More flexible gear means less \u2014 less for you to carry in a bag or fit in a case, and less gear to rent for a gig. That\u2019s the philosophy behind the Astral TX digital wireless transmitter. We engineered it to be compatible with more input sources than any other transmitter, including two- or three-wire lavs, dynamic mics, phantom-powered condenser mics, guitars, balanced line-level sources, and even AES digital mics. The Astral TX transmitter\u2019s multipurpose input saves you from having to pack or rent more transmitters.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Astral TX transmitter boasts industry-leading features like Sound Devices\u2019 proprietary NexLink 2.4 GHz long-range wireless remote control technology that allows multiple Astral TX transmitters to be controlled and timecode synced dependably from an Astral ARX16 or Astral ARX8 digital receiver. NexLink works over long distances \u2013 even through Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and other 2.4 GHz interference. The Astral TX transmitter\u2019s long-range modulation achieves excellent operational range. The Astral TX also includes Sound Devices\u2019 proprietary SpectraBand technology, which enables the Astral TX transmitter to tune over a super wide range of 169-1525 MHz.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Features<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Worldwide VHF and UHF tuning range from 169 MHz-1525 MHz.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Up to 12 hours battery runtime.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Eco-friendly operation from rechargeable Lithium batteries or from standard AA batteries.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Built-in battery charger via USB-C.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Full remote control of the Astral TX via A20-Remote companion app and from Astral ARX16 and Astral ARX8 via long-range NexLink.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>State-of-the-art 100% digital long-range modulation delivers the longest transmission distance of any system on the market.\u202f<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>RF Power output from 2 mW to 40 mW.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Lemo input supports 2-wire or 3-wire mono lav, balanced mic, switchable 12, 48V phantom, balanced line-level, AES3, AES42 (compatible with Schoeps SuperCMIT), and guitar (w\/ optional Smart Guitar Cable).\u202f<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>GainForward Architecture \u2013 no gain control to worry about on the Astral TX.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Full 10 Hz \u2013 20 kHz audio bandwidth.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>8-Series, fully balanced mic preamp built in (140 dB dynamic range).<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Ultra-quiet lavalier mic preamp (130+ dB dynamic range).<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Built-in 32-bit float, 48 kHz recorder with removable micro-SD card.\u202f<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Ultra-stable timecode built in, auto jammed via wireless NexLink.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Sunlight-readable e-Paper screen for control and display.
