Oh, by the way, I wanted to mention that I recently bought a Midi captain duo, (2-button) midi controller (very easy to program). and used your video to help me set up a talkback mute on my XR18 using just my vocal mic and not splitter! The band was very impressed with my tech wizardry.... but I got the idea from you! Thanks again Scott

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Nice! Glad that’s been working for you. The midi captain is pretty killer!

[@miketabb8318]

Thanks for keeping us up to date on new gear .i need a sleep token .

[@omarcristaldo7103]

Beautiful review Scott, love the sleep token feature.

[@danogle]

Great video as always, and thanks for the sleep token, I could totally use one!!

[@Linkmasta05]

I was so tired but I couldn't call asleep. I'm glad I had a "sleep token" I could use to get some rest. I would really appreciate this gift. I have a band that is trying to get to the next level in equipment. Thank you

[@leokent40]

Thanks for the epic review Scott! I'm definitely interested in this system, almost as I much as I was interested in Sleep Token when they first started out!

[@fredknee7718]

Been waiting for you to review this Scott! I need my Sleep Token Please!!

[@jazzfunkyplayer]

Thank you for the review, Scott, very helpful (as always). I’m planning to go wireless soon, so videos like this are much appreciated. Never heard of Sleep Token, but I’ll check it out!

[@tonynixon1000]

As always... awesome, informative and easy to follow video, so thank you Scott. Now if only i had that Sleep Token to sync my sleep patterns with yours.

[@jonathandlee97]

Love the video explaning the things to keep in mind when using wireless systems. It's crazy how often we discard wireless as just a unite to plug in instead of really considering the impact of radio frequencies that exist in the signal flow. It really is a sleep token for the mind

[@reydavidmaldonado]

love your vids! Sleep token yay!!! ❤🎉

[@BrianDavid-su1re]

Another amazing review Scott! Your tech assimilation knowledge is insanely awesome!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thank you kindly!

[@marcellcastelobranco]

Great video Scott! I didn't know them before but I'll definitely hear more the Sleep Token.

[@dominikschwaiger2123]

Hi Scott, thanks for the great video! I also got me the xsw iem some time ago and am really very satisfied so far. and thanks for the music tip. I didn't know "sleep token" yet.

[@elkhornslough]

Awesome review as usual. I'm definitely going to check out Sleep Token! Always looking for great music!

[@simonfripp]

Another great video thanks Scott. Looks like the Sleep Token show was amazing.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

It truly was!

[@tron600]

Thanks, Scott! Sleep token ftw

[@1lonnieabbott1]

Great review! I’ve listened to SLEEP TOKEN quite a bit. Great band!

[@christianbechard5664]

Scott, your videos are always both instructive and entertaining. I surely will not fall a- sleep token because I don't need drugs to get through your video! Thanks again...

[@randpresley1666]

Thanks for doing this review there Scott. I also dig the music from "Sleep Token" as well.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thanks for watching, and glad that they are now getting the recognition they deserve 💪

[@claudiojimenez6446]

Always making good videos Scott!!!❤❤Thank you so much “SLEEP TOKEN”

[@KristohanongBisdakMusic]

Great in-depth review as always, Scott. The workaround for the RF scanning is very clever, never thought of that trick, thanks for the tip. More power to your channel and sleep token!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thank you 🙏 I appreciate that, and I’ve actually thought of making a separate video on the topic itself 👍

[@GregTravissMusic]

I’m not taking this sleep token for granted! Thanks for your super informative videos, I’ve learned a lot from you!! 🙏

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thank you Greg 🙏

[@lorenzenthompson1899]

I’ve been wanting to get into IEM. Love the video. “Sleep Token”.

[@daanbuitenhuis4289]

Thanks for the great review! awesome system! Sleep token.

[@MattM65]

Great video! I’ll definitely check out Sleep Token.

[@VolksRockMusic]

I've had this system for a year and have had nothing but problems with it. Until this video, the “bodypack scan trick” helped tremendously! Thanks for the informative videos!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thanks for sharing, glad you found that helpful!

[@m11sd]

Helluva laser show at that sleep token concert! Just like a helluva overview for this system Thanks for the all the tips and tricks with gear. Learnt so much already and always waning to learn more. Cheers Scott! 🤘

[@ScottUhlMusic]

The lasers were 🤯🤯 and thank you!

[@ethagr8162]

That Sleep Token show looked amazing!!!

[@gc341]

Nice reviews, thank you! Wireless Bands video was great. SLEEP TOKEN!!!

[@chavoesunzombie]

Thanks for the review, I love "SLEEP TOKEN" too. This would work great for my band.

[@thumperspot]

Great vid Scott! I’ve always enjoyed your stuff, especially your backing track content. It helped me out immensely on a recent tour with a band I play in. It was pretty stressful though. So much so that I had to negotiate an amendment to my employment contract when I got back mandating a required nap time. Every week I’d get two hours to myself without having to do any work and still get paid. The only catch was, I had to use it to catch up on some much needed sleep, nothing else. So every Wednesday since then I notify my boss that I was logging off and going to nap for a couple hours. I’d log my time in my timesheet with a special project code, a “sleep token” if you will, and go to sleep. Then I’d wake up and start the cycle all over again. It’s helped immensely, but not as much as your backing track vids helped me succeed on this tour!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Hahaha and im glad you’ve found the videos so helpful 🤘

[@stevemears2555]

Thanks Scott. Another great video. I appreciate you educating us on gigging gear. Oh yea, Sleep Token too.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thanks for watching!

[@nelis2burn]

Axesome video's learnt so much from all your explanations! Sleep Token would be proud. 😜

[@beedub_]

Looks like a nice system. I love that you share bands to check out, playing Sleep Token now!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Nice! Hope you enjoy 🤘

[@slidepiece]

Sweet! Never heard of Sleep Token but checking them out now. Thanks for all the great info in these vids 🤘

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thanks for watching!

[@ivanmolina2879]

[@linpet101]

[@OMFGitsWALLY]

Great vid as always scott! SLEEP TOKEN

[@T-GamesYT]

Hey Scott, another great video as always. If I were to win this Sennheiser IEM system, that would be amazing as I've always wanted to play like Sleep Token🤩

[@slst578]

Very good review. Really appreciate your work and the invaluable information your share. Not to mention the "SLEEP TOKEN"...

[@samueljurco2251]

Thank you for this review. Sleep Token rocks!

[@WutrUduin]

Another detailed review. I appreciate your review style. Easy to share with others and be fairly sure they will actually learn something and I won't have to translate every important point. Looking forward to checking out Sleep Token.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I appreciate that!

[@mikeidunno]

Great review as always! Sleep token ain’t jokin

[@russellsmith7320]

Scott, you provide a lot of great information in your videos. I think I've seen them all. Looking to get into an entry level in ear monitor system. Will have to save a "Sleep Token" or two to get one. Keep up the good work!

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thank you! I appreciate you following the channel 🤘🤘

[@stevesheroan4131]

Another banger of a review, and a nice gesture to give a shout to Sleep Token.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

They are getting the recognition they deserve now. That album is so good!

[@Cubeaholick]

This is awesome, the focus mode is so cool! Sleep token

[@Don_DesMarteau]

Great video. I really like the drummer for Sleep Token.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

II is the best!

[@MattGuitarCovers]

Amazing review! Just bought Senheiser Xsw2 for my guitar and it was the best decision I’ve made for a reliable wireless. Really like your content, and huge thanks from a Brazilian follower/subscriber. Now excuse me, brb, I’m gonna comment on a SLEEP TOKEN post saying “COME TO BRAZIL”.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Nice! Glad it’s been working well for you 🤘🤘

[@patricklangdale8384]

Thank you Scott for the informative vids! There are so many of us that are just modest weekend musicians, and certainly on a budget while we work and raise families, etc. Your videos really help all of us chose the gear we be need to make our music more enjoyable for all! Very well spoken, which rhymes with Sleep Token!! Lol

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thank you 🙏 I’m glad so many people have found the videos helpful!

[@grahamwoods5829]

Another great video. Like you give opinion on who it’s for. Sleep token. Just added the lion sleeps tonight by the tokens for an oldies show. Called it sleep token on my chart. Lol.

[@RalphCunanan]

I've learned a lot about gears since subscribing to your channel. Thanks! Recently I've noticed that I've been watching your videos as soon as you publish them. Oh, here's some sleep token. For all your efforts and hard work.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

[@laurencetuten1024]

I have never heard SLEEP TOKEN but I will check them out. This would be a perfect gift for a singer I work with. Thanks for all the great info!

[@masterpdj2623]

Thanks Scott, always great info. Always scan if you're in a wireless Band😄

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Scanning is always a good idea! But not 100% necessary with this workaround :)

[@ronky]

Good review, Sleep Token

[@erniedouglas123]

Wow, thanks Scott! Glad you enjoyed seeing Sleep Token at Red Rocks. I’d love to see a show there.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

It was 🤯🤯🤯🤯

[@ZoelHof]

Great video! Btw I love SLEEP TOKEN.

[@ScottUhlMusic]

[@nenriquez1978]

Great video, just like the one you did with the EW300 system 👌🏼because of your last video extra simplified, our band now uses the EW300. Thanks “Sleep Token”

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Nice! Glad your are liking the EW IEM system 🤘

[@Spider._.dust_music]

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Nice! Glad it was helpful 🤘

[@Motioneso]

This is really great. I'm very interested in the Sleep Token feature, I don't know why other manufacturers haven't thought of that yet!

[@lazersloth3103]

Awesome review. Thanks again. Sleep Token.

[@timclark6782]

Just went to see Escape from the zoo, it was a really great show. now I think I need a sleep token. Keep up the good work!

[@tsmarr94]

Another great video. I wonder how Sleep Token sounds with these 😁

[@LorenzoLeonardini]

never heard of sleep token, but i'm absolutely going to check them out, always happy to get new music recommendations! :)

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Do it! :) it’s not for everyone, but man, I love their music

[@QuentinChiko]

Hey ! Thanks for your vids, always nice to have a good technical review :D Did you tried Thomman T.Bone IEM D2.4 ? Could be a nice budget Digital IEM, i'll test it in the few next weeks for my shows

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I hadn’t heard of that one and just looked it up. Thanks for sharing! I normally try to avoid 2.4ghz whenever I can, but it seems interesting. The xvive IEM system is 2.4 and has worked quite well tbh

[@gianfrixmg]

That IEM system looks very nice! I remember once when I was playing that the audio guy asked me what frequencies my IEM used, maybe because it could have conflicted with the antennas on stage for the mixer. I've seen those in quite a bit of concerts. That time I had those very cheap transmitters in the 2.4GHz range so no issues for him, but I'm curious and on the fence about these other IEM systems, as mine compress quite a bit and sometimes distorts. You also made me curious about Sleep Token, never heard of them lol

[@GLChapman]

That Sleep Token show looked like it was fun, and I could use a new IEM system.

[@themullett]

Great video as always Scott, thank you! Sleep Token

[@ScottUhlMusic]

Thank you :)

[@JuanOrtizMx]

I could definitely use this new stereo monitor system and definitely give a listen to Sleep Token as you mentioned them, they should be good then!!

[@pmp9676]

What an awesome giveaway!! ✨️Sleep token✨️

[@ScottUhlMusic]

I always try to give back when I can 🤘

[@ronaldsmith8966]

Sleep Token is AMAZING! And, it Wouk be amazing to win this wireless IEM system.

[@darrylday30]

Sleep Token is great band name. I can’t believe I hadn’t thought of the RF scan trick with the receiver. Great tip. BTW, I suggested “Random Dads” as a name for my latest band but the algorithm gods wouldn’t have it.
