Join USITT Rocky Mountain for the Shure Wireless Fundamentals and Best Practices workshop, offering a comprehensive overview of wireless audio system design, management, and deployment. This session will be offered twice, once from 10am-12pm MDT and once from 2-4pm MDT; the same content will be offered in both, so you need only attend one. The session begins with a discussion on the importance of wireless audio, highlighting its role in modern live sound, broadcast, and installed applications where mobility, flexibility, and aesthetics are key.
Participants are introduced to essential RF fundamentals, gaining a solid understanding of how radio frequency behaves in different environments. A spectrum update outlines current trends and regulatory changes affecting available bandwidth for wireless microphone systems.
The training covers both analog and digital RF transmission methods, including their respective strengths, limitations, and impact on sound quality and reliability. Topics like audio processing are addressed, focusing on how signals are prepared for transmission, compressed, and reconstructed.
A core component of the training is frequency coordination—the process of identifying clean, intermodulation-free frequencies for multi-channel wireless setups. The session explores best practices for antenna types and placement, emphasizing how cabling and antenna distribution affect system performance, particularly in large-scale deployments.
By the end of the course, participants gain practical knowledge on designing and managing wireless systems using Shure Wireless Workbench software, ensuring stable, interference-free operation in increasingly crowded RF environments.
Register through the USITT website - membership not required, but an account is. Please note that the times are 10am and 2p MOUNTAIN though the USITT website will likely render it off by two hours as defaults to Eastern time zone. Oh, and not mentioned currently in the USITT blurb - there will be a door prize!
