device. You will get the same voltage out of the receiver as you put into the transmitter. So if you use an appropriate mic for your particular situation it should work fine.
  20. See post #22 in this thread. http://line6.com/support/topic/1260-feedback-reduction-barely-working/page-2?do=findComment&comment=15440
  21. You wouldn't be able to actually "hear" it set any filters. They are too narrow for human hearing to detect. Feedback management is set on the input page in deep tweak. It is automatically assigned to those inputs that typically have problems but not set to all presets (e.g. electric guitar settings). You want to use it in the universal setting if you are running any music through the mixer. I would suggest as a start you make certain that your mixer is running the most current version of the firmware. It is available on the downloads tab from the main Line 6 page. Secondly create a new setup just in case somehow a switch was set in the wrong place. Try a test with a single mic (vocal preset). Switch to the input tab while in deep tweak and you should be able to see it set filters as you bring the system up into feedback. That said, there is a limit to how much it can do and feedback will occur with all systems. This will depend on your exact system, its layout and the acoustic space you are trying to work in. Typically you can expect 3 to 12 dB improvement in gain before feedback. If you are also using Line 6 speakers I would recommend shutting the Feedback switches to off and let the mixer do the work.
