Sony wireless microphone systems have earned an enviable reputation for their
outstanding performance and reliability. In day-to-day use in the harsh
environment of location recording, and in theater and studio operations, they
continue to be the equipment of choice for artists and engineers. Sony
demonstrates its long-term commitment to the development of wireless
microphone technology with the introduction of the MB-8N Tuner Base Unit and
WRU-8N UHF Synthesized Tuner Unit, which together represent a breakthrough
in performance, flexibility and features.
Although only 1U high, the MB-8N accommodates up to four tuner units – a built-
in antenna divider making it easy to daisy-chain up to four of these base units to
form a 16-channel system. The WRU-8N Tuner Unit achieves exceptional
standards of RF performance. It features space diversity reception, and a wide
dynamic range with low levels of noise and distortion.
The ability to remotely control and monitor the status of complex wireless
systems is becoming increasingly important, and the MB-8N/WRU-8N
combination excels in the level of remote operation and
monitoring it provides. Over standard Ethernet
connections, a complete system can be
set up and controlled from a PC
running the supplied GUI software.
This includes the store and recall of
different channel configurations, a
feature that is particularly useful for
location use and equipment rental
organizations. A sepa-rate audio
monitoring feature is included to allow the individual outputs
of the tuner units to be checked.
The MB-8N and WRU-8N are at the cutting edge of wireless microphone
technology. They are bringing new standards of performance and functionality to
wireless microphone systems.
