Questions & Answers
So it must be doing a good job since I can still hear! Though, in all honestly, I haven't had any spikes to test this unit, but I have had other units with very loud signals which prompted me to buy this one.
In some cases putting a DI box between the iPad and the PM55P may be necessary, in other cases try the PM351 if you only have two 1/4" inputs, you will have a spare XLR if you need a room mic or vocal mic.
Is it true that this unit supplies phantom power to your microphone? As far as I am concerned, I do not use the mic input feature either because I prefer to hear the main mix of the song. There's more to it than just me. Furthermore, I use a submixer to incorporate room mics and other software.
It is fine to use the microphone input when adjusting the volume. This is what I've used at home and during rehearsals to practice and compete with electric guitars and drums. For my drummer, who sings and plays drums, I got one of these as well because it works great for him.
Selected User Reviews For rolls PM55P Personal Monitor Amp Battery Opt
I would rate it at 5 out of 5 The sound starts, but I contacted Rolls customer support group about a problem with the earbuds (distortion), but they did not respond. After going to their website and sending a "prickly" message to support, I have yet to hear back. Earbuds from the iPhone and Samson headphones work fine, as long as the latter have a low impedance. According to the label on the headphones I purchased for use with the monitor, the Z on the headphones is too low Rolls recommended what headphones Z they recommended as one of the questions I asked them. They do not include that information in their specs, but as previously stated, they have not replied yet and it has been over a month since then. If you match it with the right headphones or earbuds, this monitor amp has plenty of clean gain.
am giving it five stars for the fact that it is doing exactly what I wanted it to do and sounds fine. I have the limiter on and I have not heard it kick in, which is good since I wouldn't be able to use it if things sounded crushed. Having no idea how hot a signal has to be to engage it has me curious, but not curious enough to consider testing it! The initial setup I had was a MOTU Microbook IIc as my audio interface for my laptop rig and my digital sound card for my in-ear monitors. It was a great concept I've been having issues with my keyboard having trouble connecting to my laptop while showing. I think either I have a bad unit or there are software issues. As a result of the Rolls, I am not concerned about software - a major plus for me. A little beefier than the MicroBook IIc's headphone amp, it has a lot more power. One of the comments here said that this Rolls had distortion with the lower-speed gears I would like to report that my 16-year-old daughter can now play music with impedance earbuds M6 Pros don't distort when used at ohms However, I'm trying to keep as low a volume as possible for my ears The reason why I went to an in-house audiologist is my damaged hearing The ears are the first thing that is affected. This unit would not have been purchased if it did not have a mic/line select on the XLR input. I use the XLR input to take a feed from the monitor board, so having a mic/line select is essential. It was also my intention to check out the PM351, but I could have used the extra line input to feed drums and ambience into my ears whenever I used my MOTU box with a stereo "stage microphone. " This is not possible with the PM55P (I just mix those items into the monitor mix now, unfortunately they come through in mono instead of stereo as they did before). As I really didn't need DI capabilities, and it did not have the option to run off a 9V battery like this PM55P, I decided against the PM351. In the end, the 9V option was attractive to me since I was not certain where I was gonna put it. It appears that some people may have had issues with the power adapter, but I haven't had any problems using it. I'll probably get another one to keep as a spare, and I'll keep a battery in it. It's very flimsy and cheap, so I'll probably just buy another one. Last but not least, I'll speak briefly on using the belt clip - it is nice to have the option, but in their current application I cannot see it being used. There is a lot of steel in this box (for its size), and it appears to be extremely durable. For those interested in ruggedness, this is a plus, but I don't imagine someone is going to wear this around their necks.
The limiter works well, and it is well built. The piano VST that I use most frequently has a bug that causes it to cause me to nearly lose my hearing sometimes. As a result of the hardware limiter, my audio interface and headphones work perfectly and I don't have to worry about damaging my ears. Although the sound is fine, it's not that The sound has a light crackle that is noticeable at higher volume levels. After leaving a battery on overnight after one day, I had to replace it after it died after use. Compared to my shower radio, I was a little surprised (by comparison the battery lasts about a year for it), but this is no big deal since it has a powered I believe that it is a good tool for the price and of good quality.
Exactly what I needed was in this program It has line/mic input selection, built in headphone amplifier, built in battery, audio passthrough, etc. The only complaints I have are that it is heavier and bigger than I expected, and the labels on the knobs and switches are illegible.
Everything I hoped for it to be has been achieved. I can't hear any noise from this, and it runs in perfect harmony with my existing gear. It doesn't occupy much space, and it has been an amazing addition to my setup. Rolls, you did an outstanding job!.
We will let you know after a follow up review when we are sure. Despite what seems to be a good design, I am hearing a weird sound through my headphones that sounds like random popping and buzzing. There is a possibility that it is due to the mic I am It's plugged into the unit using a contact clip mic that has a 1/4" jack and then goes into an XLR. It would be nice if it had a combo jack and an XLR connector on the mic input so it could be used as a 1/4" jack and Only the XLR and 1/4" jack for the line input can be found on this unit. It is an all-in-one device that is very practical. noise cancelling headphones to listen to the sound coming from the piano sound board while tuning pianos since it's impossible for the sonic world out there to remain quiet while I'm performing! My kind of solution!.
