The new transmitter inputs offer a dynamic range of 134 Db, what it implies, according to manufacturer's data, that it is not necessary to adjust the input sensitivity.

Sennheiser EW-D offers a digital audio of 24 Bit, processing to reduce losses and deliver clean, interference-free transmission at maximum range of 8,3 metre. The system operates on a wide bandwidth UHF 56 mhz, allowing you to offer a clean channel between 2.250 available frequencies.

Different versions

Evolution Wireless Digital is available in several models. the handheld versions they have a system of interchangeable microphone capsules and can be purchased with a dynamic cardioid capsule 835, or without capsule, allowing users to choose from several Sennheiser and Neumann.
