    Oh, by the way, I wanted to mention that I recently bought a Midi captain duo, (2-button) midi controller (very easy to program). and used your video to help me set up a talkback mute on my XR18 using just my vocal mic and not splitter! The band was very impressed with my tech wizardry.... but I got the idea from you! Thanks again Scott

    I was so tired but I couldn't call asleep. I'm glad I had a "sleep token" I could use to get some rest. I would really appreciate this gift. I have a band that is trying to get to the next level in equipment. Thank you

    Great in-depth review as always, Scott. The workaround for the RF scanning is very clever, never thought of that trick, thanks for the tip. More power to your channel and sleep token!

    Thanks to you I used the Anleon S2 for over a year. I loved it and it worked well, with only a few dropouts, but cut out at the last gig around 50 times over 3 sets. So I just upgraded to this one today and I hope it'll be more reliable. Thanks for all the information you provide. it's really helpful.

    Love the video explaning the things to keep in mind when using wireless systems. It's crazy how often we discard wireless as just a unite to plug in instead of really considering the impact of radio frequencies that exist in the signal flow. It really is a sleep token for the mind

    • @ScottUhlMusic
      @ScottUhlMusic  5 місяців тому

      G4 is better if you can afford it…. And they have the SR2050 if you can go above the G4 as well. Just depends on your needs, not every band needs the best of the best

  • @thumperspot

    Great vid Scott! I’ve always enjoyed your stuff, especially your backing track content. It helped me out immensely on a recent tour with a band I play in. It was pretty stressful though. So much so that I had to negotiate an amendment to my employment contract when I got back mandating a required nap time. Every week I’d get two hours to myself without having to do any work and still get paid. The only catch was, I had to use it to catch up on some much needed sleep, nothing else. So every Wednesday since then I notify my boss that I was logging off and going to nap for a couple hours. I’d log my time in my timesheet with a special project code, a “sleep token” if you will, and go to sleep. Then I’d wake up and start the cycle all over again.
    It’s helped immensely, but not as much as your backing track vids helped me succeed on this tour!

  • @gianfrixmg
    @gianfrixmg 5 місяців тому

    That IEM system looks very nice! I remember once when I was playing that the audio guy asked me what frequencies my IEM used, maybe because it could have conflicted with the antennas on stage for the mixer. I've seen those in quite a bit of concerts. That time I had those very cheap transmitters in the 2.4GHz range so no issues for him, but I'm curious and on the fence about these other IEM systems, as mine compress quite a bit and sometimes distorts. You also made me curious about Sleep Token, never heard of them lol

    I just bought this model of monitor. It is replacing the entry-level model of Shure IEM. They worked perfectly for a dozen years. The Sennheiser model is much more complicated than the Shure ever was. I'm having problems with the noise in the background and finding a good frequency. When and if I ever find a good Frequency will the background noise go away? I've watched your vid several times and noted a Squelch control is on the higher-end monitors. This was never a problem with the Shure's. Thanks for taking the time to consider this.

    • @ScottUhlMusic
      @ScottUhlMusic  28 днів тому

      If you don’t have a good frequency, it doesn’t matter which system you use. The PSM 300 are definitely an easier system to use, but this shouldn’t be too complicated. Likely you just don’t have a clear frequency is my best guess

  • @gavstar21

    Looks like a good system. I would probably class it more as a mid-tier price range when compared to some of the other wireless IEM systems you have reviewed, such as the Xvive U4. Although, that's only a mono system so perhaps I'll get myself a SLEEP TOKEN to enter the giveaway and hopefully experience what a stereo system can offer.
    Keep up the great work, Scott!

    • @ScottUhlMusic
      @ScottUhlMusic  5 місяців тому +1

    Hard to find an affordable option with XLR and 1/4” inputs. Thanks for the signal tip 👍🏼👍🏼

    Another detailed review. I appreciate your review style. Easy to share with others and be fairly sure they will actually learn something and I won't have to translate every important point. Looking forward to checking out Sleep Token.
