Wireless Microphone Systems
Professional wireless audio for your Irish production.
Wireless microphone systems enable untethered audio capture, giving talent freedom of movement while maintaining broadcast-quality sound. Modern digital wireless systems offer reliable transmission, wide frequency range, and encryption to avoid interference in complex RF environments common on busy sets.
We source and coordinate wireless microphone systems with the frequency bands and channel counts your production requires. Our team handles spectrum coordination and ensures backup units are available, so your sound department can operate confidently across multiple shooting locations.

On Location
Wisycom MCR54, Lectrosonics SRc and DCHT, Shure Axient Digital, and Sennheiser Digital 6000 wireless mic packages with DPA and Sanken lavs prepped through Audio Plus Dublin, Sound Ireland, TVM, and Pyramid
Here is how this works in practice. Wireless microphone inventory in Ireland routes through Audio Plus Dublin (the deepest Wisycom MCR54, MTP41, and MTP60 stock plus Lectrosonics SRc, DCHT, and DSQD inventory across Banshees of Inisherin, Foundation Apple TV+, and Vikings Ashford). Sound Ireland (Shure Axient Digital ADX1. ADX2, and AD4Q paired by talent on Normal People HBO and The Quiet Girl Oscar-nominated 2022). TVM Audio Division (Sennheiser Digital 6000 series transmitters and EM 6000 four-channel receivers cross-rented to commercial), and Pyramid Audio (Lectrosonics Digital Hybrid and Sennheiser EW-DX inventory).
Here is the short of it. We supply DPA 4060 and 6060 subminiature lavalieres, Sanken COS-11D, Countryman B6 and B3. Sennheiser MKE 2 Gold. Plus full Ursa Strap and Bubblebee Concealer mounting kits. This includes every lavalier ships pre-tested with backup units and spare batteries calibrated for the production sound mixer's preferred workflow.
Here is the breakdown. ComReg range coordination governs UHF 470-694MHz wireless mic operation in Ireland. Licensed allocation logged before principal photography is mandatory. With cross-border Ofcom UK coordination auto across the Common Travel Area for Northern Ireland Titanic Studios shoots and Wild Atlantic Way border-adjacent work. We run pre-production RF scans across the The route, Cliffs of Moher. Aran Islands. Skellig Michael UNESCO, and Donegal Slieve League to lock channels and prevent crowding on multi-camera dialogue-heavy builds (Banshees-style 8-12 lavalier configurations).
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Atlantic maritime climate weatherproofing ships sealed transmitter packs, Ursa weatherproof straps, sweat-resistant lav mounts, and silica desiccant kits for the wet Atlantic frontal weather October through March. When extra Shure AD4Q or Wisycom MCR54 receivers aren't held in Dublin we cross-border to ARRI Rental London or Pinewood London under the CTA frictionless border (no carnet for UK gear). Revenue Commissioners ATA carnet routes Schengen and non-UK stock through DUB, ORK, SNN, or BFS.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What wireless systems do you recommend?
For professional narrative work, we recommend Lectrosonics Digital or Wisycom for their audio quality, reliability, and spectral efficiency. Zaxcom offers recording-capable transmitters. For budget-conscious productions, Sennheiser EW-D provides excellent value.
How many wireless channels can you provide?
We can provide as many channels as your production requires—from single transmitters to dozens of coordinated channels for large cast productions. Our frequency coordination ensures all channels operate without interference.
What lavalier microphones do you stock?
We carry DPA 4060 and 6060 (subminiature), Sanken COS-11D, Sennheiser MKE series, and Countryman lavalieres. Each has different characteristics suited to various concealment and sound requirements.
How do you handle frequency coordination?
We scan your locations to identify clean frequencies and coordinate all wireless systems to avoid interference. This includes both your wireless mics and any other RF equipment like wireless video or IEMs.
What about range and coverage?
Range depends on the system and environment. We configure antenna distribution and RF cables to ensure reliable coverage for your shooting area. For large locations, we can provide multiple receiver setups.
Do you provide backup equipment?
Yes, we recommend and can provide backup transmitters and receivers for longer shoots. Having backup wireless protects your production against equipment failures.
