I have had the same issue with my phone. It seemed to be an issue with my case. Once I remove the case from my phone that helped somewhat. The other thing I have had to do was unpair it. Then connect with the tone app when it is unpaired.

I'm having a problem with a laptop so no case to remove. I haven't tried to connect to the Rumble with my phone. Maybe I'll try that and see if the issue is there also.

Thanks for the club number, GD! Membership has its privileges! I'll post a photo shortly.
Time to order a 115!
With that stack, I think I should add an Auralex GRAMMA v2 to the order. I've been wanting to get my 200C off the floor.

Would this be the video you referenced? Good one!I like the idea of waiting on a used 200C. You can still chain the 200C into the 100C as well giving you a 240 watt 115+112 rig. Might be a bit of work volume leveling both amps but it'd be thunderous I bet!
I didn't go for a 500C because I like just bringing the amp head, my pedals, and my bass back and forth from practice. Super light to carry. Besides I can't use speakers at home to rock out 97% of the time.
The Stage 800 is a pretty wicked end-game rig itself though. All the pedals, amp models, and watts you could want with the ability to run 2 extension cabs. Really though if your Rumble is loud enough it's good. Don't matter which model.
On a side note, whenever the Andertons YouTube channel uses one of these amps in a video they take a minute to gush over how good it is. I always find that bit funny because I've never noticed them do it with any other rig behind them.
I'm not much for fanboyism but damn these amps really make me feel like one.

Question re the compression horns...
When stacking a 200c on a 115, is it recommended to switch off one of the compression horns? If so, I'm going to guess it's the top one in the 200C, since high frequencies disperse up.

Yes you should! That was some of the best money I ever spent.
That's a really good question. The horns in the combos are strictly off or on. The 'on' position is a -6dB. On the 115 cabinet you have: off; -6dB, and (full)on. I would run the combo on, and cab at a matching -6dB. In my years of playing the Rumble 200 combo I've experimented extensively with both on and off. I like on better. Not for additional highs, but because it presents a slightly larger overall sound at any volume. Even low 'bedroom' volume. Let your own ears be your judge.

There's no right or wrong answer. It is simply like or dislike. Plus there is like for this tune and dislike for another. Same as one piece requires a flatwound Precision with a specific EQ setting while another requires a roundwound strung Jazz with a different yet still specific EQ setting. We are in constant motion. The Earth rotates on it's axis while we hurtle though space as we orbit the Sun. The electrons in our own bodily atomic construction are moving at very nearly the speed of light. Yet I think I am sitting still at the keyboard of my laptop computer. Our perception of reality is often deceptive. I celebrate the subjectivity of art. Life's more fun that way.Like many other times in my life, I guessed wrong.
Nope. It's every video I've seen them do where a Rumble is behind Lee. They always stop and point out how good it sounds. I just find it kinda neat, especially when the more expensive amps don't get shout outs.
^^^That's an astute observation^^^ It's not like they don't have more expensive bass amps, because they do. Much more expensive. The Fender Rumbles sound better. A BIG Huge Massive plus is the fact that they are recording straight from the XLR output. Yep. The very same one that the haters & uninitiated roundly poo-poo as not good enough and unusable. Well we know better, don't we, and the evidence is out there for all to hear if their minds weren't so tightly closed shut.It's every video I've seen them do where a Rumble is behind Lee.

I don’t often use the tone app on my iPhone with my Studio 40, but I do like to use the Studio 40 as a Bluetooth speaker. I often find that the amp and the phone will not reconnect after the amp has been off.
One thing I have learned to do is WAIT. I used to try to go into the phone settings to try to get the phone to reconnect with the amp. I think that almost never works. What I do now is wait a couple minutes after the amp boots up, and often I am pleasantly surprised that the amp has reconnected with the phone.
Patience is a virtue you need to acquire. That's why hunting and fishing are such good skills to be taught as a small boy. Attentive patience will feed you. The impatient will starve.But I'm such an impatient boy!

They are looking for a bass player. Were I not gigging regularly, I'd post for the spot.

It'd be even better if the bass player's (in the video) Rumble came with!
Seems like I've noticed some Stage & Studio owners mentioning that they have to turn off Bluetooth to get the Tone App working via wifi. Is this true for everyone? Do some of you get the Tone App working with Bluetooth?
Ps: I'm not a Stage or Studio owner, . . . yet, just very interested in understanding them.
I can't run the Tone app (android level challenged) but if I remember right, you can't run both at the same time.
