Audio-Technicas industry leading installation microphone series, UniPoint,
has been completely re-engineered, utilising breakthrough audio and mechanical design improvements, to set new standards for signal quality, reliability, and ease of installation.
Also re-engineered is Audio-Technicas professional mid-budget 3000 Series
Wireless systems, now incorporating the companys Automatic Frequency
Scanning functionality, as found on its flagship 4000 and 5000 Series systems.
The original full-line miniaturized, condenser range of installation sound
microphones, UniPoint is used extensively in broadcast studio, in desktop, podium,
suspension and boundary applications. Comprising over 30 gooseneck mounted,
boundary and hanging models, UniPoint is designed for the widest range of applications,
in sound reinforcement, broadcast and recording.
New features include UniGuard RFI-shielding innovations for unsurpassed
immunity from radio frequency interference, new interchangeable condenser elements
(cardioid, hypercardioid, omnidirectional and UniLine line cardioid),
superior off-axis rejection for improved gain before feedback, 80 Hz UniSteep
filter for removal of unwanted low frequencies without affecting vocal quality,
and two-stage foam windscreen for dramatically improved resistance to P-pops
and other breath blasts.
New podium microphones also offer an improved, easy-to-adjust gooseneck with
virtually no memory, permitting quick positioning, and a robust
design that resists inadvertent repositioning. Clear, high-output performance
is assured by new interchangeable condenser elements available in four pickup
patterns: cardioid, hypercardioid, omnidirectional and the new UniLine line
cardioid with its tight 90 pickup pattern.
The next-generation UniPoint boundary microphones are engineered for maximum
flexibility; most models incorporate Audio-Technicas new, unique PivotPoint
rotating output connector that allows the cable to exit from either the rear
or the bottom of the microphone. The U891R, U891RW and U891RC boundary mics
feature programmable switching plus an LED status indicator for a high level
of control flexibility in conference and boardroom applications.
The latest UniPoint hanging microphones are designed for suspension over choirs,
instrumental groups and theater stages. The hanging microphones feature a low-profile
design, available in black or white. New interchangeable capsules (cardioid,
hypercardioid, omnidirectional and UniLine) offer improved on-axis pickup. With
robust construction and unobtrusive appearance, these hanging mics offer sophisticated
and versatile sound reinforcement solutions.
The new 3000A Series 200 frequency agile, UHF wireless systems, represents
a high performance, professionally specd, mid-budget solution, for broadcast
rental and production applications. The inclusion of A-Ts Automatic Frequency
Scanning technology greatly enhances operation, automatically searching and
setting the best available frequency in the spectrum, avoiding interference
and intermodulation problems. When operating multi-channel systems, the function
provides for interference free frequency configuration of each receiver at the
touch of a button. Up to 16 simultaneous systems per frequency band are compatible,
for a total maximum of 32 simultaneous systems across two bands.
The new ATW-R3100 receiver benefits from a newly designed high-specification
front-end filtering system, along with the latest Audio-Technica 1/2-wave antenna
technology to maximise both simultaneous frequency use and range.
The 3000 Series comprises two system options: the ATW-3110A UHF UniPak
Transmitter System, comprising the ATW-R3100 true diversity receiver and the
ATW-T310 UniPak body-pack transmitter; and the ATW-3141A UHF Handheld Dynamic
Microphone System, which also includes the ATW-R3100 receiver, plus the ATW-T341
handheld microphone/transmitter.
The full range of Audio-Technica sub-miniature condenser clip mics, studio
and OB production microphones, and 4000 and 5000 Series networkable wireless
systems will be on show, as well as the companys extensive industry leading
range of shotgun models.
