November 19 2015, 03:00

At this year’s AES Show in New York, Lectrosonics introduced the latest edition of their acclaimed Digital Hybrid Wireless handheld transmitters – the HHa. The HHa features a wide tuning range of 75 MHz or 3 standard Lectrosonics blocks, selectable RF power of 50 or 100 mW, IR sync for quick setup, and a USB port for firmware updates in the field. The HHa is ideal for a variety of wireless microphone applications including high quality speech, live vocal performance, theatre, broadcast, AV rental and houses of worship.

The HHa transmitter is a perfect companion to the new Venue 2 wide bandwidth high-performance modular receiver system. With a frequency response from 40 Hz to 20 kHz (+- 1dB, 105 dB (A) signal to noise ratio), the patented Digital Hybrid Wireless process delivers compandor-free audio and uses an analog FM carrier to transmit a specially encoded signal which delivers digital audio quality while remaining highly spectrum efficient.

Lectrosonics’ Venue 2  Digital Hybrid Wireless modular receiver was purposely designed to address the challenges of increasingly congested RF environments and employs new IQ dynamic tracking filters that offer exceptional rejection of out-of-band RF energy and enable very tight channel spacing. A high-resolution front panel display allows for detailed programming and monitoring. Using Lectrosonics’ included Wireless Designer software, the Venue 2 can also be programmed, coordinated and monitored over Ethernet or USB.

The Lectrosonics HHa’s standard capsule mount accepts a wide range of industry-standard dynamic, electret and condenser microphone elements. The HHa features a programmable external button which can be set as mute, cough, power, talkback, or bypassed altogether.
 

“I’m really excited that the handheld transmitter is now joining our wide-tuning product group as a companion to the SSM, LT and Venue 2. The wide tuning range makes it much easier to find an open frequency for good performance, and cuts down by a third the amount of inventory needed to cover the available spectrum. Along with that, we've engineered some handy features into this unit to make it easy to set up and use, along with a ton of flexibility and power right at the fingertips of the working pros out there,” says Karl Winkler, Vice President of Sales/Service for Lectrosonics. “The HHa ought to find a home throughout the world on stages, in interviews, and on TV.”
 
The  HHa Handheld transmitter is one of the new products in Lectrosonics powerful family of large bandwidth Digital Hybrid Wireless products, which include the LT Beltpack Transmitter, the SSM Micro Beltpack Transmitter and the Venue 2 Six-Channel Modular Receiver. MSRP for the HHa is $1,750.
