out Dave Taylor here and I'm checking
0:14
out this well let me pull a couple of
0:16
pieces out for you so this is a
0:21
transmitter and we'll put that aside
0:23
because this is the receiver unit for
0:27
the seven rymes iray
0:30
dw40 4channel wireless microphone system
0:34
and it's really pretty darn impressive
0:37
so there are four transmitters and
0:40
they're already pairing right now so all
0:43
I have to do is pull it out of the
0:44
charging box and I'll just clip it onto
0:47
my vest here and I'm good to go and then
0:51
this has 3.5 mm out 3.5 mm for
0:57
monitoring if you want to have
0:58
headphones or ear buds to make sure it's
1:00
working always a good idea and there's
1:03
USBC for charging but you can also use
1:07
USBC as the actual data transmission
1:10
Channel too so I decided i' experiment
1:15
with my iPhone 15 Pro which has USBC but
1:19
doesn't have 3.5 mm so before we go any
1:22
further with specs or anything let's
1:24
just go outside and I'll give you a
1:26
quick demo of how well this works when
1:29
I'm pretty darn far away using my iPhone
1:33
to record the video hey I'm way over
1:36
here I'm about 100 ft away from my
1:39
iPhone right now and I'm using the
1:41
wireless microphone CU otherwise there's
1:44
no way you'd be able to hear me and what
1:46
I really like about it is that it's
1:48
really pretty darn flexible I just
1:50
plugged the receiver into the phone
1:53
using USBC to USBC and everything knew
1:57
what to do and with the transmitter I
2:00
just simply pulled it out of the box
2:02
clipped it onto my shirt and walked out
2:04
here for this demo so as you can hear
2:07
the audio quality is excellent now let
2:10
me jump back on camera it works pretty
2:13
darn well now let me tell you a little
2:14
bit about the whole setup so it's 2.4
2:17
GHz and as I said you can use it either
2:20
with USBC or 3.5 mm it has two different
2:25
wires depending on what you're plugging
2:27
it into and remember none of the
2:30
transmitters need any wires or anything
2:32
though they do all come with their
2:34
little wind sock covers which is Handy
2:37
and they also have little magnets
2:39
they're just sort of these disc magnets
2:41
and you can use these if you want to
2:43
just have it magnetically held to an
2:45
item of clothing rather than clip on but
2:48
honestly I feel like that clip is the
2:51
way to go now let me give you a couple
2:53
of close-ups so first off here's one of
2:55
the transmitters and you can see that
2:58
there's just a couple of buttons it has
3:00
a couple of nice features including AI
3:02
noise reduction and a mute button and on
3:06
the other side there's just power on and
3:08
off super easy and then on the receiver
3:11
the receiver is even simpler because it
3:14
also has those same buttons on the side
3:16
and then on the other side you can see
3:18
there's the 3.5 mm for monitoring
3:21
there's 3.5 mm audio out and then
3:24
there's that USBC for audio out too and
3:28
you can charge it that way but of course
3:31
it comes with this great charging and
3:33
travel case which makes it really easy
3:36
close it up and you can charge this
3:38
itself you can push the button to see on
3:40
the front how much charge the case has
3:43
and on the back there's USBC so you can
3:46
charge the case and of course all the
3:48
devices in the case simultaneously so I
3:52
told you it has the wind socks it has
3:53
the magnets it has the two different 3.5
3:56
mm wires it also has a USBC to rather
4:01
ingeniously both USBC and usba depending
4:05
on what you need and then there's a
4:08
little traveling bag it's super
4:11
straightforward and some paperwork and a
4:14
user guide so really everything that you
4:17
need all you need to figure out is how
4:18
you're going to connect it to your video
4:20
recording source and you're good to go
4:23
now it is 48 khz 24-bit recording as I
4:27
said it has AI noise reduction Plus
4:29
there's a mute button and it has a very
4:32
impressive 200 M or
4:34
656 ft range the battery on each of
4:38
these units will run about 5 hours but
4:41
then you can get one and a half more
4:43
charges out of the case so you can get a
4:46
total of 12 1/2 hours of usage but let
4:49
me warn you if one of these goes down to
4:51
zero and you put it back in the case
4:54
it'll take about 2 hours to go all the
4:56
way to a full charge so it's not like
4:58
you put it in
5:00
and have a quick coffee break and you're
5:02
ready to go for another couple of hours
5:04
so that is something to factor in but 5
5:07
hours of recording that is plenty of
5:09
time all the video shoots I've ever done
5:12
we do in like 5 or 10 minute
5:14
intervals and of course it's a lavalier
5:17
mic there's four transmitters it'll work
5:19
with a camcorder with a camera with a
5:22
DSLR it'll work with your smartphones of
5:25
various varieties it'll even work with
5:27
computers if you want to use it that way
5:29
so lots to like here and in terms of the
5:33
case then it is 7 in by 6.3 in actually
5:38
that's not right it's 7 in by about 2 in
5:43
by about 3 and 1/2 in I'm not sure where
5:46
I got those Dimensions from and the
5:48
whole thing is really remarkably light
5:51
you can pile all of this into the
5:52
carrying bag throw all of this into your
5:55
camera bag or your kit and you are good
5:57
to go so really lots to like here I
6:00
think this is definitely a great
6:02
solution and even if you just use it for
6:04
a single wireless mic the fact that you
6:07
have additional transmitters that you
6:09
can use as needed is just fantastic cuz
6:13
many times I've been miking up some like
6:16
uh two people having a conversation on
6:18
stage and having one mic and having
6:20
people pass it back and forth is really
6:23
clumsy so much better to mic up multiple
6:25
people simultaneously and if you have
6:28
kids doing stunts and you're doing a fun
6:30
family video or something then obviously
6:32
having everyone with their own mic is
6:34
the way to go so lots to check out here
6:37
and it's at a very nice affordable price
6:40
but before we get there I'm going to ask

7:08
$159 currently discounted down to
7:11
$111 at amazon.com that is a killer
7:14
price and it's not going to last long so
7:16
if you're interested you really want to
7:18
jump on it but overall I got to say this
7:21
is the easiest and most convenient
7:24
microphone setup I've ever seen and the
7:27
fact that you can just do this and now
7:29
I'm just about ready to go with just
7:32
this as long as I have like the right
7:33
wire to go with me but I can go and use
7:36
