Audix AP41L10A - Professional Wireless Diversity System with Lavalier Microphone
The Audix AP41L10A represents the perfect convergence of professional audio fidelity, ease of setup, and durability ready for demanding tours. Part of Audix's acclaimed Performance Series , this all-in-one wireless system is designed for presenters, actors, lecturers, and broadcast professionals who require a discreet yet powerful audio solution capable of delivering clear, natural voice without the constraints of cables.
At the heart of this system is the R41 Diversity receiver, a robust metal unit that guarantees stable, interference-free signal reception thanks to its antenna diversity technology. The system stands out for its agility across the radio frequency spectrum, offering a tuning bandwidth of 32 MHz and access to 106 pre-coordinated frequencies. This allows for quick and reliable channel acquisition, even in signal-saturated urban environments.
Audio capture is handled by the ADX10 lavalier microphone, a miniature cardioid condenser microphone renowned for its feedback resistance and low profile. This microphone connects to the B60 bodypack transmitter, a rugged metal unit designed to withstand heavy daily use while maintaining a stable wireless connection with the receiver. The combination of these three elements (R41, B60, and ADX10) provides a seamless user experience, from one-touch infrared pairing to the final stage performance.
Main Features
-
Intelligent Synchronization: The system features one-touch "Scan & Sync" technology. The receiver automatically scans the environment to locate a free frequency and, using an infrared beam, synchronizes the transmitter in seconds.
-
R41 High Performance Receiver: With a 9.5" (half rack) metal chassis, it includes intuitive menus and a high-contrast LCD screen that displays real-time RF (radio frequency) and AF (audio frequency) levels.
-
Long-Life B60 Transmitter: Unlike the common plastic beltpacks in this range, the B60 is constructed of metal and offers up to 14 hours of battery life with AA batteries, ideal for long days of conferences or rehearsals.
-
ADX10 Lavalier Microphone: Its cardioid polar pattern helps isolate the speaker's voice from ambient noise and dramatically reduces feedback or coupling problems on stage.
-
Versatile Gain Management: The transmitter allows gain adjustments (-6, -12, -24 dB) to suit both soft voices and speakers with great vocal projection.
Benefits of the Audix AP41L10A System
This system is designed to eliminate the technical complexity of wireless audio. The main benefit for the user is absolute reliability ; thanks to the Diversity circuit design, the receiver automatically switches between antennas to always maintain the strongest signal, preventing dropouts during the presentation. Furthermore, the ADX10 microphone's sonic clarity ensures that the message reaches the audience with superior intelligibility, accurately capturing the nuances of the human voice from a comfortable distance of 10 to 20 centimeters.
Use Cases
-
Corporate Presentations and Conferences: Ideal for executives who need hands-free operation to gesture or handle slides without losing voice quality.
-
Theater and Performing Arts: Its discreet microphone, easy to hide in the dressing room, makes it perfect for actors.
-
Educational Centers and Auditoriums: The durability of the metallic transmitter makes it resistant to shared and frequent use in universities or colleges.
-
Places of Worship: Provides a clear and aesthetically respectful solution for religious leaders and speakers.
-
Broadcast and Interviews: Excellent for recording situations where mobility and a minimal visual profile are required.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What type of batteries does the transmitter use and how long do they last?
The B60 bodypack transmitter uses two standard AA batteries. Thanks to its efficient power management, it can operate for up to 14 continuous hours, more than enough for any standard event.
-
What is the operational scope of the system?
Under optimal line-of-sight conditions, the system has an approximate range of 91 meters (300 feet), allowing great freedom of movement in large scenarios.
-
Is it possible to use this system in conjunction with other wireless microphones?
Yes, the R41 receiver offers 106 pre-coordinated frequencies. You can configure up to 16 simultaneous systems (depending on local spectrum availability) without interference between them.
-
Does the ADX10 microphone require an external power supply?
When connected to the B60 beltpack, the microphone receives the necessary power (bias voltage) directly from the transmitter, so it does not require additional batteries or external phantom power in this configuration.
Project description
Professional UHF Diversity Wireless Microphone System consisting of a half-rack receiver (R41), a bodypack transmitter (B60), and a cardioid lavalier microphone (ADX10). The receiver operates with a 32 MHz tuning bandwidth and offers 106 pre-coordinated frequencies with auto-scan and infrared synchronization. The bodypack transmitter features a metal chassis, a 3-pin mini-XLR connector, and up to 14 hours of battery life with two AA batteries. The condenser microphone has a cardioid polar pattern, a frequency response of 50 Hz to 18 kHz, and can handle sound pressure levels exceeding 120 dB. The system guarantees an operating range of up to 91 meters (300 feet) line of sight.
