I have been using one of these systems since around 2015 and it has always performed flawlessly. I have the GLXD6-Z2 receiver and the GLXD1-Z2 transmitter. It does operate in the 2.4GHz band and to date I have not had any issues with interference. Still using the original battery :) I'm still using it for all gigs. Not low cost (especially in Australia) but highly recommended.

Hopped off the stage and grabbed an instrument cable from the other band's and just did the rest of the show wired using the pass through (something that the original didn't have and the reason I never bought it).

Hey Scott, really good video! I have a comment and two questions. The input jack feature is a needed addition. I had the older 2.4 GHz version and bought the 16+ because of its dual-band capability and the input jack. My comment is that if you plug an instrument into the jack, that will automatically keep the wireless transmitter from working. So, you can't keep a cord plugged into the jack if you want to use the transmitter. My questions are first, do you have to link the transmitter to the receiver before every use? I linked it the first time I turned it on, following your video, and the units seamlessly connected, so do you have to go through that every time? I didn't have to do that with the older version. My second question is that just about every time I scan for channels (I just got it today, so I'm learning all about it before our next show this coming Friday), the group number stays the same (as it should), and the channel read-out is generally a letter (so far A-E) rather than a number. When will a number show up on the channel read-out? Is a letter assigned to one band and a number the other band (for example, is a letter designating a 5.8 GHz band that was found and a number indicates a 2.4 band)? Thanks for any advice you might be able to give me!

@@ScottUhlMusic Well, it just wouldn't connect properly. The blue RF LED would flash almost non-stop. I'd just switched from the Line 6 G50 systems, as they'd been acting up lately. They worked great for about 6-7 years. I bought 2 of the the GLDX16+ systems, as I was convinced they would do the job. They just didn't work out for me. I worked with a Shure engineer over about a 2 week period and he wanted to see them for himself. Perhaps a bad run?? Neither of my new systems would work. I had 6 straight nights of shows over fourth of July weekend. I couldn't get through the first song any of those nights. Every night, as soon as we started, my signal was audibly 'fluttering'. The fluttering sound was locked onto the flashing rate of the RF LED. I switched to a Westshell G7 I keep around as an emergency backup & it worked fine every single time. My band is pretty big with a large wireless network. In fact, we have (3) other GLXD/GLXD+ systems on guitars and they all work great! I was motivated to get mine working but the Shure engineer agreed that we'd done all we could. I love the input/wireless bypass jack. The tuner is superb! It locks onto a note super fast and it's bright enough to see clearly in direct sunlight. I hated that I had to throw in the towel, as I personally know many people that have tremendous success with this exact unit. We do have a ton of wireless devices, across all spectrums. (3) wireless guitars, (4) wireless vocal mics, a wireless midi device, (9) wireless IEM's plus a powerful WIFI router with a paddle antenna/amplifier for FOH control. It's a lot to contend with. I just cant figure out why the other (3) GLXD/GLDX+ systems always worked great but mine did not. Hopefully the (2) I bought are back into the Shure engineer's hands for testing. Thanks for listening. I've reached a point of obsession:-)

Strobe vs. Needle...I'm on the fence. Strobe is said to be more "dead-on." I've seen a lot of luthiers swear by Strobe for intonation. My experience has taught me that needle sufficient for performance as long as a) your pitched instrument performers are tuning to the same center frequency (i.e. 440hz), an b) your instruments are set up with proper intonation. This is especially true with high gain guitar. A cent or 2 differential won't be that noticeable in a live setting. In the studio...it would probably be best practice to be as "dead-on" as possible.

curious to what you're saying around 7:15, I didn't think you could have a 1/4" plugged in and still use the transmitter wireless? Thought it was one or the other? Would love to have it hard wired on my board to the main 1/4" board input and still use it on bigger stages as a wireless without having to remove the 1/4" input from it? thanks, great review!

Hey Scott...thanks so much bro. Quick question...you mentioned that you can use one guitar wired and one guitar wireless...that is a huge convenience! However, how does that work? Will one be muted? Or are they both live and you just turn down the volume on the guitar itself? Thanks for your time.

I haven’t used both of them at once with this. But if you have a second guitar already hooked up to it and want to switch to the second guitar, that’s a cool feature about this pedal. On top of you can switch to a cable very quickly if you are in a very challenging RF environment 🤘

Scott, have you tried to charge the transmitter right from the receiver? Like plugging a USB-C cable from the pedal to the pack? Does this charge the pack? Or do I have to use a wall charger? Would be cool to be able to just leave it on my board charging until I need it. Thanks

Hi Scott! I'm also in the search of a reasonably good wireless system, both to connect my guitar to my HX Stomp, and then the HX Stomp to a single set of IEMs. Since the HX Stomp is a modeler, which by default adds around 5-6 ms of latency, I've been wondering how big would be the total latency of that combination. Maybe around 5-6 ms for each device, totalling 15-18ms from my fingers back to my ears. Do you find that total latency is noticeable on your shows? Did you have to adapt your playing to it?

Where did you ever come up with by" default it's a modeler so it's got 5 to 6 milliseconds of latency" I've never heard of anything like that. Especially if you're talking about the HX stomp. Maybe on some old-school plugins. But standalone all-in-one pedals and newer all-in-one modelers I've been using them for years and I've never felt any latency. Sounds like you do more reading about gear than you do playing 🤨

@@maxammo6282 Every modeler adds latency to the signal chain, some of add less, some add more. I agree with you that the modern standalone units add so little latency that it's totally imperceptible. But my question wasn't about that, so you might read it again... I was worried about the whole system latency, which in my case would be the sum of the latency of a wireless connection between my guitar and the HX Stomp, the intrinsic HX Stomp latency, and then the latency of a wireless IEM system. I think it's a pretty fair question, since I don't have much experience with full wireless rigs, and I'm not willing to spend money just to find out that the total latency might be too much for my taste, specially because where I live we don't have the generous return policies that you guys have in the US. So maybe it's you that's trying to read too much on other people comments and playing too little, my friend.

Suppose you want to use your amp's FX loop. You need to run the receiver's output jack to your amp's input. Then get two more cables for the send and return for rest of your pedal board. Does anyone do this? I tried the device yesterday and didn't have enough extra cables on hand. I just did the approach at 1:55. My amp's FX loop was unused.

On the old system, to do a channel scan you had to turn off the transmitter. Is that different now?
@ScottUhlMusic
Жыл бұрын
I honestly don’t know. The reason why you would do that is because a wireless doing a scan will see the wireless as “oh this channel is taken, don’t use it.” So you should shut it off when you initially scan so it can find all the available channels. I honestly don’t know if it knows to ignore it with the ID link or not. Best practice is when you do the first scan, have the transmitter off. If you do happen to get interference, then scan with the transmitter on

Hi Scott, if we are using some wireless systems (xvive etc.) that use 2.4ghz, would you still recommend keeping the GLXD16+ on dual band mode or would disabling the 2.4ghz band be more beneficial? I would imagine that if you keep it on dual band mode you'd have to remember to turn on the other wireless units first so that the GLXD can then do its scan?
@ScottUhlMusic
5 ай бұрын
If you are already using too many 2.4ghz systems, it might be best to switch to just 5.8ghz mode. Although if you turn your iems on, and then scan from the GLXD+, it will avoid those channels. Just be cautious using too much on 2.4ghz: kzitem.info/news/bejne/s3morH-Bq2qIiHYsi=woc_ulONDd-DXAQS

I have the original GLDX16 Unit and I love it. I have played probably 30 - 40 live shows, probably 200 rehearsals with it and, I have never had one issue. I wonder if the new transmitter would work with the existing receiver if I had to replace it? Also, the antenna on the old transmitter moves a little and feels slightly janky so I bet that is why they improved that design. For the groups, are you saying that group 2 is best for 2 - 5 shure systems or just wireless systems in general. We have 4 wireless instruments and 4 wireless IEMs. wondering if I should change groups. We only have 2 shure wireless pieces and I have never left group 1. Also, never had one issue so I figure don't fix what isn't broken.
