Nux C-5RC Wireless Guitar System - Wireless that CHARGES IN THE CASE!

[@sjsphotog]

Maybe they can add a firmware update to have an option with a button press sequence so you can change the shut off time or turn that feature OFF until you change it back.

[@frostriver4547]

For active pick ups, it may depend on the shielding inside the guitar. I’ve used this many times in rehearsal and on one local gig with my Modulus Quantum bass - active Bartolini PUs and an Aguilar pre-amp - and it’s very clean. YMMV Highly recommend this. Glad I found them on Scott’s channel

Thank you for answering all my questions about this that no other channel did

[@davidreynolds6535]

Just ordered my NUX. I also noticed your Babicz guitar. I lived in Poughkeepsie NY just a few blocks away from where Jeff Babicz started to build guitars. I have a jumbo acoustic from 2006 that Jeff built before he started outsourcing to Indonesia. I love it. It’s unconventional but that’s what I like about it. Thanks for your review makes me glad I chose this NUX model.

[@saitenkiller]

Got myself the 2.4 GHz B-5RC a couple of weeks ago and I'm super happy with it. Can't believe I was clinging to that stupid cable for so long. So far, not a single issue with interference in our pretty wifi-crowded rehearsal space. And yeah, that charging case is a game-changer. Fits perfectly in a Gator case and is just so, so , so convenient. I would go with the 5.8 GHz version if I had to buy it again now though but... okay.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Hey, if your 2.4ghz system is working great (mine has too), then stick with it! It’s definitely the best 2.4ghz system I’ve used. Both are great, I just personally have had much better experience with 5.8ghz. Although… You could always get a second one too just in case 😊

[@saitenkiller]

@@ScottUhlMusic Yeah, thanks. That's what I needed. More ideas to spend money on. ;) But seriously... if things are getting more serious, it's sure as hell that I'll be getting a second system at some point. Those NUX are not the cheapest ones around, but imo they are clearly worth the extra money. BTW, have you figured out why they put that rubber bumper on the side that is NEVER facing the guitar body?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Hahahah I never noticed that, but that’s a good point lol 😂

[@colinmcdonald7591]

Thanks for the review. I've been using the Joyo JW-03 for a while and been very happy with it until our band started to get more wireless devices with wireless guitars, IEM's and the 2.4G router for the digital mixer along with various IPads and other near field wireless devices. Now the Joyo experiences a lot of that flutter you hear when another wireless device is interfering or on a frequency that is too close. Now that we're using in ears, the flutter and odd sputter is very obvious and highly annoying. Time for something different and I think the Nuxx C-5RC is the answer. As for the Joyo wireless, the only difference between it and a 15 foot cable is that the cable is ever so slightly louder with only a little less compression on the signal. Sound and tone and frequency pass through is actually slightly better than a cable. I hope the Nuxx c-5RC is at least that good. All these guys who say that these small dongle style wireless units are not professional grade, are obviously not professional guitarists. I have used my Joyo wireless for large scale major venue highly paid professional gigs without an issue and 0 tone degradation. On a large stage the interference is minimal if at all which is a plus. I get the most interference on small crowded stages where everyone is a few feet from one another. You don't need Shure or Sennheiser at $700 a pop to get a professional road worthy highly reliable wireless guitar system anymore. The only reason the famous guys are using all high end packs is because they can and when you are out there making a couple hundred grand a night, a few Shure/Sennheiser systems in your rig isn't really an issue. For the rest of us who aren't quite there yet, these Nuxx and others work very well, are inexpensive and perfectly suited for a wireless solution.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Just be careful… when you start using too much cheap and budget friendly wireless all at once, that’s where you can run into problems. Watch my video here: Choosing the Right WIRELESS SYSTEM - A Comprehensive Guide kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpqVe5aDpNKdh5I I did the same thing when I started using wireless, which I address in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpjaammojpmHd8Usi=Qb6mwI-H1brbG0US The higher end stuff is definitely worth it for many reasons, and you’ll see why in those videos. Hope it helps!

great review :) this is my first wireless guitar system and i really like it.. works perfectly but there‘s one thing about it: if you’re a fuzz player like me it’s unusable in many cases.. fuzz pretty much wants to be first in the chain and the nux will not even turn on when attached to the fuzz :/ even if i put the fuzz later in the chain or through the fx loop it will sound really bad and muddy and the volume control clean-up will not happen.. i mean you can get very clear and nice sound out of the nux if you re willing to play without fuzz :) this was just my experience and i hope it will help someone ✌🏽

Awesome, thanks for doing that 🤘 And yeah, it’s a really cool little design actually. Especially for wireless that “stick out” like the Boss WL 20, or the Line 6 G10 and stuff like that

[@mikesage2043]

I’m glad you mentioned the power off after 10 minutes. I play keys in this band mostly but switch to acoustic or electric for a couple of songs in our set. I’m looking for something I can use with my acoustic that I'm guessing the output is most like an active pickup. like your singer you mentioned, the swift system i have cuts out when i use it with my acoustic. given how little i play acoustic it can easily be 10 minutes between the start of a set and when i play acoustic. i cant have it shut off then!!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Yeah I wish that it wouldn’t do that to be honest. It’s nice, and I see why they did it, but I wish it had an option to turn that off. It’s fine for me, but I know a lot of people prefer that doesn’t happen

[@WendOLynnFiddle]

Thanks for another great and thorough review! Do both the 5.8 and the 2.4GHz systems have the same 10-min auto-shutoff? And does it shut off both ends (transmitter & receiver)? Just trying to consider how much of a disruption it would be to have to re-power it on during a set.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Yeah I believe they do. I wish that was an optional feature. A lot of people don’t like it. If you play constantly (like you don’t only play guitar every 2-3 songs) it’s completely fine. That’s how I used it.

I ordered mine after watching this. Unfortunately they didn't work. I looked at all the manuals, watched this several more times thinking I missed something. It would suddenly work on one amp but when I tried to change it to another amp, no luck. I charged them completely. Now I'll follow your advice to return them quickly. Disappointed - I was so looking forward to it. Next!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

You could have had a defective one. I don’t know why an amp would make a difference. If anything it would be a pickup that would make them not work. Super bizarre that changing amps would cause it to not work

[@mintonmiller]

This interest me. I had my mind made up to get the XVive 2.4 but this not only has that cool case and 5.8, but that mute bottun is a big deal to me . I play two dobroes, one in open G and the other in open D, And am constently switching back and forth. Add to that my mandolin, and that mute button is by far the biggest selling point for quickly unplugging from one instrument to another without noise issues

[@ScottUhlMusic]

This case is extremely nice. Just remember to push the button to turn it back on when you need it. I do wish you could disable the auto mute, but as long as you remember it should be ok 👍

[@mintonmiller]

@@ScottUhlMusic so have you done any experiments to see if there is any correlation be tween time and the receiver also shutting off? Can you run the receiver while it is plugged in to a charger? If so, does that affect if the receiver also mutes after a certain time or just the transmitter mutes?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

The transmitter mutes first. The receiver can mute after a longer time, but not immediately. And you can use the receiver while charging 👍

[@adamalper804]

Question...if i plug the transmitter into my tuner, which is my first pedal, does the mute function of the pedal still kick in? Meaning when I activate the tuner, it mutes the signal and I can change guitars or check tuning. Does it still work that way with the transmitter plugged in, or do I have to use the mute button on the NUX itself? You do phenomenal work, by the way...

Based on what I have gleaned from your videos the Swiff model is the one that intrigues me most. I do have one guitar with actives.

If you “don’t want the slightest chance” of them to cut out, then you gotta spend the money. I just played for 2 weeks in the Bahamas (amazing trip) with the Swiff. I had a cable ready just in case, and it worked great the whole time, but I knew the risk and had a plan.

Interesting. After a year it should still be fine. I would reach out to NUX, but it might be out of warranty at this point unfortunately

[@DanielBobke]

Is it possible to purchase just a transmitter only so that you can have multiple transmitters for multiple guitars to pair with the receiver (one at a time, of course)? This would make changing guitars on stage much easier.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I don’t know about that. My gut is telling me no, but I would reach out to them and ask

[@DanielBobke]

@@ScottUhlMusic I found their support e-mail and sent them a note. They said no because the transmitter and receiver in a set are matched to each other. You would have to match the individual transmitters to the receiver each manually - so it really doesn't save you any time.

Yup that was my guess on how they worked 👍

@@ScottUhlMusic I did suggest this as a product improvement for the future! I love this wireless set...never had a problem with it and it sounds great.

[@vanderlaanmusic]

When you put the receiver and transmitter back in the case, it starts charging. Unfortunately, batteries become bad when you charge them too often. Charging stops when the two are fully loaded, but what happens if you leave them in the case after they're fully charged? Batteries will lose power when you don't use them. Will the case start charging again, or will it wait until you start the knob on the outside? What is the best way to save battery life?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

It does charge automatically. Anything with a built in battery will have to be changed out eventually. I’m fine with that at this price point. This thing still works very well. Look into Shure or sennheiser wireless if you want one that take standard AA batteries

That’s true, but 2.4ghz is much much more crowded with far fewer channels like I go over in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHTVd36Bp52Ki6Msi=jygx1AghK2C4ZFqB

Ive monitor the battery life after full charging, last about 4 hrs and 40 min.. However, it did not show low bat warning, from green and suddenly orange blinking for 10 sec and died. I tot it will turn orange for few min. Any advice?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

That’s interesting… but as long as it charges I would just remember to charge it after every show since it has the case for it

[@PeterMatuchniak]

Sadly a deal-breaker for me until it’s USB-C. I’m trying to cut down the number of cables I carry to an absolute minimum, and if I forget one it’s likely someone will have USB-C. Which other brands are USB-C? Interested especially in Swiff WS-50 or WS-70. I love your videos on this topic (and in general), but mentioning the types of cable needed would be a bonus

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Brian Fay is usb C: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZqqgmqbaMynkMU and I think in every video I mention how the wireless charges with what kind of cable

[@PeterMatuchniak]

@@ScottUhlMusic thanks k you for your prompt reply, and my bad for missing the specificity of said USB type. I’ve been watching too many videos lol!

[@PeterMatuchniak]

@@ScottUhlMusic this looks promising. It has the charging case and is USB-C, also not too expensive SURBORT Wireless Guitar System Transmitter Receiver Set 5.1G/5.8G dual-band

Nice! I’ll have to check that one out

[@tonepilot]

Pretty impressive. I’ve been using the Swiff you recommended for about a year now. No issues. I don’t like the auto shutoff on this one. I leave my receiver on all the time. Wish we could turn that off.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

It’s definitely not the end of the world, you just have to remember to turn it on. Having said that…. I almost ALWAYS forget too 😂 It would be nice to be able to turn that feature off for sure.

[@Paul_Lenard_Ewing]

My only beef with all these small wireless is one day the battery 'will' die. Mine did on my first one after 2 years. I did like it so much I bought a second. BUT??? Why did I have to?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Value for price. If I spent $50-$100 on a wireless that lasted 2 years, and then I had to replace it because the internal battery eventually died, I would say it’s a great deal. And it’s still cheaper than an entry level Shure/sennheiser. You still got a great deal!

[@toninocombo1405]

Hello Scott, I just discovered your video, could you tell me (if you know?) if there is a loss of sound in the "Bass". I want to buy to equip my double bass (equipped with a K'n K cell) I am afraid of losing bass with this system. The "XVive Wireless System U2" have this defect. Thanks if you can let me know :)

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I personally don’t hear it, but some people do at this price point. I recommend watching my video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpqVe5aDpNKdh5Isi=smmGWf0ZFYlGTPsn

Hey Scott. Quick question - Is there any other wireless system on the market that has a charging case and transmits in the 5ghz range? I am interested in this system but what bothers me is the fact that the case is micro usb and not usb C. Been trying hard to get rid of as much micro usb as possible. :)

[@ScottUhlMusic]

This is the only one I know. And it does come with the cable and you can leave it in the case. I prefer usb c as well, but it’s not that big of a deal since you can keep the cable with it 👍

[@hunneybee2973]

The transmitter turns off when i plug it in my active acoustic guitar. Help please?

bro is this still working fine?

[@steadymanos]

I'm a DJ and I use it. I forgot that it shut off in 10min if it doesn't pick up a signal.. lol I thought the battery died.. 😆 🤣 😂 I just wish the battery would last longer than 5hrs. I also use the Getaria 5.8ghz. That 1 the battery last alround 7hrs.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Yeah you can’t forget that it shuts off to save the battery 🤣 I’ve done that too

Tried this system at 2 gigs now.. got like a stuttering thing both times, so about ready to send it back.. any suggestions?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Stuttering? Is it by a wireless router? I get that often with 2.4Ghz but not very often on a 5.8Ghz one. Did you get the B-5RC or the C-5RC?

NUX has the carrying case. So NUX. But both are great

Hello, did you try the NUX B2-Plus ? Is it a simple 2.4 like Lekato, Amoon.... Or is it better ?

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Basically all of them are very very similar, and I discuss that in this video; kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3eto6ZtbdOXbqc

[@Time.Space.Heal.]

I’m on the fence…

[@GrimYak]

will not buy anything 2.4. too crowded. even 5.8ghz now is starting to become crowded but is much much better than 2.4Ghz

[@ScottUhlMusic]

5.8ghz is better than 2.4ghz for sure 👍

[@msum23]

micro-usb in 2022, yuck

too f'ing bad it uses micro USB... I do not buy anything with that shitty connector.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I prefer usb c, but I’ve never had a problem with micro usb

[@tymfelton]

You’re out of your mind if you think this is an acceptable wireless for major live gigs. The signal drop, like most all wireless systems is so bad with this thing it is unusable for anything but practice. The loss of EQ that you get is so apparent, anyone with precise hearing should notice. Either you are lying for the sponsor or you really don’t have much of an ear at all. Anyone reading this - do not buy if you plan to use in a professional setting.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I have taken this thing to multiple gigs. All of my gear I try out multiple times before using it live. That included the shows down in Dominican Republic I mention in this video (and have footage of). This thing worked fantastic! Not all cheap wireless will work for everyone’s setup, and I mention that ad nauseam in my videos. For you, and your exact setup, and your exact preference on tone, this didn’t work for you. If you are a “tone snob/purist” you should not be looking at cheap wireless. That’s on you to understand. I like gear that works (this one works amazing for me at every gig I’ve used it at), and I do not hear any tone loss with my setup. I still highly recommend this wireless. 👍
