Powerful wireless transmission with vast range
The VV-Wi’s onboard wireless system enables powerful cordless connections to amplification systems of your choice. Violin and viola players are expressive performers, and wireless sound is the best way to stay unencumbered so you can stay in touch with the music. The VV-Wi's pickup transmitters leverage impressive Ultra-high Frequency (UHF) technology that’s strong enough to pass through interior walls and can only be blocked by hills and large buildings. The included wireless transmitter and receiver sport a long transmission distance, strong anti-interference technology, low latency, and rich sound quality. Meanwhile, the built-in lithium-ion battery provides long-lasting power so you’re free to roam the stage with peace of mind. For your convenience, the VV-Wi also supports wired capability for plugging directly into amplifiers, audio interfaces, and PA systems — or even effect pedals for experimental play.
Classy lightweight design
Ebony wood housing gives the VV-Wi a rich, classic look that blends right in with a violin or viola, and the lightweight build maintains the same weight and playability you know and love. The transmitter attaches to the eye of your bridge and is padded with soft suede and cork-lined contact points on its adjustable legs, so you can rest assured your instrument’s finish will stay clean and pristine.
The piezo difference
Passive piezo electronics render your tone in clean amplified clarity that’s faithful to your instrument’s acoustics. Piezo electronics amplify wooden instruments' physical vibrational resonance with impeccable authenticity that professionals love. For decades, acoustic guitar players and orchestra pros have trusted piezo electronics for all their amplification needs. Plus, the VV-Wi features an onboard volume control for managing your levels.
