Man, the T1 really saved me during a rehearsal. I needed to plug in my guitar to hear the effects when not using a L Model II. It worked very well. I plugged in the PRS McCarthy, a Beta58A, and a Radio Shack mic and ran them through the T1 and a Roland Jazz Chorus 120 guitar amp.

Now, it didn't sound any where near as good as with a LI or LII, but it served its purpose. There were no glitches, since I was able to use the high gain mic for the Radio Shack mic.

The small mixer does well as a solo act. I thank you again, since the T1 is lighter than the Alesis 4 input.

Hi Jazbo
I'm glad to hear it works well in that situation. I am hoping to try this in the studio when my T1 arrives. When you ordered your T1/2 L1MII did you order the T1 power supply or did it come with?
Rick

Oh. Reading the manual I see that you don’t need the power adaptor you can power the T1 with the USB port from a computer.
Is that what you did?

Hi Rick,

I'm reading page 2 in the manual a little differently I think.

quote:

The T1 ToneMatchTM audio engine can be used with a Bose® L1TM model II or model I system. For convenient
access, you can mount the T1 on a Cylindrical Radiator® loudspeaker or on a microphone stand using the optional
microphone stand bracket. When used with the L1TM model II system, the T1 operates on DC power received from
the power stand. The optional T1 ToneMatchTM audio engine power supply is used to power the T1 when it is connected
to an L1TM model I system or a USB port on your computer.

It looks like we *must* have the Power Supply to use th USB port.

ie. no power from the port.

Thanks ST
I was just about to delete that message. You are right. I misread that piece. My apologies.

Hi Rick.

I misread it twice the first and second times I read the manual.

No need to apologize.

It is a good question - and I will be adding it to the T1™ FAQ page.
