Diki, I'll check it out. Thanks.
Dnj, you are right, but WE know the difference at least!
BTW,
I had a close call today. Got to Jonesboro, LA to do a Nursing Home show with Dean and Semilive. I set everything up and as I turned on the keyboard volume got a loud buzzing. I was using a mixer between the G70 and the Bose. I checked all connections, everything o.k., still buzzing.
I changed all cables, no help. I tried a mic in the mixer, no problem there, so the problem with the G70. I tried bypassing the mixer, same buzz. I tried using the headphone outs, still buzzing.
I tried the mic output, and no buzz, so I decided to try the aux output on the G70. By this time it was time to start the show and still no sound. I was searching for the menu to assign sounds to the alternate outs and I happened to think of one more thing. I had plugged the laptop into the aux inputs of the G70. I unplugged that and the buzzing stopped. It was a bad cable from the laptop to the G70. That explained why the mic outs and, I'm sure, the aux outs were o.k., because the aux ins were assigned to them. Also why the headphone outs wouldn't work because the aux ins ARE assigned to it.
Anyway the entire problem was Donny Pesces' fault because he lost the volume knob to the aux ins, and I always have it open!! I never thought it was a problem, so didn't bother to get another knob yet. I will Monday!!
Just joshing Donny!
After that the show was great. Dean on fiddle, Bill playing rhythm guitar and singing. We had a ball, as did the residents. We do this show once a year and it generally is outside on a flatbed trailer, but last night we had a little cold snap go through and they were afraid it was too cool for the residents outside, so we had to do it inside. Played on hour, ate lunch and played another hour.
Fun, fun, fun, since I found the problem.
We had two backups in place. Dean had his Ensoniq keyboard in his van and we could have used it with sequences, and I always have the laptop, but it was much better that we were able to do it as planned.
