Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this work with the EW100-S3 model?

A: The SKP-100 G4 transmitter will work with EW100 G3 receivers as long as the frequency bands match.

Q: 2. Is it compatible with the Audio-Technica AT8035 Long Shotgun ?

A: This SKP 100 G4 Plug-On Transmitter does not provide phantom power, so a shotgun mic such as the Audio-Technica AT8035 would only be compatible if used with battery power.

Q: 3. Greetings, I would like to know if the SKP 100 G4 is compatible with an older G3 transmitter in G band. I wish to send the audio output from a Sound Devices MM-1 preamp connected to a Sennheiser ME-66 mic (line output level). Will this work fine without an attenuator? Thank you.

A: Yes the Sennheiser SKP 100 G4 in G-band will work with a Sennheiser ME66 and G3 receiver in G-band.

Q: 4. Can the 48v Phantom Power be switched off if not needed?

A: Yes, the 48v phantom power can be turned off for dynamic microphones.

Q: 5. Will this work with tv news style interviewer microphone and Sennheiser G3 wireless system?

A: If your mic is a Dynamic microphone with an XLR connection, it will work. While this G4 Plug-on transmitter is backwards compatible with the G3 Wireless systems, make sure you order it with the same Frequency range as your existing G3 wireless system as otherwise it will not work.

Q: 6. Can I use this device with xsw2?

A: This is a UHF transmitter, but it is not meant to be used with the XSW series of wireless microphones.

Q: 7. Can I use a Sennheiser ME II with this if I use an adapter and if so, which adapter?

A: No, the ME 2-II lavalier microphone will not work with the SKP 100 G4 transmitter. The mic requires plug-in power and the SKP 100 plug-on transmitter does not supply any power at all. The Sennheiser SK 100 G4 Wireless Bodypack Transmitter A: 516 to 558 MHz (B&H # SESK100G4A) is the compatible transmitter to use with the ME 2-II. It does have the correct connector for attaching the ME 2-II and also supplies plug-in power for the mic. Just be certain to match the frequency band with your receiver.

Q: 8. I have the Sennheiser EW 112P G3-B Omni-directional EW system. Will this work with the G3 receiver?

A: Hi Brian - while Evolution Wireless G4 is backward compatible with EW G3, the products need to operate within the same frequency range. Your current product is the EW 112P G3 in the B-Range, which is 626-668MHz and the AW+ range of this SKP 500 is 470 - 558MHz, so they wouldn't be compatible. The larger issue is that the FCC has effectively banned wireless devices in the 600MHz range, effective July 13, 2020 - to help offset the costs of transitioning to new, legal devices, Sennheiser is offering a rebate on the trade-in of 600MHz products and the EW 112P G4 sets are also on sale through the end of April 2020 at B&H.

Q: 9. Can I use with MKH 70?

A: Hello Mikhail - the SKP 500 is capable of providing the 48V Phantom Power required by the MKH 70; please note that the SKP 500 is a transmitter only and you'll need to pair it with a receiver (i.e. EK 500 G4) or purchase a system (i.e. EW 500 BOOM G4) to ensure you have all the appropriate products for a successful shoot.

Q: 10. Will this work with the Senheiser AVX Wireless system? I want to plug this into an MKH416 and record boom audio wirelessly into camera.

A: No, the Sennheiser SKP 500 G4 Pro Wireless Plug-On Transmitter is not compatible for use with the AVX system. The G4 series is a UHF system (this particular transmitter operates on the 470 to 558 MHz band) while the AVX series is a digital system that operates at 1.9 GHz. Sennheiser does not offer a plug-on transmitter for AVX. The G4 series system is a better option if you need to use a plug-on transmitter that can supply phantom power for your MKH416. The SKP 500 transmitter is available separately or as a complete system with the EK 500 transmitter -- Sennheiser EW 500 BOOM G4 Camera-Mount Wireless Plug-On Microphone System with No Mic - AW+: 470 to 558 MHz (B&H # SEEW500BG4AW).
