4 way Rack Case - Sennheiser EW100 G3 GB |
8 way Rack Case - Sennheiser EW300 G3 GB |
Walker Sound has received an increasing numbers of inquiries from schools and colleges regarding our wireless microphone systems and DPA headset microphones. The combination of these two items make a huge difference to the results of any theatrical play, show or musical production. For years, these have been the chosen and preferred headset microphone for theaters on Broadway and London’s West End, as well as broadcasters, and many television shows. This is due to its pristine and outstanding sound quality and durability.
The DPA 4066 headsets are flesh / beige in colour which are visually unobtrusive. For a lower cost alternative to the DPA 4066, we can also supply the Micronic BPE3 headset.
THE SYSTEM
The wireless microphone consist of a body pack battery powered transmitter, and mains powered diversity receiver. As an included accessory, the body pack wireless systems come with either a ME2 ( omni directional ) or ME4 ( directional ) lavalier mic. The DPA headset microphone is an added option which is used with the body pack transmitter. Pictures of these can be seen below.
The wireless systems come in pre wired rack cases in combinations of fours and eights and are also available individually. The rack cases come completely pre wired, with their power and aerial distribution units. The operator only has to plug in a single mains plug, two aerials with signal boosters and a XLR plug multiway loom ( supplied ) to a mixing desk. Walker Sound can supply up to four, eight way rack cases with DPA 4066 headset microphones to give a total number of thirty two individual channels,
DISCOUNT
By way of discount to schools and colleges, Walker Sound include the cost of the ASA 1 Antenna Distribution, AB3 GB Antenna Booster, and A1031-U Omni directional Antenna with every system of 4 or more receivers. Pictures of these can be seen below.
Subject to your location, number of wireless systems, and total cost, Walker Sound will deliver and collect, plus advise on setting up ( on site ) and correct usage of the wireless systems and headset systems free of charge. This ensures that the equipment arrives as it left our premises, in good order. Also, most couriers companies will not cover the additional insurance value for one of these 8 way rack cases ( insurance value £ 7,000 ), plus 8 DPA 4066 headsets ( insurance value £ 3,500 ).
This not only provides a good special discounted price for schools and colleges, but also peace of mind for staff and teachers who may not be technically minded. Also this reduces the possibilities of incorrect set up of the wireless systems, and damage to the DPA headsets.
WHAT WE DO
Before a wireless system is used at your location, the frequencies have to be set up to avoid " Intermodulation Distortion" . Intermodulation Distortion will affect the reception of one or all of the receivers if not set up correctly. Although perhaps your chosen frequencies may seem well spaced, but harmonics can be generated and transmitted along with the original signal. These harmonics can cause interfere with other channels.
Frequencies are pre set to so as not to interfere with the neighboring frequencies, this is done by using the recommended set frequencies. We can also prepare our wireless systems to be used in conjunction with your existing wireless system frequencies, subject to the frequency range band, and compatibility. We also supply a free JMFG frequency license for the duration of the hire. See Note 1. below.
A full user guide is included with every wireless system hire. Notes for the correct use for the DPA headsets ( also supplied ) should be issued to all performers, dressers and assistants to minimize damage.
NOTES
Please note that our DPA headsets have 3.5mm locking jack plugs which are compatible with all of the Sennheiser Evolution range. If you wish to use these headsets in your own transmitter packs, please check the plug type, or we can advise you if you supply details of the make and model.
Walker Sound also have available a comprehensive range of sound and lighting equipment for hire, including Meyer UPA-1C loudspeakers, which have also become an industry standard for theater presentations. Please see the main Hire Price List for equipment list and prices.
We also install and lease sound and lighting equipment to schools and colleges for new or refurbishment projects.
Please see the Contact Details page, for further information and quotations. |
