The Saramonic UwMic9 Camera-Mount Wireless Cardioid Handheld Microphone System provides vloggers, mobile journalists, and content creators with a quality-sounding, easy-to use, flexible UHF system that packs a set of sophisticated features into a cost-effective solution.

Built for the rough-and-tumble world of production, the lightweight, all-metal components include a handheld transmitter microphone along with a two-channel receiver that's ready to plug into your DSLR/mirrorless camera, recorder, or smartphone (with a cable available separately).

The receiver's two-channel capability allows you to expand your system in the future with an additional transmitter and microphone (available separately) for 2-person interviews—with no additional receiver necessary.

Simple to operate with minimal setup, the UwMic9 lets you capture clear and natural speech for projects ranging from YouTube vlogs and wedding videos to corporate spots and interviews.

• The microphone's directional cardioid polar pattern helps to reject unwanted background sound, making it ideal in loud environments such as trade-show floors, busy public areas, or sporting events.
• The combo mute/power button on the mic can be locked with a switch hidden inside the body to prevent the talent from accidentally muting, changing the channel, or powering it down.
• A protective ring around the perimeter of the grille prevents the HU9 from rolling when resting on flat surfaces.
• The UWMIC9's Auto Scan feature searches among 96 frequencies to find the cleanest available frequency for you, while the built-in infrared sync makes linking the transmitter and receiver a snap.
• Easy-to-understand menus and controls, along with backlit LCD displays, allow you to make quick adjustments under varying lighting conditions.
• The transmitter offers two selectable levels of wireless transmission power. The high setting is designed to overcome interference in busy RF environments or when the subject is further from the receiver; the low setting conserves battery power.
• A headphone output on the receiver enables real-time audio monitoring, especially useful if your camera lacks a headphone output.
• Power is supplied via AA batteries for up to 6 hours of battery life.
• The system offers a maximum distance of up to 330' and supports up to 8 mics at once on set.

• For hands-free interviews and speech, you can add the TX9 bodypack transmitter with an omnidirectional lavalier mic.
• Adding the TX-XLR9 plug-on transmitter allows you to connect any handheld microphone of your choice or a shotgun mic for wireless booming. You can even apply 48V phantom for condenser mics.
• A wide selection of optional output cables (available separately) allows you to connect the receiver to smartphones and tablets via Lightning or USB Type-C ports, or the TRRS headphone output. There is also a mini-USB cable for action cameras and a USB Type-A cable for computers.

Q: 5. can you lock out the mute function on the transmitters?

A: Yes, you can lock the transmitter so the device can not be turned off or muted.

Q: 6. How does this system compare to the Sennheiser G4 system or the Sony UWP-D?

A: The Saramonic UwMic9 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System is most similar to the Sony UWP-D system. There is not currently a dual-channel version of the Sennheiser EW 100 G4 available. The UwMic9 transmitters feature a similar output spec of 10/20/30mW to the Sony UTX-B40's 5/30mW and Sennheiser's 30mW output. The UwMic9 features less potential frequency options, topping out at 96 frequencies, where Sony offers up to 2,772 and Sennheiser offers 1,680. All makes do feature the ability to scan for an open channel based on location. Saramonic's RX9 receiver features a single TRS output for both micropone channels, where Sony's URX-P03D offers an individual output for each. Overall, however, the Saramonic UwMic9 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System provides significant value at its price point.

Q: 7. anyone had any radio interference static, hisses or clicks picked up from the transmission especially when walking about in differenet environments of is the audio always generally 'clean' and free of intereference? Thank you

A: Have you changed the channels? Do a frequency scan when this happens and it will find the cleanest available channel. Then sync the transmitters to the receiver. You will need to do this for both A & B frequencies on your receiver. This should fix your problem.

Q: 8. Does anyone know what the transmitter mic wiring is? I tried using an ECM77 from my Sony wireless pack and it didn't work - so I'm assuming it's not the same. Has anyone tried a mic wired for Sennheiser? It's a great product but the included mics are huge! I ailed Saramonic but they said I'd have to try it myself to see if it would work.

A: The Rode Lav with the Micon connection works great with these for anyone looking. Price is good and they sound fantastic.

Q: 9. Does the receiver needs to be plugged in with both XLR to the camera or you can simply use one if you are using only one transmitter ? I'm shooting with an FS7 and I would love to be able to leave my shotgun mic plugged in when only interviewing 1 person.

A: You will need to plug the 2 XLR connectors to the camera.

Q: 10. How long is mic to transmitter cable?

A: This lavalier microphone that connects to the transmitter is 4ft long.
