New Shure Wireless Microphone BLX & GLX-D Series

Grant's Perspective on ... the new Shure wireless BLX and GLX-D microphone series is great for schools.

Shure has recently introduced two new  microphone series that I can see as being attractive to the education market. Both systems are available with a choice of hand held mic, lavalier mic, head set or instrument input models.

The BLX  series has up to 16 different channels so multiple microphones can used simultaneously in different classrooms. The BLX microphones also have a great price point (contact us for a quote).

The GLX-D series microphones are available with 8 different channels and come with a rechargeable battery. The body pack system also includes a guitar receiver that mounts on guitar pedal boards and includes a guitar tuner.

See the GLX-D video below.

Wireless Micrphone Frequency Changes: Will Your System Still Work?

Grant's Perspective on ... wireless microphone users need to check their unit's operating frequency.

The end of this month will see the  first changes to the use of wireless communications frequencies. Industry Canada has reallocated the 698 - 806 MHz spectrum to make more room for cell phone systems. This means that if you use wireless microphones you need to know what frequency they are set to or you may soon have a rude surprise.

Sennheiser Canada has released details of a trade in allowance for people that have systems that will soon not work properly. A good idea! Contact one of our Inland AV locations for more information on wireless microphone systems.
