Earthworks to Debut WL40V Wireless Capsule Microphone at AES

October 17th, 2011 by

Earthworks Microphones has announced that it will debut its first-ever wireless product, the WL40V Wireless Vocal Microphone Capsule, at AES 2011.

Earthworks goes wireless with the WL40V.

According to Earthworks, the WL40V has been adapted in wireless capsule form from the SR40V Vocal Microphone released earlier this year. The WL40V is designed to maintain the same sound as its wired counterpart, delivering a detailed and realistic vocal sound that requires little-to-no EQ. Its perfect hypercardioid polar pattern and extended flat frequency response translate to a natural on- and off-axis performance, with extremely high levels of clarity and detail.

The wireless capsule is interchangeable with any screw-on-type handheld transmitters that receive a 31.3mm/pitch 1.0mm threading, such as those from Lectrosonics, Line 6 and Shure.

The WL40V will be available through authorized Earthworks dealers Q1 2012 and will come with a 15-year warranty.

The WL40V, and the rest of the Earthworks product line can be seen be at the 131st AES Convention in New York City, October 21-23, Booth #645.
