Thanks to Sennheiser’s EW-DP, choosing an advanced digital wireless system to record audio for your video project is no longer a daunting task. Specifically engineered for filmmakers and content creators looking to make their mark, it’s a professional-grade system that's easy to use while delivering exceptional audio quality. 

Now it’s time to decide which EW-DP set is right for you. Different sets come with different microphones, each with its own strengths and ideal use cases. So, let's dive into the world of EW-DP and help you find the perfect match for your next project. 

EW-DP systems are available in four variants, each containing different microphones designed for specific applications. We’ll discuss each microphone option here so you can determine which is best for your needs. 

The ME 2 is a small, omnidirectional condenser microphone that excels at capturing spoken dialogue. Its omnidirectional pattern ensures consistent sound pickup from all directions, making it ideal for dynamic situations where your subject needs complete freedom of movement. The ME 2's high speech intelligibility guarantees clear, intelligible dialogue, while its discreet design allows for easy attachment to clothing.

The ME 4 is a go-to lavalier microphone for shooting in loud environments with high ambient noise. This small, cardioid clip-on mic rejects background noise and focuses on the subject’s voice from the top of the mic. This gives you high speech intelligibility and ensures clear dialogue even in challenging conditions. Like the ME 2, the ME 4 is discreet and easy to attach to clothing.

For situations demanding a fast and convenient handheld wireless microphone setup, you can’t beat the EW-DP 835 Set. It combines the EW-D SKM-S digital handheld transmitter with an MMD 835 dynamic cardioid microphone module, ideal for man-on-the-street and broadcast interviews. The module is part of the Sennheiser Evolution 800 series and delivers a rich, full-bodied sound. Its cardioid pattern helps isolate the speaker's voice and reduce background noise.

The SKP plug-on transmitter turns nearly any XLR microphone into a wireless mic, providing wireless freedom for your favorite wired mics. Featuring +48V phantom power, the SKP is compatible with most condenser and ribbon microphones. Furthermore, attaching it to shotgun mics gives you untethered freedom in demanding spaces. 

The SKP also features a microSD card slot for recording audio directly to the transmitter and a 3.5 mm lav mic input for added flexibility. Whether your needs call for a handheld microphone or a wireless shotgun, the SKP provides you flexibility and freedom without sacrificing sound quality.

Choosing the right EW-DP set for your content, video project, or film depends on your specific needs and shooting environments. To make your decision, consider the following factors: 

• Microphone type: Do you need a lavalier mic for hands-free operation, a handheld mic for dynamic environments, or the flexibility of the SKP transmitter for wireless use with different microphone types, such as a boom mic?
• Audio environment: Will you be shooting in noisy locations that require a mic with increased noise-rejection capabilities?
• Combinations: Should you consider an option like the EW-DP ENG Set, which comes with both the ME 2 lavalier mic and the SKP plug-in transmitter? Keep in mind that EW-DP is scalable, letting you add additional mics and receivers to your audio equipment setup according to your requirements. 

With its range of high-quality microphones and adaptable features, Sennheiser’s EW-DP digital UHF wireless mic system has a solution for every video application. Take the time to explore the options, and you'll be well on your way to capturing exceptional audio for your next project.
