r/LocationSound on Reddit: Searching for best wireless transmitter & receiver combo
March 29, 2023 -
Hello, I'm looking to upgrade my current transmitter and receiver combo from the [Sennheiser G4] (https://en-us.sennheiser.com/broadcast-wireless-lavalier-microphone-set-ew-112p-g4) to something more reliable. The reason for the upgrade is because when I film the audio quite often has interference. Filming conditions for me are typically in a city area and on occasion up to 100+ feet from transmitter to receiver.
Currently I use a handheld mic ([Sennheiser MD46] (https://en-us.sennheiser.com/high-quality-reporter-microphone-md-46)) that is wirelessly transmitted ([SKP 100 G4] (https://en-us.sennheiser.com/plug-on-transmitter-microphone-skp-100-g4)) to a receiver directly plugged into my camera ([Alpha 7S III] (https://electronics.sony.com/imaging/interchangeable-lens-cameras/all-interchangeable-lens-cameras/p/ilce7sm3-b)). The Sennheiser G4 with lav mic would serve as a backup audio source but the inconsistent quality prevents me from doing this.
From the searching I've done it seems Lectrosonics is highly regarded but I wouldn't know what is best. I'm looking for the best possible transmitter and receiver for lav mic use. I don't care about the brand just that it's the best option. My budget for this is $5,000 but would be willing to pay more as I know the best equipment can tend to be more pricey. I would also be interested in lavalier mics if there are some worth the money; right now I'm just using a cheap $25-$50 lav mic.
I'll try and answer any questions that you might have. I appreciate your input, thank you!

Just to piggyback on u/MathmoKiwi excellent feedback - in your use case (congested RF, long distance, use of handheld/plug-on transmitters, etc.) also carefully consider your Antenna needs and receiver diversity. The challenge handheld mics present is how often the antenna changes orientation as the mic is moved around. For reporting use, this is why you often see a reporter-style mic used with a short xlr lead connected to a body pack transmitter/receiver that's antenna is always oriented up to match the orientation of the receiver's antennas. Reporter body packs will also often provide a talkback receiver so the station can speak to the reporter (tangent) While this is important for any transmitter, when using handheld wireless mics or plug-on transmitters the FM wave changes its orientation corresponding to the orientation of the mic. For this reason using a true diversity receiver (two receiver modules for each receiver channel) will yield better results as you have the option to orient your antennas to match the orientation of the FM wave. The receiver will then seamlessly switch between receiver modules depending on which module is achieving the best signal to noise. Many professional wireless systems have some type of diversity (e.g. Antenna Diversity) but not all are True Diversity. The marketing material will gloss this over so read the specs carefully. So right inline with this is the need/cost for proper antennas and block-specific filters. LPDA shark-fin style receiver antennas with block-specific filters will work well in your situation as long as your not pointing them at the source of strong RF interference. Think of these like you would a hyper-cardioid shotgun mic that is most sensitive where it's pointed and rejects from sides/back. RFVenue also makes an interesting antenna called the Diversity Fin that is optimized for mics that change orientation with an LPDA fin antenna combined with omni antennas (two connections) that is optimized for mics that change position. I can't say strongly enough how beneficial block-specific (band-pass) filters are. These filters go between your antennas and receiver ensuring your receiver is only hearing frequencies within the range of your transmitters. In congested RF environments these will lower the noise floor, increasing the signal-to-noise ratio which is what good RF is all about. Regardless of the choice between a new digital or analog system as the same laws of radio frequency physics apply to both. Digital is not a silver bullet for RF and in most cases makes RF best practice even more important. Again, try to get beyond the marketing hype and really dig into what a digital system has to push over that RF carrier to fully appreciate what's needed. Lastly, if you have any budget left over (LOL) look into receiver/transmitter packages that provide a wide tuning range in order to take advantage additional new groups/channels that are less congested than 470-608 NA bands. In Canada we have some almost unused bands in the 900 range available which are a dream to use. Lav mics? I'm a big fan of DPA and Cos-11s.

People are often shocked at the price leap from prosumer wireless (such as the Sennheiser G4 wireless. Although, I'd recommend the Sony UWP-D21 as a better choice instead) to even the cheapest professional wireless. In your shoes though, you've got sufficient budget to get proper wireless. I'd suggest you check out: Shure Axient Digital. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1580031-REG/shure_ad3_g57_ad3_axient_digital_wireless.html https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1683015-REG/shure_adx5dus_a_dual_channel_portable_receiver_470_636mhz.html https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1404859-REG/shure_adx1_g57_adx1_diversity_showlink_enabled_bodypack.html Sony DWX Digital wireless. (you won't have such a long wait to get them as with Shure and their massive backorders. Plus the Sony plug on transmitter has remote controls, the Shure one doesn't :-/ Sony is a bit cheaper too) https://daleproaudio.com/collections/shop?fbclid=IwAR0ujss4SJFXIMnokrojxTEPvIklidbkiWwT0QfAPv8cxOIXmqhZCfBlstA&q=sony%20dwx#/filter:ss_price:1000:1500/filter:ss_price:1500:2000/filter:ss_price:2000:* Or Wisycom (they're not digital however, but have a few other good features of their own and are good value wireless): https://www.gothamsound.com/search?result=wisycom&sort_bef_combine=field_product_display_price+DESC

r/LocationSound on Reddit: Lavalier mic with transmitter and receiver
June 5, 2022 -
Hi so I have a YouTube channel where I like to vlog and go around in public and go to beautiful places in nature too, I use a normal Audio recorder with a lavalier mic but I want to upgrade to the Sony uwp-d21 since it has transmitters that sync the audio alone, would it be compatible with my canon eos m50 camera? Also how do those work, I thought it was something easy like just press a button and the transmitter and receiver just connect but apparently there’s a lot of channels and the audio easily messes up, how would I be able to use them and learn about the right ways to use all that?

I'm not going to give you the answers you want, but this is a place to begin your professional audio journey. Starting with the second part of your question... Wireless devices use radio frequencies that can compete with everything that uses radio frequencies: broadcast television, radio, cordless telephones, doorbells, fire trucks and ambulances and police and... Usually the national government sets up defined allocations of block of frequencies based on their intended use. All remote controlled cars from Target (and similar consumer devices) get a small chunk of frequencies. All FM radio stations get a chunk. All cell phone carriers (Verizon, AT&T, etc) get a chunk. All television station get a chunk. The fun of wireless microphones is they are built to operate within the frequencies assigned to televisions. But you might have a local station broadcasting on TV channel 21, whereas my town does not. I could use a mic/receiver on TV channel 21, but you would have to set your mic/receiver to a TV channel that is blank in your location. TV stations are usually the primary purpose for the frequencies that wireless mics/receivers use. But they're not the only devices. A TV channel that worked for you yesterday might not be clear for your use today. So you need to use a different, clear frequency - by changing the channel it is using. So, you find a clear frequency that is available on your mic transmitter & receiver, set both to the same frequency, and hope no other devices cause interference. If so, you just change the frequency you're using. (The more expensive the mic system, the more features you have to avoid actual interference. Like pilot tones, digital packeting, etc.) The first part of your question deals with audio flow. This actually gets more complicated than frequencies because there are so many options. First, appreciate the difference between mic level audio and line level audio - literally 2 very different volumes. Find out what your camera can handle. There are general relationships between the physical connector (1/8", miniXLR, XLR, 1/4", etc) and the style of audio (consumer line level, pro line level, mic level, and balanced/unbalanced, phantom power, etc.) Typically a DSLR camera uses a mic or line level 1/8" balanced connection. So you need to convert the output from your mic receiver to whatever physical and audible options are available on your camera. Sometimes a passive converter (cable with 2 different ends) will be fine. Other times you need an active conversion like an audio mixer. Many wireless mic systems can offer an option that matches the needs of your camera right out-of-the-box. Check the user manuals of both your camera and the mic system. Read about the input and output options of them. Discover the language they use and learn more based on those words and settings. It can be hard to "know" what works without playing with actual equipment and settings. I like the articles by Sweetwater. Wireless mic setup guide is a good place to begin: https://www.sweetwater.com/sweetcare/articles/wireless-microphone-setup-guide/ RF 101 talks more about the frequencies and avoiding problems: https://www.sweetwater.com/insync/rf101-basics-wireless-mics-in-ear-systems/

I'm trying to find a lav mic set up to record 4 people sitting at a table playing games but I'm having trouble finding one that doesn't split the audio in stereo when you use more then 2. Any suggestions would really help my budget is $500 and I need a max and minimum of 4 mics

Hire a pro. You're over your head.

You are going to want to hire someone else to do this. $500 is not nearly enough budget for four lavs. Besides, all going into one channel on the camera means you can’t remix it later, and if you’re also the shooter, you’re not going to be able to focus on the audio enough to do a good live mix. If you absolutely MUST do it yourself, I’d spend the $500 getting a good omnidirectional boundary mic and placing it in the center of the table and doing a wired feed to your camera.
