Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can I use the Sony UWP-D27 to wirelessly feed a Sony A7s from my mixer’s two channel output?

A: Yes, the UWP-D27 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless System can be used to send a line signal from the left and right outputs of your mixer to your Sony a7s Mirrorless Camera. The 2 x UTX-B40 Wireless Bodypack Transmitters can send the independent left and right outputs of your mixer to the URX-P41D Dual-Channel Camera-Mount Wireless Receiver. The left and right outputs of the URX-P41D Receiver can then send a stereo line signal to your Sony a7s Mirrorless Camera by utilizing the XLR-K3M Dual-Channel Digital XLR Audio Adapter Kit (sold separately).

Q: 2. Is the dual audio output compatible with mirrorless cameras like the Nikon Z9? Or how would I input both mics to the camera? I'm trying to go an interview style film with 2 talents. Thank you.

A: Yes, the Sony UWP-D27 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System is compatible for use with the Nikon Z9 Mirrorless Camera. You would connect the output from the receiver to the camera's 3.5mm mic input using the included 3.5mm to locking 3.5mm cable and the audio from both microphones will be recorded by the camera along with the video.

Q: 3. 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: 4. Is it at all possible to use this system with on a Red Komodo?

A: Yes, the Sony UWP-D27 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System can be used with the RED KOMODO Digital Cinema Camera.

Q: 6. How do the sony mics sound compared to the sennheiser (g3,g4)?

A: The Sony UWP-D27 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System is an excellent wireless microphone system and very comparable to the Sennheiser EW 112P G4 Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System. Both systems are very popular, however, Sennheiser does not offer a dual-channel camera-mount receiver, so for a camera-mount system with two transmitters, the Sony UWP-D27 is a great option.

Q: 7. Does the receiver have enough audio output to power a line level signal?

A: Yes, the Sony URX-P41D Dual-Channel Camera-Mount Wireless Receiver in the Sony UWP-D27 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System has an output level adjustment in its Menu options. You can set the level in 3 dB increments from –12 dB to +12 dB (full line level).

Q: 9. I own this and want to add a handheld mic to that works with the receiver. Which handheld wireless works best with it?

A: You can use the Sony UTX-M40 Wireless Handheld Cardioid Microphone Transmitter that works in the same frequency band as the URX-P41D receiver (BH #SOUTXM4014). This is made by Sony, for direct compatibility with the URX-P41D receiver. Please keep in mind that you can only use up to 2 wireless transmitters with the URX-P41D receiver at a time.

Q: 10. What would be your frequency recommendation for someone who is traveling a lot in the U.S. (mostly in the midwest but occasionally the coasts)?

A: Any of these frequency bands will work just fine anywhere in North America under current FCC regulations. Part of the reason there are different bands is so that you can use many systems at the same time and within the same space so that they do not interfere with each other. Another reason is if you are going to be using the system in a place where there are already many other wireless systems, you can choose the one that resides outside of the frequency band that those systems run in, to avoid interference with those systems. If you are not going to be in a space where there is already a lot of wireless traffic, then any of these will work just fine, up to 300 feet line of sight between the transmitters and the receiver.
