Great to know of this gear as a viable option, Scott. I ran sound for a wedding this past weekend with a similar situation. Band was located in the ballroom, and ceremony was elsewhere on the property needing us to set up a stand-alone system separate from the ballroom. Long story short, watching your past videos motivated me to purchase a number of good, reasonably priced 5.8 gighz guitar wireless pods that we set up to get 2 channels on the ceremony sound system connected. Worked out great! Thanks for the continuing to keep us educated.
Nice! Glad to know it’s working! I would just make sure those are reliable wireless. I’m not sure which ones you used, but the 5.8ghz stuff are usually cheaper, so that’s why I mentioned it. Line of sight helps a lot! Cheers, glad you found it helpful 🤘
@ScottUhlMusic would this be a good alternative for me to run my multi effects unit? Playing guitar at home, instead of using a headrush FRFR, I can use this?
I am so amazed at the gear you know. You remind me of someone who runs sound....Thank you for this video....I had a battery powered PA once. I did small gigs and not having to worry about a socket in the right location was a plus plus plus....
This looks like a great product. I ran sound for a wedding in a park where they forgot to unlock the power on the gazebo. Luckily I had a couple of 100 ft cords to run power to a neighbor’s house. I’ve also had to use a generator 150’ away for a wedding in a big park with no power available. Fortunately it was an afternoon event, and i knew ahead of time. I always carry trash bags for outdoor events.
Broooo I would love to sit down and have a full on interview with you on the grounds that I’m just now getting into live electronics and backing tracks. I’ve been doing electronic music my entire life but normally I would front the band and never been a DJ or the electronics guy in a live setting. I just recently joined a project doing the programming and I will also be doing the live synthesizers and backing tracks and I just have so many questions. For example, if I had three midi controllers and a launchpad all running into different software synthesizers how can I change them Mid song and or in between songs without loading up an entire different project? I have so many questions.

I really don’t like when people leave negative reviews for gear when they don’t even try to figure out what they did to influence a bad outcome. I find that 3 and 4 star reviews is where you find out the truth and usually a fix. And never cheap out on backpacking equipment or gig gear 😎

Thanks man! Some of these shows I’ve done I’ve brought 3 new pieces of gear to try out lol. It can be a bit much sometimes. Tomorrow I told myself JUST to bring the new PA and that’s it lol, otherwise it’s too much to try at once.
Replay!!! Great video Scott!! Very thorough as always! Great minds think alike when it comes to micing officiants. I love using headsets over lavs because of when they get out of the pickup pattern and harder to control unless you have a digital board with perimetric capabilities. There are very few people I know that bought the weather resistant bag and I would leave it on all the time. I would do a custom bag with a zippered pocket for cables and able to keep the shelf mounted. Also, you have all you need to run wireless speakers if needed with the slxd portable system and mixer. All the gear you already own used for more things!!
As always very informative video. one quick question.. I noticed that you are basically setuping in a mono scenario how do these speakers perform when you are setting up a stereo setup? I suppose you have to run a cable from one speaker to the next but is there a wireless way to do so?
Yeah I just do it in mono. You can always do wireless from a mixer into two separate stereo systems. I did a review on a system that does that here: ruclips.net/video/tM4ndTdGfos/видео.html
Hi Scott. I was wondering which is the best sounding PA system you've used and by how much. Like, you could find one system's sound to be great but the features of another way better but the sound ain't the best but still great. I guess what I'm saying is that I have a limited amount of money and I can only buy one PA, I don't wanna regret my decision in 3 months. This EV PA seems awesome, but it would be nice to have your opinion. (I'm a singer and guitarist and would like to use the PA for small events or busking and might play with a drummer and keys). Although I'm not sure you'll read this. I really love your channel and the reviews and how far you go to pack the whole video with the useful information after personal use which no one else does. Anyone could read the features on the website we don't need a video about that. But you use it personally and give your insights which would actually be important for the buyer and you do it for so many products. I don't usually comment so I thought I'll go off on my appreciation for your work all at once here. lol. You deserve a million subscribers at least, honestly. Love you man. . If you're reading this, I think it would make an awesome video for you to rank gear in a tier list. With all the products you've reviewed, that video would be insane. Mics, in ears, PAs, wireless systems, etc.
I actually answer “which is the best sounding PA” in this video…. And why it’s not actually that important: Why TONE Isn't My Top Priority as a LIVE MUSICIAN ruclips.net/video/elAiYDYyWQY/видео.html
excellent video. I watch most of your video reviews and they are excellent. Great job. I'm a DJ as well and have the everse 8. You are 100% correct when you mentioned that it is a perfect set up for wedding ceremonies and cocktail hour. I just picked up the the Shure SLXD15 which was extremely helpful as I recently had to do a beach wedding ceremony. I've not used the EV RE3 mic receiver, but prior to the SLXD15, I've would use a pair of Shure ULXD4 mic receivers in a small rack with a ULXD1 body pack and/or or a Shure beta 58 for readings during a ceremony. Do you find the mic quality with the EV RE3 is comparable to the Shure ULXD or even SLXD ?
Nice!! ULXD is an even better system for sure, that’s a fantastic option! I do like the RE3. It sounds fantastic for speeches with the EVERSE, which is why I like it. But if you already have a ULXD, you are set 🤘
You could use a 12 volt lithiumm battery through a pure sine wave inverter to run most PA gear if its not too electric power hungry. Especially as battery pa gear tends to be more expensive and often awkward to swap bstteries over and you maybe able to use the gear you already have.
@@ScottUhlMusic Lipo4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) Power Stations is the go to. OP has a decent point about the batteries eventually running out in the speakers and needing to be replaced (they use the same exact batteries). That way you can bring the battery wherever the application you need is, speaker or otherwise. Regardless. Top notch video as always, 1 or 2 battery powered speakers are still the easiest way to deploy a quick audio solution so kudos on the video.
Another excellent and informative video! A quick question, if I may, about the EV Evolve 50s you mentioned that you use with your band. How do you find those column array speakers with a live band compared to the usual point source speakers? I have been looking at a pair dB Technologies ES802 column arrays myself. The general consensus is that column arrays aren't as good for live bands and it is quite difficult to test and compare them. And most RUclips videos are about how they work for DJs. Thanks for reading my essay 🙂
Thanks! And my singer in my 90s band doesn’t like them, so he brings his 2 18” subs and tops. Which does sound bigger (especially that low end obviously). But man, having a “thin sounding kick drum” is worth it to me for the simplicity of the setup. I’m always interested in things that get the job done and also make my life easier. So I use them, and they work well! But I know they won’t be for everyone.
@@ScottUhlMusic Thanks man! Very helpful reply. I suspected as much. May have to stick to point source but also need it to fit in my car with my guitar gear as well 😂
The daisy-chain power output is certainly a key feature. What's the point of powered speakers when you have to run separate power for your receiver? Great drop-in solution...
Thanks Scott. What is the best social media platform to contact you on to say "Hey, have you seen this product? Or ask a question not relevant to the video?"
For ceremony, I am currently running 1 Jackery 1000, 2 JBL Eon One Compact, 2 Shure Qlxd Receivers, 1 Alpha-Theta Omnis Duo and last but not least 1 Sennheiser IEM G4
@@ScottUhlMusic I hope Jackery is paying attention to us wedding DJ’s and come out with a jackery that is really user friendly for us. I know that we are not their key demographic but still, there are a lot of DJ’s using jackerys
Scott, we’ve been using 2x JBL EON One Compacts for wedding celebrants. They do seem to lack power. From what I’ve heard the Evolve 8’s a quite a bit louder. Do you think 2 Evolve 8’s would be suitable for 250 people outdoors? I’m reluctant to use 1 Evolve 12 due to coverage / dispersion.
Just look in at battery PA speakers so in the learning phase. Can these be daisy chained wirelessly? Is there such a thing as a battery powered wireless sub?
I’m checking out the “Death from Below” sub which is battery powered but only works with a SKAA wireless. You can daisy chain these with a wireless system, yes, but that’s not included 👍
Thanks! And I haven’t really done a test with it, so I would need to try. But the 8 gets very loud with just music, where as using it with a mic and actual instruments needs to have more power in my experience. That’s why I like the 8 for cocktail hour and 12 for ceremony personally
@@ScottUhlMusic A comparison video EV12 vs EV8 would be the first on the web! My application is only music and I use a sub, so maybe I don't need to upgrade??
Scott, you put a lot of emphasis on not going cheap for your wireless gear for weddings. So would you say Phenyx Pro Mics are not the best for wedding ceremonies?
Phenyx pro makes some great budget friendly systems that do work well and I’ve used before. But a good digital system, with antenna diversity, more than 40Mhz tuning bandwidth, and a way to set the RF strength from low to high is important imo
I don’t like how the setup looks with the receiver on top of the speaker and the cables all exposed . I would recommend a wireless antenna Distro. You can connect multiple microphones and have them use the same antenna, plus it amplifies your signal. I definitely would use an external mixer every time. A good 1000W power block can handle your power needs. I like the Alpha theta wave 8’ wireless speakers. Their Sonic Link technology has less delay than bluetooth. 👍
I do need shorter cables, I agree. But I do not need antenna distribution with just two wireless 👍 I’m sticking with this setup because it’s amazing, but Sounds like another great option though, thanks for sharing!
Scott, what would you think about using the 8s (or 12s) as stage monitors? I'm also a Colorado mountain guy and have been getting more requests to do remote live music with 3-4pc bands. I have a Honda ultra quiet generator and will be ordering a 2kw power station soon.. but if I could lessen the load while also having the utility of using them standalone at other gigs, that would be sweet. Ideally I'd like to get something like the EV PXM12M that are built to purpose but versatility wins on a limited budget. Thanks for another great video!
check out the Wave 8 as I always use two speaks for my ceremonies and 2 to 3 wireless mics. The Wave 8 is IP rated for rain and sounds great. Running with two QLDX lapel mics makes a solid Ceremoy system.
Would you say the everse 12 is significantly louder than the 8? I currently use a pair of everse 8’s and a 12 inch ev sub. Was thinking of upgrading the 8’s for the 12’s but don’t know if it would be worth it.
If you already have a sub, I think you are already doing well. There's not a HUGE change in the 12. It's there, but it's not a massive change. If what you have is working, I think you can stick with the 8 :)
Are you hearing hiss noise from everse 8? When i turn on the everse 8 without any connection to the speaker I'm hearing a hiss noise (White noise) from the everse 8, Is that noise normal for a speaker or need repair?.
One think, why do you always place the PA behind the audience? That would drive me crazy while speaking. Speakers muss stand in front or right behind of the speaker, where the voice comes from?!
Dude…. No kidding lol! It’s not always the bride, sometimes it’s the planner or a parent of one of the bride/groom, but it’s always “we are just gonna hope for the best” haha. Most people I work with are good… but man those few stick with you!

Can these be daisy chained wirelessly?
Is there such a thing as a battery powered wireless sub?
I’m checking out the “Death from Below” sub which is battery powered but only works with a SKAA wireless.
You can daisy chain these with a wireless system, yes, but that’s not included 👍
Great job. I have the Everse 8. How much volume gain and bass output can I expect going with the 12?
Thanks! And I haven’t really done a test with it, so I would need to try. But the 8 gets very loud with just music, where as using it with a mic and actual instruments needs to have more power in my experience. That’s why I like the 8 for cocktail hour and 12 for ceremony personally
@@ScottUhlMusic A comparison video EV12 vs EV8 would be the first on the web! My application is only music and I use a sub, so maybe I don't need to upgrade??
@@WWeiss-nv5vz Yeah, in that case I think you are great with the 8!
Scott, you put a lot of emphasis on not going cheap for your wireless gear for weddings. So would you say Phenyx Pro Mics are not the best for wedding ceremonies?
Phenyx pro makes some great budget friendly systems that do work well and I’ve used before. But a good digital system, with antenna diversity, more than 40Mhz tuning bandwidth, and a way to set the RF strength from low to high is important imo
I don’t like how the setup looks with the receiver on top of the speaker and the cables all exposed . I would recommend a wireless antenna Distro. You can connect multiple microphones and have them use the same antenna, plus it amplifies your signal. I definitely would use an external mixer every time. A good 1000W power block can handle your power needs. I like the Alpha theta wave 8’ wireless speakers. Their Sonic Link technology has less delay than bluetooth. 👍
I do need shorter cables, I agree. But I do not need antenna distribution with just two wireless 👍 I’m sticking with this setup because it’s amazing, but Sounds like another great option though, thanks for sharing!
Where can I find the cable from the wireless receiver to the speaker?
You have to email Bosch and order it directly. It’s pretty silly that it’s not easier to buy
How is it vs Maui 5 tower in sound quality?
Both sound great! I use Everse for weddings and louder events and Maui for acoustic sets
@@ScottUhlMusic thank you for answer Scott! Soon 100k subscribers, wish you 1 million at least!
@@sevalmi8681 thank you 🙏 I’m hoping to cross the 6 digits by the end of the year!
Scott, what would you think about using the 8s (or 12s) as stage monitors? I'm also a Colorado mountain guy and have been getting more requests to do remote live music with 3-4pc bands.
I have a Honda ultra quiet generator and will be ordering a 2kw power station soon.. but if I could lessen the load while also having the utility of using them standalone at other gigs, that would be sweet.
Ideally I'd like to get something like the EV PXM12M that are built to purpose but versatility wins on a limited budget.
Thanks for another great video!
Thanks! And for monitors I would go with the 12s
check out the Wave 8 as I always use two speaks for my ceremonies and 2 to 3 wireless mics. The Wave 8 is IP rated for rain and sounds great. Running with two QLDX lapel mics makes a solid Ceremoy system.
Oh nice! I’ll have to check that out. Good call with the QLXD 🤘
Would you say the everse 12 is significantly louder than the 8? I currently use a pair of everse 8’s and a 12 inch ev sub. Was thinking of upgrading the 8’s for the 12’s but don’t know if it would be worth it.
If you already have a sub, I think you are already doing well. There's not a HUGE change in the 12. It's there, but it's not a massive change. If what you have is working, I think you can stick with the 8 :)
Are you hearing hiss noise from everse 8?
When i turn on the everse 8 without any connection to the speaker I'm hearing a hiss noise (White noise) from the everse 8, Is that noise normal for a speaker or need repair?.
Sometimes a speaker will get hiss if it’s turned up very loudly without anything plugged into it. That can happen
One think, why do you always place the PA behind the audience? That would drive me crazy while speaking. Speakers muss stand in front or right behind of the speaker, where the voice comes from?!
Depends on where I’m asked to setup at. Mostly to keep speakers out of pictures. But I’ll setup wherever I’m asked to 👍
Somebody has dealt with Bridezillas in the past, haha
Dude…. No kidding lol! It’s not always the bride, sometimes it’s the planner or a parent of one of the bride/groom, but it’s always “we are just gonna hope for the best” haha.
Most people I work with are good… but man those few stick with you!
Really hoped for a magic phrase in this one 😂
hahahaha I know! It's hard to ship speakers for sure, and I try to do them when I can! :)
Human body consist of 70% water. Water blocks radio frequencies. 😉
Yup!
Next album title: “Feeding the Agro-rhythm Godz”
😂😂 it should be!!
I can't believe its raining?
😂😂😂 no joke, happens every single time
Rain and heat is the worst for your gear!! Protect your gear!!
💯
Am I the only one who finds all the pop-up animations really distracting?
Some people do, some people like them. I try to find a balance of “not too many” and “just enough to keep it from being boring”
@@ScottUhlMusic I personally love it ! 😅
almost as annoying as him repeating “what he’s going to do with this video” the first five minutes…
