About
A lengthy title, so let’s break it down. Two channels means a single diversity receiver that receives and outputs signals from two seperate beltpack transmitters. Those signals are pure digital for transmission and are only converted back to analogue when output to your recorder or camera using the included XLR or 3.5mm cables. Or you can keep them in the digital domain and output them over USB-C to your phone or computer. The digital signals can also be recorded in 32bit float onto the microSD card included with each transmitter. 32bit has such wide headroom that even if you badly screw up your gain settings and have low or overloaded signals transmitted back to the receiver, you’ll likely be able to get useable audio off the onboard backup recording.
These units have a number of smart features that bring wireless into the modern age. For instance substituting that backup recording into your edit is greatly aided by the fact that these units also accept timecode, either via cable at each transmitter or using Deity’s iPhone app. That app can use GPS to determine where you are in the world and consequently what frequencies are available to you. It can then scan the available bandwidth and assign the two best frequencies to the system automatically without having to physically access the units (which will make your talent happy). You can also trigger the onboard recording remotely using the app as well as set transmission power. The included detachable whip antennas with standard SMA connectors let you use external shark fin antennas and integrate the receiver into larger professional systems. The receiver and transmitters both run on AA batteries.
Wireless microphones do not come with AA batteries
