Communication for back stage
April 12, 2013
This product would have gotten 5 stars, as it was exactly what we needed, and allowed us to monitor directions given by our sound man, so that we could sync curtain raising and Power Point projection. The best part is that we could use our earphones to listen and avoid any distracting noises that would have interfered with the stage production. Unfortunately, the transmission sounds would randomly just stop sending leaving us unable to hear our sound man. On one occasion, the curtain didn't rise when it should have, and I had to go back to the stage side door to verbally tell him to raise the curtain. I don't know what causes the blips of "no sound" as our batteries were fully charged and the base unit was plugged into the wall outlet. Disappointing!
Pros
- Clip on ability for carrying the "parent" units
- Ability to use earphones
- Long battery life
- Ability to communicate with each other and the base station
- Ability to adjust listening volume on parent units
Cons
- Inconsistant transmission of sound
