BOSS Wl-50 Guitar Wireless System, Plug-And-Play Wireless System In A Stompbox-Size format for Pedalboards,Black

Product Information

Only when we went down the hall and into another room (probably 15+ metres away) did the signal drop out. It is powered by two AA batteries and boasts an impressive 11 hours of play time and has a convenient battery LED for estimating how much singing time you have left. An easy solution to this is to simply pull the transmitter out of the receiver a touch, so it still sits neatly in place, but doesn’t depress the button.

You can also use a ‘short cable’, or have it switched off (ideal for active pickups and acoustics) - you can hear it, but the difference in sound isn’t massive. Here you can see which frequencies are supported by this wireless system and the countries in which these frequencies are allowed in the future for wireless applications.With no worries about cable management, you’re able to move about freely while playing at home, jamming with friends, and performing on stage. The guitarists here at Sweetwater have found that it's as easy to use as your standard guitar cable. When docked, the built-in batteries in the transmitter and receiver can be charged together with a standard USB adaptor (5 V/500 mA or higher), the same type used with the latest smartphones and tablets. The system also features cable tone simulation, reproducing the natural effect of a 10-foot/3-meter guitar cable. For some users, the wireless bug design of the WL-20 and -50 means that on certain guitars (for example Gibson SGs), the transmitter sticks directly out from the guitar body, which puts it at risk of being damaged during playing.

The low-impedance signals of an active-pickup or preamp-equipped acoustic-electric guitar or other such instrument do not experience cable effects, and so setting CABLE TONE to OFF is desirable. The WL-20L also works great with passive pickups if you don’t need the subtle treble roll-off provided by cable tone simulation. But don’t worry—you can still charge it using a common USB adaptor (5 V/500 mA or higher), the same type used with most smartphones and tablets. When the transmitter remains connected to the receiver's TRANSMITTER jack, the transmitter and receiver both go into standby mode, and a small amount of battery power is consumed.Have you always dreamed about going wireless with your instrument, but were put off by the complicated setup, tone loss, and bulky adds-ons? Experience ultra-low latency and expansive dynamics while enjoying rock-solid stability and a 65-foot operating range. The Boss WL-50 gives you freedom to walk around the stage or rehearsal room, without worrying about getting your cables tangled up. It's super cool that the receiver can also run off a 9v, had a few times where the pedal power was unplugged mid performance and it just seamlessly switched to battery power. Needless to say Thomann, as always, delivered the product with fab communication and speedy handling of everything.
