AUDIX's latest innovation in wireless microphone technology is a game-changer for performers and audio engineers alike. The company has introduced two new wireless vocal capsules, the Novacore NCEC and NCTH, which offer an upgrade to your existing wireless mic setup without the need for a complete replacement. This is a significant development in the audio industry, as it allows for a more accessible and cost-effective way to achieve high-quality vocal recordings.
What makes these capsules truly remarkable is AUDIX's proprietary VLM (Very Low Mass) technology. This technology ensures that the diaphragm remains light and responsive, resulting in a natural vocal reproduction and reduced need for EQ adjustments at the front of house. This is a huge advantage for high-energy performers who may not be as careful with their microphone handling, as internal vibration isolation keeps handling noise to a minimum.
The NCEC and NCTH capsules cater to different situations. The NCEC has a wider pickup pattern, making it forgiving for performers who move around or don't have a perfect mic technique. It's well-suited for worship environments and general lead vocals. On the other hand, the NCTH has a tighter cone of sound, which helps with feedback control on loud stages. This versatility allows for a more tailored approach to vocal recording, depending on the specific needs of the performer or audio engineer.
One of the most exciting aspects of these capsules is their compatibility with AUDIX's new Novacore platform. This full digital wireless system offers 24-bit audio, under 3 ms latency, AES-256 encryption, and Dante networking built into the multi-channel receivers. This level of technology integration allows for a seamless and secure wireless experience, ensuring that the audio quality remains pristine.
Steve Young, AUDIX Director of Sales, highlights the benefits of these new capsules: 'These new capsules allow performers to connect directly with the trusted AUDIX stage voicing, regardless of the system they are currently running. By bringing our proprietary VLM technology into the digital wireless domain, we're allowing customers to effortlessly achieve pristine, mix-ready vocals on their existing setups.'
In my opinion, this development is a significant step forward in wireless microphone technology. It offers a more accessible and cost-effective way to achieve high-quality vocal recordings, while also providing a seamless and secure wireless experience. The integration of AUDIX's proprietary VLM technology and the Novacore platform is particularly fascinating, as it allows for a more natural and efficient vocal reproduction. This development is sure to have a lasting impact on the audio industry, and I can't wait to see how it will shape the future of wireless microphone technology.
