Thanks for your reviews of this product. I am very keen to try it with my mic, which is a bulletini type, so it shouldn’t be too bulky. I can always use it for my guitars if it doesn’t work out :) Cheers! PS: What a great band!
I'm with you on this one. My wireless is the Boss WL20 set. If I'm using a bullet mic, it feels great. If I'm using a modded sm57, the physics quickly get uncomfortable.
This unit is light, and as Norfolk points out, it does tuck, but even so, on head shakes, for example, it tends to develop it's own momentum which is off-putting. But I'm sensitive to that - it's why I won't wear a hat when I'm playing for example - too many things moving IN my head already, lol.
Joyo makes a 5.8ghz unit as well, so if you run into any issues with band mates running on 2.4ghz, you can have a set of both 2.4 & 5.8 👍🏼 Another option if you have a crowded stage, is run a female to male 1-4” from the receiver to the amp input… then place the receiver as close to the transmitting unit as comfortable. Still get wireless functionality, with added reliability of a short space between the transmitter and receiver. This resolves any interference or competing signals in close proximity as well as allowing you to roam farther from the stage if you put the unit in front of the stage.
oh, now that's a good idea right there. Also, this unit DOES have four channels to choose from, so my *guess* is that with some fooling around, the guitar player and I can land on separate, un-conflicted settings. Or, I just don't stick my mic too close to his business....
@@Tim48103 the folks I play with all stand in front of their amps, so their signal goes from their guitar backwards… I run a cable to my amp and set the receiver in front of me, sometimes on a mic stand, so that my signal is going ‘forward’. It also lets you meander around the venue without losing fidelity.
Your Harmonica sounded a bit muffled. I realise listening on a computer is nothing compared to your actual sound however, it just seemed as though a small change in Tone might fix the issue... it sounds like whoever is doing acoustics/sound checks for your fine band has every instruments Tone level on the same number which unfortunately created difficulties in differentiating each instrument's sound which caused that "muddy/muffled" issue. I'm a Drummer and when I was playing in assorted Bands we had to deal with this a lot. Everyone's "ear " is so unique and what one person thinks is perfect at Sound Check will always not be to the House Sound Check Person or all the other musicians in the Band. Anyway, as long as you're having a great time playing on stage, which looks like you are, that's what's important! I also play Harmonica though not as well as you, and I absolutely love it...also miss being on stage playing music with others. There's nothing else as exciting to me than being in front of other people and just playing music with a Band. I appreciate your videos!💡🎶💥🤙🏽🌌🌛
Thanks Eleni - yeah, this was just a rehearsal, and we didn't have our sound guy there, so the mix was just a guess that the keyboard player tossed together. As to my harp sound, to be honest, I prefer the dark muddy tone, so this vid's tone isn't really all that far off from what I normally sound like live, lol.
That’s what I do the bulk of the time. I “short-corded” my Green Bullet and stick my Joyo in my pocket. I’ve also run it directly out of a custom mic, the same way you have it, but the Green Bullet fits my fat hands better. I’ve never had a problem with the Joyo cutting out in practices or gigs.

The boss is a good bit heavier than this unit and does not tuck. These things weigh virtually nothing.

Whatever the mic, I'd run a short cable and have the unit on my belt or in a pocket. Yes a cable but attached to myself. ;)
That's a good idea - I'd probably figure out a way to get tangled up in that, too, though. I'll have to give that a try and see.
@@Tim48103Yeah I don't know from experience. I never played live. Let us know how it goes in the future!
