Sennheiser Debuts Evolution Wireless Digital
Sennheiser, has launched Evolution Wireless Digital. The series introduces an easy, app-based workflow while retaining professionalism, multi-channel capability and reliability that users have come to expect of UHF and 1G8 microphones.
According to Vipin Pungalia, Director, Professional Segment, Sennheiser India, “Committed to revolutionize the audio industry, Sennheiser has been at the forefront of innovation in sound from 75 years. We, at Sennheiser have always strived to delight our customers by offering them the best possible solution for their audio needs. We believe in evolving with passion and aspirations of our customers. Keeping this in mind, we have introduced the latest wireless microphones under the evolution series- which is Sennheiser’s most successful microphone range, with an app-based workflow and many professional features under the hood.”
The Smart Assist App
An intelligent set-up automatically creates reliable wireless connections, no wireless expertise is required. You can name the channels to make it easy to stay organized, and have access to all system settings. Bluetooth Low Energy allows for remote access to the system and makes sync’ing with the receiver convenient
Microphone transmitters
Evolution Wireless Digital transmitters have an input dynamic range of 134 dB, five times more than the usual 120 dB. This means that they can pick up everything from a very soft whisper to a jet engine at 50 yards’ distance – and this eliminates the need for a sensitivity setting on the transmitter entirely. The receiver has been set to a gain value covering most applications, which you can easily change if desired. A new user interface makes this super-easy – no complex sub-menus, everything is available at a glance
No frequency calculation
More and more RF is appearing on stage but Evolution Wireless Digital (EW-D) takes on this complexity and helps you go with the flow. The app will scan the environment to find open frequencies. And as EW-D has borrowed tech from Sennheiser’s top Digital 6000 and Digital 9000 series, the wireless microphone systems do not generate any significant intermodulation products. This not only makes for more room in a given frequency window, but the app can also simply set the wireless links at 600 kHz intervals without any frequency calculation and is therefore able to fit in more frequencies than a standard mic system would be able to
Specs in every detail
EW-D has a low latency of 1.9 milliseconds and a transmitter battery life of up to 12 hours with the BA 70 rechargeable battery pack. This will take you all the way from sound-check through to the end of the show and beyond. A bandwidth of 56 MHz with up to 90 channels per band makes it easy to find space even in the most crowded of RF environments
Whimsical audio
As a digital system, EW-D does not use a compander. Gone are the associated noise floor and artefacts – the system will sound like it’s plugged in with a cable
Full range of pro accessories
From newly designed antennas to antenna splitters, boosters, charging sets – the system will grow with your demands to also accommodate larger multi-channel set-ups
EW-D handheld transmitters couple with any Sennheiser or Neumann wireless capsule. This includes the Neumann KK 205 and KK 204, the new Sennheiser MM 435 and MM 445 as well as the Digital 9000 capsules – a first at this price level.
