bfalch Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Hi, Folks, I just bought the FX100. I plan to use this primarily as an at-home jamming and practicing tool. When I stream audio to the FX100, there is some mild stuttering going on. Occasional short skips, etc. I ranges from many times a song to only a handful. Is there a solution to this? I use mine with an iPad Air that sits on my couch with the floorboard within about 2-3 feet, but slightly obstructed by the couch. I saw that the Amplifi amps have a line-in that some folks are using to get around this problem, but the FX100 doesn't have a line-in, right? (I don't have mine in front of me right now.) If I can't get this working properly, I'll have to return it. I use mine mostly with headphones, so hearing the skipping directly in my ears drives me nuts.

Triryche Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Did you update the firmware? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfalch Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 Did you update the firmware? Yep. You can't use it without updating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triryche Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Sometimes when I load a song there is a small interruption when loading the tone match. Also when I change patches there might be a small interruption. Other than that it only breaks up if I walk too far away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfalch Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 So, Triryche, what do you use to connect to the FX100? It looks like my problem is the iPad Air. When I connect my Android phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 2) to the FX100, the bluetooth audio is flawless. I sure wish there were an Android app for this thing. Then, I'd be golden!

Triryche Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I am using an iPad Air. Sometimes my daughter has a quadrillion apps going in the background with tons of notifications from social media sites, which I think may have caused some streaming issues in the past, I'm not certain though. Now I quit all background apps (double-click the Home button to see all the background apps) and have her sign out of the sites before I use it. Maybe try re-installing the app, forget the BT connection and reconnect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfalch Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 Yeah, I kill everything else running, too. Which version of the OS are you running? I just updgraded to 7.1.1 (the latest), but I haven't tested it yet. I've turned off all notifications, etc... I even turned of my email updates, but still wasn't working. I did see that many other folks do have problems with Bluetooth Streaming on the iOS7. The latest update has fixes for bluetooth, so hopefully that will be better.

Triryche Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I'm on 7.1.1 also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baljerjason Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Sometimes when I load a song there is a small interruption when loading the tone match. Also when I change patches there might be a small interruption. Other than that it only breaks up if I walk too far away. I also have experienced the interruption when switching. It's not small though. Any break in the music is too much really! Come to think of it, I don't recall any mid song switching during any of the demos I watched. I hope it gets sorted in the next update. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
