Many thanks for the replies everyone. Very helpful!

Let's say I have a personal PA system that I rehearse with at home and I want to use the on board effects on my mixer (e.g., reverb, delay, etc) for a live performance at a venue where they already have an in house PA system. Can I still send my vocals mic to my personal mixer where I apply...

Thanks, very helpful. I know very little about vocal processors. Are you saying that the processor you suggested will have better quality effects than the Yamaha mixers (e.g., the hall reverb on the Yamaha will be worse quality than the hall reverb on the vocal processor)?... or are you saying...

Thanks Rob. Yeah, as just mentioned in reply to Boulder... I will likely just use it with the Samson for a while and see how that goes. Then when I can manage I can just bite the bullet as you say.

Thanks a lot. Makes sense. Yeah, I also share your concern. I will likely just use it with the Samson for a while and see how that goes.

Hi again Rob and Boulder... I just wanted to follow up on this thread to ask another related question. Let's forget about the Samson and focus on a different possible scenario... So again, let's say I have the StagePas PA system, and let's say that 3 of the 4 channels with mic inputs on the...

I own a Yamaha StagePas 600i PA system. The mixer for the system comes with four on board effects, all labeled as types of reverb (Hall, Room, Plate, and Echo). In my experience echo is typically is synonymous with delay, which would be good because I'd like both reverb and delay. The thing is...

Thanks, all good Dave, no worries. Understood all I wanted to know :)

Thanks. I prefer the reverb that's on the mixer to any of the ones I have in the DAW - I've gotten used to singing with it, and it also sounds better than the ones I currently have in the DAW.

Thanks. I was just asking about for rehearsal... but good to know it can work for a gig too. I'm not sure what Ts up means, but I take it that's just some sort of crashing of the laptop. With the A/B pedal I take it you're saying after the vocal mike feeds into the mixer, then at the next step...

When I rehearse vocals I use a PA system (specifically, powered mixer into speakers), and I will typically use the reverb effect on my mixer for my vocals. For future rehearsals I want to have the option of additionally using some effects plugins I have in my DAW (e.g., delay and chorus) for my...

Thank you for the reply. Some of the technical stuff over my head, but I think I got the important bits. Good to know it shouldn't screw with tone outside of not minimizing hum as much and things of that nature.

Thank you, makes sense.

Thanks. I see; so it's not a functionality issue (i.e., the amp isn't going to sound worse just replacing one or two at a time) - it's actually practical to replace them all at once when one goes. I was just worried that somehow the amp won't sound as good if replacing one or two at a time...

I have a fender deluxe reverb reissue (tube) amplifier. Some months ago I replaced maybe 3-4 of the tubes because they were starting to cause issues - though I no longer remember which ones I replaced. I think I replaced them with the same tube models (though it's possible one of the...
