Wireless frequency regulations differ from region to region. If you're unsure which K9 frequency range is right for your area, feel free to contact your local Saramonic sales representative or retailer, who can help you choose the appropriate frequency range for your region and application.
Yes. The K9 XTX features a standard 3-pin XLR connector and works with dynamic microphones, condenser microphones, recorders, and other XLR-equipped audio devices.
Choose a plug-on transmitter if you want to convert a standard, wired handheld or shotgun microphone (like a SG MIC) into a wireless mic. Bodypacks are better for lavalier mics, headsets, and situations where you need to hide the transmitter in clothing. Check more from this article.
Absolutely. By eliminating long microphone cables, the K9 XTX allows crews to move quickly between locations, reduce setup time, and maintain a cleaner production environment—especially useful for documentaries, news gathering, and fast-paced field productions.
The K9 XTX works with the Saramonic System App, allowing sound teams to remotely monitor and control up to 48 devices from a smartphone or tablet. Users can adjust gain, change frequencies, mute channels, and perform firmware updates without physically accessing transmitters, helping streamline workflow on complex multi-talent productions.
Unlike traditional plug-on transmitters that rely on analog compander technology, the K9 XTX uses a digital wideband UHF transmission system with up to 130 dB input dynamic range to preserve the natural sound and dynamics of professional microphones. Built-in 32-bit float onboard recording also provides a high-quality backup recording for added production security.
The K9 XTX comes standard with 64 GB of high-speed internal storage, which provides hours of reliable backup recording out of the box. For extended documentary shoots or multi-day productions where offloading data immediately isn't possible, the transmitter supports external storage expansion up to 256 GB via a dedicated TF card slot, giving production crews maximum flexibility and absolute peace of mind while capturing critical 32-bit float audio.
The K9 XTX features an integrated timecode generator and reader that can synchronize wirelessly within the Saramonic ecosystem or via cable with external master clocks and compatible cinema cameras. By embedding matching timecode into recorded media, editing software such as DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere Pro can automatically synchronize audio and video, significantly reducing post-production workflow time.
