The Shure QLXD14/93 Digital Wireless Lavalier Microphonerackmount digital wireless lavalier microphone system provides instructors, presenters, and broadcasters with professional-quality audio, reliable RF performance, and secure AES 256-bit encryption. Rugged and easy-to-use, it is ideal for use in TV broadcast or sound-reinforcement applications in medium-sized venues and houses of worship, as well as A/V installations in conference, educational, and corporate facilities.

The QLXD14/93 operates in the UHF band to transmit pristine 24-bit/48 kHz digital audio with clarity, accurate low end, and crisp transient response. It utilizes Digital Predictive Switching Diversity to protect the transmission from interference and deliver solid RF signal stability without audio artifacts. You can run up to 60 mic channels at the same location.

The system comes with a WL93 omnidirectional lavalier microphone optimized for speech intelligibility in applications where a visually unobtrusive microphone is desirable. The bodypack transmitter provides up to 9 hours of operation on two AA batteries, with selectable 1/10mW RF power and a transmission range up to 330'.

The receiver features audio and RF meters, 60 dB of gain control, and both mic/line XLR and 1/4" instrument outputs. A large LCD screen and intuitive controls let you quickly make adjustments, even in low-light situations. Additional features include automatic frequency scanning, IR sync, and internal limiting to prevent clipping.

The Ethernet port allows multiple receivers to be easily networked together for simplified frequency coordination and deployment via Shure's Wireless Workbench (WWB) software.

• The WL93 condenser lavalier mic features an omnidirectional polar pattern which picks up sound evenly from all directions, allowing for flexible mic-positioning.
• The lavalier mic plugs into the locking TA4M connection on the compact QLXD1 bodypack transmitter. The adjustable input sensitivity on the transmitter accommodates a wide variety of speaking styles and mic levels and even instrument-level audio.
• The rugged, all-metal transmitter features a backlit LCD that displays essential information and provides fast menu access. It can be locked out to prevent accidental changes during a performance. The transmitter syncs to the receiver via infrared with a quick press on the Sync button.

• The system operates in the H50: 534 to 598 MHz UHF band with a 64 MHz tuning range and 2560 selectable frequencies.
• Digital Predictive Switching Diversity uses a microprocessor to switch antennas before dropouts occur.
• Two detachable 1/2 wave dipole antennas are included.
• 256-bit AES encryption offers unbreachable privacy by using a unique, randomized encryption key generated every time encryption is enabled.
• Low latency makes the system ideal for meetings that require live sound reinforcement.

• The receiver’s scanning function automatically finds, prioritizes, and deploys the cleanest frequencies to transmitters via IR sync.
• The receiver offers up to 60 dB of adjustable gain with an internal limiter that automatically engages to prevent digital clipping of your audio.
• Intuitive front-panel controls with audio and RF LED meters as well as a peak indicator, allow for quick visual checks.
• Ethernet networking enables real-time, precision monitoring, and control of your system as well as automatic frequency coordination across multiple receivers, using Wireless Workbench software (WWB) for Mac/Windows.
• The system is compatible with external controllers such as AMX and Creston.
• Remote Control: Make adjustments from anywhere in the venue from your iPad/iPhone via the ShurePlus Channels Mobile App for iOS devices.

• Smart Power Management on Transmitter: The SB900A lithium-ion intelligent rechargeable battery with SBC charger (both available separately) provide extended transmitter battery life over alkaline batteries.
• The SB900A’s remaining battery life can be metered in hours and minutes from the receiver’s front panel.

• Adding UA874 active antennas or PA805 passive antennas increases the range of your system and offers increased protection against interference.
• The UA844+SWB antenna distribution system (available separately) lets you stretch the power of your antenna pairs, giving you more on-air channels in less setup time.

Shure offers numerous lavalier, headset, and handheld microphone options to adapt your QLX-D system as your needs evolve.

• The WL185 (cardioid) and WL184 (supercardioid) lavalier mics offer narrower, feedback-resistant pickup patterns for louder events.
• The discrete MX153 sub-miniature earset mic provides exceptional clarity in spoken word applications.
• The SM35 is a comfortable, durable headset microphone for active performance.
• The QLXD2 handheld transmitter is available with several mic capsules choices for presenters who prefer the flexibility of a handheld microphone.

Q: 3. Is the XLR connector female or male? I am connecting to a Roland PA mic input XLR.

A: The SM11-CN features a male XLR jack. This will allow for connection to most PA systems.

Q: 4. I need a microphone mixer with two xlr inputs. Any suggestions?

A: BH #ALM4USBFXPTX

Q: 5. This will work with Wirless go system?

A: This microphone is incompatible with the RODE Go

Q: 6. Does the Lavalier on this Shure QLXD14/84 (X52: 902 to 928 MHz) come with a windscreen?

A: Yes the Shure WL184 in the Shure QLXD14/84 system comes with a snap-fit windscreen, as well as a foam windscreen.

Q: 7. Is there a drop in charger for the belt pack transmitters

A: Yes. The transmitter includes two standard alkaline AA batteries, but can also be powered using the optional Shure SB903 Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery for SLX-D Transmitters (B&H # SHSB903). To charge the SB903 battery while inside the transmitter, you can use the Shure SBC203 Dual-Docking Recharging Station for SB903 Batteries & SLX-D Transmitters (B&H # SHSBC203US) which accommodates two SLX-D transmitters or an individual SB903 battery can be charged with the Shure SBC10-903 Single-Battery Charger for SB903 Battery (B&H # SHSBC10903US). Standard rechargeable AA batteries can be used with the SLX-D transmitter, but, can not be charged with either the SBC203 or SBC10-903 chargers or while they are inside the transmitter.

Q: 8. Would this work with a DSLR?

A: You would not be able to directly plug in this mic to a DSLR because the connector is TA4F, which is intended for connecting to a Shure wireless bodypack. For utilizing a lavalier mic such as this in a video application, we would recommend using this mic in conjunction with a portable wireless solution such as the Shure FP15 wireless system. The lavalier would be plugged into the transmitter bodypack and worn by the talent on camera, while the receiver bodypack would be connected to your DSLR or a field mixer. This would also eliminate the issue of the on-camera talent having to be tethered to the camera by the lavalier's cable and would allow for free range of movement as well as a more appropriate shooting distance.

Q: 9. I want to plug this directly into a PA that has no phantom power. Can I do this, or will I need a separate power source between the mic and the PA? And if so, what will work? Thank you

A: You will still need a power source. Something ike this: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/155422-REG/Rolls_PB23_PB23_Single_Channel.html?sts=pi&pim=Y

Q: 10. How do I choose which frequency spectrum would be best for my application?

A: It depends.. if you are in a rural area it does not make much of a difference, however, if you are in an urban or suburban area you may want to consult the Shure Frequency Finder: https://www.shure.com/en-US/support/tools/frequency-finder
