Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Can the QLXD1 G50 beltpack be programmed to the L50 frequencies, or the receiver programmed to the G50 frequencies?
A: They cannot they are two different models and they have different connectors. The QLXD1 is a TA4 and the L50 is a 3 pin lemo.
Q: 2. Why is it not compatible with the BLX?
A: BLX wireless series features a fully integrated capsule in its handheld transmitters. This means that the microphone capsule is hardwired into the transmitter handle which does not allow it to be removed to change capsule types. BLX and GLX-D are the only Shure wireless series with handheld transmitters like this. All other current series allow you to switch out the capsule and are compatible with this product.
Q: 3. Does the Shure ULXD1 Transmitter come with a mic or is that sold separately?
A: Microphones are not included but are available as optional purchases.
Q: 4. Is TA4M different from TA4F?
A: Yes. Both are 4-pin mini XLR connectors. TA4M is a male and TA4F is female. The connector on the Shure transmitter is male, so the cable with the microphone will have a female connector.
Q: 5. Will this transmitter work with the ULXP4 receiver?
A: No it is not. The Shure ULXD1 is a digital wireless bodypack transmitter compatible with ULX-D and QLX-D receivers only.
Q: 6. What is Lemo3 and do I need it for a gutair to connect to the Ulxd... thx
A: The Shure ULXD1 Digital Wireless Bodypack Transmitter with LEMO3 has a LEMO 3-pin input connector. The same transmitter is also available with a TA4 connector. These are two different types of audio connections which you would use to connect audio sources to the transmitter.
Q: 7. Does this bodypack come with the mic capsule or just the bodypack? Also, does BH sell a replacement mic capsule for this bodypack? We have a broken capsule that we will need to replace.
