Production has enough challenges
Sound doesn’t need to be one of them

Time is measured differently on set. Seconds converted into frames, minutes into card space, hours into that precious remaining daylight. This calculation is reflected in our ever-evolving kits: we maximize space, reduce build time, and boil each set-up down to a science, all to fight the clock. It makes sense. Production is demanding, both in the challenges it presents, and the quality expected of its results—and it all comes down to time. 

EW-DP puts time on your side. A wireless microphone system that blends best-in-class technology with an ergonomic build, it will change the way you think of sound on set.

Fully digital UHF guarantees cutting-edge signal clarity and reliability. An innovative magnetic stacking system makes set-up a snap. Attach the cheese plate and stack receivers on top for fast and secure mounting, it’s as simple as that. Smart Notifications quickly identify missed yet critical problems that occur in your workflow. Alerts for audio clipping, low battery, blocked frequencies, muted transmitters, or unlinked devices automatically pop up so you’re never caught off guard. Auto frequency coordination locates, organizes, and maximizes frequency usage with precision ensuring you find the most reliable signal in the most efficient way possible. The Smart Assist app puts the control in the palm of your hand, allowing you to adjust your system at camera or across the room. In short, EW-DP enables you to save valuable time and energy. 

Every second counts on set. Each moment is an opportunity to push your work further. Whether you’re a crew of one or many, EW-DP is the ideal partner to simplify your audio workflow and give you the confidence to focus on a successful shoot. After all, production has enough challenges; sound doesn’t need to be one of them.

Capture every detail, every time

When it comes to wireless transmission, UHF is the standard by which all other wireless audio systems are measured by. Used by professionals the world over, Evolution Wireless operates in the UHF spectrum and is known for its reliability, flexibility, and comprehensive feature set. Combine that with the spectral efficiency and audio clarity that only digital technology can offer, and you get EW-DP – our most advanced wireless audio system for video applications. 

It's the little things…

Ergonomics were extremely important when developing EW-DP. Starting with the mechanical design, every button, connection, and component was thoughtfully considered for the best user experience possible. Furthermore, EW-DP is the first portable wireless system that has magnetically stackable receivers with a front-facing OLED display. These features allow for ease and flexibility when mounting your receiver, offering optimal visibility regardless of placement, angle, or light. A variety of powering options include primary-cells, lithium-ion rechargeable battery packs and direct power via USB-C, ensuring peace of mind during long hours on set. 

Guidance when you need it most

EW-DP is a wireless system that troubleshoots for you. As the old saying goes, to err is human. Smart Notifications provide suggestions to errors that occur when setting up or operating EW-DP. If your audio clips, the system will suggest lowering the gain. When your battery is running low, the system will alert you. If you try to operate on a blocked frequency, you will be promoted to select another. If your transmitter and receiver are not linked, you’ll be prompted to press sync. And if the talent accidentally mutes their transmitter, you’ll be notified and will have the option to disable the mute remotely. These guides make all the difference when audio isn’t your only responsibility.  

Control in the palm of your hand

EW-D Smart Assist provides automated setup, operation, and monitoring using any iOS or Android device via Bluetooth. Auto frequency coordination creates reliable wireless connections for up to 16 systems, no wireless expertise required. Remote access to system settings whether at camera or across the room allow for quick and discreet adjustments on the fly. You’ll also find a support hub with video tutorials and detailed manuals to help get you started.
