Re: Roland Street Cube



Well I have not looked that close yet on the Street Cube, but as with
all Roland products there is probably a good PDF manual to download
somewhere on their web page. Running a headphones output into a PA may
be a challenge because a normal headphones output is amplified to
drive a pair of headphones and that is not compatible with a line or
mic input of a mixer, stage-box or PA amp input. BTW, if you haven't
already googled it, here's a good review:
