Our new “A” package including a Sound Devices 888 with NoiseAssist and SL-2 loaded with a Wisycom MCR54. The MCR54 receives the signals from four Wisycom MTP60 transmitters with DPA 6060 microphones.
Today’s sets aren’t always chosen for the lack of ambient noise or the available wireless spectrum. Sometimes that interview has to take place where bunches of radio mics are already operating or the air conditioning can’t be turned off. Stadiums and arenas are some of the most hostile environments for wireless mics. What happens when one of the the talent has to peel off with one of the cameras? Is a bag drop the best solution for a quick car drive around? This package was developed to solve these increasingly common concerns. Now for the details:
Sound Devices 888
- 8 ultra low-noise, 8-Series microphone preamplifiers
- 16 channels, 10 buses, 20 tracks
- 16 channels of Dante I/O
- 256 GB internal SSD, 2 SD card slots
- USB control surface support via MCU
- Dugan Automixing or MixAssist for up to 16 channels
- NoiseAssist noise suppression plugin
Sound Devices SL-2
- Supports up to 8 channels of audio.
- Accepts two UniSlot or SuperSlot wireless receivers from Lectrosonics and Wisycom.
- Built-in antenna distribution with antenna powering.
- Two auxiliary MCX antenna ports for connecting other receivers or RF distribution.
- Two TA3 AES3 inputs for 4 channels of digital audio.
- Two DC Outputs via Hirose 4-pin connectors, each supplying up to 500 mA.
Wisycom MCR54
- Four channels True Diversity receiver (8 Receiver boards!)
- DSP Analogue & Digital Audio Output (AES3)
- Up to 790 MHz bandwidth in 470/1260 MHz range
- Next Gen Multiband front-end filtering:
- High Q electronically tunable filter in 470-798 MHz
- 1st narrowband filter
- 2nd narrowband filter
- Wideband and Narrowband DSP-FM operation (SW selectable):
- Narrowband allows more 50% band efficiency
- Narrowband allows about 3dB extra sensitivity and noise immunity
- Extreme low noise VCO with ultrafast spectrum scan for optimal quick & easy setup
- Automatic scan & transmitter programming through infrared and Bluetooth 5 long range
Wisycom MTP60
- The multi-band MTP60 has a tuning range of 470 to 1075MHz
- Monitor & control with Bluetooth via Wisycom Manager software or mobile device apps to adjust parameters in real time
- Advanced linear technology (L20mW) eliminates intermodulation distortion for more robust signal
- Embedded recorder to record directly on the MTP60 memory card and integrated Linear Time Code decoding
- Enhanced robustness against self-interferences and antenna performances thru a proprietary “intermodulation cancellation” circuit
- FPGA based signal processing allows easy switching between wide and narrow band operation
- Bluetooth interface and mobile app allows full control from mobile or tablet
- Bluetooth 5 Long Range (Class 1, 100mW) with the MRK16 as a bridge allows remote control the MTP60 over hundreds of meters
- Max input level 26dBu (15.5 V clipping) to connect directly to mixers and instruments
- 48V phantom power to use wired mic thru the PHA60 accessory
