Overview:
The Shure ULXD2/SM58 is a digital handheld wireless microphone transmitter compatible with ULX-D receivers. It comes equipped with the legendary SM58 dynamic capsule, an industry standard for vocal performers and presenters. The capsule features a cardioid polar pattern that minimizes background noise and feedback, and its brightened midrange and bass roll off gives you that sought-after warm and clear vocal reproduction.
With rugged, yet lightweight aluminum housing, the ULXD2/SM58 transmitter delivers pristine audio quality and RF performance, AES 256-bit encryption for secure transmission, and advanced rechargeability options for professional sound-reinforcement applications.
Clear, Accurate Audio with Interchangeable Capsule
The unit delivers clear, reliable 24-bit/48 kHz digital audio over its entire 330' range, great for live performances and presentations in music venues, houses of worship, and conference spaces.
The interchangeable capsule design allows you to replace the SM58 capsule with a Shure capsule that’s ideal for your application and simply screw it onto the transmitter—including SM86, SM87A, Beta 58A, Beta 87A, Beta 87C, KSM9 capsules, and more.
User-Friendly Features in a Rugged Housing
The transmitter offers an ultrawide 138 MHz tuning range from 470 to 608 MHz, allowing you to use it across a wide geographical range with a compatible ULX-D receiver.
The unit quickly syncs with a wireless receiver via infrared at the touch of a button.
Shure Proprietary Gain Ranging automatically adjusts the mic input level, eliminating the need for transmitter gain adjustments.
The power button conveniently doubles as mute switch, while preserving RF lock.
Frequency and power lockout functions prevent accidental or unauthorized changes during events.
A backlit LCD with easy-to-navigate menu and controls lets you quickly access frequency, group, and channel settings, along with mute and lock status, RF output, and remaining battery life.
1/10/20mW selectable RF output power allows you to increase either the transmitter's range or the number of mics operating simultaneously.
Convenient Power Management Options
Operates for up to 11 hours on two AA batteries.
Optional Shure SB900B lithium-ion rechargeable battery pack offers intelligent power management with over 8 hours of battery life, precision metering in hours and minutes, and zero memory effect.
External charging contacts allow for docked battery charging with the SBC200 dual-docking charger (available separately).
The networkable SBC220 charger (available separately) allows for remote power monitoring via Shure’s Wireless Workbench software.
