Hi Joan, Welcome to the Bose Portable PA Community. Thanks for the interesting question. Before we get into anything else, please follow this link to verify that you have the latest firmware for your T8S. T4S/T8S Firmware Update Instructions Vocal microphones connected to T8S channels 1 through 8 should not be affected when you have audio from a laptop connected to the T8S. Here's an article that details several ways you can connect a device like a laptop to a T8S. T8S Backing Tracks Are you...Read More...

Hi donny, Thanks for coming back to tell us you're okay. If you've got a few minutes, please tell us about your music. Thanks, STRead More...

Hi Ry, Thank you for joining the Bose Pro Portable PA Community. Two channels. You can read the details here: USB port on the T1® Sorry, you can use only one effect in the Comp/Gate group at a time. Personally, I don't use the de-esser or compression on vocals. Let's see if others chime in. Please tell us more about your music. Thanks, STRead More...

Thank you...I just switched mics from a Shure SM58 to the Sennheiser. I liked the sound with the 58 setting, but was wondering if I was missing something. Thanks again,Read More...

Hi Dolalla, Thank you for joining the Forum. Please tell us about what you have connected to your T1®. What microphone(s)? - Make and Model please. What other sound sources are connected to the T1®? Please provide details. Are you using the ToneMatch® Preset(s) Which L1® System do you have? (Compact, Model 1S, Model II, Model I, Classic)? Where are you listening to your system? At home? How big is the room? At a show? How would you describe the sound you are getting now? And how would you...Read More...

Hi kraftyron, T1 to Classic On the Classic, you are probably going to be fine with setting the Channel 1 Trim at 4 (same as you did on Channel 3 or 4). On the Model I The setting will be different depending on whether or not you use a pad. If you use a pad, then you may have to set the trim setting higher. Basically - you can set it by ear as long as the Signal/Trim light is not solid red. Red flickers are okay. Does that help?Read More...

Hi CoolerByTheLake, How are things working out with the band and the T1®. Do you have any pictures or video to share? STRead More...

I carry a pod for backup in case my 50 year old fender amp needs a rest in the repair shop. I found that the pod when set to emulate my BF fender works very well. I run it into the tone engines stereo input and have the air switch set on the pod as well as the jensen speaker emulation. I don't find it perfect at all, but I can use it and not vomit. I love the L1 MII and it's the best guitar friendly PA system on earth. I have been considering running the pod and tube amp together. I run a...Read More...

Hi ST, No problem. Sorry. And I didn't want to tread on your feet with the appreciation thing. It's just that I may well not have opted for the L1 trial without your presence here. And I'm really glad that I did buy it. Take care, TonyRead More...

A lot will depend on how much of the Aura effect you blend in. Most people seem to prefer keeping it low, say 25-40%. This tends to get rid of a great deal of the piezo quack, but keeps it from sounding too effected (too much of the Aura effect doesn't sound that good). I've got a CA GX with onboard Aura. I don't recall which preset I ended up with on my T1, but I tried lots of different ones. There are some CA specific presets, but I also tried guitar with piezo and many others. So much...Read More...

Hi, daystar (Rob) ... try 'em. Do you have a T1, or are you just talking about the Model 1? With the Model 1, Preset 49 is a good starting point. With the T1, in addition to the default set installed, be sure to try some of the downloadable guitar sets ... you can find them here.Read More...

Hi John. I'm currently thinking about upgrading to the x3. Can you have the patches set so that when you switch to a different patch it also switches a vocal effect on and or off. That is, say you had a good bass patch you liked. Some songs you don't want effects and others you do. You you make a B of this patch and then piggy back a vocal effect. So that with one click your vocal effect went on? And then when you went back to B it was off?Read More...

I purchased an AX212 while they were new, 6 months later they came out with something else (maybe first Vetta series, I don't remember) and the discussion of anything AX212 related disappeared. It seems like they move on...Read More...

So far I haven't had the need for wireless, as I have everything set up in a cable snake that makes my cables very unobtrusive.Read More...

that is at Vettaville.nlRead More...

Hi bdotson, That just shows to go ya that there's no one right way to do this stuff. To each, their own, as it should be. I prefer using 2 B1s with my single L1, especially for acoustic guitar and drop-D or drop-C tunings on my electric. I really miss the low end headroom when I use just one, especially at gigs where the volume gets to crankin'... After trying pretty much every modeler out there, including the Pod XT before the PS1 output mode was available, I had all but given up the...Read More...

worked a charm. Thanks, guys!Read More...

Hi Joseph, He's doing great. I was working in Manhattan the week immediately prior to the East Coast bash, and stopped in to visit with Joe, see his crazy backstage world, and share some pizza. If I recall, he had to fly back to SoCal for a special Jersey Boys event the same weekend of our conference, and thus wasn't able to make the trip north.Read More...

Oops - sorry - I found it! Merry Christmas!!!!!Read More...

I added the podXt model packs recently, along with a bundle from a guy named "syntax sinner" at the Line Six Forum, and so far I've made it to patch 4D (out of 32A-D) because I simply cannot believe the awesome power that now comes out of my system. It may have been there pre-model packs, but I feel my tone pallette has simply exploded in options. I can't wait to start writing my own patches with all these new options, but for now, syntax sinner has done all the work, and I'm having all the...Read More...

Can anyone say "Rainsong"?Read More...
