5. Connecting the Audio Output

The Encore I receiver provides both a fixed mic level BALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT XLR

(14)and an adjustable line level UNBALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT 1/4" JACK (13). The level from the UNBALANCED OUTPUT is controlled by the rear panel VOLUME CONTROL (6). (Note: As when making any connection, make sure the amplifier or mixing board volume is at the minimum level before plugging in the receiver to avoid possible sound system damage. Also make sure that the phantom power on the input of the mixer is turned OFF before making connection to the receiver.)

a.Instrument Connection (using the WGT-15 instrument transmitter) Insert an audio cord with a 1/4" mono phone plug in the UNBALANCED OUTPUT JACK (13) on the rear panel of the receiver. Plug the other end of the cord into an amplifier, effects, or mixing board. Adjust the VOLUME CON- TROL (6) on the Encore I receiver clockwise to about 3/4 rotation, until the volume level is comfortable for your application. This setting is roughly equivalent to a direct instrument cord connection. Turning the volume up to maximum will provide 4dB gain over a cord.

b.Microphone Connection (using the WLT-15 transmitter with either a headset or lavalier microphone or the WHT-15 handheld microphone transmitter) For microphone use, either the BALANCED MIC AUDIO OUTPUT XLR (14) or the 1/4" line level UNBALANCED OUTPUT (13) can be used. The XLR output is set at a non-adjustable microphone level, similar to hardwired mic levels. Plug an XLR connector into the XLR output jack on the rear of the unit and plug the other end into your amplifier or mixing board. (Note: Make sure the phantom power on your mixing board is turned off and the volume is turned down when making connections.)

For your convenience, the XLR output level is preset at the factory and is not adjustable with the receiver volume control. To use the 1/4" UNBALANCED OUTPUT JACK (13), follow the instructions for the Instrument Connection (above), except start with the receiver volume at 1/2 MAX and adjust the volume control until the volume level is optimal. If the volume control is set too high, you may overload your mixer or amp.

Encore I specifications

The Nady Systems Encore I represents a significant advancement in wireless microphone technology, delivering clarity and reliability to both performers and presenters. Designed with versatility in mind, the Encore I is suitable for a wide range of applications, including live performances, conferences, and educational settings.

One of the main features of the Encore I is its UHF (Ultra High Frequency) operation. With a frequency range that typically spans from 600 to 700 MHz, it provides better sound quality and reduced interference compared to VHF systems. The UHF transmission allows for a broader selection of channels, making it easier for users to find a clear frequency in crowded environments, which is a common challenge in today’s wireless landscape.

The Encore I also boasts a simple yet effective automatic frequency scanning feature. This technology scans the available frequencies and selects the best one to minimize dropouts and interference. This ensures that the user can focus on their performance without worrying about technical difficulties. The system supports multiple channels, allowing for multi-channel setups with multiple performers.

Another standout characteristic of the Encore I is its rugged build quality. Designed for the rigors of frequent use, the microphone and receiver are constructed to withstand the demands of touring musicians and event hosts alike. The handheld microphone features a high-quality dynamic capsule that captures sound accurately while minimizing feedback and handling noise.

The Encore I also includes an integrated LED indicator for battery status, providing real-time notifications to users about power levels. This preventative measure is crucial for performances, allowing artists to replace or recharge batteries before they run out.

Furthermore, the system offers a range of up to 300 feet in open spaces, providing freedom of movement, which is essential for dynamic performances. The compact and lightweight receiver can be easily mounted or placed on a tabletop, facilitating quick setups in various environments.

Overall, the Nady Systems Encore I stands out due to its robust features, user-friendly operation, and reliable performance. Whether for live stage applications or intimate gatherings, this wireless microphone system delivers exceptional audio fidelity and ease of use, making it an excellent choice for anyone in need of quality sound reinforcement.
