Compact monitoring solution
Rockboard is best known for its smart solutions for pedalboards, but the German company's range goes well beyond the needs of pedal fans. The RockBoard HA 1 In-Ear Amplifier, for instance, provides musicians with a flexible and compact means of listening to their monitoring signal via in-ear headphones. The headphone amplifier, which measures 14cm in length, runs on two batteries, allowing it to be operated wirelessly, while the combo socket enables a variety of signal inputs, from both XLR and 6.3mm jack cables. A volume control, headphone output, and mono/stereo switch are located at the opposite end of the amplifier, enabling individual and reliable signal monitoring.
Flexible connectivity
An XLR/jack combo socket, which can be used to connect a signal via an XLR or 6.3mm jack cable, is built into the bottom end of the amplifier and comes complete with a metal push tab for the XLR cable to ensure a secure connection. The two controls, the headphone output, and a battery level LED are located at the opposite end. The volume control is blue, making it easy to read even on darker stages. The RockBoard HA 1 In-Ear Amplifier can be switched to mono when used with a mono source, such as the AUX send of a mixing console, and can be used with any in-ear model courtesy of its standard 3.5mm headphone output, which also exhibits a particularly low impedance of less than 0.1 ohms.
Volume adjustment in easy reach
The RockBoard HA 1 In-Ear Amplifier provides a simple solution for all musicians and singers who are looking to hear their music and vocals clearly, as well as a convenient way of monitoring mono mixes via the AUX send of a mixing console or for monitoring stereo signals. For added convenience and practicality, the headphone amplifier also comes with a sturdy belt clip for fixing to a belt or waistband, enabling the musician to adjust the volume at will – this is made even easier by the upward-pointing volume control. The HA 1 requires no further wires beyond the input itself, as it will run on two AAA batteries (not included) for up to 12 hours, ensuring even greater freedom of movement on stage.
About RockBoard
RockBoard is part of the Warwick group, which is based in Markneukirchen in Germany's Vogtland region. RockBoard's range focuses on pedalboards, which are available in numerous different designs to suit any application and budget. They are complemented by an extensive range of accessories, from slick patchbays for expanding the boards and high-quality patch cables for loss-free connection through to high-performance power adapters and the QuickMount system for rapid effect changes. In short, RockBoard offers virtually everything that players need to easily set up their own individual pedalboard.
Versatility at its finest
A monitor mix can be created in stereo using an external mixing console and outputted to the compact RockBoard HA 1 In-Ear Amplifier via an unbalanced XLR connection, or created in mono and outputted using an AUX send via a balanced XLR connection. Users also have the option of connecting a mono signal directly to the RockBoard HA 1 In-Ear Amplifier via the 6.3mm jack using the "thru" output of an electronic musical instrument such as a keyboard, digital piano, or synthesizer, for example. An XLR splitter, which is available as an optional extra, can also be used to split the signal from a singer's microphone, allowing one signal to reach the RockBoard HA 1 In-Ear Amplifier for direct in-ear monitoring by the singer without effects, while the other is directed to the FOH mixing console. Two AAA batteries are required for operation, and the RockBoard HA 1 In-Ear Amplifier is also compatible with rechargeable batteries.
