During the course of our experience at NAB 2007 we received a lot of positive feedback on the interview audio quality of our video podcasts. I wish we could somehow take credit as the NAB Audio Gods, but we can’t. All the praise goes to the Sennheiser Evolution Wireless G2 system we used (and abused) during our extensive coverage of the NAB tradeshow. In the video attached to this post we talk about the challenges of the shoot, and how the G2 handled them with ease. In particular, it’s ability to quickly auto-scan for open frequencies and multiple banks of frequency ranges were essential…the tradeshow floor is like the wild west of wireless traffic.

The EW100 (EW112PG2) package comes with a wireless transmitter beltpack, lapel mic, and a camera-shoe mountable receiver unit with adapter cables for both XLR and 1/8″ mini audio jacks. The optional handheld microphone we used primarily for our NAB interviews is the Super-Cardioid SKM545G2 handheld transmitter. It does a wonderful job of rejecting off-axis noise and was essential for obtaining usable audio on the noisy and distracting NAB showroom floor.

Note: Before purchasing a G2 Evolution wireless system, you should use the Frequency Finder to determine the correct range for your needs…A, B, or C. You can also check out the official specs at Senn’s USA site.
