Introduction - Samson AG300 Owner's Manual

Introduction

Welcome to Samson AirLine Synth—the next generation of wireless systems! Wireless
microphone and instrument systems were originally developed to eliminate cables,
providing unparalleled freedom of movement. AirLine Synth takes this concept
to a new level with transmitters so small, lightweight and aerodynamic, they are
nearly invisible, providing a completely "hassle-free" user experience. To create the
world's smallest frequency agile wireless transmitters, we developed new proprietary
technology. Featuring miniaturized circuitry and the ability to operate on a single AA
battery (with 10 hours typical battery life), these transmitters also provide significantly
improved wireless reception and sound quality. What's more, the AR300 receiver
developed especially for the AirLine Synth guitar system provides over 300 channels
with automatic Channel Scan to help you find the clearest frequency to operate on.
Once the AR300 finds the clearest channel, it's easy to set the AG300 transmitter to the
matching channel using the IR SET feature. The convenient, all metal half-rack chassis
design features a large backlit LCD display and includes a rackmount kit to install into
a standard 19-inch equipment rack. The Samson AirLine Synth UHF guitar system is
designed to replace the cable between your electric guitar or bass and your onstage
amplifier or PA mixer, freeing you to roam the stage or even visit the audience in the
middle of your performance! It operates in the UHF frequency range and contains an
AR300 "half-rack" receiver and the AG300 plug-in micro-transmitter designed to fit the
recessed style jack in Fender Stratocaster™-type guitars, or convertible, to fit all other
standard end-mount guitar jacks.
In this manual, you'll find a detailed description of the features of your AirLine Synth
