Zaxcom unveils wireless audio packages
Sep 17, 2007 4:27 PM
The TRX900AA (top) transceiver was developed for users who need a longer running time and the convenience of battery power at a 10-hour run time. The new TRX700 (below) plug-on transmitter/recorder is designed for use with the shotgun-type microphones for ENG applications.
Zaxcom has announced two new digital microphone packages for the wireless transmission and recording of broadcast-quality audio signals.
Zaxcom’s new Broadcaster IFB Package includes four TRX900AA transceivers with integrated IFB functionality, one IFB100 transmitter, one RX4900 single-rack receiver unit with four receivers, and other accessories required to support the wireless transmission of broadcast-quality audio, 2.4GHz IFB signals and RF remote control.
The new ENG Package, designed to provide ENG audio professionals with a stereo bag-to-camera link with integrated confidence monitoring, is comprised of one TRX900AA with internal recording and IFB support, one STA100 stereo adaptor, one stereo receiver and one IFB100 transmitter.
Zaxcom’s TRX series of digital wireless transceivers began with the goal of developing a digital modulation transmitter with no FM-companded audio. Once this goal was accomplished, the company added internal recording of error-free audio tracks. To allow users to control the internal recorder, the company developed an RF receiver for integration into the TRX bodypack to support RF remote control. Later product developments included 2.4GHz IFB support, time code reference with integrated time code jamming, reduced power consumption and heat generation, and stereo transmission.
Both the Broadcaster IFB Package and ENG Package are based on the TRX900AA, part of Zaxcom’s TRX digital wireless microphone product family. The TRX900AA was developed for users who need a longer running time and prefer the convenience of using AA batteries, two of which support a 10-hour run time.
The TRX900AA includes a 12-hour internal recording capability, with audio quality that is indistinguishable from that of a hard-wire connection. The audio files are recorded directly to a Flash memory card in Zaxcom’s fault-tolerant, proprietary format and then transferred as .wav files to either a PC or Mac for post production.
