Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can you run this on USB without batteries installed?

A: Yes, the Sony UTX-P40 Wireless Plug-On Transmitter can be powered through its USB port, instead of using batteries.

Q: 2. is this compatable with URX-P40?

A: Yes, the Sony UTX-P40 Wireless Plug-On Transmitter is compatible for use with a Sony URX-P40 Camera-Mount Wireless Receiver, as long as both components operate on the same frequency band.

Q: 3. BH should carry the Saramonic SR-VRM1 plug on unit. The Pre-Amps are VERY quiet, similar to a Tascam DR-100 mark III (which I bought from BH) the SR-VRM1 is NOT a wireless unit. It's a recorder. No wireless issues to worry about. I own 6 of these. Retails for $125US

A: Thank you for this great suggestion! We will have it listed in our list of Saramonic products shortly.

Q: 4. What is the best frequency band for the US West coast?

A: There is no one specific frequency band that is best for the US West Coast. The Sony UTX-P40 Wireless Plug-On Transmitters for the UC14 and UC25 bands each have 2,772 auto-scan frequencies within the band. This means that there are 2,772 individual frequencies that the wireless microphone system scans to automatically select the clearest one to use for transmitting audio. The UC90 band has 654 auto-scan frequencies within the band. The UTX-P40 Transmitter will need to be used with a compatible Sony wireless microphone receiver that operates on the same frequency band.

Q: 5. Is the Sony URX-PO-3D compatible with the sonyUTX-M40?

A: Yes, the UTX-P40 plug-on transmitter is compatible for use with the URX-P03D dual-channel receiver. Just be sure that both items operate on the same frequency band.

Q: 6. Can it work with UWMIC9S receiver

A: No, the new Saramonic UwMic9S components are not backwards compatible with the older UwMic9 series components like the Saramonic TX-XLR9 Wireless Plug-On Transmitter.

Q: 7. Is this prone to drop outs? Is it noisy, in quiet setting is there a high noise floor? What is the range of input gain adjustment? Can that be adjusted from the Receiver, is it viewable on the receiver ?

A: The Godox TX3-XLR Plug-On Wireless Transmitter features an adjustable 20 or 50mW output power option for a specified operating range of 196.9' / 60 m (Line of Sight), making it less susceptible to drop-outs. Noise floor experienced would be largely dictated by the specifications of the microphone connected. Although not specified, input gain adjustment is likely possible on the transmitter but not the receiver.

Q: 8. Is this unit compatible with the new URX-P41D wireless receiver?

A: Yes the Sony UTX-P40 is compatible with the URX-P41D receiver in the same frequency band.

Q: 9. What is the expected battery life when using Phantom Power?

A: When using the Sony UTX-P40 Wireless Plug-On Transmitter with two standard AA size alkaline batteries and output power is set for 30 or 40mW and phantom power is on, the estimated battery life is approximately 6 hours. With phantom power turned off, the estimated battery life is approximately 8 hours when set for 30mW of output power and approximately 7 hours when output power is set for 40mW.
