Lectrosonics Introduces the HMa Digital Hybrid Wireless Plug-On TransmitterLectrosonics introduces the latest edition of their Digital Hybrid Wireless transmitters -- the HMa plug-on transmitter. The HMa will ideally match any microphone or line level source, the company says, with its wide input gain range of 44dB and wide tuning range of 76MHz in 100kHz or 25kH steps for up to 3,072 frequencies per band. A USB port makes firmware updates possible in the field. The HMa is designed for a variety of wireless microphone applications including wireless boom, plant miking, and ENG in particular. The HMa combines 24-bit digital audio with analog FM transmission resulting in superior radio reliability with superb audio performance, the company says. Audio frequency response of the HMa is 40Hz - 20kHz +- 1dB. Phantom power is selectable at 5V, 15V, and 48V, or can be turned off for use with dynamic microphones and line level signal sources. The patented Digital Hybrid Wireless process delivers compandor-free audio and uses an analog FM carrier to transmit a specially encoded signal which delivers digital audio quality while spectrum efficient. The signature cam lock and quick release mechanism makes it easy to securely attach any microphone then detach it in seconds. "The HMa is the latest in our long history of making professional plug-on transmitters for a wide range of microphone applications," says Karl Winkler, vice president of sales/service for Lectrosonics. "The HMa will be a perfect match for any of our receivers, including the Venue and Venue 2, the SR series, the LR, and the UCR series, and new receivers yet to come." The HMa Plug-On transmitter is the newest product in Lectrosonics' family of large bandwidth Digital Hybrid Wireless products, which include the HHA Handheld transmitter, LT Beltpack Transmitter, the SSM Micro Beltpack Transmitter, and the Venue 2 Six-Channel Modular Receiver. MSRP for the HMa Plug on Transmitter is $1,750. Expected availability is December 2015.
