The Samson UM / 77 combination system consists of the UM1 micro diversity camera mountable receiver and CT7 UHF bodypack transmitter. The system combines the dependability of diversity technology in the UM1 receiver with the stabilized transmission of the CT7 Concert Series transmitter. This system is designed for headworn application and features the QV headworn microphone.
The Samson UM1 diversity, portable receiver is lightweight and completely camera mountable using the included touch fastener straps. The receiver features a locking balanced mini XLR output. A mini XLR to standard XLR cable is included for complete, balanced connection resulting in a low noise floor. An unbalanced mini jack output allows unbalanced connection to camcorders or as a separate monitor output for headphones etc. The UM1's micro diversity, dual-antenna design further minimizes drop-outs and RF interference. The receiver operates on a standard 9 Volt and features a battery life indicator LED.
The Samson CT7 beltpack transmitter is a rugged, lightweight unit that can accommodate lavaliers, headworn microphones, and instrument cables.
