The Lectrosonics SMQV Wireless Microphone Transmitter 941-959MHzincorporates Lectrosonics patented Digital Hybrid Wireless technology into a package no bigger than a pager. The SMQV transmitter is miniature in size yet rugged enough to withstand rigorous daily use in the field or in studios.

To meet the demand for both extended operating range and extended battery life, this version of the SMQV transmitter offers a selectable output power of 50 or 100 mW. The 50mW option is provided for some theatrical applications, where the system design specifies lower transmitter power. Channel spacing is also selectable, with 100 and 25 kHz options available. With the spacing set to 100 kHz, the SMQV transmitter offers 180 user-selectable UHF frequencies in this block; if that's not enough, setting the spacing to 25 kHz gives you up to 684 frequencies to work with. 

Lectrosonics patented Digital Hybrid technology revolutionizes wireless microphone transmission. Digital audio signal is converted and encoded for analog transmission, then decoded and converted back to digital audio at the receiver. The result is an exceptionally low noise floor as the compandor circuit is eliminated and clear audio reception is retained at greater distances.

The Switchcraft TA5M audio input has a user-calibrated 44 dB gain range, and accepts electret lavalier mics, dynamic mics, or line-level signals. A DSP-controlled analog audio limiter is employed before the A-D converter. The limiter has a range of more than 30 dB and a dual-release envelope, making the limiter transparent while maintaining low distortion.

The non-corrosive, machined aluminum casing is splash proof and features an LCD display with membrane switch control panel. The transmitter is powered by two AA lithium, NiMH, or alkaline batteries for up to 14.5 hours (lithium). The SMQV transmitter is completely compatible with all Lectrosonics Digital Hybrid wireless receivers as well as older Lectrosonics analog receivers.

Q: 1. I want to use a couple of Lectrosonics M-150 lavs as hard-wired backups to my normal gear. The stated compatible models are: Lectrosonics HM, UH400 and UH400a. M-150 uses a 5 pin female TA5 so will it also work with this adapter?

A: The MCA5X will work with all Lectrosonics mics wired with a 5 pin female (TA5) connector, however it is designed for use with their Plug On transmitters only. It will NOT work when connected to a microphone input on a mixer or a recorder.

Q: 2. can we use this as the second transmitter for the Osmo Pocket 3 (in addition to the transmitter that came with the Combo pack)?

A: No, the DJI Wireless Microphone Transmitter for DJI Pocket 2 (2.4 GHz) is not compatible with the DJI Osmo Pocket 3. For the DJI Osmo Pocket 3, you will need the DJI Mic 2 Transmitter.

Q: 3. Does this work with the original DJI Osmo Pocket?

A: This is defined as having compatibility only with the Pocket 2.

Q: 4. what is the matching reciever?

A: One.

Q: 7. Can we use 4 of these in the same building with 4 separate DJI Pocket 2s or will the signals clash?

A: Due to all of the microphones operating on the same frequency(2.4 GHz), you will have interference when using four DJI Wireless Microphone Transmitter for DJI Pocket 2 in the same location.

Q: 8. How long can this mic stay in standby mode if using a lithium battery?

A: I'm not sure about standby mode but I've gotten 3.5-4 hours out of use out of the thing. I always use lithium batteries. Energizer makes two different ones though: Advanced which they say lasts up to 6 times longer and Ultimate which they say lasts up to 9 times longer. Great mic!

Q: 9. Is it compatible with DJI Osmo Action Camera?

A: The DJI Wireless Microphone Transmitter for DJI Pocket 2 (2.4 GHz) is not compatible with the DJI OSMO Action Camera.

Q: 10. without the do-it-all handle, any other way to connect it to osmo pocket2?

A: For an alternate connection, you will need to purchase the DJI USB-C to 3.5mm Mic Adapter for Pocket 2 and Osmo Pocket (BH #DJOP35A • MFR #CP.OS.00000010.02) and can connect to the Pocket 2 via 3.5mm connection.
