Thank you for your purchase of the XD-V35 wireless microphone system. It is a high quality digital
wireless system, in a simple format that is virtually plug-and-play. With its fully digital transmission,
the system provides features and benefits that differ in some ways from previous generations of analog
wireless, but in most respects you use it just like other wireless systems. By understanding a few simple
concepts, you’ll be able to achieve superior audio quality, a secure and dropout-free signal, and the
ability to use multiple channels of wireless together without interference or other conflicts.
•Digital transmission in the 2.4 GHz band – license-free operation worldwide
•Avoids interference from high-power TV transmitters in the UHF bands
•Digital technology provides the audio response of a cable, without companding – 24-bit digital
•Fast setup: gain, squelch, or level adjustments not required
•6 channels that work together simultaneously
•275 foot (83 meter) range
•Transmitter life > 8 hours on two AA alkaline batteries
•Battery level and RF LED meters
•Table top receiver with internal antenna
•XLR and ¼" TRS output connectors
•Designed for compatibility with previous XD-V30 systems
RecommendationsfoR Best PeRfoRmance
•Maintain a clear line of sight between the transmitter and receiver’s internal antennas.
Typically the receiver should be placed at table top or higher level. Avoid placing the receiver
in the bottom of the rack or behind walls and obstructions.
•When transmitters are used at a greater distance, place receivers closer to them and use XLR
mic (or ¼") cables to connect to the audio system.
•Avoid placing the receiver in close proximity to RF generating equipment including computers,
wireless access points, in ear monitor transmitters and microwave ovens.
•Avoid blocking antennas in the transmitters. Do not “cup” the bottom of the handheld
transmitter. Avoid placing the bodypack transmitter in pockets.

Xd-V35 ReceiVeR detailed setuP
The receiver is quite simple to set up. This section adds a few useful details.
•When used stand-alone, position the receiver on a surface that provides line of sight (or at
least near line of sight) with the location where the transmitters will be used. This will help
maximize the range.
•Connect the provided DC-1G power supply to the 9VDC 200mA connector on the rear
panel; to secure, press a loop of the cable through the cable holder located to the left of the
connector to prevent accidental disconnection. Plug the power supply into an available AC
outlet that provides voltage from 90 – 240 VAC at 50 or 60 Hz.

the transmitter and receiver – all three or the bottom one or two RF LEDs lit green, on the
right side of the

the receiver has no gain or attenuation controls.
Do not use TRS connectors with the XDV35 Receiver as the Ring portion of the connector is used for firmware updates and may cause
computer generated noise in your audio outputs.
Note: When the associated transmitter is off, and moderate to strong interfering frequencies not coming
from a Line 6 transmitter are present on the selected receiver channel, one or more of the RF LEDs on
the right side of
Trans Status will turn red. Higher levels of interference will light more red LEDs. Use
in high interference conditions will result in reduced range for the system. Either move the receiver
away from the source of the interference – such as a nearby WiFi modem or computer with a WiFi
transceiver – or select another channel not showing interference.

•Twist the bottom section of the THH06 transmitter counterclockwise, unscrew, and remove
it. Lightly pull the battery cover tab down with a thumbnail, and open the cover by pulling
back; it is hinged at the base of the transmitter.
•Insert two AA batteries, noting the polarity markings shown in the battery compartment. Use
alkaline batteries, or rechargeable NiMH batteries in the 2400 – 2800 mAh range. Close the
battery cover and replace the bottom section of the transmitter.
•Press and briefly hold the left button below the

•Press the right
Select button to change to the next channel; the blue LED above the number
will light. Each press of the button will go to the next channel. The channel is selected
and active immediately.
Note, the transmitter buttons are recessed to prevent accidental
activation, so press them down firmly below the recessed surface, until you feel a click.
•When the transmitter is on the same channel number as the receiver, the receiver
Status LEDs will light green, and when you speak in the mic the receiver Audio LED will
light green.
Note: When the transmitter battery level is low, the LED over the number 6 on the display will light
red, and it will flash red when less than 40 minutes remain. Line 6 transmitter battery-life meters are
calibrated for use with alkaline batteries, so when NiMH rechargeable batteries are used the remaining
life will not be as accurate – however, the basic indication is to insert fresh batteries soon after the LED
shows red. Carbon-zinc batteries are not recommended.

connectingtHe Xd-V35 ReceiVeR
The receiver features a balanced XLR and unbalanced (tip-sleeve) quarter-inch connector. To connect
to a mixing board or powered mixer, use a microphone cable between the receiver output and the
mixer’s mic-level input – in the same way as you would connect a wired microphone. The output of the
XD-V35 receiver is virtually identical to that of the microphone on the transmitter, or other standard
wired mic.
To connect to an instrument amplifier or other audio equipment with a quarter-inch connector such
as a signal processor or effects unit, use a 1/4” to 1/4” instrument cable. This output is also mic level.
Microphone Usage Tips
Try to maintain a constant distance and relationship between the user’s mouth and the microphone. In
live theatre this is often done by placing a small mic in the hairline toward the front side of the head or
right above the ear. With mic placement on the collar or shoulder area, changes in level can occur as
the user’s head turns; experiment with the location of the mic to minimize this effect. Mic placement in
the center of the chest can help with the level changes, but is farther from the voice and quite shielded
from the direct energy of the voice, so typically provides a hollow midrange or “chest” sound to the
voice.
The V35 Belt Pack transmitter includes a built in roll-off filter.
Walk-Testing the Performance Area
When first setting up a wireless system in a new location, it is good practice to position the receivers
where they will remain during the event, and then walk the entire performing area with the audio
system on and the transmitter active. Talk and listen for signal dropouts or other problems, and note
where they are with respect to your receiver placement.
If possible, reposition the receiver to obtain better coverage and improve or eliminate areas with lower
signal strength – by improving line-of-sight to the transmitter.

Setting THH06 and TBP06 Transmitters to XD-V30 Compatibility Mode
The XD-V35 system ships set to the new dual frequency RF2 mode. To use an XD-V35 version
transmitter with an earlier generation XD-V30 receiver (RF1 mode), you must change the transmitter
from RF2 mode to RF1 mode. The method differs slightly between the handheld and beltpack.
THH06 Handheld Transmitter
•Turn the transmitter off.
•Press and hold the channel SELECT button.
•While holding the SELECT button, press and hold the power ON button.
•The blue LED over channel 1 will flash three times to indicate that the transmitter is in the
RF1 mode.
•To revert to the RF2 mode, repeat the above steps; the blue LED over channel 2 will flash
three times when the transmitter is in this mode.
TBP06 Beltpack Transmitter
•With transmitter off, set the Channel Select slide switch to channel 6.
•Turn on the transmitter.
•Wait for the blue LED to flash followed by a green LED flash.
•Immediately slide the Channel Select switch completely left to channel 1.
•Quickly slide the Channel Select switch completely right to channel 6.
•This process must be completed within three seconds of turning on the transmitter.
•The blue LED will flash once to indicate that the transmitter is now in the RF1 transmission
mode. To revert to RF2 transmission mode, repeat the above steps; the blue LED will flash
twice when the transmitter is in this mode.
