Derek H Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Going to be using a bunch of 3041/sk50 (wexler reality package) radios pretty soon and I'm told they're all in the "yellow" frequency range. Can someone tell me what range this is in MHz so I can start coordinating. Thanks. I've never used the higher end sennheiser radio mics before... any tips/tricks I can employ or pitfalls to avoid with them? cheers, -d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek H Posted September 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 and now that I think of it.. what are the 16 freqs the sk50 provides? Does this depend on "color" as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSBELLA Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 and now that I think of it.. what are the 16 freqs the sk50 provides? Does this depend on "color" as well? Derek, the sk50 freqs are the same freq blk yr 3041's ("yellow"), I plain forgot sorry. have not used them for some time. but Pascal at wexler's audio division will coordinate and set up your wireless for you. tell him the city or cities you will be in, and he will set you up.

Derek H Posted September 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately the production won't allow for a better mixer. Thinking of bringing my Alphamix but hate to bring gear just to save my butt when they're not paying for it... As far as the freqs go.. a jsforum member graciously informed me (via email) that the answer to my question is probably on the Sennheiser website... Well, I can't find a thing about colored frequency blocks on there. Sennheiser is pretty stingy when it comes to it's tech docs. -d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergio Sanmiguel Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Don't use them with the Wendt X5 since they only offer line level out and the X5 bleeds since the pots don't fully close. When the limiter on input (X) kicks in it limits all inputs. Maybe using padded cables? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Lewis Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 They are good enough for reality, but Scott is right, they bleed through when taking hits, intermod, or just plain loud sources with the Wendt 5. I believe that Keith Garcia used to used XLR cables with 20db pads in them for his kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek H Posted September 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Thanks guys! Thanks Mike for the freqs. I'll be listening for channel bleed.. Thinking maybe I'll throw the alphamix in the bag just in case it's intolerably bad. Not sure if Wexler would have a feasible 5ch mixer upgrade beyond the X5, maybe I'll give them a call today. -d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProSound Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 I am with Scott SQN 5s or 442. Another option which I think is the best for fast pace shows that need more than 4 channels is (2) 302 mixers linked together very light and good.
