Mishaps with hilariously short patch cables aside (see previous post), after a bit of soldering, that's my new live rig complete, and it's even more compact than it was before if that's at all possible! For the tech nerds, you're looking at a Galien Kruger MB200 200 watt amp (with built in DI so we can run pre-volume/pre-EQ signal straight to FOH), a Shure GLXD4 wireless, IK Multimedia iRig HD2 audio interface and Blueboard Bluetooth control pedal, and a 6th gen iPod Touch running Amplitube 4. Sounds FUCKING MASSIVE. I'll be giving it a good belting before I drag it out on the road just to be sure it'll hold up on a real stage but everything points to it being amazing. Certainly blows your hair back when you stand in front of it, if nothing else! HAHA!
