You know you enjoy someone's content when you don't care about the product review, but watch because of the creator. Love ya' Scott, love the content. Thank you for putting stuff out!

[@scottmckenna]

Means a lot. Thanks for watching.

[@seamusstout5991]

This is a nifty tool I hadn’t considered. Thanks for the vid!

[@scottmckenna]

Super convenient to use.

[@rickyanthony]

Can you plug in an audio source so that you can also monitor an audio feed or something.

[@ichigo56]

Would this be able to work between two different buildings. We have our production room in one building and the cameras in the sanctuary in the other building roughly 300 feet apart.

Hey Scott; Have you updated to the latest firmware? I was curious how the new belt pack mic level adjustment works and if there's any other improvements.

[@scottmckenna]

We haven't tried yet, but that's good to know. We'll check it out.

[@jarrodtully8249]

Hey Scott. Do you think this system is viable for live music? We've had a heck of a time finding a wireless intercom system where we can actually hear each other over the bands. (Who tend to be rather loud and bangy!) lol

[@scottmckenna]

When you say Viable, do you simply mean can you hear it well enough over the band? I think it would do a pretty good job honestly, if you had the microphones close to your mouth. You might be better off getting the headsets that cover both ears if you want some more isolation, but these work really well.

I'd love to see this compared to the I wonder how this compares to the solid column C1 pro

[@scottmckenna]

The c1 Pro is a super nice unit as well.

[@crownchannel1098]

Can this garget be useful for a big outside church crusade

[@scottmckenna]

It can be used anywhere you need great communication.

[@ericleetaionn9891]

Can C1 pro pair with M1 system ? Who will be the main hub?

[@scottmckenna]

Not sure.

[@harveyelvistupamahu]

is it possible to use this COM system when we're not in the same room?

[@scottmckenna]

If the signal reaches that far yes.

[@IMDR3W]

7 thousand is steeeep but really nice option for communicating on location

[@scottmckenna]

You get what you pay for definitely.

[@arthurkallinen]

4K€ for 4? I'could buy cheap headsets and smartphones and use VOIP's like discord servers that have great quality, possibility for video transmit too (RET) by cheaper. Or just buy a set of wireless mics and mixer with mix- or multi Mix

[@scottmckenna]

VOIP and cell phones are never a good reliable option. What happens when cell redemption isn’t great?

[@DavidZetino]

You lost me at 7K 😮😢 can you do an more affordable review 😅

[@NahidHossain]

7k? At this price point anyone can start a whole new startup on video production business. Even pro switchers ar available at $500 only. Why anyone would invest 6-7 times more price for just communicating?
