Spider IV 

LINE 6 LAUNCHES SPIDER® IV GUITAR AMPLIFIERS

—Over 250 artist-created presets, total versatility and incredible value for guitarists of all styles—

CALABASAS, Calif.—August 14, 2009—Line 6, Inc. (line6.com), the industry leader in digital modeling technology for music creation products, announced today the launch of Spider IV, the company’s latest line of modeling amplifiers for guitarists.  The new amplifier line includes many fresh features, innovations and updated highlights from its best-selling and award-winning predecessor, Spider III.


“Spider IV amplifiers are feature-packed with new artist-created presets and amp models, gorgeous new effects, FBV™ foot controller compatibility, and so much more,” remarks Aaron Suplizio, product marketing manager, Line 6.  “These amplifiers are perfect for guitarists who want artist-quality tones and effects, and complete versatility at a great value.”

 

The new amplifier line is well-rounded with five flexible combos and a powerful head.  The four flagship amplifiers, including 75-, 120-, and 150-watt combos and a 150-watt head, feature over 350 new and re-mastered artist-created and song-based presets professionally dialed in by many world-famous guitarists.  The presets range from jangly cleans and scorching distortions to swirly, effect-laden tones, and they provide guitarists of all styles with access to the tones of their heroes.

These amplifiers also come complete with 16 rich-sounding amp models and 20 brilliant on-board Smart FX.  The amp models, inspired by the most celebrated modern and vintage guitar amplifiers from both sides of the Atlantic, provide the next generation in Line 6 amp tone. 

The on-board effects provide players with a complete palette of colors and textures, including a collection of beautiful delays, echoes and mods, a dedicated reverb, a brand-new and astonishingly responsive intelligent pitch-shifter, a built-in looper, and more.  Four effects can be used simultaneously and edited completely to create the perfect sonic landscape.


The 15-watt Spider IV combo features four amp models and six Smart FX (two effects simultaneously); the 30-watt Spider IV combo features 12 amp models and seven Smart FX (three effects simultaneously).

Each Spider IV preset, amp model and effect exceeds the renowned Line 6 standard of sound quality.  Every aspect of the tone, from the guitar input to the three-quarter closed-back cabinet and Celestion® speakers, delivers exceptional definition, clarity and feel.

 

Spider IV amplifiers can dramatically expand their sonic capabilities with the addition of a Line 6 foot controller, including FBV Shortboard™ MkII, FBV Express™ MkII and FBV2™. These powerful and durable foot controllers can deliver everything from wah-wah, pitch-shift and volume control, to tap tempo, a chromatic tuner display and simple channel switching.

Vinny P.I. - Relay G30 Wireless InVettagation... 09-08-2009

Relay G30, the newest digital wireless system from Line 6. Does it compete with what Line 6 claims it does? Here's my review or Product InVettagation if you will, on this new digital wireless system. It seems to have new features and comes at the lowest pricelevel for a complete digital system that uses the 2,4 GHz frequency. This InVettagation includes some soundsamples and videos to give your eyes and ears some extra info. Based on the infoyou can make up your own mind to gain some extra wireless freedom without the loss of 'tone'...or not.

Wired Tone, Wireless Freedom
Since I opened the unit that came in a "Line 6 red" box printed with "Wired Tone, Wireless freedom". Whell I can say after spending some time in different environments with it that that's true. It has the cables tone (of course this depends on what cable quality you're using now) or maybe even better. Normally I'm using a flexible, copper free coaxial cable with length of 5 meters with neutrik jack connectors. When I used the Relay G30 for the first time I noticed that I had more clarity from my guitar. Their first claim as to wired tone, wireless freedom isn't overstated, in my case and opninion it's true! Of course the wireless freedom is instantly there, but that's the case with all wireless systems.

The package
The complete package is far bigger then the content, but it's all there, the reciever (RXS06) that's just a small as a typical stompbox, the transmitter (TBP06) which is just a tiny bit more then half of the reciever. It comes with a liitle metal strip that you can 'clip' onto the transmitter in horizontal or vertical manner. This is convinient to place it on your guitarstrap the way you want to. The package includes the batteries for the transmitter and a powersupply for the reciever.
