News: Sabine SWM7000 on Tour More Artists Choose Sabine 2.4 GHz Wireless

Trapt (Warner Bros.)       “The transmitter is the weak link for most wireless microphone systems,” states Jeff Good, production manager and FOH engineer for Warner Bros. recording artists Trapt. “But the new SWM7000 2.4 GHz transmitter is amazing. The high-end clarity — where most units tend to fluctuate — is crystal clear.”   “Furthermore, it’s very easy to use in RF-unfriendly environments,” asserts Good. “For example, we were at the Minnesota State Fair and having a terrible time with interference on our other wireless units, but the Sabine 2.4 GHz was fine the moment we turned it on — no interference whatsoever!”   Read More ...   Warner Bros.

Power Users SWM7000 2.4 GHz Wireless & Graphi-Q Sweep the Ice at Harvard

Although Harvard's Alexander H. Bright Hockey Center has undergone many improvements during its 47 years as home ice for the Crimson, the recent improvements performed by Audio Associates (Orleans, MA) may prove the best sounding.   Audio Associates designed and installed a distributive sound system incorporating three channels of Sabine Graphi-Q and the new SWM7000 2.4 GHz wireless microphone.    "We tried the SWM7000 just after it started shipping and absolutely loved all the features — including the ability to lock out access to front-panel control of those features," states Welch.   Harvard University's Alexander H. Bright Hockey Center

"Sabine's Mic SuperModeling™ is fantastic," he continues. "It's very easy to dial in the best sounding [virtual] capsule for a vocalist's specific needs."   "The Graphi-Q is extremely accurate — and having Sabine's FBX Feedback Exterminator, compression and delay built into one rack space is a tremendous advantage," proclaims Welch.

Wireless Tips: RF Scanner Tells All Sabine 2.4 GHz Wireless Receiver has a Built-in RF Scanner Use the SWM7000 receiver's built-in scanner to locate potential interference. Remember, potential interference in the 2.4 GHz band is low power, and much more manageable than the high-powered interference present in the UHF band. Here are some of the time & gig-saving functions you can perform on this FREE scanner (download the SWM7000 Operating Guide for a complete understanding of scanner functions):

Run a one-time or continuous scan See all SWM7000 transmitters (green lines) — with channel number & signal strength indicated See potential interference by channel number & signal strength View & print out an RF signal history for each channel Block channel(s) so that they cannot be selected from the front panel of the receiver Create a channel-block threshold for interference. This robust feature allows you to decide which channels will be blocked, based on the relative strength of the potential interference.
