Hey all, long time lurker first time poster. Great info on here, btw, thanks.
I have the Artist, love it and now(after research) thinking about the Ve-8 pedal (for the guitar res and vocal harmony[maybe] amongst other things). So for the Loudbox Artist owners, just wondering if anyone has this setup and how its working. Thanks.

So I’ve had the VE-8 paired up with the Fishman for about a year now. Used it exclusively for practice only. Used line in connection with 1/4” plugs to both channels 1-2. Sound is clean and bright. There are so many different settings that are “individual” choices. The guitar settings are straight forward, vocal including enhancing and harmony is fairly good (you kinda need to sing on key), but I’m happy with it.

Now if I could find the key to livestream on Facebook I’d be set.
. What I ended up with for performance is JBL EON ONE which is very fine

That's a great combo for sure. I've owned and gigged with both those though not together.

Mike - what 'key' do you need to stream live? Lot's of posts here and the core group of the AGF Open Mic guys have done them all with great success, mostly.

Funny you should ask Methos....
I haven’t found anything that works for me on livestream.
In fact I’m beside myself trying to make something work. Just trying to get a combo to do Facebook live. Just got an IRig Stream which I thought would be the answer, but it doesn’t seem to like the EON ONE...or doesn’t have correct outputs for hooking up IRig Stream. Too much technology for this old guy. I was happy getting back up and playing and then the pandemic hit....bye bye open mics..
Rant over...sigh
