Today's Review Audio-Technica ATW-T1006, ATW-T1007 2.4 GHz Transmitters for System 10/System 10 PRO By Strother Bullins Last year I reviewed Audio-Technica's System 10 PRO, the company's well-received 2.4 GHz wireless system platform offering user-friendly operation via half-rack chassis with two receiver unit slots. Through an Ethernet port, each rig's receivers can also be mounted remotely, up to 300 feet away from the chassis—a considerable savings in applications where normally an antenna distributor would be employed. Five System 10 PRO chassis can be linked via RJ12 cabling for a total of 10 channels per system. This year A-T continues to build upon the System 10 and System 10 PRO platform, now offering two new 2.4 GHz transmitters which I recently reviewed: the ATW-T1006 Boundary Microphone Transmitter ($399 street) and ATW-T1007 Microphone Desk Stand Transmitter ($349 street), both of which are extremely useful tools in house-of-worship, commercial/corporate, theater and a wide range of installed audio environments. From conferencing needs to capturing a choir wirelessly, the ATW-T1006 is a great-sounding boundary microphone; the ATW-T1007, with a Neutrik XLR input atop its body, ideally allows for podium microphone use (or any mic, for that matter) with provided phantom power. Both units are untethered via System 10's license-free 2.4 GHz wireless network and Li-ion battery-provided power (with 9 approximate hours of operation time per 4.5 hour charge).

Today's Blog Recording Goes to the (Place) Mat By Clive Young McDonalds Netherlands has something new on its menu: McTrax, an interactive placemat that doubles as a recording controller. If they don't get ketchup smeared all over it first, customers can make music with the placemat, as McTrax uses conductive ink and Bluetooth to control a custom smartphone recording app. And as the inevitable promo clip shows, McTrax is both fascinating and a little cringe-inducing at the same time. More » Click The Covers — Digital Edition Quick Links Months of PAR's digital edition reviews are just a click away!
