Wireless microphones offer several
advantages over their wired cousins, but
they also bring along some undesirable
baggage. Three major issues haunt the
wireless mic user. RF problems, sound
quality problems, and battery problems all
combine to make the wireless experience
a real challenge. Until now…
UHF: Here today, gone tomorrow
Your read all about it these days. Digital
television is gobbling up UHF frequencies.
Just when you need more wireless mics,
government restrictions squeeze the UHF
band tighter and tighter. UHF mics you buy
today may well be useless tomorrow.
2.4 GHz Band: The Clear Alternative.
By
international agreement, the 2.4 GHz band
can be used anywhere in the world. Now
you can buy one system and travel anywhere– the ultimate in unlimited roaming.
You don’t have to think about available TV
channels, and your 2.4 GHz mics will
coexist with all the conventional UHF mics
out there.
70 Simultaneous users:
70 channels to
choose from and the added bandwidth of
this high frequency range allow you to use
all 70 at one time!
Smart Spectrum™:
Moving beyond the
spread spectrum concept, Sabine’s
patent-pending Smart Spectrum system
combines spread spectrum filtering with a
variation of FM technology. This innovative
breakthrough provides for a more
interference-resistant system with
many more simultaneous channels.
Superior wireless audio quality
Conventional wireless systems cannot
supply the same audio quality as their
wired counterparts. Low frequencies are
typically rolled-off below 100 to 150 Hz,
prompting most of us to wish for that extra
performance from our wireless mics.
Sabine’s new SWM7000 series utilizes a
new scheme for transmission and reception
that provides flat response from 20 Hz
to 20 KHz – ideal for use with both voice
and musical instruments.
Built-in digital signal
processing for every mic
Every Sabine receiver comes with its own
stack of built-in processors. This Targeted
Input Processingallows you to customize
the sound of each mic without resorting to
outboard gear, or even your mixer. Every
system has six DSP products:
FBX Feedback Exterminator: Wireless
microphones invite movement, and as the
mic moves, feedback may be waiting in
ambush. Like having an automatic parametric
filter set on the job, The FBX is the
industry standard for transparent, automatic
feedback control, providing maximum gain
and increased clarity on every mic.
Parametric Filters: Every receiver
provides 10 filters per channel, and
these can be individually selected as
either parametric or FBX filters
High and Low Cut Filters: Use these for
broad sound shaping or problem solving.
Mic SuperModeling: You’ll love our
rugged, all-metal SWM7000 series dynamic
or condenser handheld mics just the way
they are. But if your application calls for
another mic “personality,” a push of a button
calls up a library of “virtual capsules” that
model the sounds of your favorite microphones.
You’ll be ready for any vocalist or
speaker, in any situation. It’s like getting a
suitcase full of microphones in a single
system!
Compressor/Limiter: Manage gain for
all types of performers with Sabine’s
famous digital compressor.
Adaptive De-Esser: Improve intelligibility
with this adaptive de-sser with surgical
control over sibilance (harsh “s,” “ch” and“t” vocal sounds) that adapts for various
voice types.
Batteries that last for years
Sabine’s rechargeable NiMH batteries
come with every transmitter, and the
Tireless Wireless Battery Charger systems
mean you’ll save enough money to pay for
the system, with no compromise in battery
life or performance. Every transmitter has
a charger input, and when you keep your
hand-held microphone cradled in its Charger Clip, the battery will be continually
charged. A full charge is good for a minimum
of 9 hours for the handheld system,
or 11 hours for a belt pack transmitter.
Non-rechargeable alkaline batteries will
last at least 14 hours with either transmitter.
Both handheld and belt pack transmitters
have LCDs which
indicate battery
strength and
hours of use, and
this information
is transmitted
to the receiver
(along with the
type of battery in use), which flashes a
warning when the battery charge is low.
Handheld mic mounted in
holder with built-in charger
Conventional wireless systems cannot supply the same audio quality as their wired counterparts. Low frequencies are typically rolled-off below 100 to 150 Hz, prompting most of us to wish for that extra performance from our wireless mics.
Sabine’s new SWM7000 series, however, utilizes a new scheme for transmission and reception that provides flat response from 20 Hz to 20 KHz — ideal for use with both voice and musical instruments.
