Most Difficult Instrument In Band

Wow, this works really well. I bought it for the band at our church. Makes it very easy for someone who plays an instrument and sings to have a decent in-ear monitor without spending a fortune. Very solid all-metal construction. Setup and use are very simple; the diagrams & labels silk-screened onto the top make it easy to see what should plug in where. As a nice additional touch, it doubles as a direct box for the instrument input. I highly recommend the optional MSC106 mic stand adapter if you're using this on stage. Only drawback is that you need a long cable or an extension for your ear monitor / headphones. If you mount this on a mic or music stand, you don't have a lot of room to move. We'll be buying a mix of these and the 1-channel PM50s to move our whole band to in-ear monitors.

We use a snake combining vocal mic, instrument mics, D.I.s, and monitor cables for each band member, running to their area of the stage from the stage digital mixer, and this product makes it easy to customize those changes and change out cables when necessary.

If anyone in your band wants more me control of their in-ear foldback for both their vocals and an instrument (or two instruments), then this is THE box for them! Ok so it costs more than the 2 channel competition, but this has the essential 3rd channel the others lack, plus an integral stereo DI box, so the total cost is much the same. What is really nice is the way it can be set for mono or stereo inputs on both the instrument channel and the main foldback. The cct diagram even contains instructions to convert the mic channel for line level inputs. A really useful box, and a much better buy in real terms than the competing products, for use by real musicians!

This is a precision instrument that is a pleasure to use. It has made it possible for me to take shots that would be been difficult if not impossible before. I can not recommend it more for anyone who shoots with tilt shift lenses and has to stitch panoramas on a regular basis. It's pricy but really worth it!

This little diffuser works very well for its size.I is, however, a little difficult to put on the flash, once you have it installed, it works as it should. The elastic band holds well, although I expect with heavy use the elastic will wear quickly. However, for occasional use this diffuser works well, also packs very easily. I would recommend this diffuser.

This is a difficult item to review in some ways, and easy in others. The quality of this item is very good. I think what makes this appealing has to do with the world we live in. In this age of consumerism, we are surrounded by poor quality items designed purely to keep costs to a minimum. This strap is substantial and, other than the attachment rings and the sticking, is made entirely of silk and nice quality leather. The flat band sits nicely on the neck. I use this with a Leica M digital. This is not a strap for a heavy DSLR and lens combo. I have no doubts it would hold up, but given it is only wide, the weight would be too concentrated on a narrow band of your neck. This strap also works well by wrapping a couple times around my wrist for carrying my M in my hand. It is a good length for wearing on the chest, and OK for across the chest, but just barely long enough for that. If you are large, that may not work for you. For a simple neck strap, this is pretty expensive. If you feel good about paying and using quality products, that skilled human hands play a part in producing, than this may be for you. I personally enjoy using it and have no regrets.

Purchased after having difficult experience with the Netgear Orbi. This Synology Wireless Tri-Band Mesh Router coupled with the Synology RT2600 AC Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router serve as the backbone for my 1.3k sqft apartment and I've experience no drops with higher throughput (compared to the Netgear Orbi). Great products, highly recommend.

I have read other reviews and did not find the passing of wires that difficult. A little patience and manipulation of cord and band was all that was needed. I tried to accommodate other types of headbands and they were just not that comfortable.

I use this for my triton Korg keyboard when I perform with my band. It looks terrific and way more professional than the table i used to use. It was a little difficult to initially set up, but I got my neighbor to do it for me :)

I had problems with another brand crossbar that you had to twist to lock or unlock. Most times it was very difficult to operate. This Impact Heavy duty 12' crossbar (black) is 100% better. It uses friction to hold itself in position when you extend or retract, so it eliminates that twist lock-unlock mechanism. Also when you tip it to one end it does not slide open accidently. Has a nice painted coating on it (not oily) and does not sag with 107 paper rolls. Highly recommended.
