Frequently Asked Questions

It significantly reduces dropouts and interference by intelligently selecting the clearest frequency band, especially useful in crowded environments with multiple wireless systems.
The Beta98 excels on instruments with defined attack like bass and acoustic guitar, but it can work well on keys too. It's less ideal for vocals or instruments needing a warmer, more colored tone.
The Frequency Manager scans and automatically assigns clear frequencies, preventing interference. It’s highly recommended, particularly if you plan on using multiple systems simultaneously.
