Line 6 G10 wireless system

Quote from sambrox

Some monitoring issues (we play with a scratch DJ that also drops breaks in some tracks, and the drummer couldn't really hear him to keep in time! No biggie, it wasn't actually that bad, but we have high standards) and we also chose to play a new track that the drummer hasn't played before...!

Nothing related to the G10 though

Bummer, but for all you know, the performance would have seemed seamless to the crowd. Having high standards is good, more power to you and your band!

The G10 sounds better and better all the time. I'm wondering if I should pick up one, except I have a lot of Bluetooth stuff in the studio (all these mice and pads and keyboards and there's a Triple Play too). They can be found for a good price of about $200, which seems reasonable.

Hardware, I believe. I have a EBMM Luke II with EMGs, but it's in storage at the moment. Maybe this week I'll get out there and retrieve it for testing. I'll keep you posted...

Sorry for waking up this old thread! Sam, did you test the G10 with your Luke? I'm owning the same guitar and wonder if the G10 is working with it... Thanks!

I have been using a G10 Live and at home and rehearsal with a Triple Play and there have been no problems whatsoever.
Very happy with the G10!
Previously had a G30, then G50.

Got two of them!
One for the mag pups, and one for the piezo

The Hosa adaptors are needed because the jacks in my P22 are TRS, and the G10 needs TS.

Been using one of these for a few months, and I love it. Previously worked with Line 6's G90 rack system which did something weird to my tone, and a Sennheiser analog rack unit which was great but used the standard belt-pack style transmitter (which I dislike).

The only downside, and it's considerable, is the poor build quality. It seems so typical of Line 6 to build something as cool as the G10 system and then try to ruin it by installing a power unit which relies on an incredibly flimsy and delicate micro-USB port. My friend has already had to return his unit for a replacement because his broke during a gig, and I've seen similar reports from many others online. Mine's still holding up but I am absolutely expecting it to just cut out one day when I'm relying on it.

I bought G10, today.First impression: No latency .Works fine.

Mine came today as well. I have a gig at a small restaurant tomorrow (with WIFI present). We'll see how it goes.

On the back of this thread my wife got me one of these for Christmas.

Very impressed with it so far!

Putting a micro-USB port on a device, other than smartphones, particularly on musical devices, is the most stupid choice of manufacturers.

It works fine with the Luke

Thanks Sam!

As expected, I have just had to contact my nearest Line 6 Repair Centre to get my unit repaired/replaced.

Here is a modification of the G10.

The micro-USB was also broken. Now I have a 5 V DC connector. The micro-USB also functions for updates etc. but then you must not plug in the 5 V connector.

Excellent... Nicely done!

Has anyone tried going out of the XLR on the G10 to the Return XLR on the Kemper? I don't like the way the G10 rolls off the high freqs on the 1/4 side. It is very noticeable to me and the XLR is not supposed to have the "CableTone" eq on it. Thanks.

Anyone tried the updated version G10S? Looks like they got rid of the micro-usb power plus some other improvements:

I REALLY like the new/proper power input. Seems a couple of reviewers are complaining of limited range though.
