Roland Mobile Cube Battery-Powered Stereo Amplifier

  My 13-year-old wanted to start busking in order to support his guitar habit. This small amp is lightweight and produces excellent sound. He plugs in his guitar and mic and starts singing because the batteries last for hours. It's light, which is ideal for what he's doing with it, and it gets the job done. This purchase has left me quite impressed.

I didn't have high hopes for this amplifier. For the past few years, I've been using a Vox mini5 in conjunction with my Kala KA- SE acoustic acoustic acoustic acoustic I had been satisfied with my electric ukulele and Shure WH20XLR Dynamic Headset Microphone. A Roland Micro Cube amp had crossed my mind, but it only has one input. I was unimpressed when I saw the size of Roland's small amp with two inputs, but Amazon makes returns so simple that I succumbed to the temptation to try it out. It has now taken the place of my Vox. It's not only small and light enough to fit in my messenger bag with the microphone and cables (one less thing to carry), but it also sounds better. With all of the Vox's effects and modeling switches turned off, I get a cleaner sound. br>br>However, I do have one reservation: The 1/4" plugs don't click in like I'm used to, but as long as they work properly, I'll give them a five star rating. On the other hand, if they ever fail, this review will fall like a stone to a single star.

In the midst of the usual full-fledged full-fledged full-fledged full-fledged full-fledged full-f The other musicians were using similar-sized amplifiers. I was also blown away by the sound quality. I highly recommend it for both busking and performing on stage!.

I bring up Mickey Rooney because this small device allows you to "put on a show" wherever you want. br>And, like Mickey, it packs a punch and has some serious skillzzz. br> I don't think any new gear has ever exceeded my expectations quite like this little busker has. br> Clearly written for an acoustic guitar and a microphone. br> Each input should have its own input. Volume knobs on each side. Reverb and chorus are shared. br> The reverb is adequate. br> And the chorus, which I usually dislike, is fantastic. br> It is completely silent in this unit. Even when both the microphone and the guitar are in use. br> I'm not sure how they did it, but it's very resistant to feedback. Even if the 5W is pushed to its limits. br> And I've been using it nonstop at home because it makes my acoustic guitars sound amazing. A fender acoustasonic junior was the only dedicated acoustic amp I ever had. It was actually quite enjoyable. My D-, on the other hand, 28 and J- Both 45's and 45's sound fantastic through this over-sized lunchbox. achiever. br> This was the best $129 I've ever spent.
PS. If you want to play along with something from another source, it also has a third audio input with its own volume control. br> The only thing missing is separate reverb controls for guitar and microphone, but the combined reverb does the trick. br> STEREO, STEREO, STEREO, STEREO, STEREO, STEREO, STEREO br> Oh, yeah, Baby. Roland Beethovan, if you're reading this, please accept my heartfelt greetings.

I use it for ukulele and vocal performances in small to medium venues, and the fact that it is battery powered (I also have an AC adapter) is fantastic. I have a mic stand, iPad holder, and ukulele holder set up. I can hang this little amp from another holder, and I'll have a self-contained audio system. a self-contained performance rig The audio quality is acceptable. It can fill a large meeting room, but not a gym or an auditorium. It helps to reinforce the sound in a group setting. Many of these are used at once by our performance group, and when combined, they raise the overall volume. I use it because it has three inputs: There's a vocal, an instrument, and an aux track. It's not the most cutting-edge technology (there's no Bluetooth), but it gets the job done. It's so small that I packed it in my carry-on luggage when I went on an international trip. in the luggage br>br>Contrary to popular belief, there are a number of disadvantages to using this method. Remember that the mic input is 1/4 inch instead of XLR, so bring the appropriate cable! On mine, the vocal volume knob has been adjusted so that it no longer goes low. This amplifier has had a rough life, so it's understandable.

This is the third Roland amp I've purchased. I needed something battery powered (with optional AC) to use with my electric fiddle for practice and small venues, and I was pleasantly surprised by the volume that this little guy produces. When my partner plugged in her harp, she was equally as impressed - She'll be placing an order for one shortly! The only drawback is that Roland's delay and reverb controls are often combined into one. Personally, I like to use a delay with a little reverb - I'm not sure why they do this; the Roland Microcube does the same thing. Another issue I have with both the Roland Microcube and the Mobile Cube is that the power switch appears to be hidden, making it difficult to locate, especially in low-light situations. situations that are light Apart from those two flaws, this is an excellent little portable device!.

I have no complaints about the sound quality (especially considering its size), but I have noticed that it "farts out" quite frequently - Especially when I'm using the microphone and guitar inputs at the same time - even if I only have both volume knobs half-way up For my purposes, this renders it nearly unusable. What happens is that I'm playing and singing along when all of a sudden there's a loud buzzing noise, followed by silence on both channels for about ten seconds. Very let down.
