Sony URX-S03D/K33 Receiver

Overview
The UWP-D series wireless microphone transmission systems utilize a true diversity reception system to achieve highly stable reception. This is made possible by two receiving antennas, each with their own RF circuits. The system automatically selects the stronger signal from the two antennas for output, reducing interruptions in reception.

Sony Digital Audio Processing is used in the UWP-D series to improve sound quality and transient response performance compared to traditional analogue wireless systems. This technology allows for accurate reproduction of sounds such as bells, tee shots, and handclaps. The system also offers advanced features such as automatic channel setting, channel scanning, and compatibility with Sony camcorders for easy setup and wide frequency coverage.

True diversity reception system for stable reception
Wireless microphone transmission systems are typically subject to interruptions in reception (RF signal dropout), but the UWP-D series reduces this to a minimum. Utilising a true diversity reception system, it achieves highly stable reception because of its two receiving antennas, each with RF circuits. RF signals from the two antennas are compared and the stronger signal is automatically selected for output.

Sony Digital Audio Processing for high quality sound
The UWP-D Series wireless microphone systems uses Sony Digital Audio Processing to improve sound quality and transient response performance compared to conventional analogue wireless systems. It provides superb transient response performance. Analogue companding systems cannot accurately reproduce sounds such as a bell, tee shot or handclap, but Sony Digital Audio Processing reproduces them faithfully.

Direct digital connection to camcorders
The URX-S03D provides two-channel (with XDCAM camcorders) and single-channel (with HDCAM camcorders) digital connection via a D-sub 15-pin interface. With HDCAM camcorders, two audio signals from two transmitters can be output in the single channel as a two-channel mixing function. Sony camcorders can also show each wireless microphone’s RF/AF level in the viewfinder.

Automatic channel setting mode
The Auto Set channel mode allows the user to find and set available frequencies to use within the operating frequencies of the system. The receiver will automatically set the transmitter channel using the IR Sync feature.

Fast and easy channel scan
With its Clear Channel Scan, Active Channel Scan function and IR Sync features, the system detects unoccupied channels and selects the most appropriate channel automatically, for fast and easy system setup.

Compatibility with Sony 800 and UWP Series
DSP enables a digital compander to match Sony’s analogue wireless system. The The UWP-D Series transmitters and receivers are also compatible with Sony’s WL-800 Series and UWP Series, allowing users to switch between different companding modes.

Wide frequency coverage
The extra wide switching bandwidth covers a wide area, with a wide choice of channels available – please refer to product specifications for more information.
