The Shure ADX2FD/VP68 is a high-end handheld wireless microphone transmitter that pairs the exceptional redundancy of the Axient Digital platform's dual-channel transmission with a professional-grade dynamic microphone capsule. This system is engineered for the most critical live sound and broadcast applications where absolute signal reliability and rugged vocal performance are paramount. The included dynamic capsule, known for its durability and consistent sound, delivers a tailored frequency response designed to provide excellent gain before feedback and a pronounced presence peak to help vocals cut through a dense mix. This makes it a preferred choice for lead vocalists across various musical genres and for energetic presenters.

The defining technological feature of this transmitter is its dual-channel (FD) operation. It simultaneously transmits the audio on two independent radio frequencies to a compatible dual-channel receiver. This creates an invisible safety net; if interference or a dropout occurs on the primary frequency, the system can instantaneously and seamlessly switch to the backup transmission with no audible glitch. This level of redundancy is crucial for live broadcasts, major concert tours, and high-stakes events where a wireless failure is not an option. The transmitter integrates fully into the Axient Digital ecosystem, supporting remote control and monitoring via ShowLink for adjustments from the mixing position.

Constructed with a robust metal body and a hardened steel grille, the transmitter is built to withstand the physical demands of touring. It features an intuitive OLED display for monitoring status and is powered by a high-capacity rechargeable lithium-ion battery. By combining the proven sonic character and durability of a professional dynamic microphone with the groundbreaking wireless reliability of dual-channel digital transmission, the ADX2FD/VP68 represents a pinnacle solution for professionals who cannot compromise on either audio quality or signal integrity.
