Frequently Asked Questions

The Quick-Scan analyzes available frequencies and automatically selects a clear channel; however, in very crowded RF environments, manual frequency selection might still be necessary.
While not as robust as metal, the plastic receiver is surprisingly durable and designed to withstand typical gigging conditions; however, extreme mishandling should be avoided.
The transmitters are designed specifically for the SM58 capsule, and direct capsule swapping isn't supported without modifications and potential warranty voiding.
