Line6 relay users, do you have to compensate the sound?

The_Egonaut · Nov 23rd 2014

Hi folks!
I run my kemper with a Line 6 Relay G30 that I've had for some years and for the first time I feel that its actually colouring the sound (less gain, more mids). I've literally used that wireless unit with over a hundred amps without noticing the difference so my question is; do you Relay users change something in the Kemper?

I'm gonna experiment with the clean and distorted sense today to see if I can get the wireless sound to match the cable.

I'm using a Relay G30 regularly and haven't noticed this.
You can mimick the cable damping of different cable lentghs on the Line 6 device though.
Compared to a very long cable with a certain damping factor the Relay can sound very bright in comparison at first.

No change of the sound with the Relay G30 here.

I'm using the cable simulation with my G90. For my ears it sounds like there are more high frequencies compared to the sound with my 6 meter cable. With the corresponding cable simulation, I get equally good results.

Another thing I just noticed after the update of my G90. If you cannot control the Wifi at then venue (which is nowadays almost everywhere, as any smartphone can act as a Wifi access point), use the rf1 mode /12 channels) with your Line6 Relay system. At least I had problems with my G90 in rf2 mode (14 channels) in a crouded venue.

Maybe it's just me then, I'll go unpack the backlineracks tomorrow and record a comparison clip

I use Relay G50. Think I have the cable simulator at 3.
Wireless system often get the tone more sparkling in the top but the cable simulator works well for me.
