39:03interesting to be able to find a way to up the quality of multiple people listening. Am I right that if you have one transmitter, how many units can you attach to the same frequency as receivers? Can one go to many or is it only a couple of pairs? I am not 100% sure on that. I'll have to actually ask the product team because I feel like this

39:31question has come up a couple times now um and yeah as far as as far as i know um the transmitter designed to be able to work with up to like two different um headphones but um i'd have to verify that yeah it'd be an interesting thing if you could i think you also those crazy silent dance party people who get 30 people in a room silent disco be awesome wouldn't it next question

39:59Douglas Carmichael asks through the QR code is there any way to tie the transmitter into a pro mixing console with balanced outs what's the feed so this accepts kind of a standard headphone output so it doesn't accept kind of line line output level so you would need to go through some type of headphone amp before arriving at the transmitter. So essentially the transmitter is designed to be able to plug it in

▶ 00:14:56If you remain close to the unit, it will keep the latency low. What happens if you go a bit further? How much running room do you have here?▶ 00:16:08How about multiple musicians in studio, some needing to share the same mix, others their own, without having one transmitter per headphone? Can you do a couple of sets off of something?▶ 00:19:56What is the history of Lewitt and how did the idea for these come about?▶ 00:26:43The specs appear to treat real sound, Bluetooth, USB-C, and analog as separate modes. Can the LW6 stay connected to multiple sources at once? And if so, can you switch between them or actually mix them?▶ 00:28:02I believe you mentioned being able to use the wireless and analog interfaces on the transmitter simultaneously. Is there a difference in latency between the two when both interfaces are used?▶ 00:29:12Are the batteries replaceable? What is the runtime if being used at full volume?▶ 00:30:06In your YouTube video top 10 tips for recording vocals in your home studio you mentioned number four dial in your headphone mix. Can you expand on that here?▶ 00:31:00Since DSP is built right in the headphones themselves, all four inputs, real sound, Bluetooth, USB-C, and analog modes get the same treatment, correct?▶ 00:31:52What professional workflow do you think is the best match for the LW6's combination of low latency wireless and multiple input options?▶ 00:40:08Is there any way to tie the transmitter into a pro mixing console with balanced outs? What's the feed?▶ 00:41:06How is the sound rejection and noise cancellation? Is there active noise cancellation of these or are they just relying on the fact that it's a closed foam headphone?▶ 00:42:21Are these headphones comfortable to wear with glasses? I've had problems in the past with headphones.▶ 00:43:10Can you elaborate on setting up mics in a recording studio while wearing these? Might the engineer actually walk into the active studio while wearing these to change the sound?▶ 00:44:27Is there a cushion option for hot and humid environments? My 7506 is getting sticky, and my Sennheiser HD 25-1-2s came with velour.▶ 00:45:24If I'm feeding the transmitter with a pro headphone amp like an RND-RNHP, would I turn the volume knob on the amp to max and control the volume at the headset? Do you have to learn gain structure for these?▶ 00:47:32If using them wirelessly in a situation where your signal chain includes side tone (one's own voice in the mix), would the single-digit millisecond latency be perceptible or distracting for some users?▶ 00:49:23What adapters are included with the LW6 package?▶ 00:49:57Is it a standard wireless connection or through a proprietary dongle? What frequency band is it in?▶ 00:50:23What's the most popular Lewitt mic? About how many mics are in the Lewitt catalog?▶ 00:52:14Where should people take a look to find Lewitt products? What are your retail outlets or online outlets?▶ 00:53:49Is the LW6 in the supply chain already? What's the shipping status?
