Audio Technica Dual Camera Mount wireless
Audio Technica has announced a new ATW-1821 wireless mic system for camera mounting with a 996 frequency agile Dual Diversity Receiver design enabling reception of two transmitters simultaneously. Just what every cameraperson has been asking for. Packages are available with 2 body packs transmitters, 2 plug-on cubes or one of each.
With UHF reception (996 frequencies user-selectable in 25 kHz steps), Audio-Technica's new 1800 Series dual-channel camera-mount wireless microphone systems provide extremely flexible, professional, and easy-to-use portable wireless solutions.
For simultaneous operation of two microphones, dual-channel 1800 wireless systems include the ATW-R1820 dual receiver with two completely independent receiver channels in a single unit. Dual balanced outputs enable signals to be mixed, or independently assigned to each output. Independent audio level controls provide flexible audio mixing and monitoring possibilities.
1800 Series wireless systems come equipped with a choice of plug-on and body-pack transmitters. The ATW-T1801 UniPak body-pack transmitters feature a professional locking 4-pin connector compatible with all Audio-Technica Wireless Essentials microphones. The ATW-T1802 plug-on transmitters feature a locking XLR connector for adapting dynamic and condenser microphones. Both transmitters offer selectable high and low transmission modes to conserve battery life/maximize power.
Additional 1800 Series features include automatic frequency scanning, Tone Lock squelch, back-lit LCD, soft-touch buttons, headphone monitor output with independent level control, and durable metal construction.
