Product Information
Portable bridge-mounted piezo with built-in wireless capability and volume control for violin or viola
KNA's innovative approach enables violin and viola players to have freedom of movement while bringing the natural tone of their instrument to an amplifier or mixer.
The system includes a rechargeable transmitter and receiver, and everything needed to plug in and play.
Integrated wireless system
KNA VV-Wi incorporates a wireless signal transmission for a reliable, stable and cable-free connection to an amplifier, mixer or audio interface. The built-in UHF transmitter offers performers a high-fidelity sound with the ability to move around the stage freely.
Optional wired connection
For the studio or other times when a wireless connection isn’t needed, VV-Wi plugs in with a regular 1/8″ audio cable.
Safe install
Mount the pickup jack housing on the lower bout, just below the waist on the 4th (G) string side of your instrument. Adjust the height of the barrel clamps to tighten the pickup to the instrument.
Onboard volume control
Players can control their output signal onstage or in the studio by clicking the onboard "+" and “-“ buttons.
Wooden transmitter housing and sensor
The transmitter housing is encased in laminate birch with an elegant and stylish mahogany top. The piezo sensor has a lightweight wooden casing to achieve maximum tonal sensitivity.
Protection for your instruments finish
The adjustable clamps have protective padding at each point of contact to prevent damage to your instrument’s finish.
Great compatibility with many sizes of violin and viola
The pickup comes with additional barrels for attaching the transmitter housing to larger violin and viola bodies.
