Woaw I am very impressed. Sennheiser is the best! I wish for an ENG set with 2 lavs included and not one of the two being an XLR input. Also, the scary thing is always some kind of interference or unforseen issue and sound getting lost, so I wish perhaps if there could be a transmitter with a built-in MicroSD card slot to record a backup of the audio that can later be synchronized, just in those cases one is unlucky and for the wireless connection to somehow not work for any reason whatsoever. And perhaps Sennheiser could push camera makers to include in their firmwares a system that can automatically merge such audio to video footage post recording automatically so I guess that special transmitter might have wifi direct too. Also if I'm using 4 transmitters to 1 receiver, I wish perhaps there could be a special receiver with 4-track mixing capability right onto the receiver, some kind of small levels that could be turned for each channel somehow.. also is there an easy way to swap the battery out of any receiver or transmitter when battery lever goes low without having to then plug them to charge or having to own a second set of everything to be able to keep filming? this is getting closer to my dream of easy, seamless and affordable wireless audio!
I'm guessing you solved this but somebody in another video discovered that by using a different cable (an attenuator cable) to connect your receiver unit to your camera's mic input, then the signal level was reduced. So whilst you can't actually control the signal strength using the units themselves, that connector cable offers a solution to reduce the level if it is too hot into your camera and then you can turn up your camera's mic level. Should work fine regardless of your camera's manufacturer.
For video If I wanted to capture two people with lav mics on would I be able to run two streams of wireless audio through a field recorder that has several inputs
Did you get an answer to this? I want to know if I can reliably have two of these packs running simultaneously next to each other without there being any interference. So Two talent talking to each other, each with their own kit, and two receivers on my camera.
Up to 12 simultaneous connections are possible. It automatically checks and chooses free channels within the roughly 85 MHz of bandwidth it has at its disposal. When there’s interference, it switches to a free channel (not audible). So, using fewer parallel connections actually leaves more spare channels. Two at the same time is not an issue, at all.
4 transmitters for 1 receiver. Questions. Receiver on camera: will it generate 4 different audio files? OR just the video file with the 4 audios? Receiver on a recorder (like Zoom H4n Pro) will output 4 audio files? Or for example: to generate separate files will I have to have 2 receivers connected (one mic each) on different channels on the recorder?
One transmitter can only be used with one receiver AT THE SAME TIME. But the Rx remembers up to 4 Tx and you can skip the pairing process the next time. Also, no audio files are created by the Tx and Rx. It’s a wireless system, like a substitute for a cable. The 4 Tx/1 Rx feature just means that you can turn off Tx #1 and turn on #2 and the Rx will recognize it without a pairing process to be done. So, yes, two Rx and Tx devices into two separate audio inputs are required for two separate signals to be transmitted and eventually recorded at the same time.
Hi, I'm using the lavalier set, and about the loss of signal, I'm having quite a lot and from a close distance, it's true that I'm putting the transmitter on the hips/back of the people, but it shouldn't actually be a problem..someone having the same experience?
I have 1 mixer and 4 battery speakers and want to link everything wirelessly - what would be the best combination? Can 1 transmitter talk to 4 receivers????????
I have a wired sd systems lcm 89 mic for sax. Can I use xsw-d base set with my mic?

Hey! Seems nice! Is it possible to make two or more transmitters work at the same time? If I want to lets say set up an interview with two persons like a debate or talk with more people involved? I want to be able to mic these people up with with lavaliers and record audio directly to the memory card in the camera.
I don't think Senheiser can do that. I use a Saramonic wireless mic for that. It can have two transmitters for weddings and interviews and it goes into one receiver.
I got the lavalier set with the 3.5mm jack. The gain is controlled automatically. So basically, you set your cameras internal recording volume to the lowest setting (On Sony mirrorless that is 1). This will give you the cleanest signal with the least amount of background noise. But the gain is still automatically adjusted. I will try and get a 3.5mm -> XLR female and plug it into my XLR K2M to see if a preamp can override the automatic gain.
