Title: Does Bluetooth create problems in a studio?
Post by: karambos on July 19, 2004, 01:31:27 PM

I need to get a printer for my studio and I've seen the option of a Bluetooth connection. This will save on wires (which in my place is a good thing) but I've heard that Bluetooth is sends on some sort of radio frequency. My worry is that it could cause interference in any signals.

Can anyone advise me as to whether bluetooth is problematic in a recording studio?

Unless you have poor shielding, the answer is no... i run both 802.11g (Wireless LAN) and bluetooth around my place, no interference so far.

Remember bluetooth devices have a very low transmission power and operate on the ISM band (2.4 GHz) so the chances of interference being audible are fairly slim.
