Sony UWP-D Series: Beautiful Pictures deserve sound to match

As high-resolution content becomes the norm, video producers need to match beautiful pictures with sparkling sound to create an immersive experience for audiences. UWP-D Series lets you capture pristine audio—quickly, reliably, and with no fuss.

Perfect partnership with Mi Shoe Transmission

Capturing crisp, sparkling wireless audio has never been easier. UWP-D Series receivers mount directly on Sony camcorders using the SMAD-P5 MI shoe that carries power as well as audio signals, with automatic power synchronization between camera and receiver.

Superb audio with stable RF reception

Enjoy superlative audio quality with all-digital signal processing. Stable, reliable RF reception is assured by the receiver’s dual diversity tuner that always stays locked onto the strongest wireless signal. So you can be confident of clear, uninterrupted audio reception with no signal drop-outs.

Effortless one-touch channel scan

Setting up UWP-D Series is fast, super-simple, and secure. Just touch a button and the UWP-D Series receiver automatically scans for clear wireless channels. Then use one-touch NFC sync to securely pair receiver and transmitter—and you’re all ready to start capturing crisp, clear audio.

Ergonomic design

The reduced size and weight of the UWP-D series makes all the difference in applications where mobility matters. The UTX-B40 bodypack transmitter and UTX-P40 plug-on transmitter are around 20% smaller than their predecessors. The length of the URX-P40 receiver with the SMAD-P5 MI shoe adaptor has been drastically shortened for an easy fit with compact camcorders and interchangeable-lens cameras.

Multi interface for direct connection

UWP-D Series receivers attach to compatible* camcorders and interchangeable-lens cameras via the SMAD-P5 MI (Multi Interface) shoe adaptor. Audio signals are sent directly from the receiver to the camera with no need for connecting wires. The receiver draws power directly from the camera that also controls turning the receiver ON/OFF for simplified power management.

Using the SMAD-P5 supports the digital audio interface of the URX-P40, delivering high sound quality with low noise by direct digital audio recording. It also achieves advanced integration with camcorders, showing audio information in the viewfinder for enhanced usability in the field.

*Please note the SMAD-P5 can only be used with URX-P40. SMAD-P3 can only be used with URX-P03 and SMAD-P3D can only be used with URX-P03D

External microphone input and 3-channel mixer

The URX-P41D 2-channel portable receiver features an external input for connection of an additional wired microphone. Ideal for on-camera interviews, the receiver’s integrated 3-channel audio mixer can assign output 1 and/or 2 freely when using two wireless microphones plus a wired mic.

Features
True Diversity Reception

UWP-D features a true diversity system, using two antennas for highly stable reception. RF signals from both antennas are compared and the stronger signal automatically selected.

Auto Gain Mode Volume Control

Ideal when you don’t know the level of the speaker’s voice, auto gain mode boosts volume while using a limiter to reduce the risk of distortion.
