A10-TX Digital Wireless Transmitter
Compact Digital Transmitter with Built-in Timecode-Enabled Recorder
The A10-TX transmitter is the heart of the A10 Digital Wireless System. And the core of the A10-TX transmitter is its low-noise, high-dynamic-range analog input. It accepting signals from low-level lavalier microphones to balanced line-level. The 3-pin LEMO input offers analogue limiters, 5 volt bias for lavalier microphones, as well as 12 and 48 volt phantom power for balanced microphones.
A timecode-enabled recorder is integrated into the A10-TX. It records timecode-stamped files to removable microSD cards. After recording the proprietary .mic file requires conversion to WAV file using Mic2Wav utility software for macOS and Windows.

"When using an A10 on a boom the first thing you notice is how transparent the sound is. There is no additional noise or transmitter or compander artefacts, just pure sound....The A10 has handled comfortably anything we have thrown at it." Ronan Hill, CAS - Game of Thrones
Built-In Audio Recorder
The A10-TX transmitter includes an integrated high-quality digital recorder. Sources connected to the A10-TX can be recorded to removable FAT32 formatted microSD cards.
