The ipad app can have easy mode with simple EQ and one-knob compressor on each channel or full parametrics, low cut, high shelf...
Can you comment on the horizontal spread? The French magazine said the HK was better than the 1st eon one. |
I am using the app in expert mode. It is awesome to be able to dial in tone without external devices. It really does make it an all in one simply because of the eq options. No pedals needed to fix gain issues or to find the right EQ. I could definitely show up with just my guitar, my mic, and the Nano 608i and be set.
Both the One Pro and Nano 608i filled the rooms I played in. I didn't focus on the spread as much as I focused on the sound and the abilities of the mixer to create the sound I was looking for, though I can say that when walking around the room I didn't feel that I was losing anything on the edges. The only place I noticed a difference is when getting closer to the full towers you lose the fullness because the sub is at your feet and the tops are above your head - which if you lower the towers both devices can overcome this for a closer audience. So no definitive answer for horizontal spread.

I personally play acoustic guitar and also backing guitar with electric guitar. External effects are in use with Boss VE-8 and Mooer 100 Multiefect. The show usually has 10 to 80 people and the genre is folk / blues. It would be very interesting to use battery power. Now I have HK Audio Lukas nano 300 which works fine.
The JBL Eon One Pro will arrive here in Europe one month later. I've already ordered it. Hopefully, despite the negative feedback, the device works.

Well, I'm only one opinion and I would take it as that until more reviews come in. I think the sound of the One Pro is good though the bass is not as tight as I would have liked. This was the same with the One, though I think the One Pro is worse. If you do not have to rely on the mixer for gain or EQ and you need a battery then the One Pro will work out for you. It isn't a complete fail.
Another option, if you are wary of the One Pro, is to look into a battery solution for the Nano 300. I saw a YouTube video of a busker who was using a GolfBuddy battery to power her Bose Compact and a Mic Mechanic pedal.

So just to make sure I am understanding correctly, you sent back the JBL after receiving the HK and comparing directly side by side Yes?

I did not compare them side-by-side. I don't like to hold on to stuff I'm supposed to return because of Murphy's law. I did keep the One Pro an extra day to play it in different places in my home to see how it sounded. I played in those same places 4 days later with the Nano 608i. While I can't say I have the best memory, I have been playing in my home for a long while and I remember what I like and don't like. The biggest difference was the mixer which I didn't need a side-by-side for that. The differences in the subs were clear as day even 4 days later. I found both to have very good, clear tops.
The draw of the One Pro is the all-in-one system and the battery. Again if you do not rely on the One Pro's mixer for gain and EQ and you need/want a battery then it should work out. The two I received from the same seller has some high pitched noises which I couldn't overlook. This may not be the case with all of the One Pros.
