Lectrosonics SMQv

Need someone to run it? Our crew runs it on stage and on set. See live audio or location sound.

Lectrosonics SMQv hire in Melbourne. A tiny, tough Digital Hybrid bodypack transmitter that runs all day on two AAs, for location sound where the radio link has to hold.

Lectrosonics transmitter hire for long days and big casts starts with the SMQv. It uses Lectrosonics Digital Hybrid Wireless for clean, natural audio, in a small body that slips onto talent and survives a hard day on set. Transmit power switches between 50, 100 and 250mW, so you can stretch the range on a big location or save batteries on a sit down. It runs up to 14.5 hours on two lithium AAs and it takes NiMH or alkaline too. It works with every Lectrosonics Digital Hybrid receiver and with older Lectrosonics analogue receivers.

It's the transmitter in our Premium Location Sound Recording Kit A, and the one we run on reality, documentary and drama in Melbourne's crowded spectrum. Pick the frequency block that matches your receiver when you book.

Good for: location sound, reality, documentary, drama, broadcast, long shooting days and bigger casts that need more radio channels.

Good to know: Transmitter only. The lav and receiver are separate unless they are part of your package, so add a Sanken COS11 D when you book. Choose Block 22 or Block 26 to match your receiver.
