Sennheiser XSW-D PORTABLE INTERVIEW SET Digital Camera-Mount Wireless Plug-On Microphone Kit with Shure VP64A Mic (2.4 GHz)

Sennheiser XSW-D Portable Interview Set with Shure VP64A Mic

The Sennheiser XSW-D Portable Interview Set with Shure VP64A Microphone, available from B&H, is a complete digital wireless microphone system for on-the-go interviews and field production. Designed with simplicity and portability in mind, this set gives content creators, mobile journalists, and videographers a powerful, user-friendly solution for capturing clean, professional-grade audio, even in unpredictable environments.

Effortless Field Interview Recording

This kit is perfect for man-on-the-street interviews, red carpet coverage, and spontaneous vox pops. The included Shure VP64A omnidirectional handheld mic is especially well-suited for scenarios where the microphone is passed back and forth between the interviewer and subjects. Its wide pickup pattern ensures consistent, natural sound from all directions, reducing the need for precise mic placement.

What’s Included

You get everything you need to start recording right away:

• XSW-D XLR Female TX Plug-On Transmitter

• XSW-D Mini Jack RX Camera-Mount Receiver

• Shure VP64A Dynamic Handheld Microphone

• Coiled 3.5mm output cable, hot shoe mount adapter, and charging accessories

Simple Setup with Plug-and-Play Operation

The system is incredibly easy to use. Just plug in the mic, turn it on, and start recording. The transmitter and receiver are pre-paired at the factory, so there’s no syncing or complex menu navigation. A single button handles power and pairing, and a simple LED indicator lets you know everything’s working.

Designed for Camera-Mount Use

The compact receiver mounts securely to your DSLR, mirrorless camera, or camcorder using the included hot shoe adapter. Its 3.5mm output connects directly to your camera's mic input, delivering clean, broadcast-ready audio directly into your video recordings. With the right adapter (not included), it also works with tablets or smartphones for mobile productions.

Clean Wireless Audio with Sennheiser Reliability

The XSW-D system transmits on the license-free 2.4 GHz band, which avoids interference from TV broadcasts or radio signals. Thanks to intelligent frequency management, the system automatically switches channels to maintain the best connection, even in crowded wireless environments. You get stable performance at distances up to 250 feet line-of-sight.

Powered for the Day

With built-in, USB-rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, you can expect up to 5 hours of operation per charge. A 1-hour quick charge gives you 50% battery life, and you can even recharge while in use, making it ideal for all-day shoots and busy production schedules.

Expandable and Flexible

As your production needs grow, so can your system. The XSW-D platform supports additional transmitters and receivers from the same series, allowing you to switch between different mic types like lavaliers or headsets. It also supports multi-pairing, so you can quickly change between multiple transmitters, one at a time, linked to the same receiver.

Built for Professionals and Beginners Alike

Whether you're a seasoned content creator or just starting out with wireless audio, this system combines pro-level sound quality with streamlined usability, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, from interviews and documentaries to event coverage and corporate video.
