Ganey ..

Ganey,

Thanks for the great demonstration

I'm getting serious about purchasing one of these units.

Have you been playing the FR-18 live at gigs? If so,
how has it been performing for you?

I recall that Dwight had an issue with tonality?
(Maybe he got that fixed.)

Merci!

Re: Ganey ..

I am not certain, but I think Dwight's concern was just an issue with settings. The very first time I brought it to a gig, all of the guys grimaced at it. I wasn't too keen on it, either, but I had only received it the day before and didn't have time to read the manual, or play with it. After reading about the settings, I figured out the defaults and what settings I preferred. After that, it was all good. It sounds fat. I think I mentioned before that Chris Miller was playing fiddle with me one night and commented at how good it sounded in the mix. By itself, it isn't completely convincing, but in the mix, it is superb.

Oh, and check your email.
