Thank you for choosing an Audio-Technica professional wireless system. You have joined thousands of other satisfied customers who have chosen our products because of their quality, performance and reliability. This Audio-Technica wireless microphone system is the successful result of years of design and manufacturing experience.
Recent advances in the quality and sophistication of profession- al live-sound systems have been nothing short of revolutionary. Tours, clubs, broadcast events, corporate facilities and worship venues sound better than ever, utilizing better system design and better components in the audio chain.
That’s why Audio-Technica has been partnering with industry professionals on the front line of this revolution – the top touring companies, award show designers, FOH and monitor engineers, audio consultants and artists – to learn what it takes to make the best-sounding, most reliable and consistent microphones for the live-sound industry.
We listened carefully. Then, we applied this knowledge to the creation of the Artist Elite® line of high-performance microphones and wireless systems. Our ultimate design goal was this: Each model must extend the performance of a sound system, not limit it.
Artist Elite Receivers
Artist Elite 4000 Series and 5000 Series wireless systems by Audio-Technica share a range of transmitters in common, both body-pack and handheld types. The difference between the two series is simply in the choice of receiver:
4000 Series AEW-R4100 half-rack single receiver with multi-unit, multi-channel control linking.
5000 Series AEW-R5200 full-rack independent dual receiver with multi-unit, multi-channel control linking, plus Ethernet computer- control connection, and software for graphical user interface.
IntelliScan™ Channel Assignment System
The IntelliScan™ automatic channel assignment system, provided on both the 4000 and 5000 Series receivers, greatly simplifies the selection of usable frequencies in a multi-channel wireless system. The receivers are first linked together with included communication cables. The selected “Master” receiv- er then “knows” how many total channels it is looking for. It can scan the available frequencies, checking for local interfer- ence sources, selecting a group of channels that will all work together (using a built-in frequency plan), and automatically setting the other receivers accordingly. Once this procedure is completed, it’s just a matter of setting the transmitter frequencies to match those of the receivers.
