Joelheck: /* Joel - The Difference */

== Introduction ==
Hi, I am known here as joelheck,(which is just part of my email address) the act is now solo as Joel - The Difference.
The Difference is the old band I played in back up North many years ago.

[http://facebook.com/joel.thedifference]

== Been Playing Since ==
I started off around 1962, playing Guitar, Bass, Keyboards and Sang with a number of groups for 18 years, paused for Corporate life, about 15 years and now back at it strong for the last 6 years on Vocals and Guitar.

== Joel - The Difference ==
I have gone back to being a Solo act for the past few years doing Vocals and playing Guitar with backing tracks. I cover a wide variety of music, mostly Oldies, Standards, Light Jazz, Tropical-Rock and Country.
Although its a bit more work as a Solo, the variety of music is great and I am able to keep it constantly moving with playing several local restaurants, events and the Parrot Heads Club for over 6 years, covering the hits of Jimmy Buffet and a Caribbean flavor, Trop-Rock as it is sometimes called. Either way, as former lead singer for previous bands, I keep busy, and have a great time entertaining around town.

EV RE-2 Wireless Microphone Review

2008-09-15T04:51:25Z

Joelheck: /* What do I like about the product */ additional mics

[[Image:ev767a.jpg|right]] [[Image:evre2.jpg|right]]
==Review or Comparison of multiple products==
* Review of one product

==Identify the product - Make, Model, List Price, Typical Street Price==
Electro-Voice RE2-N7 Wireless System with EV 767a Dynamic Element
MSRP: $690. Typical Street Price: $499.

===Features===
* RE-2 Receiver
* Frequency Agile
* Balanced XLR audio output for Microphone or Line level signals and a 1/4-inch line level jack
* LCD displays Group, Channel, Frequency, xmitter battery level, diversity operation, RF, and Audio signal level meters
* NDYM 767a Dynamic premium vocal microphone with VOBTM(Vocal-Optimized-Bass)

==Setup Instructions==
In our case, we could use the Transmitter/Receiver as shipped. In some cases, with additional units, you may wish to perform channel selection. To be covered later.

==Interaction with the {{L1 no link}}==
Connection to a {{T1}} channel 1 2 or 3 was straightforward, using an a standard XLR cable.
Adjust the trim as per normal gain staging and adjust volume as necessary.

==Application==
We found it well suited to both Male and Female vocal applications. During announcements, pressing the appropriate channels effects mute button on the T1 allowed more than sufficient volume levels for announcements, without feedback issues.
During most vocal applications, given the outdoor area and music style, a light amount of reverb, gave a nice enhancement to the vocal, with out feedback problems. Using moderate, compression, gave rise to a potential feedback problem at higher levels. Further testing later, gave the impression that there was not sufficient benefit with the compression, to warrant the feedback risk. This has been observed to a greater extent with other microphones, in this setting.

==How Testing was done==
The L1 was located, about 2 feet behind and 4 feet to the left of the microphone stand, in a "L" shaped outdoor setting, under a covered Lani, with a open area with umbrella tables behind and to the right of the sound setup.. It was a Club meeting and party event, so noise levels were fairly high, with about 120 people.
While the singer performed, test members, walked about the room, checking volume and intelligibility levels at various test spots. During Meeting time, testers performed the same listening for six various speakers, of male and female announcements.

==General Comment==
All the test listeners commented on the clarity of each speaker and how well the singers sound projected to all areas.

==What do I like about the product==
I really liked the sound quality of the EV RE-2 system and the light comfortable feel of the wireless microphone itself. The battery life was excellent, with better than 8 hours performance. The responsiveness and clarity was equal to the wired version of the EV nd767a microphone. It has a nice proximity effect while eating the mic so to speak, that does not muddy up or get overly bassey sounding. I have a pair of wireless Nady UHF 10's, a Wireless Sure Headset (very thin sounding)and an SM58. I prefer these EV RE-2 microphones over any of them.

==What I do not like about the product==
As of this testing, I have not come across any dislike for the product.

==Quality Rating==
The receiver is a metal case and appears to be quite solid. Although the microphone/transmitter is a plastic case, it has a very comfortable feel, nice and light, easy to hold for 4 hours. The range of over 300 feet experienced no dropouts or interference noises.

==Review Summary==
I've tried quite a few different microphones, both wired and wireless, and this one is a definite keeper. I feel it has a reasonable price, value, and quality to it.

While the singer performed, test members, walked about the room, checking volume and intelligibility levels at various test spots. During Meeting time, testers performed the same listening for six various speakers, of male and female announcements.

==General Comment==
All the test listeners, commented on the clarity of each speaker and how well the singers sound projected to all areas.

==What do I like about the product==
I really liked the sound quality of the EV RE-2 system and the light comfortable feel of the wireless microphone itself. The battery life was excellent, with better than 8 hours performance.

==What I do not like about the product==
As of this testing, I have not come across any dislike for the product.

==Quality Rating==
The receiver is a metal case and appears to be quite solid. Although the microphone/transmitter is a plastic case, it has a very comfortable feel, nice and light, easy to hold for 4 hours. The range of over 300 feet experienced no dropouts or interference noises.

==Review Summary==
I've tried quite a few different microphones, both wired and wireless and this one is a definate keeper. I feel it has a reasonable price, value and quality to it.

EV RE-2 Wireless Microphone Review

2008-09-08T06:48:05Z

Joelheck: Initial review

=Review EV RE-2 Wireless Microphone=

==Review or Comparison of multiple products==
* Review of one product

==Identify the product - Make, Model, List Price, Typical Street Price==
Electro-Voice RE2-N7 Wireless System with EV 767a Dynamic Element
MSRP: $690. Typical Street Price: $499.

==Features==
* RE-2 Receiver
* Frequency Agile
* Balanced XLR audio output for Microphone or Line level signals and a 1/4-inch line level jack
* LCD displays Group, Channel, Frequency, xmitter battery level, diversity operation, RF, and Audio signal level meters
* NDYM 767a Dynamic premium vocal microphone with VOBTM(Vocal-Optimized-Bass)

==Setup Instructions==
In our case, we could use the Transmitter/Receiver as shipped. In some cases, with additional units, you may wish to perform channel selection. To be covered later.

==Interaction with the L1==
Connection to a Tonematch channel 1 2 or 3 was straightforward, using an a standard XLR cable.
Adjust the trim as per normal gain staging and adjust volume as necessary.

==Application==
We found it well suited to both Male and Female vocal applications. During announcements, pressing the appropriate channels effects mute button, allowed more than sufficient volume levels for announcements, with feedback.

==How Testing was done==
The L1 was located, 4 feet to the left of the microphone stand, in a "L" shaped outdoor setting. It was a Club meeting and party event, so noise levels were fairly high, with about 120 people.

** Jack said Geneva Hall can be rented for $150 to $200 day. (probably weekend vs weekday rate).
** Their standard rooms rates on weekends are (for mountain view) $110 / night to $170 / night for a larger room with two queens.
** They discount the rooms (with a booking of 20 or more rooms) $30 on weekdays. (Sunday - Thursday).
** They can provide all meals and offer full bar service. Every Friday night they have a Prim Rib and Seafood buffet. Or, if we had 75 people or more, they'd provide the buffet for us exclusively some other evening. They can do things like "three menu option" meals as well.

"

* Another option is the Geneva Hall nearby. The Geneva Hall can be rented for $150 to $200 day. (probably weekend vs weekday rate). See John Sweets detailed notes: <br />Called Switzerland Inn - spoke to nice man named Jack.
** Jack said Geneva Hall can be rented for $150 to $200 day. (probably weekend vs weekday rate).
** Their standard rooms rates on weekends are (for mountain view) $110 / night to $170 / night for a larger room with two queens.
** They discount the rooms (with a booking of 20 or more rooms) $30 on weekdays. (Sunday - Thursday).
** They can provide all meals and offer full bar service. Every Friday night they have a Prim Rib and Seafood buffet. Or, if we had 75 people or more, they'd provide the buffet for us exclusively some other evening. They can do things like "three menu option" meals as well.

==== Geneva Hall ====
[[Image:Geneva Hall 001 (Medium).jpg|thumb]]
[[Image:Geneva Hall 008 (Medium).jpg|thumb]]

Geneva Hall is a country meeting hall. It is all wood. Wood floors, walls, ceiling. Approximate dimensions are 30x60. There are approximately 50 metal fold-up chairs. There is a small raised stage in one corner. It is raised approximately 8". There is a kitchen and refrigerator. We could provide beverage services. We do have a nice patio on the lobby of the lodge; it is not covered.

Pictures of Geneva Hall added today, 3-17-08.

Quoting Eve-at-Bose<ref name="Eve" /> (referring to the site map above)
:There is a good variety of rooms and prices. For those who want to save money and go more rustic, there is #19 (Edelweiss) which has 8 bedrooms for $50 each. The A-Frames are so cute, and there are more apartment type accommodations. He said that you can take $20 off whatever rate you see on the site. Right now there is no one else booked there.

Update:
The rate is now '''$30 off''' whatever you see on the site. You must mention that you are with the Bose group.

:RV's are fine. He has a space with electric and water hook up, but not sewer.

=== On the Grid ===
There will be wireless internet access (being installed on April 15th). This should cover most of the area including the Mountain View restaurant where most of the action will be. This should also cover the main lodge (Building 10)

* Another option is the Geneva Hall nearby. The Geneva Hall can be rented for $150 to $200 day. (probably weekend vs weekday rate). See John Sweets detailed notes: <br />Called Switzerland Inn - spoke to nice man named Jack.
** Jack said Geneva Hall can be rented for $150 to $200 day. (probably weekend vs weekday rate).
** Their standard rooms rates on weekends are (for mountain view) $110 / night to $170 / night for a larger room with two queens.
** They discount the rooms (with a booking of 20 or more rooms) $30 on weekdays. (Sunday - Thursday).
** They can provide all meals and offer full bar service. Every Friday night they have a Prim Rib and Seafood buffet. Or, if we had 75 people or more, they'd provide the buffet for us exclusively some other evening. They can do things like "three menu option" meals as well.

Geneva Hall is a country meeting hall. It is all wood. Wood floors, walls, ceiling. Approximate dimensions are 30x60. There are approximately 50 metal fold-up chairs. There is a small raised stage in one corner. It is raised approximately 8". There is a kitchen and refrigerator. We could provide beverage services. We do have a nice patio on the lobby of the lodge; it is not covered.

Pictures of Geneva Hall added today, 3-17-08.

Quoting Eve-at-Bose<ref name="Eve" /> (referring to the site map above)
:There is a good variety of rooms and prices. For those who want to save money and go more rustic, there is #19 (Edelweiss) which has 8 bedrooms for $50 each. The A-Frames are so cute, and there are more apartment type accommodations. He said that you can take $20 off whatever rate you see on the site. Right now there is no one else booked there.

Update:
The rate is now '''$30 off''' whatever you see on the site. You must mention that you are with the Bose group.

:RV's are fine. He has a space with electric and water hook up, but not sewer.
