Synco Wair-g2-a2 Ultracompact 2-person Digital Wireless Lavalier Microphone System For Cameras & Mobile Devices (2.4 Ghz)
- Product Code: ga82786
-
The Synco WAir-G2-A2 is an ultracompact, digital wireless microphone system with two microphones and just one receiver—great for shooting two-person videos for Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. It offers a complete, versatile, and simple-to-use solution for recording dialogue, interviews, and speech directly to a mirrorless/DSLR camera or a mobile device with a 3.5mm input.
The WAir-G2-A2 provides two tiny, lightweight clip-on transmitters, each with its own built-in microphone, along with two separate lavalier mics that can be used if you prefer a more discreet mic setup—simply plug the lavs into the 3.5mm inputs on the transmitters. Mute buttons allow the talent to mute the transmitters quickly and easily.
The system also includes a single tiny two-channel receiver that mounts on your camera or mobile device and plugs into its 3.5mm input jack. Built-in DSP processing helps eliminate noise and keeps latency down to 12.5ms for improved audio/video sync. Color TFT displays on the transmitters and receiver show important information including battery power, mute status, low-cut filter status, and more.
The system delivers reliable transmission with clear sound at a line-of-sight distance up to 492' (164' with limited obstacles). The built-in rechargeable batteries provide up to 8 hours of operation and recharge in 1.5 hours via USB Type-C ports, and a three-in-one charging cable is provided. A 3.5mm TRS cable for camera use and a 3.5mm TRRS cable for smartphone use are also included.

- The two-channel receiver allows you to save space on your shooting rig by using a single receiver to simultaneously receive signals from the two mic/transmitters.
- The receiver features a belt clip, which also doubles as a shoemount adapter for your camera.
- Each of the compact transmitters is equipped with both a built-in microphone and a 3.5mm input that accepts its included lavalier microphone.
- The transmitter can be clipped on clothing without having to wire yourself or your talent, providing a fast, truly wireless setup. You can also hold the transmitter in your hand and use it as a handheld microphone.
- A low-cut filter on the transmitter can be engaged to reduce air-conditioning and wind noise.
- Simply press the pairing buttons and the system components pair automatically.
- The gain for each microphone can be adjusted independently.
- The receiver and the transmitters have TFT displays that indicate power, battery life, mute, and gain status.
- You have the option to switch between mono or stereo on the receiver: Recording in mono combines both microphones on both the left and right side of your audio track. Recording in stereo puts one person on the left and the other person on the right, allowing you to isolate each person's dialog and adjust each level individually later in post.
- The transmitters and the receiver are powered for up to 8 hours via a built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery.
- The battery recharges in 1.5 hours; a 3-in1 charging cable is included.
- If your camera doesn't have a headphone jack, you can monitor your sound via the receiver's 3.5mm headphone output while recording to ensure that you are capturing a clean signal.
- To avoid interference from TV and radio waves, the WAir digital system operates in the 2.4 GHz frequency band—far away from television, radio, and UHF wireless microphone transmissions.
- The system automatically changes transmission frequency to mitigate noise and dropouts at a line-of-sight distance of up to 492 feet or up to 164 feet when some obstacles are present.
- For optimal performance, environments with limited Wi-Fi/2.4 GHz traffic and minimal physical obstructions are recommended.
Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. How do you adjust the gain on the TRANSMITTER? not the receiver. I'm getting clipping in most of my interviews at the transmiter
A: The Synco WAIR-G2-A2 transmitters do not have gain controls.
Q: 2. Can a use other higher quality lavalier mic's with this?
A: Although not specified, the Synco WAir-G2-A2 Ultracompact 2-Person Digital Wireless Microphone System for Mirrorless/DSLR Cameras should presumably be compatible for use with third party lavalier microphones featuring a non-locking 3.5mm connection.
Q: 3. With the right connector does this work well with newer iPhones?
A: Yes, the Synco WAir-G1-A2 wireless microphone system is compatible for use with newer iPhones. Use the included 3.5mm TRS to 3.5mm TRRS receiver output cable with an Apple Lightning to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter (B&H # APLAADAP) attached to the TRRS end and it will work well to record audio with your iPhone.
Q: 4. If I buy 2 sets, will I be able to use them across 4 channels or just A & B?
A: Synco recommends that only WAir-G2-A2 PRO transmitters be used in one place at the same time. It is possible that two sets could be used together, although results will vary based on location, conditions, and interference. In any case, when two dual-channel wireless systems are used together they remain two separate systems, with each receiver receiving audio from only the two transmitters with which it is paired.
Q: 5. Does it need some sort of phantom power can I plug it into a mixer or sound system without it?
A: The Synco WAir-G2-A1 Ultracompact Digital Wireless Microphone System for Mirrorless/DSLR Cameras (2.4 GHz) operates on its own battery power. Phantom power or plug-in power from the mic input is not required. The rechargeable battery is built in, and a charging cable is included in the box.
Q: 6. Does the receiver come with a cold shoe mount for attaching to a dslr?
A: The Synco WAir-G2-A2 PRO 2-Person Wireless Microphone System's clips can slot into a cold shoe for on-camera mounting.
Q: 7. How can I plug this into my XLR on my camera input ?
A: You can connect the Synco WAir-G2-A2 Ultracompact 2-Person Digital Wireless Microphone System to an XLR input on your camera by using an adapter like the Kopul A-XMMF 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter (B&H # KOAXMMF) with the 3.5mm TRS to TRS receiver output cable that comes included with the wireless mic system.
Q: 8. Can I feed this into an XLR in on a camera with an adapter?
A: Yes, you can use the 3.5mm TRS to TRS receiver output cable along with an XLR adapter such as the Kopul A-XMMF 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter (B&H# KOAXMMF) or Rode VXLR 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter (B&H# ROVXLR).
Q: 9. Can I plug in third party lav mics?
A: Yes, you can use third party lavalier mics that have a standard 3.5mm TRS connector and operate using plug-in power or a battery.
Q: 10. What ac power is recommended for charge?
A: You can use any USB wall charger with the Synco WAir-G2-A2 Ultracompact 2-Person Digital Wireless Lavalier Microphone System, like you would use to charge a smartphone. For example, the ChargeWorx Dual USB Type-A Wall Charger (B&H # CHACX2603BK), the GyroVu 5V 3.1A USB Type-A AC Adapter (B&H # GYGVUSBPS3), or the Belkin Boost Charge 24W Dual USB Type-A Wall Charger (B&H # BEWCB2DQWH) will all work for charging the Synco WAir-G2-A2 system.
