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.
