The Shure AD2/VP68 is a professional handheld wireless transmitter designed for the Axient Digital system, distinguished by its integration with a dynamic microphone capsule. This model is crafted to meet the needs of vocalists and speakers who prefer the classic sonic characteristics and rugged reliability of a dynamic moving-coil microphone, combined with the advanced features of a state-of-the-art digital wireless platform. It delivers a robust, feedback-resistant sound profile that has become a standard for live vocal reinforcement, offering consistency and durability in demanding performance environments across music genres and public speaking engagements.

The dynamic cartridge within this transmitter is specifically engineered to provide a pronounced presence peak in the upper midrange, which enhances vocal clarity and cut through dense mixes without requiring excessive equalization. Its design inherently offers high gain before feedback and effective handling of high sound pressure levels, making it exceptionally reliable for powerful vocal performances. The integrated digital transmitter captures this analog audio signal with high resolution and converts it into a secure, interference-resistant digital RF signal, preserving the full dynamic impact and character of the dynamic capsule while adding the benefits of digital wireless transmission.

Encased in a durable metal body with a hardened steel grille, the transmitter is built to endure the physical demands of live use. It incorporates user-friendly controls and a clear display for monitoring status and adjusting settings directly on the device. As part of the Axient Digital ecosystem, it supports advanced system management features such as remote control via ShowLink for adjustments from the front-of-house, and seamless integration with wireless network managers that provide real-time spectrum analysis and automatic frequency coordination. This combination of proven transducer technology and cutting-edge wireless intelligence makes it a powerful tool for professional audio engineers and performers.
