EW 500 G4-935 AW+

Wireless G4 Handheld Microphone System

Overview
The EW 500 Wireless G4 Handheld Microphone System with e935 Capsule from Sennheiser is the latest addition to their evolution series of wireless handheld microphone systems. It includes an SKM 500 G4 handheld transmitter with an MMD935 cardioid capsule, an EM 300-500 G4 wireless receiver, a GA3 rackmount kit, and a microphone clip. It can be used in several environments for live stage, theater, rehearsal, and presentation applications.

Features
The handheld rackmount system features 3520 frequencies and is tunable in 25 MHz steps. There are 20 fixed-frequency banks with up to 32 compatible frequency presets and 6 user banks with up to 32 user-programmable frequencies. The receiver's menu-driven backlit OLED display shows current frequency, frequency bank and channel number, metering of RF level, and more. The transmitter and the receiver synchronize channel and frequency at the touch of a button. In addition, Sennheiser Control Cockpit Software (download) offers easy handling, control, and maintenance for the Digital Wireless System. It provides a global overview of all network-enabled devices, shows all status information, and makes setting adjustments very easy.
