Adding additional mic Sennheiser G2
I have a Sennheiser G2 Wireless system (with one mic) hooked to my Canon HV20... works perfect, no problems.
Question... I really want to add a mic for guests on my show. Can I simply add another wireless unit w/ mic and the receiver will just recognize it? I realize if this does work, all audio will be on the same channel, but I don't think I care... or do I? (again, assuming that what I suggested above even works). Thanks, Scott |
You can only use one transmitter at a time on the same channel. You can get another receiver and transmitter and use it on a separate channel.

I figured as much...
Is there another system that will allow multiple mics on one receiver...? I'm just trying to figure out what the cleanest, most cost effective solution would be for multiple mics. |

So, just another G2 wireless system is about it... now I have an issue of mounting the two receivers on the camera...

Dear Scott,
There are systems that put two separate radio receivers in one case so that you can use two separate transmitters. |
Such as the Audio Technica 1800 series of wireless - 2 receivers in one case, belt-pack transmitters & plug-on transmitters available.
Seems to me there was a guy selling a couple sets in the DVInfo classifieds a couple days ago... |

You could also just stick velcro on the back and velcro on your tripod.

I ended up spending another 500.00 on an additional Sennheiser (sigh) Wireless system... as well as this:
Cool-Lux | MD-3000 Light and Sound Bracket | MD3000 | B&H Photo Thanks for the help. It stinks when my audio equipment is more expensive than the camera :P |
