Hey all,
I know I normally stick to my lampie area, but I was looking for suggestions and advice for a wireless system I am putting together. So, I'm looking at:
8 SLX14W microphones (the SLX system, includes the SLX4 receivers)
2 directional antennas (PA805) would run through around 10 feet of BNC to a a UA221 splitter/combiner which would split the antennas between two UA844 antenna distribution systems. Each UA844 would feed 4 of the SLX receivers. The entire system would be rack mounted in a 6U case.
I want to be able to mount the antennas on the front of the booth, and be able to have the actual receivers off to the side of the booth where they would not have a good line-of-sight to the stage, hence me wanting to get the external antennas.
The SLX system seems to be a good mid-level system. It is about 80' from the back of the stage to the back of the house in the balcony where the sound/lighting booth is, and it seems like the SLX system will be able to do this no problem. In the pas the space has rented lower quality wireless mics and had issues with interference and mics dropping out, so I am trying very hard to make the system as robust as possible for the money.
This install/improvement is also involving flying 3 speakers in a center cluster. I'll post more about that as things develop.
So, I'd love any suggestions or corrections to my system.
Thanks guys and gals!
Zac
