Good Information, Everything you said was spot on. Ive been using my Stealth for about 3 years. My lessons learned; Get the transmitter up as high as you can, maybe even speaker tripod height. Change the channels when you get drop outs and interference. I change channels after every gig. Keep the the antennas just like in the picture on the box when in use.. looking forward to the Stealth Pro coming out in 10 years.,.,LOL.. Thanks again.
I have a test for you. I also have the alto stealth to use to transmit the signal from my guitar effects pedal board across the room to two powered FRFR speakers. It works really well in that application but I have come across an issue. I added a usb mixer into my setup so we can record our band rehearsals and ran quarter inch TRS out of the mixer Mains and into the alto transmitter and of course the receivers on the back of the speakers. Here is the problem I discovered. When using the alto stealth system with a mixer and a laptop running a DAW, I get very loud static into the speakers. If the DAW is not open, there's no static noise at all but as soon as a DAW is opened up it's very loud static noise to the speakers. When this happened and I was troubleshooting, I bypassed the alto stealth system and just ran quarter inch cables from the mixer directly to the powered speakers and all the static noise was gone when a DAW is open. If I am not recording and have no need to have a DAW open, if I just want to play music from RU-vid or Windows Media Player off the laptop, or transmit the sound from our instruments, it works perfectly fine. It only happens when a DAW is opened up. Any thoughts on this?
It sounds like you are creating a signal loop when your DAW is on since you are sending audio signal flowing in two directions. You should probably be able to fix this by getting a power strip unit with an isolating transformer in it to lift the ground and break the loop and wither plugging your power to your laptop into it, or the usb mixer’s power source into it. The company tripp-lite makes some good ones just search for a power strip with isolated transformer in it
I finally got my stealth however, I was getting crazy static at 12ft and I was in stereo, but the right volume was not working the left was control both speaker levels...I think I have a defective unit.
Will daisy chaining Left/Right speakers work? For example 1 powered subwoofer and 2 powered cabs on the L and 2 on the R (5 cabs in total). 1 receiver to each of the subs IN and run cables from the sub out to the L / R bottom bin then the top bin. Would that work?
Thinking about purchasing the Alto Stealth for my DJ business. I currently have passive speakers with speakon connections. Will I be able to make the system work with these items?
What about the hissing if the gain knob is any higher than 12 o’clock on the transmitter? I know I can go louder with a direct cable connection because I tested it. Any suggestions.
Hi... I've been following you. I have one of the alto wireless shield but doesn't have a mixer or controller. However I do have a receiver avr and I was wondering how do I connect it to the receiver? Lmk thanks again
They claim 200ft but keep in mind since it is a radio freq and where your going to be using it, the distance may vary due to other radio frequencies, wifi and cell towers.
Nothing is guaranteed. I have this system and it’s environmental with too many scenarios to name. The best way is to get your transmitter up as high as possible, speakers in line of sight, and use channels above 5. Keep your antennas up and in sight. If it’s a life and death scenario….this is not the system you want. There are more expensive and reliable systems out there like the Sennheiser EW-100 G4 system. I use this system when I need to be sure.
