URX-S03D UHF Dual Slot Receiver

The URX-S03D is a analong (with DSP) two-channel receiver in the UWP-D Series that fits directly in the slot of Sony XDCAM and HDCAM camcorders. Working with the UTX-B03HR belt-pack transmitter, the system features easy channel setting functions, advanced functionality for stable RF transmission, and Digital Audio Processing technology ensuring high-quality sound. It also works seamlessly with Sony 800 and UWP Series transmitters.

True diversity reception system for stable reception
Wireless microphone transmission systems are typically subject to interruptions in reception (RF signal dropout), but the UWP-D series reduces this to a minimum. Utilizing a true diversity reception system per channel, it achieves highly stable reception because of its two receiving antennas, each with RF circuits. RF signals from the two antennas are compared and the stronger signal is automatically selected for output.

Digital Audio Processing
The UWP-D Series wireless microphone systems uses Sony Digital Audio Processing to improve sound quality and transient response performance compared to conventional analog wireless systems. It provides superb transient response performance. Analog companding systems cannot accurately reproduce sounds such as a bell, tee shot or handclap, but Sony Digital Audio Processing reproduces them faithfully.

Direct digital connection to camcorders
The URX-S03D provides two-channel (with XDCAM camcorders) and single-channel (with HDCAM camcorders) digital connection via a D-sub 15-pin interface. With HDCAM camcorders, two audio signals from two transmitters can be output in the single channel as a two-channel mixing function. Sony camcorders can also show each wireless microphone’s RF/AF level in the viewfinder.

Automatic channel setting mode
The Auto Set channel mode allows the user to find and set available frequencies to use within the operating frequencies of the system. The receiver will automatically set the transmitter channel using the IR Sync feature.

Fast and easy channel scan
With its Clear Channel Scan, Active Channel Scan function and IR Sync features, the system detects unoccupied channels and selects the most appropriate channel automatically for fast and easy system setup.

Compatibility with Sony 800 and UWP Series
DSP enables a digital compander to match Sony’s analog wireless system. The WP-D Series transmitters and receivers are also compatible with Sony’s WL-800 Series and UWP Series, allowing users to switch between different companding modes.

Wide frequency coverage
The extra wide switching bandwidth covers a wide area, with a wide choice of channels available—please refer to product specifications for more information.

PLL Synthesized System
Achieves stable transmission and reception by using a UHF PLL (Phase Locked Loop) frequency synthesized system, which provides accurate carrier signal frequencies. This system is used in both the transmitters and tuners, so that a stable carrier is generated at the transmitter, and accurately tuned in at the tuner. This PLL-controlled system provides highly stable, user-selectable frequencies in increments of both 25kHz and 125 kHz.
