Nady introduces mini multichannel guitar wireless MGT-16
(Dave Molter | Posted 2010-03-26)
Nady Systems recently announced the introduction of their new MGT-16 UHF wireless system for guitar, bass and keyboard, which features 16 user-selectable PLL frequencies. The MGT-16 features infrared download of the selected frequency on the receiver to the transmitter.
The miniature, lightweight transmitter plugs directly into a guitar, bass or portable keyboard output jack with no cable or bodypack transmitter required; the stomp box size receiver can be placed anywhere—even on stage next to effects pedals. The MGT-16 features cutting edge technology along with Nady’s legendary hard-wired sound, full dynamic range, instantaneous transient attack and wide frequency response.
The MGT-16’s selectable channels fall within the UHF 583-604MHz range for interference-free operation. ASC ™ (Auto-Sync Channel) transfer of selected frequency from receiver to transmitter via infrared download makes set-up quick and easy.
The MGT-16 features rugged housing and is designed for maximum portability and ease of use. System is offered with choice of 2 miniature transmitters that plug into your instrument: The MT-16A with 30 degree angled plug for use with recessed or surface-mounted jacks, or the MT-16R, with a right-angle plug for surface-mounted jacks only. The compact receiver can be battery operated or used with the supplied AC adapter. The MGT-16 features dual antennas for maximum range and dropout protection and has a range of up to 300 ft operating range line-of-sight.
Street price on the MGT-16 is $199.99.
