The microphone’s directional cardioid polar pattern helps to reject unwanted background sound, making it ideal in loud environments such as trade-show floors, busy public areas, or sporting events.
The combo mute/power button on the mic can be locked with a switch hidden inside the body to prevent the talent from accidentally muting, changing the channel, or powering it down.
A protective ring around the perimeter of the grille prevents the HU9 from rolling when resting on flat surfaces.
The UWMIC9’s Auto Scan feature searches among 96 frequencies to find the cleanest available frequency for you, while the built-in infrared sync makes linking the transmitter and receiver a snap.
Easy-to-understand menus and controls, along with backlit LCD displays, allow you to make quick adjustments under varying lighting conditions.
The transmitter offers two selectable levels of wireless transmission power. The high setting is designed to overcome interference in busy RF environments or when the subject is further from the receiver; the low setting conserves battery power.
A headphone output on the receiver enables real-time audio monitoring, especially useful if your camera lacks a headphone output.
Power is supplied via AA batteries for up to 6 hours of battery life.
The system offers a maximum distance of up to 330′ and supports up to 8 mics at once on set.
