Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Do any non-Sony mic brands work with this?

A: Yes. Brands like Sanken, Countryman, Tram, Voice Technologies and Senal make compatible mics for the Sony UWP-D27 system.

Q: 2. If I already own a UC14 receiver with two transmitters, should I get another set for UC14 or should I get a different frequency band?

A: I would base the decision of whether to get another Sony UWP-D27 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System on the same frequency range on how well your current system works. If you find frequencies are always readily available, and the range works well in your area, it may be sensible to get another system on the same range. The UWP-D27 has 2,772 potential frequencies, so adding two for a total of four would not necessarily be detrimental. On the other hand, another frequency range adds versatility if the existing system sometimes struggles to find open channels.

Q: 3. Hi, I'd like to know whether you sell this kit in frequency range suitable for France/Europe ? Thanks, Marc

A: The Sony UWP-D Series Wireless Microphone Systems and other wireless microphone systems that we sell are intended for use in North America, but they may also work in other countries. You will need to check with the local authorities or shops in France to find out which frequencies are available for use by wireless microphones.

Q: 6. Hi, I am filming on the FX6. with the SMAD-PD can you control each channel (Transmiter) seperatly?

A: The Sony UWP-D27 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System can be used with the SMAD-P5 adapter to deliver two separate channels of audio to compatible Sony cameras via a digital MI shoe connection.

Q: 7. According to other Q&A's, this mic is not compatible with other setups. Dare I ask why? Seems a standard TRS setup should work?

A: Sony uses a different wiring scheme and locking connector than other manufacturers of 3.5mm microphones. Most 3.5mm microphones use what we would call the "Sennheiser" style of wiring, which is more or less the universal standard. Sony is the exception, and only mics specifically wired for Sony systems will work with them - ergo, Sony-wired mics will only work with Sony systems.

Q: 8. I have a UTX-B2 transmitter and need to purchase another mic. Will this one work or if not can you tell me which will? I don't want to spend $250.00

Q: 10. Will this mic work with other transmitter packs other than sony? Looking for a cardioid lapel mic for Saramonic packs.

A: The Sony ECM-X7BMP will only work with the Sony UWP wireless systems. We currently do not carry any cardioid lavaliers for saramonic wireless packs. As the brand gains popularity, it is possible other manufacturers may decide to make a solution for saramonic transmitters.
