The D2 seems to be reasonably priced for what it's capable of doing if a 100ft. The transmitter also has a core-audio USB input so you can use a USB audio device to drive it instead of S/PDIF. The transmitter power consumption is only 1.35 watts. The D2 System transmitter is powered by a 5 Volt USB port, so both a stereo mic pre like a SD USBPre2 with its very high quality converter and the transmitter can both be easily powered by a single LiIon battery pack like a 10kmAh or 20k mAh Anker Pro, for completely wireless operation for many hours. The AudioEngine D2 system receiver does have a decent high-end DAC (115dB SN ratio and 0.0015% THD+N), so you can get stereo analog out, but it also has a S/PDIF digital optical output, so it can go to an extra S/PDIF input on a recording interface with no additional conversion.Īt the front-end ahead of the transmitter any analog to S/PDIF converter can be used. The RF connection can be considered to be exactly the same as a S/PDIF cable. You must first convert your line level signal to 24 bit S/PDIF and then it's sent without any signal quality loss. The Audioengine D2 System is such a link.
Consider cabling out to a camera on a tripod, if a multiple camera shoot.Īlso, my experience (in Anchorage, Baltimore, and DC) is that VERY VERY VERY frequently, the sound board in small/medium clubs (medium is capacity to 150 or so) is only mixing the vocals, so that sound board output however captured would be very vocal heavy, which may or may not suit your purpose.Size? Portability? If you just want to go short-range "wireless" with a guitar or bass (instrument level, not "line level') get a JOYO JW-01.įor up to a 100 ft range and "cable-quality", one solution is with a 2.4 Ghz auto channel switching digital link (if it detects data errors that require re-sending packets, it transparently switches to a different pair of channels). Get a digital field recorder, and cable out to the recorder from the board synch up later. Have the board tech check for available output jacks. Or find the best sound in the house and hang your mike/transmitter there. Your wireless mike/transmitter could be placed on or near select speakers with the desired mix. Don’t see why use different frequencies… (Sounds like something the next generation of iPod could handle.) Outputs from the board go to speaker amps. (Not helpful…) A lot of bands use wireless mikes may be a potential conflict with wireless going into and coming out of the board at the same time. My direct anwer to your question is, don’t see why not. Lately, I’ve been paying more attention to audio as feedback from some musicians, not many but a few, has been, great video, but audio not ready for prime time. Often I am recording off of the monitor or monitors aimed back at the band. (Song was Wipeout best take of the night.) If the band’s sound production is good, my audio is, generally, good. Have even poked my cam between cymbals for drummer drama on New Year’s Eve. The usual venue is unique in that I am literally 3 to 5 feet in front of and level with the band for entire sets with my hand held, sometimes moving up to inches from a keyboard or fretboard. I’ve been shooting bands for a few years and been satisfied with my on-camera mike for the most part (currently VX-2100). Others on this forum have more know-how on this, but here’s my reaction to it. Your question interests me and I was hoping someone would respond so that I could learn from it. Retailer or brand suggestions would be great.
TRANSMIT AUDIO WIRELESSLY BLUETOOTH
I figure there’s some bluetooth product out there that will do what I want, but I haven’t been able to find it. So, I’d use an adapter for my current 1/8″ jack, but XLR would be nice for when I have an XL. I have a panasonic dv951, but I’m looking into buying an XL1 or XL2 in the next few months. Is there a product that will wirelessly transmit the soundboard audio to something plugged into the mic jack on my camera? I’d like my audio to come right from the soundboard, but a cable isn’t practical because I move so much while I’m shooting. Recently we’ve decided that my on-camera mike just isn’t going to cut it anymore (the tapes were for personal use, so they could watch stage prescence. 🙂 Now that I’m done with school, I don’t know if any of the same people are here – haven’t had a chance to look around.Īnyway… my question. Hey guys, I used to be on here quite a bit a long time ago, but I didn’t have time for college and the internet.
