Wireless Microphone Systems
Professional wireless audio for your French production.
Wireless microphone systems enable untethered audio capture, giving talent freedom of movement while maintaining broadcast-quality sound. Modern digital wireless systems offer reliable transmission, wide frequency range, and encryption to avoid interference in complex RF environments common on busy sets.
We source and coordinate wireless microphone systems with the frequency bands and channel counts your production requires. Our team handles spectrum coordination and ensures backup units are available, so your sound department can operate confidently across multiple shooting locations.

Wireless microphone systems for French production locations
Here is how this works in practice. Wireless work in France is shaped by the local RF reality — the saturated range around Bastille, La Défense, and the Cité du Cinéma backlot, the cleaner air over rural Provence and Côte d'Azur exteriors, and the rules set by ANFR. We supply Lectrosonics Digital, Wisycom MCR54 and MTP series, Zaxcom, and Sennheiser EW-D systems through Paris rental partners including TSF, RVZ, and Loca-Images, with frequency coordination handled in advance so a six-cast scene in a Marais courtyard runs as clean as a single-lav documentary day in Toulouse.
Here is the short of it. Each package ships with matched lav choices — DPA 4060 and 6060 for concealment in period costume on a Loire Valley feature, Sanken COS-11D for run-and-gun documentary days in Lyon or Marseille, and Countryman B6 for short-haired wardrobe on commercial shoots. Plus antenna distribution, RF cables, spare transmitters for every active channel, and backup capsules held in Paris on a same-day swap clock.
Our team scans the location before delivery, allocates channels for camera-side hops, IEMs, and comms in a single set up plan, files the necessary ANFR paperwork, and stays reachable from Paris throughout the shoot so a frequency conflict gets diagnosed and resolved before it ever reaches the slate.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What wireless systems do you recommend?
For professional narrative work, we recommend Lectrosonics Digital or Wisycom for their audio quality, reliability, and spectral efficiency. Zaxcom offers recording-capable transmitters. For budget-conscious productions, Sennheiser EW-D provides excellent value.
How many wireless channels can you provide?
We can provide as many channels as your production requires—from single transmitters to dozens of coordinated channels for large cast productions. Our frequency coordination ensures all channels operate without interference.
What lavalier microphones do you stock?
We carry DPA 4060 and 6060 (subminiature), Sanken COS-11D, Sennheiser MKE series, and Countryman lavalieres. Each has different characteristics suited to various concealment and sound requirements.
How do you handle frequency coordination?
We scan your locations to identify clean frequencies and coordinate all wireless systems to avoid interference. This includes both your wireless mics and any other RF equipment like wireless video or IEMs.
What about range and coverage?
Range depends on the system and environment. We configure antenna distribution and RF cables to ensure reliable coverage for your shooting area. For large locations, we can provide multiple receiver setups.
Do you provide backup equipment?
Yes, we recommend and can provide backup transmitters and receivers for longer shoots. Having backup wireless protects your production against equipment failures.
