"Contrary to one reviewer, I find the Wah sound fine, maybe that's because I'm an old Hendrix man."
"I have this hooked up to my POD HD Pro X and it works pretty well."
"That being said if you have a line 6 amp, this pedal is a must have for the amp!!!"
"Using Line 6's Spider IV amps, it's only real shortcoming is it's inability to switch between the 16 User Banks - that is, it can only switch between the 4 channels within a single User Bank. The fix is to throw another hundred bucks at it and get its bigger brother the Line 6 FBV Shortboard MkII Foot Controller But it's worth it, I guess, because the Shortboard gives MUCH more control than just bank switching."
"Very nice, I have the amplifi 75 and it works well, I give it 4 stars- positive : stores presets and WiFi unnecessary (people complained about this not being reliable for live play because Bluetooth ?"
"I bought a Line 6 spider IV 75w amp over 3 years ago, and i love it. I love all the effect available right at my finger tips."
"All I wanted was a foot pedal to trigger the loop function, and I paid over $80 for this flimsy defunct contraption."
Clean, modern design featuring no bulky cables sticking out, durable and lightweight ABS plastic, rubber grip pedals to ensure full contact with the pedal every time, and easily readable LED's indicating mode selection and battery life. Works with many apps for Apple iOS, iphones, ipads and ipods, Bluetooth equipped Android devices, PC’s and MAC’s. Take control of music reading, scrolling lyrics or guitar tabs, teleprompting or media control, and more.

"excellent pedal for page turning."
"Great product, I use the BandHelper Music program on my iPad, Took me a an hour to configure to the program WOW so cool."
"Disconnects from Bluetooth connection quite a bit while on stage."
"Yes it works."
"I am still learning all the features, but everything I see is first rate."
"better than the airturn pedal and cheaper, highly recommended."
"1/4/2018 Update- This pedal is now very unreliable. I charge it prior to the gig, test it out at home, bring it to the gig, try it out during rehearsal and it will work, then not work."
You'll want the Roland GA-FC foot controller for your Roland GA-112 and GA-212 guitar combo amplifiers if you want to get the most out of them. Controls - FUNCTION switch MANUAL switch CH 1-CH 4 switches.

"Not my first SKB keyboard case and not my last."
"Great!"
"Very useful for my husband!"
"Very sturdy."
"What a great flight case -- excellent design, strong latches, nice wheels & handles, rugged construction, trim and light (for a flight case) and available in many different sizes."

"I have a recording studio in my basement and I like to keep my amps off the ground for better sound and protection against the possibility of flooding."
"I use them in the home music room so I can't give an opinion about taking them out to gigs."
"Great space saver for me in a small room and easy to reach to adjust the controls."
"I haven't had a problem with the arms being too short in the back and allowing the amp to fall backwards, it clears the open space in the back of my amp just fine. It folds down okay for storage but if you're really cramped for space you've got to remove the two arms as they are rather bulky and cumbersome when left attached."
"Works great."
"Good construction quality, balance is OK but not great for a Fender Mustang III amp."
"This stand feels pretty solid and is well worth the price."

Find Best Price at Amazon"When I found out that COWIN, manufacturer of a couple of speakers I really like released the COWIN 6110, I immediately made the purchase and was very excited to find out how it compares to my other Bluetooth speakers. == Package Contents. 1 – Bluetooth Speaker. 1 – Charging Cable. 1 – Auxiliary Cable. 1 – Strap. 1 – User Guide. 1 – Thank You Card. 1 – Donation Notification Card. 1 – Thank You Letter. == Controls. The controls are conveniently located on the right side with the speaker facing the user. The Bluetooth button activates pairing mode (only needed when you have difficulty pairing the speaker with your device). From a sound quality reproduction perspective, this speaker performs about the same as Anker’s Soundcore 2. Calling the last number dialed on the phone paired with the speaker is accomplished by pressing and holding the play/pause button. This would normally be accomplished by double pressing the play/pause button with other speakers so keep this in mind. == Pros. • Good audio reproduction. • Rugged and durable. • Loud with excellent low frequency response (more bass). • Includes a carrying strap. • Good price. • COWIN donates 1 USD to UNICEF if the purchaser leaves a product review. == Cons. • None. == Conclusion. COWIN’s MD-6110 is a very good speaker for its price. Similar speakers to consider when looking at COWIN’s 6110 is Meidong’s MD-2110 and Anker’s Soundcore 2."
"I highly reccomend putting the beats pill down or the $250 JBL speakers down, and trying one of these out."
"The quality of sound is wonderful and the battery can be used a long time."
"Very satisfied with this purchasing, and I am willing to share my ideas with the people who want to but this perfect Bluetooth speaker.Firstly, this speaker's metal appearance is very durable, and it is very portable,very suitable for outdoor using, I always carry it when I was climbing，Convenient!"
"The COWIN 6110 is exactly what I was looking for: Excellent construction, great sound and its Bluetooth circuitry quickly connects with both of my Samsung tablets. UPDATE: Until I started using the COWIN 6110, I had assumed that having the sound play slightly behind a video was a characteristic inherent in all Bluetooth speakers. However, the Bluetooth audio coming from the COWIN 6110, connected to my Samsung Tab S2, is perfectly synchronized with the the video from both MP4 and streaming Internet sources."
"I love this portable Bluetooth speaker. It even sounds good at low volumes, allowing others at a table to carry on a conversation."
"I thought it would be louder (blast me out of the room) because the picture shows it being used in a car in the drink holder."
"Purchased as a gift for my guy after it was recommended to me by a friend - he needed a speaker for his phone."
