Line 6 PX-2 Review

While I detest Line6's unwillingness to let the OneSpot power adaptor do the trick, this is an excellent, full length adaptor. I've managed to use it very conveniently, providing power from across the room, snaking under my bed and desk to my DL4.

Digitech PSS3-120 Power Supply for GNX2, GNX3, GNX3000, GNX4, J-Station Review

Digitech PSS3-120 Power Supply for GNX2, GNX3, GNX3000, GNX4, J-Station

I've had 2 problems with this adapter:
1. If you use this with a less stable power supply (e.g. a generator) that's not load-balanced, it likely will fail - I've blown out 3 of these under such conditions and the GNX 3000 I use it with doesn't run on batteries and there's no protection circuitry in either. Note that other power supplies with other effects pedals on the same circuit did not fail and were fine. There's no fuse in either the GNX 3000 or the power supply system (which would be a nice cost-saving measure), so you're stuck with replacing the power supply. I recommend keeping a spare on hand.
2. the wire/ wire support on the low voltage side isn't very good. If you transport it around and use it a lot, the wire will break eventually so treat it carefully.
So, compared to other power supplies on other electronics, it's inferior, but it's the only choice you have.

Boss FS-5L Latching Footswitch Review

Boss FS-5L Latching Footswitch
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I use the FS-5L with my AC-60 and previously used it with my BC-60 Bluescube. The red LED light is great for channel switching and it only takes a single AA battery to power it. The battery lasts a long time. The pedal is designed to interlock with your other FS series pedals. The downside to this switch is the price and the sharp aluminum corners. If you put this in your gig bag it will be torn to shreds. The plastic pedal itself can be slippery and is a relatively small surface.

I have had my RP250 for a couple of years. I had no problems with the power supply until this week.
The cord became loose where the cord goes into the power supply adapter box(that plugs into the wall). I went to power up my RP250 and it flashed liked it was coming on, but ultimately had no power. I jiggled the cord (lightly) and found it to be coming loose at the box.
I have been careful with the RP250 and with the power supply. I guess I could have accidentally pulled on the cord too hard but I don't think so.
So now I'm out the extra money for a new power supply and it seems to be a bit expensive, especially considering how much I paid for the RP250 just a couple of years ago.
But, I don't have much choice. It needs power to work, and this will do that.
Digitech should consider providing a more robust (better built) power supply.

This is the BEST damn AC power adapter that I've ever had in my entire lifetime (and I've had dozens). So order a Pignose amp just for the privilege of owning one of these miracles of craftsmanship.

Tascam CD-VT2 CD Vocal and Instrument Trainer Review

Tascam CD-VT2 CD Vocal and Instrument Trainer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Not everyone has a need for this but if you do, it works very well. It plays a CD well enough although if that's all you need then don't buy this. What it does well is it can either speed or slow the tempo of what is on the CD without changing the pitch, or it can change the pitch of what is on the CD without changing the tempo. It also acts as a tuner. And, it can remove center channel vocals if you want to just hear the music portion of what is on the CD.
Regarding the tempo and pitch change, it executes these tasks flawlessly.
Regarding the vocal elimination, it removes the vocals satisfactorily. I don't think any machine can do a perfect job because there's too many hitches inherent in the recording, but this one does a good enough job so that the vocals are faint enough for someone to sing over and not compete with them.
Build quality is good - it is part of the Teac company and they make quality stuff. I bought a separate power transformer for this unit so I didn't have to worry about batteries, so I have no comments regarding how long the batteries last.
The controls and functions are neatly laid out on the panel and are easy to use. The instruction book is easy to follow. This product does what I bought it for very well so I am happy with it.
