RADIO LINKS FOR PORTABLE INSTRUMENTS
AKG WMS 40 UHF FOR INSTRUMENTS
26 www.akg.com
Mini XLR connector
A locking 3-pin mini XLR connector pro-
vides a reliable connection to a head-
worn microphone from AKG.
ON/MUTE/OFF switch
Setting the switch to the "MUTE"
position mutes the audio signal,
while the transmitter continues
radiating the RF carrier frequency.
This prevents the receiver from
being disturbed by other transmit-
ters while the microphone is "off
the air".
Flexible antenna
To maintain perfect transmission, the
antenna should be visible from the recei-
ver location at all times. So make sure
never to cover the antenna with clothes or
other elements of the costume.
Battery status LED
With a minimum battery life of 35 hours, the PT 40
gives you more hours of fun per dollar than most of its
competitors. And if the battery status LED illuminates
after all, don’t panic: you still got 50 minutes before
the batteries are dead so you can easily steal away for
a minute to replace them.
PT 40 Portable transmitter
MIC/LINE selector and GAIN control
Set the MIC/LINE selector (left) to the correct position depending
on whether you connected a microphone or instrument to the
transmitter. Since instruments deliver a much higher output
level than microphones do, set the selector to “LINE” for instru-
ments and to “MIC” for microphones to avoid spectacularly
overloading the transmitter's audio input or getting an extreme-
ly weak audio signal. The GAIN control (right) lets you fine
adjust the audio section gain to the output level of the connec-
ted instrument or microphone.
More and more musicians prefer wireless
microphones, so AKG was asked to create a
wireless system specifically for "minimally
invasive" miking of acoustic instruments
with no on-board pickup. The proven AKG
MicroMic Series microphones in conjunc-
tion with the AKG PT 40 bodypack trans-
mitter and SR 40 portable receiver provide
a solution offering exceptional quality,
price/performance, and flexibility. Since
the high quality MicroMic Series micro-
phone capsules require high-performance
production lines they are made at the AKG
factory in Vienna, Austria. Expensive UHF
technology has been optimized for the spe-
cific requirements of wireless systems for
smaller venues such as clubs, rehearsal
rooms, or local community centers.
The WMS 40 provides fully professional
audio and UHF transmission quality adjus-
ted to the needs of musicians on a budget.
The MicroMic Series includes a wide choice
of small, light microphones designed for
easy mounting on various instruments and
liberates musicians from the constraints
imposed by stand-mounted microphones.
Of course, all MicroMics will leave no trace
on the instrument when you remove them.
Using an AKG WMS 40 Bodypack System
with AKG MicroMic Series microphones is
an optimum solution for acoustic guitar,
violin, banjo, zither, accordion, various
wind instruments, and many other applica-
tions.
