It provides the microphone capsule and transmitter together, rather than requiring you to select a capsule separately. This 494–542 MHz bundle requires a compatible Novacore receiver, sold separately; it is not a complete wireless system on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUse a directional capsule for vocals and speech\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included NCEC uses an extended cardioid pickup pattern and Audix VLM capsule technology. Aim the capsule toward the voice and maintain a consistent working distance for more consistent level and tone. During rehearsal or sound check, check the microphone with the intended loudspeakers and monitors; a directional pickup pattern does not eliminate feedback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a presenter moving around a stage or a singer working with a live band, the handheld format keeps microphone positioning under the user's control. Avoid covering the grille, and check the sound at the positions the performer will actually use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdjust the transmitter for the application\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NCHH provides variable input gain, a low-cut filter, and an audio limiter to help match the microphone signal to the rest of the system. Set levels with the performer at their expected volume, then check receiver and mixer levels. The limiter does not replace appropriate gain staging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelect between 1 mW and 10 mW RF output as part of the installation's wireless plan. Standard, Auto, and Bypass mute modes let you configure mute behavior for the application. The LCD provides operating information, with setup controls beneath the battery cover. Confirm the settings before handing the microphone to the user.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMatch the receiver and operating band\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAES-256 encrypted digital transmission and IR synchronization support setup with a compatible Novacore receiver. Match transmitter and receiver operating bands, choose suitable frequencies, and test reception throughout the intended performance area. IR sync simplifies pairing but does not replace frequency coordination or guarantee coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChange capsules as your needs change\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard S-thread mount allows the included NCEC to be exchanged for a compatible capsule, including the optional Audix NCTH Tight Hypercardioid. Confirm compatibility before choosing another capsule; the capsule determines pickup pattern and other microphone characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlan battery power and charging\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe transmitter operates on two AA alkaline batteries or one NCLB rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Listed runtime is 9+ hours; use actual operating conditions to plan battery changes rather than treating that figure as a guarantee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe built-in USB-C port provides a charging connection for use with the appropriate rechargeable battery. Do not attempt to recharge alkaline AA batteries. A USB-A to USB-C cable is included; batteries and a USB power source are not listed in the packing list below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBundle:\u003c\/strong\u003e NCHH handheld transmitter and NCEC capsule\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePickup pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Extended cardioid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWireless platform:\u003c\/strong\u003e Audix Novacore digital UHF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperating band for this listing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 494–542 MHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTuning bandwidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48 MHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEncryption:\u003c\/strong\u003e AES-256\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePairing:\u003c\/strong\u003e IR sync with a compatible receiver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eListed latency:\u003c\/strong\u003e Less than 3 ms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRF output settings:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 mW or 10 mW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSignal controls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Variable input gain, low-cut filter, and limiter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMute modes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard, Auto, and Bypass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapsule mount:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard S-thread, interchangeable capsule design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two AA alkaline batteries or one NCLB rechargeable lithium-ion battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReceiver:\u003c\/strong\u003e Required separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIn the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNCHH - Novacore UHF Digital Handheld Transmitter Body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNCEC - Novacore Extended Cardioid Wireless Capsule\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNCCC - 20\" Charging Cable, USB-A to USB-C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Audix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67790401667250,"sku":"ADX NCHHEC","price":349.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/8122\/2322\/files\/NCHHEC-Front_png.jpg?v=1792783316","url":"https:\/\/www.performanceaudio.com\/products\/audix-nchhec-novacore-uhf-digital-handheld-wireless-transmitter-with-ncec-extended-cardioid-capsule-494-542-mhz","provider":"Performance Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
