The Blink 500 ProX TXR from Saramonic is a miniature clip-on microphone/transmitter with onboard recording function available as an individual component to expand your existing wireless setup or for use as a backup transmitter. When used with a Blink 500 ProX RX, RXDi, or RXUC receiver (all available separately), the system offers an ultracompact solution that lets you record one or two wireless mics to cameras and smartphones (depending on the receiver used).
The tiny transmitter weighs just over 1 oz and features a built-in clip and an omnidirectional microphone, making it simple to attach to a lapel or shirt for quick and easy true-wireless audio. For a more discreet look, you can plug the included SR-M1 lavalier microphone into the 3.5mm input jack and use the Blink 500 ProX TXR as a beltpack transmitter. The system uses digital technology in the 2.4 GHz bandwidth to ensure reliable wireless transmission with a maximum line-of-sight range of 328'.
Onboard Recording and Controls
- The TXR features 8GB of internal memory capable of storing up to 14.8 hours of 16- or 24-bit audio at 48 kHz in lossless .WAV formats. An inset tactile switch can toggle recording on and off and ensures accidental jostling will not affect the transmitter.
- Input level control, mute, and selectable mic- or line-level inputs allow you to customize your audio experience even further.
Long Battery Life
The transmitter is powered by an internal, 400mAh, rechargeable lithium-ion battery that can run for up to 11 hours when not in recording mode. When onboard recording is toggled, the battery life is reduced to 8.5 hours. Recharge the battery via USB-C port, which can also power the unit if connected to AC power. A charging cable is included with the transmitter.
