AKG WMS 40 UHF FOR VOCALS

HANDHELD MICS FOR LEAD AND BACKING VOCALS

The HT 40 handheld transmitter is an excel- lent choice for both handheld and stand- mounted use. Handheld microphones are also suited for applications where more than one person will talk into the microphone, such as talk shows or interviews with people in the audience.

The design specification for the WMS 40 Series lists the best possible audio quality as the number one priority. The result explains the success of the WMS 40 system. This UHF

wireless microphone system has been opti- mized for use in smaller venues such as clubs, rehearsal rooms, or local community centers, is easy to use, and provides outstanding price/performance.

The heart of the HT 40 handheld transmitter is the AKG D 880M microphone element that delivers both an excellent sound and very good intelligibility. This microphone element uses the same transducer as the hot-selling, proven AKG D 880M hardwire microphone. Made at

the AKG factory in Vienna, Austria, each trans- ducer must pass extremely stringent quality tests before being approved for shipping. This is another reason why both professional and amateur vocalists appreciate this transducer. It guarantees excellent results from the start and is almost indestructible.

With its compact, rack-mountable receiver, the AKG WMS 40 is an easy-to-use, conveni- ent wireless system, and once you tried it you won't want to do without it anymore.

Excellent response

The HT 40 handheld transmitter uses the proven AKG D 880M microphone element. This dynamic transducer has been specifi- cally designed for lead and backing vocals and helps even less experienced vocalists to make themselves heard. An integrated wind and pop screen effectively reduces breath and pop noise as well as sibilance. It is easy to remove the windscreen from the front grill for cleaning.

Massive front grill

An extremely rugged spring steel wire-mesh cap optimally protects the transducer capsule beneath it from damage in tough night-after-night usage on stage. The proven AKG D 880 microphone element easily survives a drop from approx. 3 1/2 feet (1 m) to a hard stone floor. It has been designed to take the kind of abuse usually encountered on tour.

Rack mounting
