    Default Wireless question?

    Is there any reason that I couldn't run a separate wireless transmitter (other than the one that takes care of my guitar to pedalboard) from my pedalboard to my amp?
    I know it's a bit anal, but I do like the idea of getting rid of the last bit of mucky muck.

    No reason at all, as long as it's on a different frequency to the guitar-to-board one; apart from the fact that it's EXTREMELY anal

    Depending on how much headroom the transmitter has, I guess there'd be a chance of overloading it if you're using volume boosts?

    Wires are a lot more reliable than this wireless trickery.

    Surely you're going to need a power cable to the pedalboard anyway? In which case why bother with wireless?

    Becouse I can get power at the front of the stage without having to run a line back to my amp.

    Oh, I use wireless 240v power to my pp2+. Got it from a website, can't remember the name.

    Why don't you just rack-mount your pedals and get everything right out of the way.


    Of course you'll need a MIDI Foor Controller, but at least it is only one lead/harness.
