Features
The DWM-02N is a digital wireless microphone that
features an interchangeable microphone capsule unit
design, and is intended for use in UHF synthesized
wireless microphone systems. The DWM-02N can be used
in vocal performances, interviews, speeches, and a variety
of other applications.
What is DWX?
DWX refers to Sony’s new digital wireless microphone
system. The DWX series reflects Sony’s extensive
expertise in professional microphones and sound design. It
represents a successful blend of Sony know-how, wireless
technology renowned for stability, and cutting-edge digital
audio technology.
In addition to realizing the high sound quality possible
with a digital system, the DWX series supports multi-
channel simultaneous operation, encrypted transmission,
and metadata transmission for monitoring the status of
multiple transmitters. Using a main link and a separate
additional link, remote control of transmitters from the
receiver is also possible. With its many advanced features,
the system has the potential to revolutionize the workflow
of professional applications.
What is WiDIF-HP?
WiDIF-HP (WiDIF: Wireless Digital Interface Format,
HP: High Profile) is a wireless digital audio interface
format developed by Sony.
It enables highly secure transmission with high sound
quality and low system latency, and supports simultaneous
multi-channel operation.
What is Cross Remote?
Cross Remote is a system that allows transmitters to be
monitored and controlled from a receiver and the Wireless
Studio control software installed on a computer connected
to the receiver.
For example, the settings of a transmitter worn under
clothing can be easily changed over the wireless link.
Wide RF carrier frequency range
The DWM-02N microphone covers an extremely wide RF
carrier frequency range. Depending on the model, the
transmitter can cover bandwidths between 48-MHz and
72-MHz (e.g., 72-MHz with the CE42
1)
) — much wider
than 24-MHz of the analog wireless microphone system.
This remarkably wide coverage on a single model offers
cost efficiency and operational convenience, because it
allows one microphone to be operated in many different
areas.
1) Carrier frequencies differ depending on the model.
Interchangeable microphone capsule
Coupled with a Sony microphone capsule unit (not
supplied), the DWM-02N can be used in vocal
performances, interviews, speeches, and a variety of other
applications. You can mount a microphone capsule unit by
simply screwing it onto the capsule mounting area at the
top of the DWM-02N. The capsule mounting area has
standard dimensions with a diameter of 31.3 mm and a
pitch of 1.0 mm (1.25"/28 thread pitch).
