This has one of the best designs, from case to mic. Compact, light, decent range. I love how quick you can be up and running with it.
I use it for casual, short gigs and as a handy backup. But my Shure BLX4 has yet to fail me.
Unfortunately I feel that most Pros would find it troublesome to rely on for a few reasons. It could really use a Pro version. Google shows me there exists a Pro version but it doesn't seem to be offered in Europe and also seems to be missing some vital features that I'd need.
- Biggest issue would be its auto-power off. That should never happen, or be adjustable. This makes it impossible to use for important gigs where you have to wait your turn.
- No frequency changing (normally should be fine, but if you do get transmission dropouts, there's no chance to improve that). Had a gig I had to ditch it because there were drop outs but we couldn't see why.
- Weak lights make it hard to see if it's on and paired in outdoor situations. Had to ditch it on one gig because I couldn't troubleshoot if it was on or not connected when we didn't get a sound.
- No on/off flip switch makes it harder to know if it's actually on, since sometimes you can't see the light.
- No mute switch. I'm often needing to shut off my mic and don't want to worry about transmitter turning off due to no signal.
- No battery level indicator. Wouldn't be as much of a problem if there wasn't a way to swap the battery if anything. Only the case has indicator lights, and you kind of have to hope it charged them fully.
So, I would really love a Pro version of this. Make it a little bigger with a few more features and this would be amazing.
Additional: My first delivery had connection issues so I sent it back and had to wait a few weeks for repair, and the second had sadly the same issues and was sent back. So it was a while before I had the final third version and that has so far been working for a year now.
