Gigged again with the 4X on Friday...assisted living...older seniors. Again I was very pleased with the sound and operation of the board....used my Bose Compacts.

I played about 70 minutes and when I stopped; no one left their seats and the place was full. The asked me to do an encore which I did.

Got a ton of compliments on the sound.

I definitely want a PA 4X.


However, I'm still entangled in this Sweetwater card mess. Hope to get it resolved next week or the 4X may have to go back to Sweetwater.

Update on Sweetwater. Called their customer service dept and Sweetwater card issues were resolved in a matter of days. Customer service very helpful. My(former) sales rep, not so much.

In any case, I gave my PA 4X a permanent place in my music room. It is an excellent keyboard.

Played my 3rd gig with the 4X and SSV.3. Small crowd and small room...senior living place..I'm a regular there. I was mostly pleased with the sound and got compliments on sound although I will say that room is a bit tricky to EQ.

I have used the S970/SSV.3 combo successfully a number of times in this setting.

I really like the MAXX EQ system on the 4X and had to fiddle with the MAXX system a bit to get the 4X/SSV.3 combo sounding decent in this small room...barely used the width function on the SSV.3.

So far I've liked the 4X/Bose combo better but I used that combo in much larger rooms...not quite an apples to apples comparison.

For me, that MAXX system on the 4X is a treat...closest thing I've used to EQ controls on a recording deck.
