12 Month Warranty*Ideal for content creators, videographers, journalists, vloggers, podcasters, and streamers, the Saramonic Blink500 Pro B8 is a lightweight, ultracompact, and easy-to-use digital wireless microphone system that offers a complete, cost-effective solution for recording up to four people talking simultaneously. The kit comprises four Blink500 Pro TXS clip-on transmitters with built-in microphones and one Blink500 Pro 4RX clip-on receiver. The microphones deliver clear-sounding dialog, interviews, and speech directly to a mirrorless/DSLR camera, computer, recorder, or smartphone/tablet equipped with a headphone jack.
The Blink500 Pro B8 provides out-of-the-box operability for content creators. The components are paired at the factory, so you can start working immediately. The easy-to-read OLED screen on the receiver makes any necessary adjustments quick and intuitive. The system automatically hops to free channels to avoid static noise and dropouts, delivering reliable wireless audio at a distance up to 164'. Built-in rechargeable batteries provide up to 4 hours of operation for the transmitters and 8 hours for the receiver. Provided are a 3.5mm TRRS cable for connecting to a smartphone/tablet and a 3.5mm TRS cable for use with cameras and other 3.5mm-input devices. 4-channel audio output is supported with an optional cable (available separately).
Four Blink500 Pro TXS Clip-On Transmitters
- Each transmitter has a built-in microphone with an omnidirectional pickup pattern that captures speech evenly.
- The transmitters are small and light enough to clip to shirts and clothing, and feature gain and mute controls, allowing you to fully manage your recording at any time.
- A furry windscreen is included to protect the built-in mic from wind noise when shooting outdoors.
Four Microphones into One Blink500 Pro TXS Clip-On Receiver
- The clip-on receiver features a belt clip, which also doubles as a shoe mount adapter for your camera.
- In the absence of a smartphone holder, the receiver can also be clamped to your smartphone using the belt clip.
- It features a vivid OLED display with real-time metering
- The output mode can be set to either mono or stereo. When in mono mode, the audio from a transmitter or all transmitters is mixed to both the left and right sides. When in stereo mode, two transmitters mixed separately to the left side and two to the right side.
- The receiver has a 3.5mm headphone output for real-time monitoring, and two 3.5mm audio output jacks that can output up to four separate signals at the same time.
