Shure BLX288/SM58-S8 Dual Handheld Wireless Microphone System

Full Description

So how do I get set up?

It's simple. Plug both the mic outputs (found on the back of the receiver) into channels on your mixing desk. Just like normal wired microphones.

Press the group button on the receiver to perform a Quickscan. This searches your environment to locate the clearest frequency for each of your transmitters.

Finally, 'pair' the transmitters to the receiver. Do this by using the transmitter’s group and channel buttons. The 'ready' LED on the receiver will light up. And it's as easy as that! You can now perform with wireless freedom.

SM58 Microphone Transmitter

The sound of the iconic wired mic - made wireless. The BLX2/SM58 integrates class leading sound with elegant wireless technology. You’ll be able to faithfully perform up to 100 meters (300 feet) away from the receiver, with a generous 14 hours of continuous run time.

When you’re moving around the stage, the SM58 focuses on you. The tight cardioid polar pattern rejects the noise, greatly reducing feedback issues from nearby stage monitors. It’s tuned to help your voice cut through the mix thanks to a gentle midrange presence boost, and those distracting 'pop' noises are tamed by the steel mesh filter. There's even a built-in shock mount to eliminate handling noise.

As you'd expect from a Shure mic, it feels sturdy and well made. Despite housing impressive technology, it remains lightweight. And the safely recessed on/off switch stays out the way during performance. Everything is in place, so you can perform at your best.

Comprehensive monitoring

With a Shure BLX288 System, you get wireless freedom with total peace of mind. The receiver’s ‘ready’ LED will tell you when your system is set up and secure. You don’t need to worry about signal dropouts.

If the channel starts clipping, an LED switches from green to red, letting you know if you should activate the transmitter's -10dB gain control. There is even an LED monitor to tell you when the batteries are running low on the transmitter. Everything is clear and simple. No complicated menus, for effortless setup straight out the box.
