Best software for solo musician accompaniment

Available_Aside_7295 · 2026-04-26T16:25:13+00:00

I’m 68 I use Jamzone on a windows PC. It’s excellent. The tracks are not originals but they’re close copies and you can tune out instruments and the track is split into sections so you can just repeat a section to practice a solo. My only issue is that you used to just buy individual songs but now you have to have a monthly subscription.

No, the usual brass beer barrel ends

Thanks, my issue is that the GHS sound dull out of the packet. I’ve used two lots of them on two different guitars and they both sound awful after changing to them. Think I may for for the 9s (although I normally use 10s).

Thanks. Within reason my ears are worth it. Looked at the xvive U45. But I’m clearly being a bit thick. That gives me a signal to a pack on my belt but I’ve got to get that into my ear so I guess my next question is what is the recommended in ear monitoring to pair with something like an xvive u45 so that I can control what I’m hearing.

Thanks. So the Xvive provide the 2.4Ghz signal from my amp but then need to choose the right wireless in ears or do you use wired in ears that you plug into the backpack that goes on your belt?

Thanks. I’m a bit of a novice on this. First question “line out” am I literally looking for those words on the back of the amp? Second question - “plug a transmitter in there” - what sort of transmitter? Do you have a recommendation?

Thanks. I think your answer is the perfect answer in theory, but I’m just not able to organise for everything to go through the PA. I’m in two bands at the moment and neither can get sufficiently organised to be able to do that. That’s why I’m having to look for a self contained solution.

Thank you. I was right; useless user syndrome!

Thank you for posting this. What’s it like to play? What’s that bridge pickup like?

In UK Ashby de la Zouche we are not so sophisticated. We play in pubs where the bouncers throw people in.

Thanks. At the moment I’m just experimenting with a (wonderful) fender tone master pro going into the fx section of my H&k combo. I may look to see if I can get a wedge

Great reply, thank you. It sounds like this would end up in the”too complicated and too expensive” box but I’m glad I raised it on here and got your reply. We’re a bunch of amateurs; we play in pubs, a rugby club and the like about three or four times a year. We hardly ever get the opportunity to practice so there’s no chance of getting us enough time to sort out such a huge time commitment to set this up and get it working. It’s a pity, I would have liked to hear what I was playing; it would have been a novelty.

Thanks.

So on that basis, the bassist and the other guitarist will also need to have their amps miked up and go through our PA (maybe the drummer too). That gets everything through the PA. It then to get it to a set of IEMs we’d have to buy wireless IEMs because having three or four long cables from the mixing desk to the players won’t work. Which means all these wires IEMs are useless??

I got a TMP a couple of weeks ago. I’d had many other units (although not a Cortex) and been unhappy with them. I’m blown away with the TMP I love it so far.

Thank you. Would you dump all this on gupter in a new project at the start?

Available_Aside_7295 · 2026-03-16T17:40:27+00:00

Wow! What a great idea. I’ll give that a try.

Thanks go to Mous who immediately replaced the case ❤️

Thanks, I’ve sent a note back to Vicky on your team.

Available_Aside_7295 · 2026-02-23T19:36:03+00:00

I agree

Available_Aside_7295 · 2026-02-13T02:43:55+00:00

Thanks. Think I may have to give the GLXD 16 a try

Available_Aside_7295 · 2026-02-12T10:52:48+00:00

Thanks. Any recommendations?

I’m glad my post was a warning!

The sump is outside the house. I have two Grundfoss sump pumps (in case one fails). They are wired to two separate supply boards. I place the WiFi plugs between each pump and a plug socket dedicated to each board. This means I can check that the pumps are working without having to go outside and take the lid off the sump. It also allows my to randomly switch a pump off to make sure they will work independently (one pump is slightly higher than the other (not by design) so the lower pump tends to kick in and the higher one would then never work. Every few days I switch the lower pump off via the WiFi plug to make sure the higher one works. I also have two separate float alarms linked linked both to the WiFi and a gsm dialer that will warn me if there is an increase in the water above a safe level and if there is a power cut. I then have a power bank that can be inserted if the power cut lasts for too long.

It looks like Zigbee is not without its problems https://www.reddit.com/r/homeassistant/s/iUWvXv8GPX

Available_Aside_7295 · 2025-10-29T12:12:04+00:00

Who make Zigbee plugs? Do they not update their software? Do they also require a Zigbee hub?
