Sennheiser EW 512 G3 - Wireless Presentation System

Sennheiser EW 512 G3

The Sennheiser EW 512 G3 is a wireless lavalier microphone system intended for theatre and video production purposes.  The included MKE-2 EW is a discreet omni-directional electret lav mic that is easily hidden within clothing while still picking up clear and concise speech. The mic then connects to the small SK 500 G3 body-pack transmitter which can be placed on a belt line or within a pocket. Sennheiser’s scan and sync functionality means communication and signal transmission between the transmitter and the EM 500 G3 rack receiver is a quick and easy process.

Which Channel Do I Need?

Channel 70 (863-865 Mhz) can be used by the public without a license, but is limited to four wireless systems within the same space. This is ideal for smaller events with few systems.

Channel 38 (606-614 Mhz) is for larger events and must be used when more than four systems are in operation. The use of Channel 38 requires an annual license.
