The AKG WMS 400 is a great choice for any application calling for a solution that is more flexible than a simple plug-and-play system yet easy to set up and operate. The WMS 400 provides cost-efficient, high- performance solutions for situations where several radio mics will be used simultaneously, including gigs at small clubs, small stages, or regional events. Using several single-channel systems has its limitations and may simply be too much for the available radio band.

Based on the technology of and user input on the revolutionary WMS 4000 wireless system, the SR 400 provides a number of features that make setting up and operating a wireless system as easy as never before. Up to 12 channels can be used simultaneously within the same subband and even large systems will work smoothly in environments hostile to RF transmission.

The WMS 400 makes setting up a professional wireless system of this class easier than ever before. In Auto Setup mode, the receiver will scan the available bands, find an interference- free channel, and transmit the related frequency data to the assigned transmitter via infrared. This technique significantly reduces the time it takes to set up a multichannel system. A Rehearsal function identifying dead spots, a programmable display clearly indicating all important system parameters, two-color display backlighting warning the user of critical conditions from a distance, and a transmitter battery status display on the receiver enhance reliability and add to ease of use.

Many innovative features enhance both system reliability and user friendliness. The LC display indicates all important system data at a glance, including the frequency you selected from the factory presets (country, group, channel), transmitter battery capacity, a warning when battery capacity is low, as well as the current transmission mode.
