Wireless -> Pedaltrain Nano with tuner and Preamp/DI -> QSCk10.2 via DI -> FOH via DI pass through.
I can carry the whole rig plus plus a bass in one trip. Bloody brilliant.

....for the atomic amplifire?
I use a Matrix Q12. It was secondhand. It has square sides, so I can treat it like a combo on a guitar stand, or I can pole mount it. Both work for me, but I can’t put it on the floor like an angled monitor. It’s loud enough to compete with a 100w Marshall. When the switch broke I rang Robin at Matrix and he sent me a replacement that day free of charge.
Does it have 50hz to 20khz response? I hope not because live I kill everything below 250hz and above 3,500.
QSC k10.2 - much better
You can use 'real' guitar cabs for modelling; they just don't have the range of the FRFR units. However, many still do use em and I have found that my Zilla 1x12 (Neo Creamback) works well...
You just lose the variation between some amp models as the cab 'colours' the sound.
I am however thinking of a FRFR/PA cab - not least as Im playing piano/keys now as well, and live Id need some monitoring at least, if not backline (depending what can go through the main PA). Im not in a band with keys at present, but want to be ready for when I do.
I do like the QSC K series - and was contemplating the 12. Is the 10 worth a look? If it was just the AFX, the 10 would be OK - but Im thinking for the keys side as well.
Its always a bit of a gamble until you have it up loud in the room, but the sound quality, volume, size and weight all work well for me.
Don't know whether a dxr10 would have been as good for cheaper or not, or even a pair of the electro voices running in stereo.
