Shure ADX3 Axient Digital Plug-On Transmitter

The Shure ADX3 turns any XLR microphone into an Axient Digital wireless mic, plugging onto the mic’s output with a locking connector that holds it firm.

ShowLink, Shure’s 2.4 GHz control link, gives the receiver real-time control of every transmitter setting, and automatic input staging sets the gain. Phantom power switches between 12 V and 48 V, so the ADX3 powers condenser microphones as well as dynamics, and a high-pass filter can be set from 40 to 240 Hz.

Two SB900C rechargeable batteries come in the box, each running the ADX3 for more than 7.5 hours. AA batteries also work, and USB-C supplies external power and charging. The rugged cast-metal body carries an OLED display.

Three bands are offered: G57 (470 to 616 MHz), K54 (606 to 663 MHz), and X55 (941 to 960 MHz).
