Engineered to deliver studio quality performance to the wireless world, the Earthworks hand-tuned WL40V features fast impulse response, wide frequency response and high SPL handling.

Description

It excels at distance capture, making it ideal for broadcast, corporate, and live performance applications. Its near-perfect hypercardioid polar response and 30Hz - 40kHz extended flat frequency response translate to a natural on and off-axis performance coupled with benchmark levels of sonic clarity and presence. The capsule’s ultra-fast impulse response delivers a highly accurate reproduction of the nuanced details of vocals.

Interchangeable with any screw-on-type handheld transmitters that receive a 31.3 mm/pitch 1.0 mm threading, the electret-based WL40V works with transmitters from Lectrosonics®, Line 6®, Shure® and Sony®. Its circuitry has been specifically hardened for use with 2.4GHz wireless systems, which frequently exhibit noise with electret-based capsules, making it an ideal replacement capsule for those systems.

  • Benchmark levels of clarity and detail
