First things first: the LEKATO WS-70 works with active pickups.
I have no issues using this wireless system with my guitar equipped with Seymour Duncan Blackout Active pickups w/ an Energizer Lithium 9V battery.
Second thing: there is an audible TONE difference between the WS-70 and a guitar cable.
The WS-70 has less top end (tone/brightness) than my Mogami Gold instrument cable and my cheap Chinese made cable that ships with [some] guitars. This is not a bad thing at all; I actually prefer the WS-70's tone compared to my Mogami. The WS-70 sounds less shrill/ear-piercing in the treble spectrum while the Mogami does sound harsh.
I suppose (educated guess) the LEKATO doesn't reproduce the higher treble frequencies the same as a cable. Overall, it sounds great in comparison with a cable; you can always adjust your preamp settings to account for any treble frequencies lost using this wireless system.
Third: Sustain.
There is audibly less sustain from the WS-70 in comparison to a cable; about a second less in my case. Not a big deal.
Fourth: Noise.
My Mogami Gold Instrument cable produces 60's cycle hum & hiss with my Hughes & Kettner Grandmeister Deluxe 40 Tube Amp. The LEKATO WS-70 does not produce 60's cycle hum at all, just hiss. It is significantly less noisy in comparison to a cable. As for the hiss, it can be removed with a noise gate.
Fifth and lastly: Audio Waveforms.
When recording into a DAW, the waveform of a cable is dynamic with peaks. The waveform of the WS-70 is more linear/smooth with no peaks. Is this compression? I'm not sure. Take this information with a grain of salt.
Overall, the WS-70 is a great sounding system, and I would buy it again especially at its current price. Want to know about battery life, reliability and range? Check out the other reviews for that. I literally wrote this review after two hours of owning this system.
Super Duper Surprised!!!
Whaaaatttt! Wait!!!! 😄😆😍-Quality = Shocking!Value = Crazy!Size = No brainer!Ease of use = Super easy and fun!Versatility and Battery life: Way beyond what I even thought was possible.-Well done!
These microphones can be similar to put into use. Once the receiver and the microphones are charged up, simply plug the receiver into your mixing board and turn it on microphones are easily paired up and it’s easy to change the channel so that you have two microphones working together, these are great for speeches and toast and we use them on a regular basis. I’m not sure how much I would trust them for karaoke singing, because most people who sing karaoke really have horrible microphone etiquette, and don’t understand how to hold a mic or the differences between Mike’s because of all the stuff they see on TV. Other than that, I really am greatly satisfied with this purchase
This is a well made amp and the battery stays charge for a long time. I’m not sure how many hours but atleast more than 4 hours. The amp doesn’t turn up too high but the sound is clear at the max
Most important to know is.. IT ROCKS.. Seamlessly.. Great Wireless. 5.8GHz.I liked how easy it was to pair.. i just turned both Tx and Rx dongles on ... and they Paired instantly. They rock Instantly.. they put a smile on my face INSTANTLY... this is what i call Instant Gratification of the ROCKIN' Kind. If you need something that is priced perfectly for any budget... this is the one to get. Tune Up, Plug In, and ROCK OUT!!! Get yours and start enjoying playing without a cord to step on. Thanks.
the LEKATO 2 IN 1 Drum Looper Pedal, Stereo Guitar Loop Pedal Drum Machine is a fun and enjoyable addition to my slowly growing pedal collection. To be honest, I've never owned a drum machine or a looper and wasn't really sure I'd be able to figure it out, but right out of the box, I was able record my first loop and enjoyed jamming along with it later. Works like a charm and looking forward to discovering more of the applications for this terrific device. Recommended to anyone that plays guitar.
I have been a musician for decades. Guitar is my main instrument, but I like to have a set of drums for recording. Over the years I have had a typical Pearl drumset, an Alesis Command X e-drum set, and a small Yamaha DD65 (to use mostly as hand drums)... these Lekato e-drums sound good, both for recording and for getting some percussion when playing with friends. The layout is good, the triggers are accurate, and they sound good through my Bose PA. Easy to set up, although I wouldn't disassemble them to put in the carrying back, just because it takes 15 minutes or so to set them back up. I bought this as a bundle with the motorcycle style drummer's throne - absolute most comfortable throne I've used. I set these drums on a snare stand - compact and comfortable.
The most important thing is that this strap works. It is comfortable standing as well as sitting with the guitar/bass on your knee. I am really satisfied with this strap. Once the strap is on, it's not going anywhere, and that's without the plastic strap stoppers. The picks that come with the strap are of good quality. They are the same size as a standard guitar pick (not a Jazz III size). Of course, this strap does come with a couple of negatives. The main negative comes with the pick holder. If you use the picks that come with the strap or any pick that isn't slightly raised, the pick will stick to the strap cause you put a flat pick on a flat surface. It's like picking a flat pick off a flat table. It's really hard and more convenient to keep a pick in your pocket or on a mic stand (in a gig's case). The other negative comes if you play your guitar/bass in your lap like a classical guitarist. When you play that way, the strap can feel slightly weighty and uncomfortable. Other than those two things, I am really happy with the strap and I do recommend it.
I wanted a wireless for my guitar that is smaller than the Line 6 GH50 I already have, which is also pretty expensive. This is really affordable and sounds great. It's hard to hear a difference between this and the expensive stuff. The range is pretty decent, but I don't need much range when I'm recording and playing through a computer connection. I don't know if I'll use the stereo audio feature often but it's cool to have.
The LEKATO Electric Guitar Amp is a fantastic option for practice, providing a strong sound through its double 10W speakers. What stood out to me is the clean tone complemented with the delay effect—it's a truly pleasing blend. I decided to do a quick comparison, starting with just the clean tone and delay, and then adding in my Julia Analog Chorus Pedal on its own. The LEKATO amp demonstrated it's exceptional sound quality.The amp provides various sound shaping options with its distortion and delay modules, compensating for its average distortion; which can be improved by using distortion/compression pedals. Experimenting with the distortion tone and analog delay using the control knobs opens up a world of creative possibilities. The LEKATO amp is a great choice for those looking for a budget-friendly option. It provides high-quality sound and convenient features such as Bluetooth connectivity. Additionally, it can be easily connected to larger speakers for an even better audio experience. It's the perfect partner for your everyday practice and impromptu jam sessions
The only problem I found with this clip on tuner is its accuracy. It's off about 1 or 2 cents. But it's hardly noticeable and that could be the strings I am using. I like the fact that it fits easily to the headstock on my classical guitar with no issues and it's rechargeable. It comes with a USB charge cable as well. I considering buying another.

I play in a symphonic band. I programmed user samples with some instruments that we don't usually have available. The best one so far is the cannon. I'm an experienced sound designer so it was relatively easy to find a cannon sound effect online (Pixabay), use Audacity to convert it to 16 bit, 48K sample rate, mono, and use a USB memory stick to upload it to the unit. It definitely gets everyone's attention. By the way, I'm using a 12VDC power supply and it seems to work fine with no hot spots.
