Saramonic BLINK800 Overview

Key Features

• For Guitar, Bass, and Keyboard
• 1/4" Plug-In Transmitter
• 1/4" Plug-In Receiver
• 5.8 GHz Range Avoids Common Interference
• Easy to Use, Plug & Play Operation
• Low Latency for Tighter Performance
• Always-On Audio Transmission
• Lightweight Miniature Housing
• Internal Rechargeable 6-Hour Batteries
• 3 Systems at Once Max, Up to 197' Range

With its truly wire-free design, extraordinarily simple operation, and interference-reducing 5.8 GHz technology, the Saramonic Blink 800 B3 offers guitar, bass, and keyboard players a reliable digital wireless instrument system that grants freedom on stage while delivering sound quality that's optimized for instruments. The lightweight and miniature transmitter and receiver, which are pre-paired at the factory, utilize 1/4" TS male plugs for direct connection to your instrument and pedalboard, amp, or mixer. Their internal rechargeable batteries provide up to six hours of run time to handle multiple shows with ease.

Whereas most wireless systems work in the 2.4 GHz, UHF, and VHF frequency ranges, the Blink 800 B3 sits in the 5.8 GHz zone, effectively eliminating the most common sources of wireless interference. Boasting an operating range of up to 196.9 feet (line-of-sight), the B3 ensures dependable reception, even in large venues. In the event that several musicians need wireless setups, three Blink 800 systems can be used at the same time (additional systems available separately). Since they automatically change channels to maintain optimal performance, there's no manual configuration required.

Power On for Great Sound

The Blink 800 B3 is an ideal solution to give you freedom to be untethered by a cable while performing on stage or in the studio. Because there are no settings or menus to have to worry about, it serves as an extremely simple wireless instrument system. Pre-paired out of the box, there's nothing to do besides connect your instrument to the TX-635 transmitter and connect the RX-635 receiver to your amplifier, pedalboard, effect processor, or mixer's input, turn them on, and start playing. All of the complicated aspects of using a wireless instrument system happen seamlessly in the background, letting you concentrate on playing and getting a great performance.

Designed for Instruments

Unlike many traditional wireless systems that have an audio gate on the transmitter and receiver, the Blink 800 B3 is specially designed for instruments. This means the wireless transmission is always on, allowing for the subtle attack and detailed prolonged sustain that exemplify a fine instrument and performance. So, you don't worry about your strum's sustain being cut off before the ringing ends, or your solo's precision being muddied by a slow attack. Blink 800 B3 is made to capture your entire performance and has the stuff to not miss the fine details you spent a lifetime perfecting, finally giving you the freedom to move with your music.

Advanced 5.8 GHz Technology

The Blink 800 B3 operates in the 5.8 GHz frequency range, which is much higher and much less congested than 2.4 GHz, UHF, and VHF. It automatically and intelligently changes channels to avoid static noise and audio dropouts and features a strong 10mW of wireless output power, providing an impressive range of up to 196.9' in open spaces. With up to six hours of operating time from integrated lithium-ion batteries, you won't be wasting money on disposable batteries. The transmitter and receiver can be charged with included USB Type-A to USB Type-C cables and may be powered in use or recharged in the field with portable USB battery packs.

Power On for Great Sound

The Blink 800 B2 is an ideal solution to give you freedom to be untethered by a cable when using a handheld mic for interviews or a powered shotgun microphone on a boompole. Because there are no settings or menus to have to worry about, it serves as an extremely simple wireless plug-on mic system. Pre-paired out of the box, there's nothing to do besides connect your XLR microphone to the TX-XLR transmitter and connect the RX-XLR receiver to your camera, recorder, or mixer's XLR input, turn them on, and starting shooting. All of the complicated aspects of using a wireless mic system happen seamlessly in the background, letting you concentrate on storytelling and getting a great shot.

Designed for Dynamic and Powered Microphones

Since the TX-XLR transmitter does not supply phantom power, it supports operation with dynamic microphones and battery-powered condenser mics. This makes it a great companion for traditional handheld mics as well as many pole-mounted shotgun microphones.

Advanced 5.8 GHz Technology

The Blink 800 B2 operates in the 5.8 GHz frequency range, which is much higher and much less congested than 2.4 GHz, UHF, and VHF.

The Sennheiser XSW-D PORTABLE LAVALIER SET is an easy entry point into the world of wireless microphone audio for vloggers, video shooters, and mobile journalists looking for a camera-mount system that's cost effective, as well as quick and simple to use. It puts world-renowned Sennheiser sound quality in a plug-and-record, 1-button digital system that anyone can operate. Plug it in, power it up, and you're immediately up and running, instantly lightening your workload so you can concentrate on creating.

The system connects to a DSLR, camcorder, or a tablet/smartphone (with additional adapter) to capture crisp-sounding interviews or dialog for video shoots.

Unboxing the System

• The ME 2-II lavalier microphone clips to your talent's clothing and plugs into the locking 3.5mm input on the bodypack transmitter. The transmitter is designed to only transmit signal from a mic (not from a mixer or recorder).
• The exceptionally lightweight and compact transmitter can be easily concealed in a pocket or discreetly attached to the waist with the included belt clip.
• The equally discreet and lightweight receiver mounts to your camera shoemount with the supplied adapter. Connect its 3.5mm output to the 3.5mm audio input of your camera via the included coiled cable.

Plug In, Turn On: It Works

• The 1-button, 1-LED concept with single-button interface and status indicator effortlessly handles power and linking tasks for you.

(For optimal results, use of the XSW-D is recommended in environments with limited Wi-Fi / 2.4 GHz traffic.)

Step Up to Sennheiser Sound Quality

• Sennheiser wireless mic systems are an industry standard, prized by professionals for their clarity and reliability. The XSW-D system allows first-time and budget-conscious users to get their hands on genuine Sennheiser sound quality without breaking the bank.
• The ever-popular ME 2-II lavalier microphone delivers a natural sound optimized for speech intelligibility. Its omnidirectional polar pattern ensures that the sound remains consistent, even when the talent's head moves away from the mic.

Easy 2.4 GHz Digital Wireless

• Nothing ruins a take like hearing the weather report coming through your mic. Unlike traditional analog wireless systems, the XSW-D digital system operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band, away from interruptions and dropouts caused by TV and radio channel interference.
• Thanks to Sennheiser's channel allocation and interference management technology, the system selects the best operating frequency and automatically switches to a clean channel, providing reliable transmission at a distance up to 250' line of sight.
• For optimal performance, users are encouraged to maintain as direct a line of sight as possible between the transmitter and receiver.

Expand Your System as Your Needs Grow

• The functionality of this XSW-D PORTABLE LAVALIER SET can easily be expanded by adding XSW-D series transmitters and receivers, as your needs evolve.
• With this set, adding the XSW-D XLR FEMALE TX plug-on transmitter allows you to connect a dynamic handheld microphone for man-on-the-street-style interviews, or a self-powered shotgun mic for booming.
• For clearer speech in noisy environments, you can substitute the included lav mic with a Sennheiser-compatible headset mic.

License-Free Operation Worldwide

• Because the XSW-D system operates in the license-free 2.4 GHz band, you don't have to worry about local licensing laws, frequency coordination, and other technical hassles.

Sennheiser MKE 400

Key Features

• Mobile Journalist, Vlogger, Run & Gun
• For Cameras and Smartphones
• 100-Hour Run Time via AAA Batteries
• Built-In Wind Protection and Shockmount
• Locking 3.5mm TRS Out & Headphone Port
• 3.5mm TRS and TRRS Output Cables
• Highly Directional Sound Pickup
• 3-Stage Gain Control and Low-Cut Filter
• Furry Windscreen for Outdoor Use
• Mounts to Camera Cold Shoe

Add the compact and lightweight second-generation Sennheiser MKE 400 directional shotgun microphone to your camera- or smartphone-based shooting rig to make an easy upgrade in sound quality, even in noisy environments, without having to carry around a cumbersome windscreen and suspension system. Plus, it offers a 3-stage gain control and a low-cut filter so you can optimize the sound of your recording right at the mic.

Thanks to its integral wind protection, built-in shock absorption, long battery life, and headphone monitoring port, the MKE 400 is a truly capable solution for capturing clear audio—a perfect companion for vloggers, run-and-gun videographers, and mobile journalists who need a quality camera-mount mic that will never get in the way of the shot.

To ensure that you're prepared for any shoot, the MKE 400 includes two locking 3.5mm audio cables—one features a standard TRS plug for compatibility with cameras and DSLRs, while the other utilizes a TRRS plug to connect with your smartphone or tablet. Plus, the supplied furry windshield can be slipped over the MKE 400 to provide increased protection from wind noise when shooting in outdoor environments.

Second-Generation Upgrades

Along with its redesigned appearance, the second-generation MKE 400 boasts significant upgrades over the original MKE 400 to make it even more effective and versatile.

• Swappable 3.5mm TRS and TRRS output cables
• 3.5mm headphone port with volume control
• 3-stage gain control (the original MKE 400 had two gain positions)
• Auto-power function
• Integrated wind protection
• Furry windshield included for outdoor wind protection
• Compatible with Sennheiser's CL 35 USB-C cable (available separately) for direct digital connection to a mobile device's USB Type-C port

Compact and Lightweight

Measuring just 5" long and weighing only 3.3 ounces, the MKE 400 is an unobtrusive companion for your camera- or smartphone-based video rig; it will never intrude on the shot and it's so light that you'll forget it's even there. Also, the integral shoe mount allows the MKE 400 to be attached directly to your camera, no external hardware required.

Highly Directional Sound Pickup

Most built-in camera and smartphone microphones are omnidirectional to pick up sound from all directions, which results in undue noise and ambience. The MKE 400 uses a supercardioid polar pattern enhanced by an acoustic interference tube to focus on sources in front of the mic while attenuating side- and rear-entry sound. Low-noise electronics and a sensitive condenser element allow it to deliver more detailed audio than the mics typically found in cameras, mobile devices, and portable recorders.

Quick and Secure Hookup to Camera, Smartphone, or Tablet

The MKE 400's 3.5mm output port can be connected to a range of devices using the two supplied coiled cables, each featuring a locking 3.5mm TRS plug on one end that prevents accidental disconnection at the mic.

One cable is terminated with a standard 3.5mm TRS plug for compatible hookup to your camera, DSLR, or portable handheld audio recorder, while the other cable has a 3.5mm TRRS plug to allow direct connection to mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets.

Headphone Monitoring Port

A vital step before recording audio is to check your levels and monitor your sound. While some cameras have a headphone jack, not all do, and that's where the headphone monitoring output comes into play. Plug any 3.5mm headphone directly into the MKE 400 and use the integrated volume control to make sure the sound is clear.

Long Battery Life

The MKE 400 can run for up to 100 hours on a pair of AAA batteries (available separately), so you'll be able to knock out plenty of shoots before needing new batteries. The low-battery indicator lets you know when you have approximately three hours of operating time remaining. The MKE 400's auto-power function uses plug-in power (2 to 10V) from your device to automatically turn it on and off, preventing unnecessary battery drain.

Internal Suspension Mount Minimizes Handling Noise

The MKE 400 incorporates internal shock absorption to reject the transfer of vibrations such as camera/smartphone handling noise. Plus, the bottom of the MKE 400 features a camera shoe mount, ensuring simple attachment to your camera or shoe-equipped stand or gimbal.

Built-In Wind Protection Minimizes Wind Noise

Knowing that the MKE 400 may be used in challenging shooting conditions, Sennheiser designed the MKE 400 with built-in wind protection, enabling the mic to lessen undesirable wind noise from breezes, fans, heaters, and air conditioners without requiring that you slip on a separate foam windscreen. For maximum reduction of wind noise in outdoor environments, use the included furry windshield.

Adjustable Gain

Achieving proper recording levels is crucial to avoiding distortion. The MKE 400's adjustable sensitivity provides three settings to optimize the mic's audio signal volume. The -20 dB setting is ideal when capturing loud sounds that could distort your recording. The 0 dB position is recommended for normal dialogue levels or when using a high-quality external preamp. Select +20 dB when miking quiet sources or using cameras with low input sensitivity.

Low-Cut Filter

When excessive low-frequency noise from HVAC systems and traffic interferes with the clarity of your audio, activate the 200 Hz low-cut filter to attenuate bass frequencies while letting crucial midrange and high-frequencies pass through unaffected.

The Sennheiser EW 135P G4 camera-mount wireless handheld microphone system features the proven combination of reliability, flexible control, and broadcast-quality sound that has made the EW Series an industry standard for videographers, journalists, and content creators all over the world.

The EW 135P G4 gives you the tools to adapt and meet the wireless challenges that inevitably arise on set. The frequency scan function automatically searches for the cleanest frequency at your location, while the transmitter offers an interchangeable capsule design, allowing you to swap mic capsules with different polar patterns to suit your application.

The system includes a camera-mount receiver and an updated, lightweight handheld transmitter equipped with an MMD 835 cardioid capsule—ideal in situations where you don't have time to position a lavalier mic or you need to quickly pass the mic between several people. The receiver connects to a camcorder or a DSLR/mirrorless camera to capture crisp-sounding speech or dialog for projects ranging from wedding and corporate videos to red-carpet and man-on-the-street interviews in noisy environments.

The EW 135P G4 is backward-compatible with previous evolution systems, giving you the ability to mix and match G4/G3/G2/G1 receivers or bodypack, handheld, and plug-on transmitters. It is also compatible with EW 500 systems.

Built for Dependable Performance in the Field

• The EW 135P G4 features all-metal construction and a lightweight handheld transmitter, well suited for extended use on location.
• Using the included shoemount adapter, the compact receiver easily mounts on your camera without adding much weight. The included cables allow you to connect the receiver to the 3.5mm or XLR audio input of any DSLR/mirrorless, camcorder, or recording device.
• Both transmitter and receiver feature daylight-readable LED displays showing reception quality, battery status, and audio level. To get you going quickly, they synchronize via infrared interface with the simple push of a button.

Proven Broadcast-Quality Sound

• The EW 135P G4 ships with an MMD 835 dynamic mic capsule, which delivers a natural sound optimized for speech intelligibility. Its directional cardioid polar pattern helps to reject unwanted background sound, making it ideal in loud environments such as trade-show floors, busy public areas, or sporting events.
• For outdoor interviews or situations when you're moving the mic quickly between speakers, you can swap out the included 835 cardioid capsule for the MMD 42 capsule (available separately), which offers improved wind protection, less handling noise, and a more forgiving omnidirectional pickup pattern.
• To take full advantage of the microphone's dynamic range, the system employs proprietary HDX compander technology, preserving your sound without adding unwanted noise during transmission, and delivering audio with remarkable accuracy and quality.

Additional Features

• 42 MHz bandwidth with 1680 tunable UHF frequencies for clean reception

Fifine A6 Ampligame USB Condenser Gaming Microphone with RGB Light

Features

Get into the character of streaming

• No more cliche about the USB connection this time, it is a type-a jack, it is just plug-and-play on a Windows, Mac and a PlayStation console.
• If you want to, the compatibility can extend to your mobile. But the best bit is the USB port hiding behind the mic.
• It will look like a wireless model when you put it on your desk. Because the cable will go from the back directly to your computer, which is good for cable management.

Break out the party piece

• The connection is a breeze, but how can I tell if the microphone is ready to work? It might be the exact question when you get your hands on such electronics.
• Once it gets power from a computer USB port, the RGB starts to shine. The lights are not all swagger, they also serve as an indicator of working statues.
• They do not stay the same all the time either. The total four patterns with its two-tone lighting fade into another one in a smooth way and will blend in the mood of your studio perfectly.

Pull all the tricks out of the bag

Before you are carried away, the customized accessories will bat your eyelids once more. They are fine-tuned for not just good-looking but for a performance reason.

• The microphone itself seems to be integrated into the shock mount, but it is actually clipped in place in a suspended way with rubber bands. Compared with those shock mounts that clamp on the microphone body, the suspension has better absorption of vibration noises.
• Apart from a smiley logo, the detachable pop filter is pretty see-through. So it will not muddy the appearance of the microphone when you look at it from the front. But do not be fooled by such a thin layer, unlike the flapper filter that does not look good and sometimes does not work well either, it is quite good at rejecting rumbling. It also works as a dust collector, which collects the dust blown from the front and keeps the mic clean.

When you got the mic up and running, two more features are going to play crucial roles in your streaming.

• The tap-to-mute button is on the tap where is the easiest place to tap, no matter how you position the mic, it is especially convenient when you put the mic on the included stand. But it is not so easy to let you forget that you are mute, because the eye-catching RGB lights will shut at that time to work as a notice.
• In streaming, if there is any feedback about you being soft or loud from your audience or teammates, the control dial hiding underneath will help fix the volume issue on the fly. No bother with the time-consuming audio settings on your computer system and you will have a more constant sounding throughout the whole streaming.

Clarity will earn it a place in your studio

• The size of the capsule is 16mm and the lowest frequency the mic can pick up is 60Hz, those two figures both suggest that it is not the model giving you the warm sound heard from radio broadcasts.
• But in most situations, you do not need a too bassy tone to muddle your voice, because it is born for gaming! The application requires many trebles, your teammates need to hear you well even with the game sound up. The highest frequency is 18KHz and it is boosted a bit to guarantee a clearer reproduction of your voice.
• But what about background sound? You are going to pull off a combo by putting the mic 5 inches within your mouth. Your voice will appear more engaging, thus fewer background noises and a more balancing tone.
• As for the keyboard sound that attacks from behind, let the cardioid pattern cover your back! And the distancing also does its part in noises rejection, the closer the mic gets to the sound source, the further it is away from those distracting sounds.

Can a USB dynamic mic earn a place in your studio?
It is built to be used right off the bat. The USB setup will swiftly carry you away from the XLR-absence regret, for its plug-and-play convenience on Windows, Mac and even a Play Station console. And the compatibility does not end there, with a USB adapter, it can also up your game on an Android, iPhone and iPad.
What’s more, a proper dynamic microphone with the least expensive price tag is around 60 bucks, but when bringing together the necessary add-on, the total is more than $100. And if you prefer a standalone shape of mic that gives you more presence, the price may go up to double of a K658. 
You do not have to treat it like something fragile. For its proper metal construction, it can be the workhorse for your everyday tasks. With an included mini tripod, you do not have to cram the backpack with a heavy podcast stand if you take the mic out for an on-the-go recording. Though we highly recommend a scissor arm stand for use with the mic in the home studio.     

How to raise eyebrows? With lights!  
What differs you from the rest if all of you stream the same game? You have to be swagger to draw attention. At least, you really should not be understated, which may restrain the inspiration of your content creation. Then this mic with a giant volume dial will fit in the swagger presence perfectly.
If the dot thing seems underwhelming to you as a pro streamer, the RGB lights will do the trick and get its gaming act together. They do no just shine on the dial but glow on the shock mount. Yes, you hear us right, the mic comes with its own shock mount.
And what really good is that the light does not emit from the shock mount but is reflected! The RGB sources are actually hiding underneath the mic. In practical terms, it is eye-catching but does not strain your eyes nor wastes extra power to turn the lights on. If it is not appropriate for some scenario, you can shut it down by press the on/off button at the back of the mic.

Doubtlessly at first glance, the RGB grabs all your attention, from where the function of this shock mount was neglected. But it will earn its reputation back when it comes to absorbing bumping sounds. Because the rumblings get even worse on a dynamic microphone for it is sensitive to low-energy frequency. And the shock mount is here to help get rid of those noises!

It is as quiet as a common dynamic, but not that quiet to make an external preamp necessary for getting some decent volume of sound. If you have not got used to leaning close to a microphone, the FIFINE's best trick - high-end clarity will have you covered. But anyway, it is always good to keep a consistent 5 inches talking distance to whatever mic you use.  
The capsule is not see-through until you unscrew the pop filter screwed on the top. It is still well protected by a metal mesh top. And there is quite some distance from the top of the mic to the capsule, plus the attached pop filter, the plosives reduction is off the scale. As a result, it makes up a bit for the shortfall of speaking too close to a dynamic microphone.
Given all these features, it will immensely raise your game! Noise rejection is the Ace, complimented with the interface-like controls, you are about to win in every application that you use this mic.  

The noise rejection is so great that even if you move off-axis there not much background sound will be picked up. The foreseeable result is that your voice may get muffled a little bit, but the impact can be hugely minimized with this K658 for its on-body volume dial. 
A mute button literally should mute the mic in silence, but many on the market fail to do so. Not the one on this FIFINE K658! It gently cuts the mic off without any noticeable noises to your streaming.   
You get the benefits of a dynamic microphone but without the drawback of spending the extra. There is no need for a preamp or an audio interface because both have been built into this mic without losing many of their merits. You still have a doggone size volume dial, which also serves as a mute button, as well as a low-latency headphone monitoring.
The headphone jack does offer a pretty low-latency monitoring. And you will hear footsteps clearly and timely in your FPS games, missing not a single valuable audio information.   

The all-time best all-rounder of FIFINE 
The tight radio sound is what podcasters look for. In the ears of a musician, it may tend towards slightly boomy. But the FIFINE-characterized clarity bring the tone back on course, thus the overall result is still a balanced-sounding mic. For gaming, who can have a noise-free live is much easier to get into the streamers' popular list. In a nutshell, the lacking of high pass/low-pass filter will not dent its appeal, you will be happy with its performance in almost every application.
