Everything you must know about the NUX C-5RC! 

Extreme amount of work yes but hopefully it is extremely helpful too! :)

Thank you! Glad you like it!

I'll be happy to make more! :)

I'm glad you like it :)

Thanks for the kind words! Glad I can help :)

You're welcome!

Do remember the trick of extending the system! Else you may experience interference or the unit not working due to differences in wiring.

Go get it!

There are so many factors that will affect its performance. Interference, bad wiring in the guitar or pedalboard, power supply of the studio and probably the C-5RC running out of juice? Hopefully you guys can figure out why and solve the problem :)

I would not be able to advise as I've no such setup to test it out. :) But you might have a chance there!

I'm not exactly sure what problem you are talking about. I've got the Getaria 5.8 rechargeable system. In fact got 2. I use them on the p board to amp side of my electric guitar setup. I also use them with my acoustics for a outside worship service sometimes. I don't get very far away but once before we started we went out to get pictures with some visitors and I absently minded, strummed my guitar while someone was talking on mic to the congregation. My strum came over the speaker at that time. Now I was probably 150 ft away and of course it won't pick up the guitar normally that far away but when you don't want it to , it does. Other than that my only problem is after 2 yrs of use battery life is down to 4-5 hours. In reality that's not a problem. That's why I have 2. Also on the other end of my p board is a AKG wireless bug system. I've been using AKG for 15 yrs and have a assortment of different frequency AKG bug systems. Including a battery receiver 1 and a mic hook up 1. I started with the cheap Nady system yrs ago. Even though that's garbage I been wireless since. I even bought brand new 20 ft cables when I found a sale on Ebay but only used 1 to test. The others are still wrapped up new. The 5.8 wireless system has proven to me to be worth it in the lightweight kind of music stuff I'm doing at this time. Never been on a typical real stage with lights and big sound systems. So don't really know how much interference would happen. But just 2 people with guitar, keys and vocals (all wireless) everything has always worked out great.

Well our wifi runs on 2.4ghz and 5.8ghz! So I don't see why other commercial products won't be allowed to use the same frequency band.

Yes but the battery here refers to the positive power entering the unit to charge it. It acts as the ground connection when it is not in charging mode.

line out from the board to the amp? Yes you can as it functions just like a guitar cable. Latency will surface if you are playing in a high interference area or if you are really far away.

I honestly don't know as I've not been in that situation. I'm guessing you will be able to update us about it instead. :)

@@PedalRebel880 I tested, just pressed once on the transmitter to turn it to Red, kept it like that for 40 minutes, plugged it back to my guitar and pressed once to turn it on - green - and it connected back normally 👍👍👍👍

I'll say it depends on how strict your gig venue is. This device is designed to pair to each other automatically, a total of 10 pairs can co-exist in the same gig. You cannot select the channel or is the frequency chart published. Of course, if you have a frequency analyzer, you can scoop them out. The problem arises if you're in a gig that is strict about frequency interference. I'm sure most gig masters will decline the use of this in a serious setup.

Get one and sell your fender :D

I did not experience noise being added into my chain during the tests. Check out 6:16 and you can see me swapping between cable and the wireless unit. They sound pretty much the same to me. I've also since use the system until it run out of juice and died. Still no degeneration in tone or was there noise added. It just shut off. But I'm not saying my test is as comprehensive as I would like it to be. I'm sure there will be situations where the system will pick up noise or interference! But at this price range, can you really complain :)

Mozarts Turkish March

Yeah can't wait to eat Turkey this Xmas!

@BenJamin ok let's do it !

@BenJamin haha! Cook the turkey?

It depends! B-5RC runs on 2.4ghz while C-5RC runs on 5.8ghz. The differences between these 2 are pretty similar to why you would use a 2.4 or 5.8 wifi connection. Also, it helps to know if the location you're using this is mainly congested with a specific frequency bandwidth, then you'll just pick the other one to be on the safer side from interference or transmission loss.

@@PedalRebel880 Thanks for the input:) I decided to bite the bullet on the C-5RC but will also consider getting a B-5RC in the future so that I can pick the best option for the venue. Thanks for an awesome in-depth look and your hair is freaking awesome!! Keep rocking!!

@@HerroVincey Hope it works well for you!

Sorry for your ears! It was terribly warm these days and I wanted to get it done quickly :D

Didn’t really like wireless. Tone and latency issues. Old man like me preferred wired. 😂

@@kelvinchong12Do give this a try! At 24bits and 5.8ghz, it really solves the tone and latency issues with most other wireless systems out there!

The best way to test freq response and distortion is to use REW software on a PC and do a loopback test. But there isn't a lot of tone above 3K or so on a guitar anyway unless you're doing a lot of work with artificial harmonics in your playing.
