ANAHEIM, CA – Electro-Voice announced the global launch of the R300, a wireless microphone system targeting the Entry-Level Professional, which brings tour-tested Electro-Voice wireless technology to a more accessible price point.
New features include One-Touch ClearScan and EZsync, which are designed to make the R300 quicker and easier to set up and use than other similarly priced wireless systems. The units also feature a rack-mountable metal receiver, metal bodypack and handheld transmitters and remote-mountable antennas.
Three different microphone configuration packages are available: handheld, headworn, or lapel.
R300 Receiver
The low-profile R300 receiver system features simple controls and an easy-to-read display. Rack-mount kits and front-mount antenna cables are available for professional installation. For applications with up to four receivers in one rack, the APD4+ antenna splitter can provide antenna and power feeds.
BP-300 Bodypack
The new BP-300 metal bodypack transmitter is rugged, compact, and easy to use. The units are powered by two AA batteries for 14 hours of use. They feature a mute function to keep the RF signal live while muting the audio, protecting your channel and preventing noise in the audio system. Two preconfigured bodypack systems are available, with either a lapel or a headworn microphone. The bodypack's TA4 connector allows the unit to be used with other Electro-Voice lapel or headworn microphones.
HT-300 Handheld Transmitter
The HT-300 metal handheld transmitter is made to withstand the rigors of daily use while being comfortable in the hand. The unit's PL22 dynamic microphone capsule offers an all-around solution for speaking, singing, and emcees. The PL22's cardioid pickup pattern rejects surrounding noise, helping to control feedback while still allowing an experienced vocalist to "work" the microphone.
ClearScan
Electro-Voice's ClearScan system scans through the R300's 32 preset channels and selects the clearest channel – all with the touch of a single button.
EZsync
Also as simple as the touch of a button, EZsync uses infrared technology to set the transmitter to the correct frequency, confirming operation in one automatic step.
Other key features include:
- Handheld equipped with PL22 cardioid dynamic microphone element for crisp, clear vocals in any application
- Two preconfigured bodypack/microphone systems available – lapel or headworn
- Bodypack with TA4 connector – compatible with all Electro-Voice lapel and headworn microphones for easy upgrades
- Rugged metal transmitters with backlit LCD display and battery gauge
- 32 preset channels, with compatible groups of 8 channels for simultaneous use
- Detachable half-wave receiver TNC antennas enable use with APD4+ antenna distribution system
- Metal receiver chassis with optional rack-mount ears and front-mount antenna cables.
