Introduction to the XDS95 Digital UHF Wireless
Created specifically for performing and recording musicians who
demand to be untethered without compromising their sound, the XDS95
24-bit digital wireless system delivers your tone and performance with
the sound and feel of a direct wire connection.
X2’s proprietary digital technology provides superior fidelity while the XDS95’s "stomp-box"
style receiver houses a micro-processor that selects the digital data stream from among the
four internally mounted Q-diversity™ antennas to eliminate dropouts and interference
including DTV. You’ll enjoy the sound and performance of a direct wire connection free from
compander ICs - and the associated ’pumping’ and ’breathing’ - that squash your tone, as
well as other problems associated with analog wireless technology.
Operating the system is unlike any wireless you’ve tried before. Simply connect the transmitter to the source via the 1/8" threaded-collar locking connector and the "stomp-box" style
receiver to your amplifier, mixer or pedal-board. Then power up making sure the transmitter
and receiver are set to the same channel. That’s it. You’re ready to go! No knobs to adjust
and no antennas to loose or break mean you’re up and running in the time it would take to
connect a cable.
About the XDS95 Digital Wireless System
All of this sound and performance is provided to you with an incredible feature set including:
• 24-bit digital converters yield 117 dB dynamic range
• Frequency Clear™ 900 MHz UHF means no FCC or DTV concerns
• Q-Diversity™ receiver eliminates dropouts, multipathing and interference
• Five user-selectable channels (all five are fully compatible for simultaneous use)
• Auto-DigiScan™ to confidently select an open channel
• Frequency response all the way down to 10 Hz for truly thundering lows
• TRS 1/4" output for instrument and full-bandwidth, or ’tuner out’ applications
• Five segment LED display (battery status, link status, audio level, RF level and channel)
With the XDS95 Digital UHF Wireless System you’ll have the freedom and sound to deliver
your most expressive performance every time without any hassles or complicated setup
procedures.
To familiarize you with your new digital wireless system, we suggest that you read through
this entire operation manual.
