  1. It is normal that if any speaker in the L6 link drops that all the speakers in the system re-enumerate. Sounds like the mic problem is in the mic, the cable or the input channel. Have you tried a different input channel?
  2. Using multiple iPads on a network will invariably slow that network. That's a wifi problem. That said, it will work better if used with an external router than a dongle wifi stick.
  3. The factory supply will run at any voltage between 90-240 vac. You just need to make it fit the wall outlet.
  4. The most likely cause is that is has some mechanical issue like bend/corroded terminals or possible a cracked circuit board. You should send it in for service.
  5. Any corrosion on the battery terminals? Foreign objects down in the battery compartment? If those are fine then you will need to return it for service.
  6. hey show You are making two different claims that are not necessarily related. That's not to say that you can't have both ... they are probably just have different reasons. In one you are saying that the G50 has a different output level than using a straight cable alone and in the other you are comparing the output of the G50 to the output of another wireless. The second one is easy to explain. The G50 is a unity gain device. You simply get the level out of the receiver the same level as what you put into the transmitter (assuming that you don't have a hardware issue ... Which still needs to be proven out). It was designed to just replace the cord and nothing else. Other wireless units provide gain and there is no easy way usually, without measuring equipment, to know how much gain you are getting. So it is very likely that when you compare the two wireless units there will be a difference in level between them. So in this case there is noting wrong, just a difference in how the units operate. Now if you are getting a difference between using a cable and using a wireless into the same amp ( with no changes made) then that needs looking at. First we need to understand how much difference there is. We also need to understand whether this is happening with only one instrument or with every input to the transmitter. It it is with every instrument then we need to explore hardware issues. If it is with only one instrument then we need to understand the difference between how the transmitter accepts that signal and how the amp accepts that signal. Human ears aren't very good at hearing small level changes so it is best to measure if possible. The best thing would be to play a test tone from a phone or iPod into the wireless and then into the amp. Even better would be to run them into a recording device that could be metered. So if you play that tone and adjust the level to about midway on the meter and then plug that same tone (without adjusting anything) through the wireless and then into that meter it should be very close to the same level. It should be within 1 dB. As Joe mentioned above you should try both the main and tuner outputs. Since they should be the same if we see any difference then there is probably some hardware issue. Once we know all that we can probably give you an answer.
  7. There is no secret button push to either read out or re-trigger the info. First I have to say that I'm certainly not a wi-fi expert. When the mixer first starts up it sends a "if there's any router out there, please send me an IP address ... I'll take anything" and then the router answers back and assigns it usually based on the mac number it sees form the mixer. Once that happens (so if it ever works) even if the cable were to get disconnected it should re-connect once that cable is plugged back in. If you were to unplug and re-plug the USB/ethernet adapter that would cause the system to poll again for the IP address without re-booting. I would expect the router to always re-assign the same address based on the mac address of the mixer. What's wrong ... there are a lot of suspects. We have never seen any bug in the firmware that might cause the mixer to stop sending to the USB port the info needed for the router. Of course you could be the first :D . You could have a hardware issue, but it's much more likely that you either have a problem with the USB adapter or the router. Have you tried swapping them out? Are you using the apple branded interface?
  8. The encryption does not add to latency but I've never seen anyone encrypt a guitar signal. Yes the EQ curves can be switched to off.
  9. The V75BP (mic beltpack) transmitters have some EQ models built-in as well as user encryption which the Guitar belt packs do not. A user cannot load the firmware for one into the other.
  10. The Dynamic Range of a piece of gear is the spread between how loud it can get (before distortion) compared to it's background noise or hiss. Every piece of electronic gear has some amount of hiss but the further you can get above it the better. The G55 has slightly more background noise but it is many.many times less than that of a guitar amp ... which might be in the low 60's. So even if the G55 has 3 Don more than the G50/90 the inherent background noise from your guitar amp will more than drown it out. Even if you ran into a high quality PA system and didn't use a backline amp, I would expect that PA to have a Dynamic range in the low 90's. It's one of those things you can measure, but I don't think anyone can hear it when used with a guitar. It's likely your guitar itself is much noisier than the wireless.
  11. Unfortunately it's not a "user" repair and must be done by our service center. I believe it also involves swapping out a couple of resistors as well as a spacer. Usually the whine is not audible unless you put your hands near the antenna (which detunes the antenna) and makes it worse.
  12. It looks like you issue is likely related to some incompatibility of the Beyer mics and the Line 6 transmitters. I'm wondering if the Mics have some powering requirement ( maybe current consumption) that is causing them to produce the artifacts which are then transmitted by the wireless systems.
  13. Here's a more detailed explanation of how Line 6 XDV wireless works in the same space as wi-fi ... Your application is why we designed RF2 mode. If you are willing to switch your existing wi-fi channels to say 1,2 and 3 then you should be able to use three XDV's operating in RF2 mode. Even better would be to switch one or two of your existing networks over to 5G (especially the one for your Presonus system as it would likely make that one more reliable and double the throughput speed. Thats a lot of fixing for $69.
  14. Yes, there are updates for both the TX and RX. You use a V75 receiver as the computer interface and run the update from Line 6 monkey from the downloads tab of the web page.
  15. There is no adjustment for calibration available. Are both transmitters running the same firmware? Are the battery contacts clean? I would suggest installing the latest firmware rev and checking again. It is also possible that you have some hardware issue and the transmitter may need to be checked by our service department.
  16. Just to clarify. Even though several Line 6 employees frequent these pages, posting on this forum does not necessarily get reported inside Line 6. This forum is intended for users to share and help each other and was never intended to officially communicate with the company. If you need to officially communicate with Line 6 you should click on the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of every web page. Ideascale is also a way to officially present product requests and suggestions to the company. ALL ideas submitted are reviewed, cataloged and presented to the appropriate departments inside Line 6. There is a scoreboard on that page that shows how many shared ideas have been implemented and many more will be incorporated into future products.
  17. If you want to record the sound as a separate file that is not tied directly to the video on the phone itself then you will be going down a much more difficult path. It certainly can be done, but in that case you can record the sound from the V55 onto anything. Then you will need to import the video from your phone and the audio from whatever you record it onto into a video editor program and sync them.
  18. Looks like they are available here. http://www.fullcompass.com/product/428837.html
  19. Usually my first choice is the P180s. They have the ability to reject interference coming from behind them while the P360 pick up everything. But picking depends on how you intend to use them. Using either will give you an improvement with line of sight issues. Usually there is a significant improvement in improving the range but this depends on the venue in which they are used. Take a look at our white paper ... http://line6.com/data/6/0a06439c50b753876a26c95b2/application/pdf/Line%206%20Digital%20Wireless_Advancing%20the%20Room_Remote%20Antennas_v2%20-%20English%20(%20Rev%20A%20).pdf
  20. 1. Yes, everything is compatible (to it's minimum). 2. You can run antennas in the back but it's much harder to deal with. You likely won't have enough space to spay the antennas out 45 degrees (to cover polarity issues). 3. For a vocal mic I would set the environment/dynamic filter to "NORM". I would expect you would only be able to her it work if you were speaking in a quiet voice more than a foot away from the mic. With a singer this almost never happens (but if you hear it you can switch it off). As far as gain adjustments ... I see almost no reason to ever use the. The mic works at unity level and the best performance will be a 0dB. If any adjustments were needed they would almost always be done better by adjusting at the board the same way you deal with a wired mic.
  21. Sonic Port would be the best way to do it. But I do believe (although I have never actually tried it) that you could plug the output of a V55 receiver into the headphone jack and get sound on the video. It would be much harder, especially with a V55 as it has no output level adjustment.
  22. First I would tell you that when you touch the antenna you detune it, so don't touch it. Likewise do not stick a beltpack in your pocket (for the same reason). Assuming that you do not have a hardware issue, the only time I ever have any issues running in RF1 mode is when there is some other transmitter very close to it. Usually that ends up being IEM transmitters in the same rack or a laptop transmitting wi-fi while very close to the receiver. Another thing to avoid is having the receiver, using the whip antennas closer than 6 feet from a wall as the whip antennas are omni-directional and they could be picking up too many reelections from the wall (considering the other interference conditions that may be present). r-mean ... Since you are having a problem with only one of three units it is probable that you have a hardware issue and should have it checked out by our service department. Jefferstein ... my best guess is that you have hit upon an unlucky channel combination in the venue. Try switching the channels.
