From dual vocalists sharing a stage to presenters handing off between sessions, professional productions need wireless microphones that remain clear, secure and dependable from the first word to the final encore. The Audio-Technica ATW-D50-DRX-2H 2-channel wireless system combines a LINK-enabled ATW-DR3220LK dual-channel receiver with two ATW-DT3202 handheld transmitters, each equipped with an ATW-C510 cardioid dynamic capsule. Operating across the 470.125–607.875MHz UHF range, the system delivers 48kHz digital audio, up to 120dB of dynamic range and AES-256 encryption with an operating range up to 328'. Switchable RF modes, High Density operation, network connectivity and long-lasting rechargeable transmitters make it a versatile professional solution for live music, houses of worship, corporate AV, theater and other productions requiring two reliable handheld channels.

Flexible RF Modes Adapt to Challenging Environments

The half-rack ATW-DR3220LK receiver offers two selectable RF operating modes to match the demands of each deployment. Normal mode uses Antenna Combining Diversity for efficient everyday operation, while Robust mode employs MRC True Diversity for increased RF stability in more challenging environments. Standard operation supports up to 17 frequencies within a 6MHz TV channel with typical latency of 2.1 ms, while High Density mode expands capacity to as many as 47 frequencies in the same bandwidth with 3.3 ms typical latency. Up to four receivers can also be linked and operated from a single pair of antennas without requiring a separate antenna distribution system, simplifying higher-channel-count installations.

Dual Handhelds Deliver Clear, Adaptable Vocal Capture

Both ATW-DT3202 handheld transmitters include Audio-Technica ATW-C510 cardioid dynamic capsules, providing focused vocal pickup and a 90Hz–18kHz response for singers, presenters and other spoken-word applications. The interchangeable capsule design also supports additional Audio-Technica options including the Artist Elite ATW-C4100 and ATW-C6100 dynamics as well as ATW-C3300, ATW-C5400 and ATW-C710 condensers, allowing each transmitter to be tailored to different voices and performance requirements. External controls, OLED displays, programmable mute and IR synchronization streamline operation across both channels.

SideTrack Adds Discreet Communication From the Stage

Audio-Technica's SideTrack function expands each handheld beyond conventional wireless vocal operation by allowing audio to be switched to a second output for discreet communication with fellow performers or audio engineers. This provides a convenient way to handle production cues and off-air communication without requiring a separate microphone system. Each transmitter also includes a 120Hz, 12dB/octave high-pass filter and selectable 1, 10 or 20mW RF output in Standard mode, giving engineers additional control over source cleanup and RF deployment for different production environments.

LINK Networking Simplifies Professional System Management

Audio-Technica LINK connectivity and 100 Mbps IP control make the ATW-DR3220LK well suited to sophisticated installed and production environments, while onboard DSP provides high-pass filtering, four-band EQ and compression directly within the receiver. Power can come from the included AC adapter or IEEE 802.3at Class 4 PoE+, with PoE+ also available as a redundant backup source. BNC antenna connections, antenna power and rackmount capability allow the receiver to integrate cleanly into portable systems, equipment racks and permanent installations.

Rechargeable Power Supports Extended Productions

Each handheld transmitter uses a custom LI-320 rechargeable lithium-ion battery with 3,200mAh capacity, providing up to approximately 17.5 hours of operation at 10mW for long performances and production days. Batteries can be charged while installed in the transmitters with the optional ATW-CHG6 two-bay charging station or removed and charged separately with the included ATW-CHGA6 external battery charger. Complete with two handheld transmitters, two ATW-C510 capsules, two rechargeable batteries, receiver antennas, AC adapter, rackmount hardware and microphone clamps, the Audio-Technica ATW-D50-DRX-2H 2-channel digital wireless system provides a complete professional handheld solution for dependable performance and scalable deployment.
