AnuarYahya Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 very interesting. Looks to be a great solution for wireless in a near future. But those transmitters are huge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RadoStefanov Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 90 feet range line of sight? what about through walls? I love the transmitter battery use: 6 hours with 2 alkaline... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eric Toline Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Not through walls or around corners, etc. Doesn't seem very practical for field use. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ty Ford Posted July 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Did it say no walls or corners? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Echo Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Looks too good to be true. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ty Ford Posted July 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 that's what they said about VHF wireless. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Doc Justice Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 I spent a LOT of time at their booth at NAB this year. The technical aspects of this new system are pretty mind boggling. The "Ultra Wide Band" that they speak of is just a 6GHz frequency. The biggest difference is that ALL of the transmitters are operating on the same frequency. They use TDMA rather than the FDMA transmissions that we're used to. BUT, it's not designed for location sound or field productions. It's made for a broadcast studio, where their "antennas" (actual receivers, rather than just antennas) can be placed around the perimeter to circle the area. All of the transmitters are wirelessly controllable via the base station, which also has Dante connection. It's a pretty incredible system, and I'm hopeful that either Alteros (an offshoot of Audio Technica) will design something for location sound utilizing the technology, or it will at least inspire another manufacturer to look into it!

Ty Ford Posted August 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 AT has a tendency to lay back and seldom seeks the cutting edge, but when they do, it's pretty remarkable. Their AT5040 studio mic is one example. Here's my review of it. https://tyfordaudiovideo.blogspot.com/2013/08/audio-technica-at5040-quad-diaphragm.html?m=1 Regards, Ty Ford Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Blankenship Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Good review. Thanks. What is the max SPL? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
