There are also solutions available that use additional frequency bands for even higher capacity.
Designing a New Wireless Standard
Minimal latency
Timing is everything for the perfect live performance, which makes latency the audio industry's worst enemy. Sheerlink® provides extreme low-latency of less than 2ms, depending on the configuration.
Zero interference
With intelligent radio drivers and the option to use reserved radio bands, Sheerlink® eliminates drop-outs and creates hyper-smooth audio delivery. A resilient wireless link bridges instruments or microphones and receivers with a lightning-fast connection. This level of quality is unique in the industry.
Zero wires
The music industry is still dominated by cables due to anxiety about latency, dropouts, and overall poor audio quality. Sheerlink® provides a professional wireless audio standard with an exceptional sound experience.
Maximum freedom
Technology-enhanced connections ensure the artistic freedom of the performer while providing ease of installation for supporting sound technicians.
