Frequently Asked Questions

The receiver scans for clear frequencies and transmits the setting to the transmitter via infrared; it’s generally reliable but can be affected by strong infrared interference.
While technically possible, these operate on a limited frequency band, so compatibility isn’t guaranteed and could lead to interference.
The capsule provides a clear, detailed sound, suitable for vocals and speech; it won’t match a high-end studio mic, but it's perfectly adequate for live performance.
