My band uses the QU-16 for our FOH and IEM mix. I've must say I've never had such a good sound. All 3 of us in the band have our own seperate mixes and couldn't do a gig without IEM's now.

What IEM's do you use

I've got a pair of 6 driver Inearz, smaller company out of Orlando Florida. Amazing sound and finish.

We're using hardwired stereo IEM on rehearsals, using Logic X. It sounds excellent, very good Kirchhoff Drums kit miced with audix and neumann mics, both guitars are Kemper, bass going DI through a plug in. Very transparent. Bass guy insists on moving some air with his Ampeg 8x10, though .
We do not use IEM live as most venues we play are not equipped that well and we don't have a board to take along. So stage sound almost always is total mayhem.

I'm aware of the 'more of me' factor, i'd like to hear how you set up your mix anyway just to have a comparison. So a clip is highly appreciated .

sure, I'll post one from the next practice. I'd be a bit bummed practicing with that kind of setup then live is totally different. IEM's keep everything consistent for us.

Thanks for posting your setup in detail. Awesome work! And +1 for a pratice recording

To all IEM-Users: Do you have drums on your ears? As I plan getting IEMs with my band I'm curious if that's really a need or just a nice-to-have

I've got some drums just so I know they are there. Lots of low end punch.

Cool set up. I'd like to hear the sound of one IEM mix as you get it to your ears live.

I'm more then positive everyone has a 'more of me' mix, though I could record practice and you could hear it!

Cool video, thanks for sharing.

So you are running FOH and monitors through the Beringher? Can you also add reverb to the IEMs through the mixer?

Thanks again,
Sean

Yes there are 8 effect slots (i believe from 44 different effects to choose from) you can run as a send or direct. Pretty cool!

We use the Behringer X32 Setup, too. FoH is the X32 Standard Console. On Stage we have two S16 and the X32 Core. Every musican has his own P16M. It works fantastic!

We thought about the p16m route but it would increase size and setup so we just left it as is.

Thanks for sharing! My bassist doesn't go the the IEM's, how'd you get yours to go with it? ( recently converted my percussionist during a recent recording session, just one to go!)

We were all thrilled of the idea of no more amps (assuming the foh system is capable), no more monitor sound checks, and complete control of our ears. No one argued.

Might be to interest of some of you. Just a quick video

I too also recently got a pair of 6 drivers. Best sounding iems ever.

We recently upgraded our Iem rack.

Very cool,

actually there are other mods that go beyond this. A few years ago i purchased a used USA strat from a guy who had that strat modded with the "Lemme C Switch". I never heard of this before, but in fact, it´s awesome. It replaces the original tone pot on your guitar with a pot that has six fixed positions to choose from. Each position has a different set of capacitors enabled. It allows you to change the resonant frequency of the pickups. It does this without sacrificing the tone like with standard tone pots. It actually feels like you had six different pickups in your guitar. Especially with a sginle coil strat this allows you play hi gain rhythm styles without the typical high mid twang. You just go down 2 or 3 positions on your pot and it feels like you are playing humbuckers, without the extra output of course.

I only have a german language link:

Can it do the opposite?

My band had their demo session yesterday so we could try out aload of IEM's. We tried JH audio's the whole range along side the 1964's We all prefered the 1964's. Price wise this seemed a no brainer as well as the 1964's are in a better price bracket. I personally went for the 6 drivers per ear 1964's while my drummer and bass player went for the triple drivers in each ear by 1964's because they were more in their price range. But they did both say that the 6 driver ones sounded better.

the 1964's are nearly half the price of the equivalent JH ones and we just felt the 1964's sounded better

Our bassist got a pair of quads from 1964 then ended up getting a remold + 1 driver from Inearz. Check out the review

I pieced together our new IEM rack.

It's based around a MOTU 828mk3 and Cuemix Fx. It lets us route 8 seperate stereo mixes, all controllable from our iphones or ipads. EQ, compression, reverb, levels all from the ipad is awesome! Though we've maxed out the DSP. Something like a RME UFX ($2200!) or a Behringer x32 rack when it comes out would be a better choice. the x32 is limited to 16 channels unless you get the digital snake box that is another...900?

24 inputs. Amps change automatically via MIDI, programmed light show thanks to DMXIS. Our other guitarist is in the process of getting a kemper and the PSA is for bass. The two racks will be linked via DB25 cable.

When guitars need extra sound support, we've got the EH magnum 44 power amp pedal. I played through it once against a IIC+ and the Magnum was PLENTY loud.

Bump for the presets I showed =DDD

Uploaded the grind settings!

Thanks. It's toon track metal foundry but kick and snr are triggered. Charles j walls death kicks and revolt studios Nashville snrs.

Here's a clip I made with a psa profile I made last night. Just was twisting knobs but it sounds like a svt with more gain and punch

Good to see you're enjoying the Kemper, I just got one myself and just grabbed your patches.

Ironic that I sold you yours, and I'm using your patches!

Ha! How Ironic. Glad you got one Zach, I get a huge grin every time I plug into mine.

I'll do more profiles of the gp1000 with a mesa OS straight cab into my warm audio wa12 (512 clone)

btw, Gp1000EQ had an Ashley para eq before the power amp to do the eq'ing...

I know there are a few but none of them really justify it. Plus some bass profiles would be great to have.

I just got a used psa1 so I was just checking if anyone wants any specific presets or settings?

I know I'll do the schenker and SVT preset!

Quote from waraba

Hi I've been tryin' them , they are really really good, instant killer lead tone with a Les Paul . I used a Bogner cab and also tried a 2x10 fender , it sounds great for leads with that mid 'nasal' growl.

Thx for profiling this rare gear.

R

Great, I really like the lead profile as well. Enjoy

They are on the kemper site, search gp1000!

Modified Lee jackson transition 87' > VHT power amp (no-brand 6L6's) > Marshall 1960B cab > Sennheiser 906 on flat mode/ Shure 57

If you have the right pickups, you can get "that" tone out of it

I'm organizing and exporting them now! It will probably just be the two profiles I posted mp3's of above. Stay posted!

So rack skins will be available soon?! Yes!

haha! I got lucky and left when no one was looking! Anyways, I'm now in a hotel in VA with much better WIFI!

Here's a typical bodom lead sound (Jackson kv2, j50bc + je1000)

And something a little more modern (jackson rhoads pro, blackouts, tuned to drop b)

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42168306/Tha…d%20dos2-01.mp3

A bit grainy due to the blackouts! I will get the profiles posted in a few days.

Thanks. I set to the master clock to spdif and problem solved.
