Great review, I purchase this mic system and then another for backup. I love this mic for the sound and it's easy setup. I still have my Shure Beta 98, but this NUX B-6 is a game changer.
Thanks for the review. Considering one of these. I was wondering if the settings for each sax type was legit or maybe a bit gimmicky, but found my answer when you changed the settings to each type while playing the alto. On alto settings, it of course sounded the way an alto should but when you switched it to tenor the sound of the alto darkened somewhat, much like a tenor. But it was on the soprano setting I noticed the biggest difference. The alto sounded buzzy/reedy. Yet when you played the appropriate instrument with its proper setting it enhanced the sound of the instrument. The soprano sounded beautiful.
Informative and comprehensive demo...many thanks. I actually have one and hardly used as I do prefer a microphone as I have total control over the tone. For Soprano, I tend to place the horn half way alongside the sm58 so to achieve a sweeter sound etc. However, you've spured me on to use it more now. Kindest regards. John
I guess didn’t read the instructions properly. Remember I made this review before they released the final version. But honestly i don’t think it makes that much difference.
I see a colomn array system you are using for gigs towards the end of the video. Is that a Boss colounn array system. And how well does it perforn for small gigs
NICE TONE SEEMS TO BE HIGH QUALITY. The Only Thing that would be better For some is AAA Battery Power Removable. Hopefully the rechargable Will not prove to be a problem after Time goes by.
That is probably the trade-off. What's the way it comes you won't need to worry about taking batteries out and putting them in. The downfall is once it's damaged it's non repairable. At this price range you probably want to get 2 years out of it to get the full value
Great question. Generally for recording you should use a wired microphone.That said, I found this to be pretty decent for recording. The microphone itself is excellent, and there could be a way to use it as a wired mic, using and extension cable.
Indeed, this is a BIG problem if you use this mic on stage and if there are sequences without the sax ... very risky IMO as you have to restart both emitter and transmitter. Hope they will reconsider this in the future versions.
Hi Preeti. I've not tried it.The receiver is an XLR, so I suppose in theory if you have an XLR>1/4inch jack it could work, since most pedals are 1/4" jack.
Great review! So I bought one of these and I like it, but I have been burned TWICE on gigs with the battery in the transmitter crapping out mid-gig. The first time I discovered was the bad design flaw where you actually have to press the button on the case to actually get it to charge when it's plugged into USC-C. I didn't press that button. However, last weekend, it did the same thing, and I could swear I had it charging for hours after pressing the button, and the side case LEDS for the case-charging showed all four LEDs lit green. What could be going on? What do you do to make sure it doesn't crap out on you? Might I have a unit with a defective transmitter battery?
I've never had an issue with the battery, and I've done gigs of 4-6 hours. But then I do charge it fully, and then switch off the transmitter and receiver between sets.
I did a quick Google search and found a few places, although I don't know if they have them in stock: stagegearstore.co.uk/nux-b-6-b-6-wireless-saxophne-system-2-4ghz-173-385uk.html www.yourspares.co.uk/parts/ys88017/b-6-wireless-saxophone-system-24ghz--saxophne-173385UK.aspx www.instruments4music.co.uk/radio_mics/nux_b6_wireless_saxophone_system_24ghz/29222_p.html It's still fairly new, so I'm guessing they are sorting out distribution in Europe. It's definitely worth contacting @NUX EFX & Amplifier directly for more information on availability.
Hey! Great review! Quick question, when you put the receiver into the effects pedal, do you then take an xlr cable and plug the effects unit into a mixer desk? Thinking for a live setting with a band
hello congratulations to the video, I would like to know about a bluetooth speaker okay? are there also the effects? a thousand thankscan you also tell me the model of the effects box?
This review is of the NUX B-6. The NUX B-3, like a lot of other similarly priced 2.4ghz systems only work with dynamic mics. So you would need an inline phantom adaptor to make it work.
The NUX website says 20 metres (line of sight), which is comparable to most other digital wireless units. I would say that's pretty accurate. It's been pretty much the same as my AMT Wi-5, and much connection better than a Shure Beta Digital Wireless I tried out. For smaller gigs, it will be fine.

I brought just two days back.🎉

Hello. Thank you for sharing this video. Btw I think the red colour is for soprano and the yellow one is for tenor. I saw them from the user guide.
Спасибо за обзор, не могу определиться с микрофоном. Вы очень помогли!
Спасибо за просмотр!
You projected a superb sound!!! Thank U 4 this review!
Glad you enjoyed it!

An amazing review! Congratulations.
Thank you kindly!
Great review. Helped me narrow down the mics I’m considering. Nice sound!
Thanks Kevin. Glad I could help!
You should give classes on how to review products, bravo 👏👏
Thank you so much for the kind words!
I will hopefully do some more videos.
You make a great sound on your horn man!
Thanks Jonathan appreciate the comments!
Great review...Thank you. I just bought one. What reverb system are you using?
Thanks! I'm using a Boss VE-5.
Thank you, Pavan.
Nice alto sound !!
Great review........What was that red box you plugged in to ? Does it produce effects ?
Im your fan from Philippines,
The microphone lapel is so Good but here in Philippines Nux B-S is so Expensive
I hope i can afford that microphone someday
How much is it in the Philippines
thank you, very helpful this review
Glad it was helpful!
Can it work with a DPA mike and acoustic guitar ?
good review, but i`m wondering why you have the tenor setting on red, when they suggest a yellow setting for tenor.
I guess didn’t read the instructions properly. Remember I made this review before they released the final version. But honestly i don’t think it makes that much difference.
Superb-outstanding sound thanks for sharing great channel best wishes Paul from the 🇬🇧🎷#saxocoustic_channel🎷🇬🇧

Hi! It's the LD Systems Maui 5 Go (Battery Powered). I also use a Bose S1 Pro.
NICE TONE
SEEMS TO BE HIGH QUALITY.

Thanks Pavan..
What brand is the effect unit you're using, please, the red one?
Hi! It's a Boss VE-5 Vocal Performer. Extremely versatile and useful for live gigs.
The NUX B6 mic has a big issue with the frequency of the high B and C by the soprano straight.
That's interesting. You should tell Nux about it.
Hi there. It's a nice review mate. One question though in your opinion is it great for live only or for recording also?
Great question. Generally for recording you should use a wired microphone.That said, I found this to be pretty decent for recording. The microphone itself is excellent, and there could be a way to use it as a wired mic, using and extension cable.
Hey, long time see bro.....
Great review Pavan. I'm wondering is there a work around for the 10 minute auto shut off sleep mode ? I think it's a major flaw in the design
That's interesting. I didn't know about the auto shut-off, and have not experienced the NUX B-6 shutting off automatically.
Indeed, this is a BIG problem if you use this mic on stage and if there are sequences without the sax ... very risky IMO as you have to restart both emitter and transmitter. Hope they will reconsider this in the future versions.
Valor .. pode mandar pro Brasil?
Great review, but why no preset for Bari Sax ?
Hi Pavan. Thank you for your review. Can this mic be connected to a pedal?
Hi Preeti. I've not tried it.The receiver is an XLR, so I suppose in theory if you have an XLR>1/4inch jack it could work, since most pedals are 1/4" jack.
@@PavanSax Great. Thank yo so much for replying :-)
Sounds great. I'll be in the market for one of these. Just curious on the tenor sax setup you're using? Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
My tenor sax setup is a Keilwerth SX90r with Keilwerth Jazz mouthpiece that came with the Sax.
можно ли эту систему использовать на кларнете? для кларнетов подобных систем я найти не могу.
Я не понимаю, почему нет. Если он может прикрепить к колоколу инструмента, он должен работать.
I also have the BOSS VE-5 VOCAL PROCESSOR. Which preset do you use on it
I've used the basic presets and fine tuned them to them according to the microphone, and also the sound setup of my gig.

Hi great review. Do you know if these are available yet in the uk? I can’t seem to find anyone stocking them. Thanks.
I did a quick Google search and found a few places, although I don't know if they have them in stock:

Ciao che cose un amplificatore quel coso arancione dove hai attaccato in ricevitore?....Boss?
Si Boss VE-5
sir could u ever try record directly using handphone by conecting usb type c adaptor to the XLR reiceiver
I have no idea. You should contact NUX EFX directly.
Hey! Great review! Quick question, when you put the receiver into the effects pedal, do you then take an xlr cable and plug the effects unit into a mixer desk? Thinking for a live setting with a band
Yes, or a PA Speaker. Works great this way.
@@PavanSax Thanks for replying! Brilliant I have just bought one, I was between this mic and the cloud vocal wireless system.
@@PavanSax Does this mean I use iPhone to record if I connect the NUX B-6 receiver to a Lighting or USB cable?
I don't know. The receiver is XLR, so I think you would need some kind of audio interface that coverts XLR to line audio.
hello congratulations to the video, I would like to know about a bluetooth speaker okay? are there also the effects? a thousand thankscan you also tell me the model of the effects box?
Bose S1 Pro Speaker is excellent, it also has reverb, so you can plug the NUX B6 directly into it.
I was using a Boss VE-5 vocal effects processor.
Love mine. A mute button would be nice. Otherwise, flawless and great design!
Hello, I would like to know what effects unit do you use?
Boss VE-5 or Boss VE-20
Hi sir if I may ask does its build in battery replaceable
That's a great question.
I don't think it is, best to check with NUX before buying.
Hello can I put a connector xlr to pin 1/4 between the mic and my speaker ?
I haven't tried it, but it should work.
See this video too:

I need advice this Nux B-3 2.4GHz Wireless Wireless Mic System will be working with Shure PGA98H-XLR microphone ?
This review is of the NUX B-6. The NUX B-3, like a lot of other similarly priced 2.4ghz systems only work with dynamic mics. So you would need an inline phantom adaptor to make it work.
@@PavanSax send me link which one excatly need an inline phantom adaptor
hey what’s with the teflon and collar holding your mouthpiece in place?
Teflon? It's a Drake NY Jazz Mouthpiece and the ligature that came with it. :-)
It's suitable for a trumpet ?
Contact NUX they will give more detailed information about the characteristics of the microphone and if it's suitable for trumpet.
Hola es para eventos conciertos en vivo??
Sí. Es posible.
Does it have effects too like reverb or just EQ?
No
Does this mic have reverb and delay included or no?
No. but you can plug it into effects very easily.
Hi. What do I need to get to be able to use this mic at home?
Hi Robyn. The receiver is is an XLR connector, so any PA speaker, mixer, or audio interface which has an XLR port.
does this mic come with the reverb as well?
No. It's simply the microphone, transmitter and receiver.
@@PavanSax Alright, thank you sir.
Сколько времени он может играть на одном заряде?
The website says up to 7 hours.
I've used it comfortably for at least 4 hours.

Hi bro. How long range does it work?
The NUX website says 20 metres (line of sight), which is comparable to most other digital wireless units. I would say that's pretty accurate. It's been pretty much the same as my AMT Wi-5, and much connection better than a Shure Beta Digital Wireless I tried out. For smaller gigs, it will be fine.
What does this system cost?
Depends where you live. I would advise to contact Nux for your local dealer.
Hello, I have a question about the battery
Does it last long?
Their website says up to 7 hours. I've used it for 4-5 hours without an issue. Even then, you can recharge the battery in the case between sets.
@@PavanSax thank you so much 😊
