The PIPEline from E-MU is a high-quality wireless transceiver that can be used as an audio transmitter or receiver for a variety of applications. The PIPEline has an extended wireless range of up to 49' to give you plenty of freedom. It also transmits audio at samples rates of 48kHz, which is higher than CD-quality sound.

The PIPEline offers 2 primary operating modes, Pairing and Broadcast. In Pairing Mode, up to 3 independent transmitter/receiver pairs can be used, ideal for instruments or in-ear monitoring. The Broadcast Mode allows you to send a signal from one transmitter to multiple receivers, perfect for group in-ear monitoring or classroom use. Ideal for live music applications, the PIPEline offers an incredibly low latency of 5.5ms in dedicated Pairing Mode, and 10ms in Broadcast Mode, perfect for hearing things as they happen.

Rather than a plethora of connectors, the PIPEline provides a pair of unique Flexi-Jacks, which can be configured as either inputs or outputs, which send or receive analog or digital signals for terrific versatility. For additional flexibility, the PIPEline operates on a rechargeable battery that lasts for up to 10 hours. A power adapter/charger and audio cables are included.

Comments about E-MU PIPEline Wireless Audio Transmitter/Receiver System:

I'm using this to monitor a wireless mic/recorder system that I built. This system allows me to be a one-man-band with double-system sound.

Because the recorder is a stand-alone setup, I'm not connected to it at all and can't monitor what it's recording or even know if it's still running. Connecting a cable is out of the question.

The E-Mu Pipeline sends me the audio the system is capturing. Because it operates on 2.4 gHz it doesn't interfere at all with the ATW-1800 wireless mic receivers that are in the 600 mHz band.

Audio quality is very, very good. The units are compact and easy to use.

The only problem is battery life. The receiver can run for about 10 hours, as suggested by the technical info. However, as a transmitter, the E-Mu Pipeline can run for about 5 hours. Anything longer and you'll need an external power supply. In my situation, I need a run time of at least 10 hours which means creating some sort of 5-volt battery system.

Be aware that if you do buy an E-Mu Pipeline, you will need TWO of these. Although it's pitched and sold as a "system", the box only has one unit. You'll need two. One designated as a transmitter. Another as a receiver.
