Exceptional Sound with the MKE 2 Lavalier Microphone

The included MKE 2 omnidirectional lav mic is a premium, sweat-resistant microphone known for its natural, broadcast-ready sound. Its discreet design makes it easy to conceal, while the omnidirectional pickup pattern ensures consistent audio, even if the speaker turns their head.

Paired with Sennheiser’s HDX compander technology, the system delivers crystal-clear audio with minimal background noise, even in RF-heavy environments.

Reliable Wireless Performance in Demanding Locations

Whether you're filming on a busy city street or in a crowded venue, the EW 512P G4 is built to perform. With a wide 88 MHz tuning bandwidth, 3520 selectable UHF frequencies, and up to 50 mW of RF output power, you get a stable, interference-free signal.

• Operate up to 32 mics simultaneously in the same location

• Adaptive-diversity reception for stable transmission up to 330 feet

• Infrared sync makes setup quick and hassle-free

• Frequency scan helps find the cleanest available channel

Durable, Field-Ready Design

Built with rugged all-metal housings, both the transmitter and receiver are made to withstand the rigors of professional use. The compact, lightweight bodypack features a locking connector to secure your mic, and its rounded edges ensure comfort for on-talent wear.

The camera-mount receiver attaches easily using the included shoe mount, while two output cables (XLR and 3.5mm) provide versatile connectivity to a wide range of cameras and audio gear.

A daylight-readable LED display on both units keeps you informed of battery status, audio level, and signal strength.
