New UWP Series – Evolving with Extra
Robustness and Functionality
The Sony UWP Series UHF Wireless Microphone Package, introduced in 2003, set a
milestone in the history of wireless microphone systems with its uncompromised ease
of operation. It brought a number of significant benefits to wireless applications,
including highly stable audio reception by utilizing a space diversity reception
system and proven interference-free multi-channel operation. Since its introduction,
the UWP Series has been widely adopted around the world for a variety of
applications such as news-gathering, interviewing, professional video production,
entertainment, live events, and conferences to name just a few.
Now, Sony has further evolved the UWP Series by introducing five new packages –
the UWP-V1, UWP-V2, UWP-V6, UWP-X7, and UWP-X8 – for a much higher level of
stability, mobility, robustness, and operational convenience. Each package comes
with both a transmitter and a receiver, allowing you to get up and running straight
from the box.
The UWP-V Series models – the UWP-V1, UWP-V2, and UWP-V6 – come with a
transmitter and portable-type receiver, suitable for use with Sony's camcorders for
ENG and EFP applications, while the UWP-X Series models – the UWP-X7 and UWP-X8
– come with a transmitter and a tuner module that can be installed into a mixer or
tuner base unit, ideal for PA applications. The transmitters include the UTX-B2
bodypack transmitter, the UTX-H2 handheld microphone, and the UTX-P1 plug-on
transmitter, while the receivers include the URX-P2 portable tuner and the URX-M2
tuner module.
One of the most outstanding features of the new UWP Series is its extremely robust
metal chassis, which enables it to withstand even harsh operational environments
and makes it perfect for use out in the field. In addition, various functionalities have
been enhanced on the new UWP Series, such as auto channel scanning, selectable
MIC/LINE input, and extended operating time.
With a wide choice of packages, stable transmission/reception capability, and
enhanced operability, the UWP Series is an ideal choice for all types of wireless
sound-gathering microphone applications.
