The Audio-Technica ATW-3212 3000 Series Fourth Generation is a frequency-agile, true diversity UHF wireless microphone system designed to give users the power and flexibility to operate within the congested UHF spectrum. The system includes an ATW-R3210 receiver, an ATW-T3202 handheld transmitter, and your choice of ATW-C510 (dynamic) or ATW-C710 (condenser) mic capsule, and is designed to provide intelligible, natural audio while minimizing potential interference, for stage, television, lecture, event presentation, or house of worship applications.
Available in two frequency ranges 470 - 530 or 530 - 590 MHz, offering a 60 MHz tuning range, which is more than twice that offered by the previous versions. Frequencies can be easily scanned and selected on the receiver, and then synced with the transmitter via IR sync functionality. In case of interference, the Multifunction button on the transmitter lets you quickly switch to a backup frequency so you can keep working with minimal interruption.
The ATW-R3210 receiver is equipped with two flexible antennas, a balanced XLR output, and an unbalanced 1/4" output. The ATW-T3202 handheld transmitter is powered via two AA batteries and is designed for low handling noise. It also features an industry-standard thread mount for use with six interchangeable A-T microphone capsules, as well as other compatible capsules. The ATW-C510 and ATW-C710 capsules have a cardioid polar pattern, which effectively rejects unwanted background sound and helps reduce feedback on stage.
