ENHANCES ITS 3000 SERIES WIRELESS MICROPHONE SYSTEMS
—
Enhancements include up to 1001 selectable UHF frequencies in 25 kHz
spacing, antenna power, new I Band, transmitter backlit screens and

STOW,
OH — As part of their ongoing efforts to provide state-of-the-art,
market-driven wireless solutions, Audio-Technica,
a leading innovator in transducer technology for over 45 years, announces
updates to its 3000
Series Frequency-agile True Diversity UHF Wireless Systems.
Now offering up to 1001 selectable UHF frequencies in 25 kHz spacing
in three available frequency bands (including the new I Band), Audio-Technica's
upgraded 3000 Series delivers outstanding professional performance.
Nine new pre-coordinated frequency scan groups simplify selection
of usable frequencies in a multi-channel wireless system. The versatile
UniPak® body-pack transmitter features a backlit screen for easy
reading in low-light situations and a locking battery door for added
security. A three-position sliding cover on the transmitter's control
panel prevents accidental shutoff or channel-switching.
The
3000 Series is available with either a dynamic or condenser handheld
transmitter featuring robust metal construction and slim ergonomic
design. The ATW-T341b handheld transmitter includes the stage-proven
Artist Elite® AE4100
Cardioid Dynamic element, while the ATW-T371b handheld
transmitter features the Artist Series ATM710
Cardioid Condenser element.
Features:
- New I band frequency range (482.000 – 507.000
MHz) in addition to existing C band (541.500–566.375 MHz) and
D band (655.500 – 680.375 MHz).
- 25 kHz frequency spacing: Each 3000 Series wireless
system features 25 kHz spacing, providing a choice of 996 UHF frequencies
