Best Busking Karaoke Setup
Someone asked me before on what is the best and easiest busking karaoke setup? And the answer is so simple, The Bose S1 Pro. It has everything you need for a portable PA speaker. It's got built in reverb plus tonematch option for mic and instrument. It's got treble and bass eq and got three channels where you can dedicate channel 1 for your vocals then channel 2 for your instrument and then channel 3 for your backing tracks where you are able to connect to it wirelessly via bluetooth.
Now lets get to the specifics on how to setup your portable lightweight karaoke. You will need a decent mic either wireless or with a cable. Then your tablet or ipad for your karaoke tracks plus table or ipad stand. It's either a tripod or a tablet holder for mic stand if you are using a micstand. And that's about it. You can now jam along, sing along and party wherever because the Bose S1 Pro is very portable and rechargeable.
So enjoy the beautiful sound quality Bose has to offer and it's pretty loud as well so you can really enjoy your music and your audience will enjoy too.
Is the Bose S1 Pro the new modern electric guitar amp
I am so pleased about this new discovery where I am using my Bose S1 Pro as an electric guitar amp. It handles effects pedal very well. Also even with the electric guitar plugged in straight to the Bose S1 Pro, with its builtin reverb and tonematch option for instrument, it really sounded great.
Obviously when a multi-effects pedal processor is used, any speaker would do because of the amp sim and cab sim that comes with the mult-effects processor. But the Bose S1 Pro, sound superb. It's like listening to a concert. The sound is so clear, crisp and well-balanced. The bass and the treble are perfect.
Also it is worth mentioning that the speaker is small, lightweight, loud and the option for a rechargeable battery which makes it more portable and no need to worry for any power outlet when doing outdoor gigs. Another very useful feature is the bluetooth wireless connectivity for my backing track. Which for most guitarists who already got lots of pedals and cables to connect, the last thing to do is to connect our phones or tablets to our amp where at times the right cable is needed for both the amp and the phone or tablet. And worse is the sound quality when you plug in your phone or mp3 player or tablet to a guitar amp. It just doesnt sound right. But with the Bose S1 Pro, you will truly enjoy your music or jam because everything just sound awesome.
Hack on roll up drumkit how to make double bass pedal
This is purely by accident. All I wanted was to use a sustain pedal and my improvised splitter was playing up so I bought a splitter converter online which is 3.5mm stereo to 1/4 inch female socket jack. And when it arrived, I tried it and it converted the pedal into double bass pedal.
Here's my other video on the sustain pedal in case you are interested in getting a cheap but durable sustain pedal which can be used as your drum pedals.
Orange Crush Mini Best Practise Guitar Amp
I was looking for a portable battery operated mini electric guitar amp and found this one online. It is really good in a sense that it sounded great when plugged into a speaker cabinet. The other thing that is really valuable apart from it size is that it's battery operated. You can jam anywhere with this one. It also got built-in tuner and last but not the lest, it handles effects pedals very well.
Here's another video where I tried it with my individual stompboxes.
And here's my verdict with this mini amp why it's a keep.
