Shure SLXD35 Digital Camera-Mount Wireless Plug-On Transmitter System (H55: 514 to 558 MHz)

Shure SLX-D / SLXD3 Overview

The Shure SLXD35 offers videographers, journalists, documentary makers, and content producers a reliable wireless plug-on transmitter system that delivers crystal-clear digital sound quality while also being quick and easy to set up, even if you're using multiple mics on set. Built around a rugged, single-channel receiver that can be camera-mounted or used in an audio bag, the system offers a comprehensive feature set that ensures professional-sounding, broadcast-ready results for demanding news gatherers and creators. This configuration includes a handheld plug-on transmitter with a locking connector that will accommodate any XLR microphone of your choice (available separately).

Transparent Digital Sound, Dependable Performance, and Multi-Mic Mode

• The SLX-D delivers 24-bit digital audio with a fast transient response, a 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response, and a 118 dB dynamic range, resulting in clear, accurate sound.
• Operating far away from potential Wi-Fi interference in the 2.4 GHz band, this configuration of the system transmits in the H55: 514 to 558 MHz UHF band, with a 44 MHz tuning range and 1760 frequencies it can autoscan to ensure a clean wireless signal.
• Digital Predictive Switching Diversity uses a microprocessor to switch between the two antennas before dropouts occur.
• A low latency of 3.2 ms helps ensure your sound and picture are easy to properly sync.
• The SLX-D's spectrum-efficient digital transmission technology allows for up to 32 mics to be used at once.
• Great for shoots with several cameras and microphones, Multi-Mic Mode lets you scan and create a list of clean frequencies, which you can send to multiple receivers via IR.
• Each receiver will sync to the appropriate transmitter at the touch of a button settings on the transmitters like the input gain and high-pass filter are also recalled.
• Multi-Mic Mode makes channel allocation easier and more efficient since the receivers aren't all auto scanning and competing for open frequencies.

Plug-On Transmitter

• This configuration includes the SLXD3 plug-on transmitter with a secure, twist-locking XLR connector to accommodate a huge variety of microphone options, including handhelds and shotguns (available separately).
• The transmitter offers 12 and 48V phantom power options for condenser microphones.
• The SLXD3 features a -12 dB pad for use on loud sources and a +12 dB boost option for use on low-level sources.
• Use the mic offset gain function to fine-tune the input gain and ensure multiple mics are at similar volume levels.
• Engage the 150 Hz high-pass filter to reduce distracting, unwanted low-end for clearer speech.
• The rugged, all-metal transmitter features an OLED screen that shows essential information and includes a leather case with a belt clip.
• The system provides a transmission range up to 330'. A selectable 1/10/30mW RF output allows you to increase the transmission power to maximize the distance or to overcome interference, if necessary.
• Two AA batteries or an SB903 rechargeable battery (available separately) will power the unit for up to 8 hours.

Rugged Receiver Ready for Camera or Audio Bag

• Powerful and portable, the SLXD5 is a single-channel digital wireless receiver for on-camera cold shoe mounting and audio bag use featuring user-configurable front-panel controls and a bright OLED screen for key system function readouts and remaining battery life.
• Housed in a tough metal chassis with adjustable front-mounted antennas, the SLXD5 is a great fit for on-the-go shooting rigs.
• It offers adjustable gain control and dual 3.5mm outputs including a headphone monitor out and switchable line/mic output. Additional features include automatic frequency scanning and IR sync to easily link the transmitter and receiver to the same frequency.
• Two AA batteries or an SB903 rechargeable battery (available separately) will power the unit for up to 5.5 hours.

Optional Rechargeable Battery Management

• Adding the SB903 lithium-ion rechargeable battery, along with an SBC10-903 single charger, SBC203 dual-docking charger, or SBC80-903 8-bay charger offers a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to throwing away AA batteries (batteries and chargers available separately).
• Using the SB903 battery and SBC203 charger simplifies the task of keeping multiple transmitters charged and ready-you can even recharge the battery while still in the transmitter or receiver.
• When powered by an SB903, the transmitter and receiver both display the remaining battery life in hours and minutes.
• For bag use, the SBC-DC-903 battery eliminator (available separately) allows you to power the receiver from your mixer's battery.
• USB-C ports on the transmitter and receiver allow for battery recharging and direct powering.

A Variety of Mics and Transmitters Available

• The WL185 cardioid lavalier mic provides a directional pickup pattern for less background sound.
• The WL184 supercardioid lavalier mic offers a very narrow, feedback-resistant pickup pattern for louder events.
• The discrete UL4 UniPlex subminiature cardioid lav provides directional pickup, exceptional clarity, and a discreet, low-profile appearance.
• If you need a waterproof option, the DL4 DuraPlex miniature lavalier features an IP57 rating for water and dust resistance. Its forgiving omnidirectional microphone capsule delivers a clear, transparent, full-range sound.
• The SLXD2 handheld transmitter is available with several mic capsules choices for presenters who prefer the flexibility of a handheld microphone.
