Digital dual-band receiver

The Shure GLXD4+ is a receiver for the GLXD+ series of digital wireless transmitters. This digital wireless system for instruments and microphones can be operated both cost and licence-free as its dual-band design works in the 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz frequency ranges and its transmitters have an output of 10mW, which provides a range of up to 60m. The system's automatic frequency management technology means that the receiver always selects the signal frequency with the best reception, and the system can also switch to interference-free carrier frequencies automatically during operation without any loss of audio signal. The scope of delivery also includes the required power adapter.

Practical battery replacement and firmware solutions

The Shure GLXD4+ wireless receiver generates a digital output signal via an XLR and 6.3mm jack socket and thus according to two different standards. The system additionally includes a USB-C interface to make firmware updates easy to install. Two different options are available for recharging the lithium ion batteries of compatible bodypack transmitters and wireless microphone transmitters: The respective transmitter's USB-C connection or the battery charging socket on the front of the stationary receiver. The receiver's LC display indicates which group and channel is active and how much battery life remains (in hours and minutes) as well as the audio volume level, signal gain level, and more. The incoming signal can be fed to a mixing desk via the XLR output, while amplifiers and small active PA systems can be fed via a jack cable.

For beginners and advanced users

The Shure GLXD4+ system's simple and intuitive operation makes it a good choice for newcomers to the world of wireless systems, but its design and features, such as the highly portable plastic table receiver that weighs just 310 grams and, by contrast, the particularly robust metal construction of the transmitter, also make it an interesting proposition for more advanced users who plan to use it more frequently. Those looking for an easy-to-use wireless system that can be operated with up to 16 transmission paths at once can do this by utilising the 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz frequency bands simultaneously. Alternatively, up to eleven receivers can be operated at the same time using just the 2.4GHz setting.

About Shure

The American company Shure began developing microphones during the early 1930s and is one of the pioneers of the audio engineering sector. Models such as the 55 Unidyne - known to many as the "Elvis microphone" - and the SM57 and SM58 which appeared in the mid-1960s are still ubiquitous in live sound production today. They enjoy cult status among musicians and technicians alike. In the 1990s, Shure introduced the first wireless microphones and in-ear monitoring systems and became a market leader in this field. In addition to microphones, Shure offers a wide range of earphones and headphones for studio and live use, as well as various accessories.

A blessing on dark stages

The Shure GLXD4+ is part of a versatile wireless solution with bodypack transmitters that are not restricted to operation with instruments, but can also be used in conjunction with lavalier and hand-held microphones as well as headsets, which not only makes the receiver ideal for guitarists, speakers, and moderators, but also for use in fitness studios and dance schools. Top-40 bands and solo entertainers who perform for lengthy periods can also look forward to up to 12 hours of operation on a single battery charge with any of the available transmitter types, and the battery level indicator on the receiver makes it easy to see when the next recharge is needed. Even if only one transmitter can be used with this receiver at once, it is still possible to couple it with two transmitters simultaneously, allowing the user to change microphones or instruments much more quickly. In this case, an ID, which allows the user to distinguish between the transmitters, is made available and can be read off the receiver. Last but not least, the receiver also features a backlit display with three different brightness settings - a blessing on dark stages.
