2 Clip-On Transmitters with Built-In Mics + 2 Discreet Lavalier Mics
- Each of the compact, clip-on transmitters can be quickly attached to subjects for fast, run-and-gun-style shoots; you can clip it to clothing, slide it into a shirt pocket, place it on a podium, or hold it in your hand.
- Its built-in miniature condenser microphone captures clear and natural voice tonality. The mic's omnidirectional polar pattern picks up sound in all directions, making it easy to position on your talent and get high-quality, intelligible speech.
- For a more discreet look, you can plug the included omni lavalier microphone into the transmitter's 3.5mm input jack. The input can accept mic- or line-level signals, making it fully capable of accommodating a variety of external sources, including an audio feed from a mixer or receiver.
- Since your subjects may speak at very different volumes, Saramonic outfitted the Blink 500 ProX TX with dedicated gain buttons to allow quick and effortless adjustment of the signal level. Utilize the tactile mute function to cut the signal in a hurry without having to adjust the volume.
- The high-contrast OLED screen shows real-time input metering, input-gain level, mute icon, wireless strength, and battery life.
- An internal 10-hour lithium-ion battery keep you going on extra-long shoots or multiple run-and-gun gigs in a day. Recharge the battery via the USB-C port. The transmitter can also be powered via USB, even while in use, giving you near unlimited operating time.
- A furry windscreen is included for each mic/transmitter to reduce wind noise on outdoor shoots. A foam windscreen is also supplied for each lavalier microphone.
Dual-Channel Receiver with USB-C Connector
- Simply plug the dual-channel receiver into the USB-C port on your mobile device, the USB port supplies the receiver with power and provides a cable-free digital connection to your phone or tablet.
- Just power up the receiver and transmitters to access reliable wireless audio functionality in an instant.
- Advanced technology invisibly handles the complicated tasks such as switching channels to avoid dropouts, leaving you with a streamlined and simple system that requires no tedious manual configuration.
- A 3.5mm headphone jack allows for headphone monitoring.
Quality Sound for 1- or 2-Person Shoots
- Blink 500 ProX systems utilize 16-bit / 48 kHz digital audio resolution to give you quality sound at a budget-friendly price point.
- Compared to the built-in microphones on cameras and mobile devices, Blink 500 ProX systems offer considerably improved fidelity and clarity with less noise.
- Within the 2.4 GHz spectrum, the Blink 500 ProX boasts automatic channel hopping to mitigate noise and dropouts at a line-of-sight distance of up to 328 feet and double the maximum distance of the standard Blink 500. For optimal performance, environments with limited Wi-Fi / 2.4 GHz traffic and minimal physical obstructions are recommended.
- Since the Blink 500 ProX receiver is a dual-channel receiver, it can simultaneously handle two Blink 500 ProX wireless transmitters for 2-person recordings.
- The receiver features a selectable mono/stereo output mode, allowing it to appropriately feed signal from one transmitter into both input channels of your device (via mono mode) or from two transmitters into separate input channels of your device (via stereo mode).
- If you need to expand beyond that, you can use up to 18 Blink 500 ProX mics at once at the same location.
