Back on the streets after a lackluster 2021. But its 2022 now! :D A little video was captured of me doing a very slow take on " Strange Meeting " as I get some public confidence back. Wasn't go to post it but after reading a previous thread on" Should I keep playing or give up the Stick?" I thought why not , no clever stuff here but you have to keep at it. I got through nearly 2 hours and it was the kick I needed to push on. Happy New Year to all wherever you are. Lots of nice people wandering past throwing stuff in the case & the shire council hiring me to add some live music to the main street post COVID , so life could be worse.

Alto at its best!

I haven't played the piece for over 2 years ... maybe I should "dig it up" again?

Happy New Year, Bruce!!!

Is that a Roland Cube Street EX?

Hi , its the little KC 110 Roland. Runs on only 8 AA batts but has proven to be super convenient with enough output for these applications. I'm surprised how well it projects , not massively loud of course but enough. Allegedly goes for about 8 hours on a set of batteries. At about hour 6 at present , no sign of batts fading.
I go in to Channels 2 & 3 , Channel 1 has and XLR for Mic in when I sing ( not always) .
I send the bass side in via an eHx LBP1 line amp ( which I think may have been the first eHx pedal) . It gives a small kick into gain stage to get best level from amp. On melody side I go via a TC Echobrain analog delay. Also for gain boost into and some warming ambience. Both these can be Batt powered unlike some of my other pedals so at the unpowered sites in the main street its a super easy quick setup, and easy carry from car.
For the Alto Stick its Ideal, not as good on the Grand in regard to bottom end.

Thanx for the info. It does sound good for the Alto. And so does the way you play it. Very good indeed.
