The mic is definitely good for live performances and can be recorded with great results, however, if you are planning on professional quality recordings, you might consider a higher price range for a wireless mic that would have a lower background noise level and higher dynamic range like the EW-D digital versions of these wireless mics. Hope this makes sense and hope this helps ...
Hi. Thanks for the video overview. I'm considering getting a pair of these as roving mics for audience questions during Q&A sessions. How do you find the handling noise o the ABS bodies?
I find the handling noise average for a wireless mic of that price range. I also find that if you are using a high pass filter (HPF) on the mic input you can reduce handling noise. I also find the sound quality is significantly clearer than most wireless mics of this price range. Hope this helps.
Possibly a stupid, but on the website for the dual wireless system. It said “Plus, with the ability to utilise up to ten systems at the same time, you've got a system that grows with you.” Does this mean I can add more wireless handsets? If yes, is it advisable? Or should we just invest in a different system with let’s say a quad channel? Thanks
It basically means you can have multiple channels (one mic & receiver pair) operating at the same time. You could possibly save money buying a quad system but usually having multiple single or dual systems reduces risk of equipment failure stopping all 4 mics. Generally if you are using mics in a venue, you might also consider the XSW 2 or ew100 G4 series with detachable antennas which will give you the opportunity to place the antennas away from the receivers for better reception. Hope this helps.
@@NetworxAudioVideoInc Hello James, I have added two microphones in one receiver but no clue how to make both of them work at the same time, I can only use one at a time as microphones are sync in two channels( need changing the channel to use the second microphone) Kind Regards
A single channel receiver like the XSW-1 835 only supports a single mic at a time. A dual channel receiver like the XSW-1 835 dual can support 2 mics at the same time. You would need to pair each microphone to each receiver section. Hope this makes sense and hope this helps.
Hi I have a duel set brand new and 1 mic is loader than the other and I have swapped in my mixing desk and makes no difference so I no its not my mixing desk. Any help much appreciated
I have this microphone for a while now, and I have been enjoying using it at my parties, but unfortunately I have been experiencing a "squeecking" or vibrating sounds from it lately. Can you please advise me on how to eliminate this problem. How do I use the SQ button on the back of the receiver and the frequency button on the handheld mic? Please help by replying. Thanks
If the issue is related to RF interference, you might need scan for a new frequency as shown in the video. You can also adjust the squelch to tune out noise but this will reduce the effective range of the wireless mic. You should try walking around with the mic after setting this to find the best adjustment for your venue. You should also always use new batteries to ensure the best reception possible. If the issue is more related to distortion, you might need to lower the gain of the wireless mic and redo the mixer input settings to correct this. Here is a video that can help with the setup: ruclips.net/video/Md6-MEsiFDg/видео.html Hope this helps ...
Now how can I sing with the music? If the music is on my laptop, should I connect my laptop the this set? I’m a bit confused. Because I need to sing and the music should be at the same frequency of my microphone, right?
If you are connecting your laptop to a mixer and also connecting your mic to a mixer then they should both work together. If you are trying to connect your mic to your laptop, you will need and audio interface to connect your wireless mic into. Hope this makes sense and hope this helps ...
@@NetworxAudioVideoInc thank you for your feedback but it will be great if you make s video demonstrating this. I think many people want to know how to do it especially beginners. Thank you again
To my knowledge the XSW rack mount kits are for the XSW 2 series only as they have removable antennas as opposed to fixed internal antennas for the XSW 1 series. Hope this helps ...
I have one of these mics. Had it couple of years , it’s recently started to not turn on or at the very least, take a while to turn on. Have you heard of the switches being faulty? is there a fix?
Sorry I have not heard of that issue. You might want to go to the Sennheiser website and click on the support link and then go to the repair section. From there you can fill in a warranty repair request. They will give you the details of how you can send it in to get fixed. Hope this helps ...
The receiver can be paired with any transmitter of the same series. That being said, only one transmitter should be on at a time as more than one transmitting on the same frequency can cause issues including annoying sounds. Hope this helps.
I am glad you liked the video, thank you. Typically a residential AV receiver would not have a Mic input and normally would not accommodate the connection of a wireless mic. If the intended use is only to use the mic, then you could try using adapter cables to connect the line level output of the wireless mic receiver into an available input on the receiver. The adapter cables will vary depending on the connectors used on both ends. If the intent is to use the mic along with a music source playing simultaneously, you will need to use an external mixer to connect both the mic and music source to and then connect the mixer to the AV receiver. Hope this makes sense and hope this is helpful.
@@NetworxAudioVideoInc thanks much for the prompt response. Yes, trying to connect it to a mixer for karaoke :) Do I need a XLR (XSW) to TRS (Mic on Mixer) cable? And if I use XLR to TRS cable, do I need to set XSW to Mic? Thank you.
@@NetworxAudioVideoInc I used the correct cable to connect it to a receiver (RCA to receiver) but there is no sound. XSW shows connection to the microphone is good (green). Anything I need to check? Thanks much.
I plugged the wireless mic into an audio mixer that was connected to a powered speaker. I could have connected it directly to the powered speaker and that would have worked as well. Hope this helps.
Yes it will on certain models that have a microphone input. If you have not purchased one yet you can search on the Sony website and view the full specifications on the different available models to see which have a microphone input. You may need to confirm from a manual if a microphone will work on all speakers when using multiple speakers. Hope this helps.
My setup for that video was using a wired mic outside of the camera view so you can not see the mic for most of the video. During the demo portion of the wireless mic, I actually move the wired mic into camera view for a few seconds to show the comparison of sound quality. Hope this all makes sense, and I hope I was able to answer your question.
Thank you for the question. The video between 0:10 and 0:20 shows a round sticker on the box that says Raise your Voice with e835 written below it. Hope this helps ...
I use these to dj weddings and so far they’ve just been terrible. Once I walk out onto the floor I get massive radio burst. Has anyone else experienced this?
@@NetworxAudioVideoInc actually I had done all my scans manually so I feel stupid but relieved. I just found out how to perform an auto scan so hopefully it’s just ignorance on my part.
I have had this microphone for years and just learned everything about it right now. Smh. Thank you so much!!!!
I am glad it was helpful
this is the first time i saw this Sennheiser wireless microphone. how am i supposed to adjust it's volume once i connected it on a mixer?
Thank you for the question. Please see this video on setting up input channels ... this should help ruclips.net/video/Md6-MEsiFDg/видео.html
Debating on getting this coming from shure. All the good ones from shure are out of stock til around April or may 2023.
You might try to see if the components are available separately. Hope this helps ...
Can i use it to record vocal live performances? Great video!!

Is there a phantom power built in this wireless system?
is there a proper carrying case that I can put this in for transportation?
Take a look at Gator Cases. They have a Case Finder to help you find a carry case that fits.
