Hey Guys, :help:

I was wondering if you could provide me with some information
about the Stageclix Jack Wireless-System

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]


1:Do you think that it fully displays the sound of a 5-String-Bass (With the low b) ?

I dont care too much about the sound itself, but all frequencies should be hearable

2.At Thomann it says that it has 12 Channels, but even in the Video i can see no knobs or anything to change it. Can you really do that, and how?

3.If you have anything else to say about this product just tell me ;)

Best Regards, Johnny

Hi Johnny,

Sorry I missed your post earlier. I've been using the Stageclix Jack since 2009, and it's been great almost all the way. The sound is really transparent, I've never had trouble with interference, charging the unit is a no-brainer, the dynamics of my basses are untouched, switching basses is a dream.

Switching channels is a matter of plugging the transmitter into the receiver, and pressing its only button. The lights blink to show you the channel number, and it hops to the next channel with each button press.

Troubles I've had:

- at one point after the 24-month warranty expired, it seemed to connect allright, but wouldn't pass sound. I sent it to the manufacturer in Amsterdam, and got it back a couple of days later, free of charge.

- I use basses with active electronics. The manufacturer warns that those circuits may cause interference (surely it must be the other way around: the Stageclix may inject noise into those circuits). I sometimes hear high pitched garb coming through, and solve it by rotating the Jack to the optimal position, and rolling off highs on the amp. My electric uprights don't have much up there anyways. With an active guitar you would want to use an extension cable to get the transmitter away from the active electronics.

It *is* a digital device, so your signal will be delayed about 2 milliseconds. In other words, it sounds like your amp is 2 feet farther away from you. Does this bother you? No, unless you are used to playing with headphones or in-ears. Can you feel the difference with playing through a cable? Yes.

Hope this helps!


Chris
