Evolution Wireless Digital: the natural evolution of the Evolution range
With Evolution Wireless Digital, Sennheiser modernizes the "plug and play" spirit that made the Evolution systems successful: quick handling, consistent live performance, and a modular solution capable of adapting to simple setups as well as more ambitious stages. The goal is clear: to offer a robust and accessible digital wireless system inspired by technologies long reserved for very high-end professional systems.
For singers, speakers, actors, content creators, and technicians
The EW-D ME4 Set is designed to capture a precise voice while limiting off-axis sounds. The cardioid lavalier microphone is particularly relevant for presentations, performances, places of worship, video recordings, and events where intelligibility is prioritized without increasing ambient noise levels. The mono-channel receiver facilitates integration in control rooms, racks, or fixed installations.
A digital wireless system designed for reliability and quick setup
Digital transmission helps eliminate typical analog wireless interference while preserving the nuances of a dynamic performance. The EW-D series emphasizes a high dynamic range (up to 134 dB on the transmitter side) to handle both spoken and projected voices, providing a natural and comfortable mixing experience.
Startup is accelerated by an automated configuration : the system quickly establishes a reliable connection and simplifies frequency management. The Smart Assist app (Bluetooth Low Energy) allows parameter control without navigating complex menus, convenient during soundchecks, rehearsals, or stage changes. Finally, the ecosystem is designed for scalability: wide frequency selection, the ability to multiply systems within the same band, and a bandwidth specified to accommodate dense configurations.
