JBL by Harman dual wireless microphone Best Mic 2024

 

We were surprised that JBL got microphone and then we purchased it. When we tried, it's amazing. Really great mic for the price. We bought a more expensive mic and this one is really good if not, better than the Behringer wireless mic that we bought. I mean it's subjective but for us, it felt that way.

We also managed to buy an alternative case or carry bag for this microphone because we want to keep it safe. Also it's tidier and easy for transport and use. Totally value for money.

Donner Vowel Volume and Wah Combo Pedal Demo Review 2024

Unboxing and demo of this Donner Wah Series, the Vowel (Volume and Wah combo pedal)

On here, I paired this Donner Vowel with my Zoom G1Four and they both complement each other. Perfect combination. 

 

This wah pedal got a good range and natural tone. Very easy to use. Plug n play almost. It doesnt come with a power supply so you need to have one ready. It DC 9v with negative centre polarity. I assume if you're buying this pedal, you probably going to add this to your rig or pedalboard and that would mean you already got a power supply for your pedals. 

Its small for your foot but it's not awkward to step onto. It's just that if you got massive foot, you wont be able to see the pedal but you can feel it underneath. It's very responsive and it's got LED light that turns from green to red. Green means volume and red is wah. Last but not the list the switch is very sturdy so you wont accidentally switch from volume to wah or while you're on wah, it wont accidentally goes back to volume. It's also not that hard to step on the switch to swap from volume to wah. So yeah it does the job done.

How to open and fix your Casio Privia PX S1000

 

Hello guys, Im sharing you this because I personally experienced this. So my son's Casio Privia PX S1000 was having problems with the touch response on D2. It louder than the rest of the keys. It seems like the touch response is not working properly. The trouble was there's no nearby service centre to get it repaired. So I looked up on the net for solution. And, I've seen a post on the forum and they said it's the rubber pads for the keys that needs cleaning using cotton buds. So I said to myself that's easy. But the trouble is how to open the keyboard and taking it apart and then putting it back together after. 

So, I gathered my strength and courage to do it DIY. And here's how it goes. So first thing you need to do is to remove all the screws. Literally all the screws. You will need to open the battery compartment because there's one screw in there as well. 

Now when I removed the screws apart from I put a camera to record what Im doing so I got a reference in case I couldn't put it back together, I also segregate the screws on where I took them so that it will be easy later when I put them back together. So the removal of all the screws wasnt that tricky.

Now the next thing is where I struggled a bit. I can't open the unit. I mean I can't separate the bottom bit and the top bit. But, actually it's just that because the unit was so intact, it hasn't been opened before, so the two bits are stuck together. It just needed a bit of strength for me to pull it apart. And I did.

Next challenge was removing the keys. There's separate screws for this to remove the whole keys. And it's not that difficult. You can see it on the video. There's flat plate on both sides and all you need to do is remove the tiny screws. I think two screws per flat plate. Then there are screws as well on the unit itself, you can't miss it. 

So, the keyboards is literally taken apart now. The next challenge is to remove the individual keys. I struggled on this one. But I just didnt give up and prayed I wont break anything. So I sort of forcefully pulled one white key up until i heard like a snap. But it wasn't broken. I managed to pull it out. However, eventually I found out that all you need to do is pinch the end bit of each key and pull it from that end and it's easy. 

Then the next thing is to lift or remove that rubber contact pad which was very intact that I couldn't remove it. So what I did was, coz I know which key was playing up, I just slip the cotton bud in and wipe it dry. Just wriggling the cotton bud in between the rubber and contact point. And I put the keys back together starting with the black keys. Then put white keys after. 

Then before I closed the unit or proceeded any further, I had to test it first. And to my surprise it fixed the problem. 

Good luck guys!
