- Опубликовано: 5 июл 2024
- In today's video, we are going over part 3 of my video series for what is the best cheap wireless guitar system. I have learned a lot more about these over the last 2 years since the other 2 videos have come out. In this video, I'll be responding to questions I often get as well as going over other details as well. If you haven't watched Part 1, do that here: • What is the BEST Cheap... If you haven't watched Part 2, do that here: • What is the BEST CHEAP...

Scott is very good in making people understand easily and efficiently !!
Great❤
Thanks!
I really like the amount of effort you put into your videos, the editing, the memes, the Amazon pages. Please keep it going. Its very much appreciated
Thank you! I appreciate that 🤘
Your work is flawless, thank you for sharing this with us!
Thank you for another great video! Your in depth explanations are very helpful!
Thank you, Scott! I just installed a passive soundhole pickup (Fishman Neo-D, Humbucker) in my acoustic, and I was looking into wireless systems. I'm legally blind, so the fewer wires that I have to avoid, the better. 😀I've watched a lot of RUclips videos, trying to figure out what to buy, and yours is the only one that clearly explained the limitations and differences, and provided some very solid advice. You just gained a subscriber.
Thank you Peter!
Thank you... very clear and informative video!
It's really fucking cool to see you still going. I saw your "how to set up backing tracks" 5 years ago when I just started making music and it came at exactly the right time. I'm glad to have found your account again and I'm finally subbed! Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks man! I appreciate that! Glad my original videos I did 5 years ago when I started my channel are still getting views 🤘🤘
I got the Swiff WS-50 Blackwing and just use them in my home. Clean, no latency and easy to charge. Thx Scott
I was recently considering upgrading to wireless for my guitar, and this video was just right on the spot for me! You really clarify very well what can work, and what can't work, with special note on "if you have a particular case/gear, I can't have the answer for you". That is gold, very well explained. Just like organizing a dinner at home for friends, Pineapple Pizza might not be of everyone's taste, so either you risk it (which it's not that much of a risk as returns exist) or you get a high end food that everyone loves (and even then, it might not work for Metallica).
Loved the video, loved how well you went through it, massive congrats for your Bahamas show, that looks amazing, and new sub here! Keep up with the good work!
Thanks Marc! I appreciate that, and thanks for subscribing 🤘🤘
Big thanks - very informative and you helped me understand the differences enough to make an informed decision
Thanks! Glad to help 🤘
Part 3, woo woo!
Great job - thanks for the detailed info, subbed.
Thanks for the sub!
Good stuff & useful info. All three videos parts I, II, & III. FYI: Scott is a terrific performer too.
Thank you! 🤘🤘
I watched your video on all the wireless systems and decided to try the Lekato 5.8 GHz black case and woodgrain case and the Swiff 900 MHz with the intent of running my keyboard into our PA. At the first practice with them I let our lead guitar player and bass player try them and they were so popular I haven’t been able to try them with my keyboard yet. The bass player tried all three and could hear a difference in the brightness of his tone between the Lekato and Swiff units. The Swiff unit made his Carvin 5-string bass sound brighter than he liked, so he preferred the Lekato units. Our lead guitar player plays a private stock PRS Hollowbody II and runs the Lekato system to his Deluxe Reverb with his humbuckers and the Swiff unit with the piezo output to his Rivera acoustic amp. It sounds amazing and has never dropped out despite competing with wireless microphones in the PA system. The battery life in all the units have exceeded expectations. We can get through two practices before needing to recharge the wireless systems. I’ve had my wireless units for about 6 months with no decline in performance. Our lead guitar player has a wireless unit he paid $350 for a year and a half ago and after a year the battery life showed declining charge life. He keeps claiming he’s going to buy some units like mine, but hasn’t gotten around to it yet. Maybe I should not let him use mine, so he will buy his own and I can try mine with my keyboard like i originally intended. I’m going to try the cheap in ear monitor you discussed in your video next. Thanks for doing such a thorough job in your videos!
This video is awesome and super helpful
Excellent stuff and very useful thank you!
Thank you!
Thanks Scott! This is a great review and help me a lot! Cheers from México!
Thank you!
Great update as usual! I think I've seen every one of your videos in the last 2.5 years or so. Except for the in depth hx stomp idea because i don't use that, though i still watch the shorter videos since i so use modelers. The quality has really come a long way.
Keep up the great work!
Pineapple pizza is good with beer and wings
Thanks man! I really appreciate that! This new camera/lighting and the new software I got has been extremely helpful. I’m glad to hear that. I look back at some of the lighting in the old videos and cringe now lol. Thanks for following the channel for so long 🤘🤘
Just discovered your channel. So glad I did! Thanks!
Welcome! Thanks 🤘
Really helpful thank you!
such a clear explanation, great video.
Thank you!
Great video, much appreciated Scott🤘
Thanks!
Wow, finally a video with all the right information!!!!!!! God bless you brother
Glad it was helpful!
Bro thank you SO MUCH for the videos
Really cannot explain it better than this, clear as day!
Thank you! I appreciate that! So far this video has done the worst out of the 3 videos and I think it honestly is the most important one so I hope more people find it!
Hey Scott. great video as usual. Very informative. Just ordered the Phenyx Pro PTG-12 as I needed something to go between my multi effect foot pedal and my guitar. I already have the Phenyx Pro PTM-11 IEM system and love it. The PTG-11 wouldn't work since the receiver would have to sit on the floor next to my multi-effect pedal and I didn't want that. It's not here yet but I'll follow up after I've had a little time to work with it. I like that fact that BOTH the PTM-11 and PTG-12 avoid the 2.4 Ghz. band.
Nice! Good choice. The PTG 12 does seem to struggle if there is a lot of 500mhz signal already going on. Just fyi. I know they are planning to upgrade it. I use it at home when no other wireless is being used 👍
Between myself and the singer/second guitarist in my band, we have six of the Lekato WS-70 systems. Never an issue. They are immune to issues caused by the X-vive U4 ear systems were use.
Bonus round, he's also using that Donner Arena 2000 I won for his strat.
Nice! Glad to hear you guys are getting use out of it 🤘🤘
Scott, Thanks for giving us your great videos, some topped with pineapple pizza. Seriously, you are unique. Particularly in your delivery, you are a master of public speaking in that you speak clearly, concisely, and it is a pleasure to hear you speak. There are always smooth flowing sentences with virtually never an ugh, err, or umm. Truly remarkable. You are always thoroughly researched and knowledgeable on your subject, and if you don’t know something you are honest about that. And you even followup with answers in future videos. Very impressive.
You may want to consider expanding your career into something that can use this amazing speaking ability that you have, if you ever want to move on from that love of making music and performing that we, your fans, all have.
Best of luck and thanks again for helping us.
Thanks Stan! I appreciate that! I do actually spend a lot of time editing to make sure I remove a lot of those pauses and stutters haha. But mostly because I cannot stand watching tutorial or gear demos with all of those pauses and “uhs” and stuff like that. So I’m almost obsessive about removing every long breath in my videos haha. But I appreciate this man! Im glad to hear that 🤘
Thanks Scott, it helped me choose the right one for me.
Glad I could help
I did find this video useful and I rarely get the chance to say that. Very accurate, very clear and very realistic about the pricing. I've been looking at these new cheap - there weren't any cheap ones a few years ago - wireless systems with some mistrust but apparently they do work, I don't gig a lot but cables in a small apartment are a pain, so I might just get one (or two, as I see your advice fitting for the frequencies available in case I do have to gig) and always have a cable if everything else fails. Thank you.
Thank you! I appreciate that 🤘🤘
Thanks for helping us out buddy.
Thanks for watching!
The issue with active pickups is that they are grounded differently than passive pickups. Remove the normal ground in the cavity and connect it somewhere else.
Huge fan of your content! Your videos on the HX Stomp helped me out SO MUCH! Thank you! Definitely looking into a wireless system for some live shows later this year. Pineapple pizza!
Thanks! 🤘
you'r the man, cheers
Swift audio is still my go to. Thx for the video Scott.
Glad it’s still working well!
I love my "ammoon" wireless for room practice. I've had a few nice pro set-ups in the past.
Thanks mate, exhaustive work! What do you think about "new/old" UHF and VHF freq products?
Thanks! And if you go cheap, it's worth having ones on multiple frequency bands like I go over in this video.
Thanks for the great content! What do you use to carry your IEMs and wireless systems around?
Thanks! And just different random cases I’ve found. I have a bigger case for my “gear case” that I use, and smaller cases for the cheap wireless as a backup
Great video as always. Thanks! I have purchased the swiff audio about a year ago per your video other video. Overall I have been pretty happy with it but like you said it isn’t always perfect. But when it works it is great! Great information! Since it wasn’t as expensive as the top brands, I had enough money left over to buy a Pineapple Pizza!
Nice! Glad it’s been working well for you
PINEAPPLE PIZZA - Very helpful, as I'm shopping for an inexpensive guitar wireless system. Thank you!
Great review of the wireless systems. I've got to try Pineapple Pizza 🍕
Keep up the work.
Happy giging
Pharoah
🎸🎸🎸
Thamks for the updated review. I have both the Lekato and Swiff systesm The Lekato seem to interfered more than the Swiff but both are good. I carry both to gigs so I can cover as many frequencies as possible, sort of like ordering Pineapple Pizza. ;-)
I guess first time commenting! I've been very curious about wireless and recording, but there are definitely many issues that may happen thay could ruin it. So I guess I'll stick to wired for recording. It's also very interesting to check out the mixed reviews about almost all the cheap wireless systems, here in Mexico it's quite interesting that not many bedroom guitarists get wireless systems (along with some pineapple pizza ;) ), our Mexican Peso is also very weak nowadays and difficult to afford :( . Keep the vids coming! I've learned a lot from your reviews!
Thanks for watching! The cheap wireless works more often than it doesn’t, but if you don’t want to risk it, I recommend saving up the money for Shure/sennheiser 🤘
Hi Scott, I've become a big fan of all your wireless vids, thanks! Quick question - any problems foreseen with connecting these "guitar wireless systems" to a lavalier mic? The whole set up is only send to my IEMs when I sing so perfect quality audio isn't needed. I didn't think there'd be any problems connecting the guitar end of these systems to a mic, but I thought I'd check to be sure ... thanks so much!
These cheap ones should be fine for that if you can get the correct adapters as a “wireless hack.” I could see that being fine. Thanks for following the channel!
Great Scott!!!
😂
Hey Scott, love your vids dude.
Would you be willing to go into how you went about starting a professional career doing covers and stuff like that? I’m looking to do something like that but don’t know where to start.
That’s an interesting idea for a video. I’ll consider it, even though mostly I do tutorials and reviews. But that would be a good one. I did fall into it by accident, so it would be interesting to analyze it myself. Thanks for the suggestion!
At venues, Ive use the higher end Shure and Sennheiser systems, and have never had a problem with either.
At home, I used to use a line 6 unit, which was the only one that had a case failure after 6 months.
Great reviews! So heLpful!
Thanks --- PINEAPPLE PIZZA !!!!!!!
Scott, thanks for the useful videos on all these cheap WL setups. You recommend the swiff ws-50. Since I'm looking to only buy one for use at home would you recommend the swiff ws-50 over the lekato ws-70 or are the practically the same?
I like the Swiff personally. That’s just the first one I recommend. Lekato would probably be fine
Great video! Discovered Phenyx Pro products from your channel and have been blown away. When I saw the price for the quality of the gear, I spit my pineapple pizza out everywhere. Keep up the great content!
Hahaha glad you like them!!
Great video! Thank you
Thanks!
Hey Scott, I had the $50 Lekato and they worked great but I kept leaving them on and they won’t hold the charge and I need a new one. Do you think Swiff audio is worth a shot?
Good job Scott. I learned a lot about wireless systems as well as pineapple pizza. Thanks
Hi Scott. Thanks again for a super informative and useful video. I'm playing more outdoors as summer is coming, so would love the wireless. I can then wander over to the bar and get a slice of pineapple pizza!
Always a great use of wireless 🤘🤘🤘
The Swiff looks like a Pine Apple Pizza...
Thank you. You're doing a great job...
Amazing video Scott! Your cheap wireless videos are so in-depth and so well structured, I tell my musician friends to watch your vids if they're planning to go wireless.
I may have a silly question though; if 2.4Hz is the least reliable, and 5.8Hz is better, but still prone to issues, wouldn't it make sense to just stick to 900Hz to be on the safer side?
Thanks! And it ALL depends on the environment. Some places 2.4 will be crowded, others will have 900 crowded. It truly depends.
Hello Scott, great video, thank you..What is the best inexpensive wireless for a saxophone for live performance. God bless you.
Hmm, I’ve never used one for sax before. I know a sax player friend of mine had one by Shure, but I don’t know which model it was
I bought a couple of Lekato WS70. Works fine with bass, but I get a latency on my guitar. I play funk and I dig in quite hard on the strings. There's definitely a short signal reduction on quick funk gimmicks.
Magnificent video. This video should be mandatory for beginners on a budget (enough to buy a pineapple pizza) like me who spend days doubting wether to buy or not an specific product. Love your videos man, keep it going!!
Thanks! I hope enough people watch this one because it’s definitely an important one 🤘
I got the Lekato WS60. I use guitars with mag/piezo. I have a special cable to move the reciever to my mic that has a tray to set it on. I added a extension TRS female to male to move the transmitter to my strap. I did experience a few drop outs when my brother added cheap wireless in ear on 5. 8hz. I am trying to find more options for stereo setup. I would buy a better one if I could find one. I have an old Nady 201 ch. H that works, but was frustrated with not being able to find a stereo wireless. AKG has one but, not sure if they are current. Forgot the model. Wish Sennheiser had a stereo wireless for dual instruments.
Pineapple Pizza! Great to see a solid review on these wireless systems. I've had a couple different ones that always seem to work for me as a solo musician - but I can see why you would almost NEED to have a higher end unit for full band configurations. Good job!
Thanks! My video coming out this Tuesday is a comprehensive guide on cheap to pro level wireless, so be sure to check that out when it comes out :)
I will indeed!@@ScottUhlMusic
I got the Amoon based on your video. It's great. Two problems (not really problems given the price point): a little noisy and it does a power save thing where it stops transmitting after no signal for a few seconds and doesn't turn on fast enough to grab the attack on the first note when you start again. As long as the song doesn't do a lot of long pauses, it doesn't really become an issue.
Dude, THANK YOU for saying “not really problems given the price point.” Seriously, I see so many comments who want these $50 to have the features and quality of the $500 systems. It’s refreshing to see “eh, it has some small issues, but for the price it’s fine.” I appreciate that man 🤘 thanks for the comment!
How long before it starts transmiltting again after you play a note?
Very helpful - I just pulled the trigger on a 5.8GHZ cheap set. But thinking it's a bit too late for PINEAPPLE PIZZA .... CHEERS!
Great breakdown on the hows & whys with budget wireless! I have the Ammoon 5.8ghx ones I've used for shows and rehearsals and have done well with it, but will be looking for extras thanks to your advice. Tasty for sure, and I'm not talking pineapple pizza ;)
Hahahah thanks, and glad the ammoon is holding up for you 🤘
Thanks for this video. Getting back into gigging after 5-6 years of only studio work. Looking into going wireless this time, but budget is tight. Also, pineapple pizza
Thanks for all the great info! You've answered the questions I've had about these systems and the questions I didn't even know to ask. I'm running out of channels on my stage snake, so the first application I'd like to try is using a cheap wireless system to add a channel. It's probably a long shot, but at that price point it's worth a try. I'll find another use for it if this doesn't work. I think I'll try the Lekato WS70 first, and hopefully I like it better than pineapple pizza!
Hope it works for you 🤘
@@ScottUhlMusic Thanks! I'm trying to get by until I can afford the digital mixer and snake I really need, hopefully next year. Your channel has been very helpful - I have a lot to learn as I upgrade my church's whole system.
I use the shure GLXD16+ it is dual band, easy to use and has been extremely reliable. Before this one I used a shure PGX4 which I loved for a decade but then started dropping out. Shure wireless has always done me right.
The new GLX model is 2.4 AND 5.8, which is really cool
@@ScottUhlMusic it definitely gets my vote as the best wifi based guitar wireless. For radio based instrument or mic wireless i think the Shure axient still is king imho. For iem the Audio Technica 3000 series gets my vote as it's Abit more affordable then the previous summit gear the Lectrosonics duet or Shure psm 900/1000 and covers more bandwidth.
I've become addicted to your vids and have employed some of the DIY solutions. Digging on your channel almost as much as Pineapple Pizza!
Much love~
Thanks Jake! Glad you’ve enjoyed the channel 🤘
I really love this videos as much as pineapple pizza 😅 super informative and really easy to understand. Keep up the awesome content ROCK ON 🤘🤘
Team pineapple 🍍🍕🤘
Thank you for the excellent series on cheap wireless. Maybe I missed something, but I didn't see you using any of the systems on a Strat. I was wondering how well they fit in a Strat-style recessed output jack, especially the Swiff WS-70 and WS-70+. Also, Swiff and Joyo have newish (?) smaller systems that look sturdier and have charging cases (Swiff WX-503 and Joyo JW-06). Any chance that you take a look at those?
Thanks! And some of them work with those, some don’t. Thats part of the design of cheap ones
Niice video... I bought two sets of wireless transmitters in order to send the signal to the pedalboard from the guitar, and then the other one from the pedalboard to the amp, but it didn't work..because it sounded like the signal was choking. Do you have any advise? Thanks.
Cheap stuff sometimes won’t work with every single setup… try with a higher end wireless and see if it’s a wireless issue
This was insanely informative! I remember buying a cheap wireless cable for $30 last year and wondered why it didn't work lol. On the entry level systems, do you foresee any potential issues using them at home and practicing with wireless headphones? I'd imagine no (especially given the # of frequencies available), just curious so I can potentially avoid another rookie mistake.
Thanks again for the video, really cool to learn about!!
Thanks! And for home practice, these things are great. Just keep them away from Wi-Fi routers 🤘
Will do! Last question, does the Shure entry-level have any input delay or is it just like a cable?@@ScottUhlMusic
These wonderful products that you have introduced are also making me switch to wireless gear. Thank you for the enlightenment!Cheers
Glad you like them!
Recently I've tried a Swiff/Lekato WS-70. No trouble with the transmission or latency, but I've experienced a severe tone loss. Both the treble frequencies and input gain dropped down, and I couldn't compensate in my multifx to get the same tone that I was used to. There was some weird gate effect that ruined my sustain as well. I've returned the WS-70 and I'm trying to get another wireless system. Maybe a got a defective unity? Or this sort of behavior is common in cheap wireless systems? I'm really not a tone snob, I just need something that doesn't mess too much with my tone. What cheap unity you recommend for that?
My advice that I give in this video is what I recommend: Accept that it’s possible that your cheap one won’t work with your setup, return it if it doesn’t work and try another one. If you don’t want to risk that anymore, save up the money and get a nice Shure/sennheiser wireless system.
Scott I love your gear tutorials more than I love pineapple pizza and pineapple pizza is one of my favorites. 😆 Thanks for the honest reviews!
Glad you like them! #TeamPineapple 🍍🍕🤘
Great video Scott! I ended up watching this video after watching some of your in-ears review videos. Wireless is taking the world 😅. Pineapple Pizza 🍕
🤘🤘
Great video, I really like your reviews and recommendations. I use the Swift Audio UHF wireless and they work great; I’m in Canada and the UHF frequency band is legal to use here - and so is pineapple pizza 😋
Haha good to know! I couldn’t remember who cannot use 902-928Mhz 🤘
I appreciate videos like this! In the end, folks gotta do their research and apply some critical thinking!
Personally I wouldn't use wireless as being in the middle of a suler crowded RF environment and regularly using wireless stuff as an AV guy I don't trust anything that isn't high end, and I cant justify that cost right now. I love watching videos like this anyway though, because I think it's fun to stay aware of this stuff.
Tech question: If I want to run 3 different guitars into a passive switchbox (cord from switch box "out" to tuner "in" on pedalboard) can I use just one wireless for the 3 guitars or will I need 3 separate wireless units? The switchbox has 3 input jacks 1 inch between jacks, so would that cause a problem? I'm hoping to get away with using one wireless for all 3 guitars but idk if the connection would be interupted when i remove the dongle from one guitar jack to another guitar jack. I play mostly on outdoor stages either in a amphitheater or under a large tent. Any advice please?
You can use multiple guitars with one wireless system by switching which guitar has the transmitter 👍 some of these cheaper ones will “pop” where as other Shure/sennheiser ones have a mute switch to prevent that
Your videos have helped us tremendously in tweaking our wireless setup in pursuit of more stage freedom (won't give up the traditional pizza for a Pineapple Pizza though 🙂) ... thanks !
Glad to help!
I have Nux 2.4ghz, maybe the best small 2.4ghz wireless for me. I had dropout issues with Xvive U2, zero with Nux (what a great case, too, although i wish they begin to put usb type-c instead of micro usb). Also i have Lekato 5.8ghz which is also really great and problem free for me so far. Lekato SW-70 on the other hand wasn't a great experience, it has audible sound difference from cable and other wireless units (kinda muddy sound), dropouts and picking attack/compression isues. Anyway, just trust Scott, he knows what he is saying. And the thing that he continues to update this topic with new options etc says a lot. Thanks!
Thanks Mike! I appreciate it 🤘
Hey by the way….I was wondering have you reviewed studio monitors with a subwoofer…like the presonus or mackie….I have been using a set up like out of my board to a headphone amp and so on so forth….I am now interested in a subwoofer/monitor system….or something if there may be a cheaper small set of powered mains
I’ve found that most reviews of studio gear usually does very poorly on my channel, so I usually don’t. I have the Adam A5x monitors and the Rokit subwoofer on isoacoustic stands. I do like those 🤘
Thanks really helpful video. I wanted to try some at home first to get rid of all those wires so dipped my toe in at cheaper 2.4GHz set to try and then as advised may try a 5.8GHz set and have two.
Using on my acoustic with a passive but hot K&K Sound pickup, and my new acoustic amp.
It turned up and so far so good, in my bedroom at least!
I off to a gig this week, so will report back then :)
I’m a musician and my guitarist needs one of these. Great advice and recommendations. I think we will go for the swiff audio. Sounds more convincing. Oh…pineapple pizza
Great video! I have the Swiff one but it has a (not so loud) hiss when you are not playing but for rehearsal is ok...900, 2.4 and 5.8 are license free frequencies in Canada...
Good to know that 900 is legal in Canada. I forgot where I saw that it wasn’t legal. Maybe Australia or somewhere in the EU?
@@ScottUhlMusic well I did a quick research when I bought the Swiff one so it seems legal but I am not expert...
thanks man
Hello, (sorry about my english) have you tested togheter NUX B-7PSM and Nux C-5RC? both of them looks great, but using them in the same chain the lag or delay is imperceptive? o the amount of delay time is too much for a usefull system?, many thanks
That should be fine. Some people have said the B-7 has given them trouble though so just be aware of that. It’s worked great for me
My first wireless is the Swiff one. I think it is awesome. For me, what I've learnt is that running the battery flat, reduces it's life rapidly. So if I play for 5hrs, I need 7hrs battery life.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
We had such great luck with 4 of the Lekato XLR mic adapters, decided to buy the Lekato 5.8 WS 90 to use on a Mustang LT25 amp. Unfortunately once plugged in, I'm getting a hum buzz through the amp. It's a modeling amp so some of the presets are worse than others. If i mic it to my Zoom L12 which goes through a Bose T1 then through a Bose Mod 1 L2, it'll be worse. If I go to the L12 mixing board, the buzz hum is really loud, but seems to calm down when plugged to the T1. I tried a friend's Lekato WS 70, also 5.8, same buzzing. Other than returning and trying a different cheap wireless guitar system, any ideas out there as to what's happening? One last thing, when I put on of Sennheiser mics with the MW 1 adapter on channel 2, the buzzing goes away, sometimes, and signal on guitar goes silent. The guitar most used is hollow body electric passive pickups, but the buzzing happens without being plugged into guitar. After reading this, I think I just convinced myself to try another cheap wireless guitar system. Cheers!

Great Scott! Excellent video! Does it work if a turtle is playing the guitar? 😊
😅😅😅 🐢
Hi! I'm starting play electric violin solo with a getaria 5.8 in small places and close to the receiver and works fine but I'm affraid to start playing in big places and crowded. If I play solo walking far from the receiver is enough with the getaria 5.8 or I need another system? I'm thinking about shure blx. Thank you for asking!! Excuse my english, I'm a mexican girl 😊
Hi, thanks for watching! Wireless all depends on where you are performing and how crowded the wireless signal is there. The blx will definitely be a more reliable system. I do have my full buying guide in this video if that helps: ruclips.net/video/Xi2JcMomjQ0/видео.htmlsi=N2Nvejp0Jsxs4DHu
I've been using the Lekato WS-60 for IEMs (with a Behringer P1) and they have been great. The FOH guy at the show relieved when I said 2.4GHz, as they could have interfered with their antennas that operated on the MHz range. I have yet to test them in very crowded small clubs. Hope I don't get interferences in my ears while singing or a show could go as bad as asking for pineapple pizza in Italy. I could be safe though by connecting the transmitter to a personal mixer on my pedalboard, thus keeping it close.
There shouldn’t be a reason why something in 500Mhz region would interference with their mics without just a tiny bit of frequency coordination
Thanks...you are awesome. I am about to buy a new pair. A little frustrated...you made a difference. Now I know. I will try swiff..

Hey Scott, thanks for your video, really helpful! I'm just about to buy the SWIFF but I saw some comments about it having a "noise gate" or something that cuts the sound when your guitar has a very low volume (he said under 40% of the pot). I play with a lot of dynamics, have you experienced something similar to what that reviewer described? Thanks in advance.
I mention that specifically in the video. I do not experience that with the Swiff though
@@ScottUhlMusic Cool, didn't hear that part,,, I'm viewing it again. Thanks again!
Yep, saw it already when explaining other people's experiences.
I have the Lekato 5.8Ghz and love em, they work with all my 6 guitars a bass and an electro acoustic, I do only use them at home/studio as I no longer gig but after years of twisted cables that myself and band mates would walk/trip over constantly, Ive found them a god send. I had a pair of lekato 2.4ghz previously that lasted 2 years and then the micro usb charging port gave up the ghost, I just wish they would use USB -C charging ports.
its work with active pickups?

You're god damn right
Yes
Love it.

Scott, how do you feel about Carvin WG5 wireless? Carvin has always had high quality.
I haven’t used it, but Carvin does make great stuff 👍
Great video! Very informative. Pineapple pizza!
I have the joyo and I noticed when I do palm mutes, there's these weird digital(?) Sounding over tones. I've noticed it through the pod go and through my analog pedal board(minus a digital preamp). Do you notice this with any of these? It works great aside from that but it's definitely a deal breaker, I can't unhear it now. Only way I can dial it out is to crank my noise gate but then it cuts off everything else. I troubleshot my entire chain, including any other electronics in my room and the joyo wireless was the culprit.
I haven’t noticed that on any of mine
That sure was a good looking pineapple pizza! Thanks for the videos! Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
I found a pair that looks somewhat similar to other 5.8GHz units like LEKATO WS-90, but the 1Mii M2 is sporting headphone jacks on transmitter AND receiver. I'm confused, if maybe you could use them as iem, too?
Maybe that would be some new feature making it worth testing ;-)
Yeah I reviewed something similar a while back. Definitely interesting! A MULTI USE Cheap Wireless Guitar System? - Golden Plug by KooGo DEMO

I have just got FunGeneration Frón Thomann. Worms fine, but going away from amp creates latency. Like signal have a very long way to go.
