An Evolving Solution Designed for Performances
The WMS 470 is designed for applications that require more flexibility than a "plug and play" system. With a field-oriented approach (clubs, venues, medium-sized events), it combines high-level performance and advanced configuration functions to build a stable setup, even when multiple systems need to coexist.
For Guitar, Bass, and Instruments: Uncompromised Freedom of Movement
Thanks to the PT470 bodypack transmitter and the included instrument cable, this pack is ideal for guitarists and bassists who want to maintain a natural playing feel while gaining mobility. The SR470 receiver, in a half-rack 1U format, easily integrates into a rack or control room, making it a relevant choice for touring musicians, backlines, and equipped venues.
Frequencies, Battery Life, and Compatibility: A Solid Foundation for a Professional System
This L-B1 version covers Band 1 (650 to 680 MHz) and offers a wide selection of frequencies to organize a clean stage plan: the 30 MHz band provides up to 1200 frequencies and allows simultaneous use of 10 to 11 channels per band. Infrared synchronization speeds up deployment, while battery status transmission allows anticipating power changes. The WMS 470 incorporates high-end technology derived from the WMS4500 range and remains compatible with its components (antennas, power supply, splitter), convenient for upgrading a setup to more complex systems.
