AKG WMS470 C5 VOCAL SET BD7 - Professional Wireless Microphone System
The WMS470 C5 brings reliable wireless capture and transparent sonic character to studio sessions, live recording, and broadcast tracking. The handheld transmitter sits naturally in the palm, with the C5 condenser capsule delivering responsive proximity and minimal handling noise—critical for isolated vocal takes and capturing the nuance of performance without RF artifacts. This is a genuine workhorse system built for studios, remote recording, and production environments where dependable RF performance and audio fidelity are non-negotiable.
Wireless Performance & RF Stability
Operating in the 500.1–530.5 MHz UHF band, the system supports up to 16 simultaneous channels within the same frequency range—essential for multi-vocalist sessions and larger ensemble recording. The 50 mW transmission power and space diversity receiver architecture ensure solid RF penetration and dropout-free operation across studio spaces and location recording environments, while FM modulation delivers clean, interference-resistant audio capture.
Audio Characteristics & Mixing Integration
The C5 capsule captures clean vocal detail with 35–20,000 Hz audio bandwidth and exceptional clarity, backed by a 120 dB-A signal-to-noise ratio that keeps background hum and RF artifacts inaudible in your mix. Dual output options—microphone level and line level from the half-rack receiver—integrate seamlessly into mixing consoles and audio interfaces without additional preamps or adapters, streamlining session setup and tracking workflow.
