Attached is a guide | You need the mini type B, the 2nd one from the left. It should be a regular USB connector at the other end though. I think one comes with the amp, though.

Things were rattling but I thought all was good. Then I went upstairs and a glass vase was shattered on the floor.
When my wife came back from shopping afterwards:
"Looks like the shelf somehow shifted, honey. No worries though since I cleaned it up."  |

I know a lot of people like them, you included.
All other things being equal, 100lbs vs 35lbs 
I've said before that I really don't like harboring brand snobbery bias. It's usually not rational, but the association in my mind with Acoustic is as a "store brand" (Music & Arts Center in this area). I didn't have any real knowledge of the brand in its heyday. |

I got it mainly for the small footprint and light weight to play in some of the smaller rooms that my band plays. Since then it has been the only set up that I have used. Indoor, outdoor, whatever. I probably would not go with this on a larger outdoor stage, but for beer gardens, etc. it's perfect. My set-up and tear down is about 10 minutes now and it sounds great! I will use it in March in a orchestra pit situation, it should be great in that application as well! These things are fantastic! |

You seem to be in the know on some things. Any ideas if they will be adding any of the bass delays to the 250?

Seriously, if you ever got that impression, it might have been something I said based on having a friendly relationship with a distributor. I don't know anything "inside."
Having said that, I'm not stepping down! Du måste bända presidentvalet USB-kabeln från mina kalla, döda händer!!! |

Du har mitt fulla stöd. Om behöver vara, jag wiil biamp två smeder och flera 4/10 med tubedive på max och befälhavaren på 11 att hålla revolten händer!

Guitarist says turn down the bass shouldn't be heard that much. It's nothing but a support instrument. Me instantly turning the knob to 11.

Now I just fell I love with and ordered a source audio BEF. What I'm wondering is, without a effects loop, how will say spectracomp toneprint work after the effect input?
