That's pretty awesome. Sold.
Great question - and just for you sir, I rushed downstairs to the studio and did a quick and completely unscientific A/B test haha.GrantB wrote:Because if it’s input for when the battery dies also sold. Assuming the tone is clean and not affected.
Saw that. Can’t you just use a short cable with a female end and put this unit in your pocket?Bg wrote:fuck me, could you make a bigger dongle for the guitar? I'd rather have something that clips onto me strap than that!
Be interesting to see how they pitch against the Line 6 G stuffGrantB wrote:Saw that. Can’t you just use a short cable with a female end and put this unit in your pocket?Bg wrote:fuck me, could you make a bigger dongle for the guitar? I'd rather have something that clips onto me strap than that!
Yeah, but a cable with a female end isn't usually just lying around. But yeah, the large dongle is weird. Would be interested to see how much it would interfere with stage antics if plugged straight in like that. I like have to have right angled cables for that very reason.GrantB wrote:Saw that.

Is it a similar size to the dongle for the G10? Which is guess is what it's competing against.null_pointer wrote:Be interesting to see how they pitch against the Line 6 G stuffGrantB wrote:Saw that.

I could imagine having a mostly charged dongle always ready, then setup for the wedding/show whatever, then leave the dongle on the board charging. In between sets I put it back in the hole for more action. I can see an advantage.Scooter13 wrote:I also don't really understand the advantage of the pedalboard version aside from being able to charge the transmitter on stage...which, well if you have to do that you're using a cable for a while anyway. So really you have bulkier version of the transmitter and receiver but taking up pedalboard space? What am I missing?
Gotcha.GrantB wrote: ... mostly charged dongle always ready... In between sets I put it back in the hole for more action.
WL-50 has longer range (20m vs 15m), as well as selectable cable tone (off, short lead, long lead). As Grant says as well, in the event of emergency, no need to pull apart your board, just plug straight in.Scooter13 wrote:I also don't really understand the advantage of the pedalboard version aside from being able to charge the transmitter on stage...which, well if you have to do that you're using a cable for a while anyway.
