1st guitar related new thing Iv bought in h-ages but worth it!
you've got the same PC speakers as me.... theyre not bad.... mine are sat on my desk at work on music duty
For me the THR is just the easiest way I know to practice my guitar.... and it gets brought out when otherwise, if I had to even switch a couple of things on and plug in a couple of cables, I might not practice.
I've been busy this week, and think I've used the THR three nights till 10pm+ I have practiced with headphones in the past, but I dont really lilke the wires, or being sealed off from whats going on around me.
I've got the even slightly smaller THR5, and its really the size of a shoe. Sits on the couch next to me... fiddle a bit with it, but not that much.... I've got an ipod shuffle clipped on to the bar there and plugged into the aux for jam alongs. I like the fact you can run it on batteries too.... and find so far they last long enough not to piss me off.
They are quite a bit of wedge for what they are.... but the concept is good, and its well executed.
I posted this in another thread but that sank, so take 2.
Has anyone with a THR10 worked out if you can change the recording level when connected via USB. The manual seems to suggest you can with the THR5, but the THR10 seems to be a mixed output level. Doesn't seem to be a real problem, just wondering if I am doing it right.
I'm using a MacBook with GarageBand and all the level settings for the input device are greyed out.
I've not tried my THR with the recording software in earnest, I think I tested it on 'day one' to see if it worked. I had a look at the editor screen today and the level setting is greyed out, but I didn't have my THR connected. I will try to remember to test the link out and see if the level control becomes active.
I use mine with rechargeable batteries NiMh and they last a reasonable time (a couple of weeks of use) with headphones.
I don't even bother to take it out of its carry case, cut down/modified laptop bag, open the top flap to access to controls and plug a guitar in. As @wordy says, its the easiest way to practice guitar. I don't have room to leave a proper rig set up and ready to go.
just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
