Frequently asked questions
Are these products compatible with each other?
No. The Floorpad is an antenna for wireless receiver systems operating at 470–740 MHz UHF. The PCC130 SW is a wired condenser microphone for direct audio capture. They serve entirely different functions in a signal chain.
Which is better for a live performance?
It depends on your setup. If you use wireless microphones or in-ear monitors, the Floorpad improves receiver coverage. If you need to mic a drum kit, piano, or acoustic instrument directly, the PCC130 SW's cardioid pattern and 120 dB SPL capability are designed for that application.
What are the key technical differences?
The Floorpad operates at 470–740 MHz with passive −1 dB gain and approximately 12-meter coverage for wireless systems. The PCC130 SW is an active condenser microphone with 50–20,000 Hz frequency response, 72 dB-A SNR, and a cardioid pickup pattern for direct sound capture.
Which requires power or external equipment?
The Floorpad is purely passive and requires only a coaxial connection to a wireless receiver. The PCC130 SW is an active condenser microphone that requires phantom power (typically 48V) and connects via XLR cable.
