The Synco WAir-G1-A2 is an ultracompact, digital wireless microphone system with two microphones and just one receiver—great for shooting two-person videos for Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. It offers a complete, versatile, and simple-to-use solution for recording dialogue, interviews, and speech directly to a mirrorless/DSLR camera or a mobile device with a 3.5mm input.
The WAir-G1-A2 consists of two tiny, lightweight clip-on transmitters each with its own built-in microphone along with a separate lavalier mic that can be used if you prefer a more discreet mic setup. The system also includes a single tiny receiver that mounts on your camera or mobile device and plugs into its 3.5mm input jack. Both a 3.5mm TRS cable for camera use and a 3.5mm TRRS cable for smartphone use are included.
The system delivers reliable transmission with clear sound at a line-of-sight distance up to 164' (98' with limited obstacles). The built-in rechargeable batteries provide up to 5 hours of operation and recharge in 1.5 hours via USB Type-C ports.

- The two-channel receiver allows you to save space on your shooting rig by using a single receiver to simultaneously receive signals from the two mic/transmitters.
- The receiver features a belt clip, which also doubles as a shoemount adapter for your camera.
- Each of the compact transmitters is equipped with both a built-in microphone and a 3.5mm input that accepts its included lavalier microphone.
- Both the built-in mic and the lav offer a 50 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response.
- The transmitter can be clipped on clothing without having to wire yourself or your talent, providing a fast, truly wireless setup. You can also hold the transmitter in your hand and use it as a handheld microphone.
- A low-cut filter on the transmitter can be engaged to reduce air-conditioning and wind noise.
- Simply press the pairing buttons and the system components pair automatically.
- Dedicated gain buttons on the receiver allow for 10 dB of gain adjustment for each microphone independently.
- The receiver and the transmitters have displays that indicate power, battery life, and pairing status.
- You have the option to switch between mono or stereo on the receiver: Recording in mono combines both microphones on both the left and right side of your audio track. Recording in stereo puts one person on the left and the other person on the right, allowing you to isolate each person's dialog and adjust each level individually later in post.
- The transmitters and the receiver are powered for up to 5 hours via a built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery.
- The battery recharges in 1.5 hours; a charging cable is included.
- If your camera doesn’t have a headphone jack, you can monitor your sound via the receiver’s 3.5mm headphone output while recording to ensure that you are capturing a clean signal.
- To avoid interference from TV and radio waves, the WAir digital system operates in the 2.4 GHz frequency band—far away from television, radio, and UHF wireless microphone transmissions.
- The system automatically changes transmission frequency to mitigate noise and dropouts at a line-of-sight distance of up to 164 feet or up to 98 feet when some obstacles are present.
- For optimal performance, environments with limited Wi-Fi/2.4 GHz traffic and minimal physical obstructions are recommended.
Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Can I plug in third party lav mics?
A: Yes, you can use third party lavalier mics that have a standard 3.5mm TRS connector and operate using plug-in power or a battery.
Q: 2. Can a use other higher quality lavalier mic's with this?
A: Although not specified, the Synco WAir-G2-A2 Ultracompact 2-Person Digital Wireless Microphone System for Mirrorless/DSLR Cameras should presumably be compatible for use with third party lavalier microphones featuring a non-locking 3.5mm connection.
Q: 3. because they indicate that the battery lasts 8 hours, when in reality it lasts only 3 hours, I just bought the equipment and that disappoints me
A: WWe are very sorry to hear that. Performance will vary depending upon environmental factors and gain setting. If you have additonal questions please e-mail us: askbh@bandh.com
Q: 4. What ac power is recommended for charge?
A: You can use any USB wall charger with the Synco WAir-G2-A2 Ultracompact 2-Person Digital Wireless Lavalier Microphone System, like you would use to charge a smartphone. For example, the ChargeWorx Dual USB Type-A Wall Charger (B&H # CHACX2603BK), the GyroVu 5V 3.1A USB Type-A AC Adapter (B&H # GYGVUSBPS3), or the Belkin Boost Charge 24W Dual USB Type-A Wall Charger (B&H # BEWCB2DQWH) will all work for charging the Synco WAir-G2-A2 system.
Q: 5. Would you recommend this cable to use when both mics are being used? If so, would the audio be mixed together or will they be on separate channels? B&H #HOHMX003Y
A: You have the option to switch between mono or stereo on the receiver: Recording in mono combines both microphones on both the left and right side of your audio track. Recording in stereo puts one person on the left and the other person on the right, allowing you to isolate each person's dialog and adjust each level individually later in post.
Q: 6. Does this support Stereo recording?
A: No, the WAir-G2-A1 has a single-channel receiver and one transmitter so it records one signal as dual mono which means you hear the same audio on both the left and right channels. The WAir-G2-A2 (B&H # SYWAIRG2A2) has a two-channel receiver and two transmitters. The two-channel system allows you to switch between mono or stereo on the receiver. Recording in mono combines both microphones so you hear them both the left and right sides of your audio track. Recording in stereo puts one person on the left and the other person on the right, allowing you to isolate each person's dialog and adjust each level individually later in post.
Q: 7. How long is the lavalier mic cable?
A: Synco does not provide the specific length of the cable for the lavalier micincluded, but it is approximately 5 feet long.
Q: 8. Assuming this would work with an iPhone using a lightning to 3.5mm converter? thanks!
A: Yes, you can use this wireless system with any iPhone, using the Apple adapter cable: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1280795-REG/apple_mmx62am_a_lightning_to_3_5mm_headphone.html
Q: 9. Can I feed this into an XLR in on a camera with an adapter?
A: Yes, you can use the 3.5mm TRS to TRS receiver output cable along with an XLR adapter such as the Kopul A-XMMF 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter (B&H# KOAXMMF) or Rode VXLR 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter (B&H# ROVXLR).
Q: 10. Hi! assuming this would work with an iPhone using a lightning to 3.5mm adapter? thanks!
A: Yes, all you will need is the Apple Lightning to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter (B&H # APLAADAP). Simply attach it to the TRRS end of the 3.5mm TRS to TRRS Output Cable for Smartphones that comes with the Synco wireless system and then connect it to your iPhone and you'll be ready to go.
