Combining the ease of use and industry leading flexibility of the original system with an updated design, OLED displays, longer battery life, expanded range, elevated sound quality and an impressive list of new pro features that set it apart from the original Blink 500 system and competitors. While still being remarkably easy to use. So, you can literally just turn it on, and start recording.
Blink 500 Pro B5 is an incredibly compact, lightweight, and professional sounding wireless microphone system that was made for devices that have USB-C ports, like Android smartphones or tablets, computers, and more. The included transmitter is small enough to clip directly to shirt collars, and the included USB-C receiver is so lightweight and unobtrusive that it can easily be used in handheld gimbals. The Blink 500 B5 makes using wireless microphones with Android devices as easy as possible and it provides broadcast-quality sound in a package that's amazingly compact and lightweight
Unmatched Power and Range, Paired with Sophisticated Simplicity
The Blink 500 Pro B5 takes power and range to a higher level. With an expanded range of up to 100m and the expanded battery life of up to 8-hours, users now have the freedom for wider, more expansive shots without fear of dropouts and have the ability to shoot for an entire day on one charge. The included charging carry case provides vital protection for storage and transit, but also provides a rechargeable internal battery allowing you to charge your system anywhere. Perfect for creators that are always on the go, to never be without power to charge. You can even pair it with a USB power banks, for remote charging when filming on location. Lastly, with revolutionary one-touch pairing built into the charging case, you can sync the Transmitter and Receiver with ease without fumbling through menus, searching through channels, or even removing from the case.
Mic or Line, It’s All Fine
As an added unique and amazing feature, the Blink 500 Pro TX transmitters also allow you to transmit microphone-level or line-level signal wirelessly and provides plug-in power to microphones. This makes the system tremendously versatile allowing you to connect it to virtually any audio source. You can use the included SR-M1 lavalier or plug in a mini-shotgun microphone, you can add a headset microphone, or a higher-end lavalier. Just about any 3.5mm microphone wired for standard TRS pin-out will work and adjustable mic gain lets you get perfect levels every time. Switch the TX transmitters to line-level and connect them to mixers, music players, or any line-level device output you want to transmit wirelessly to the receiver.
The Tiny, but Mighty TX Transmitters
Blink 500 Pro TX transmitters are ridiculously compact and lightweight, yet they deliver high-quality professional sound, anyway you want to use them. They feature a built-in omnidirectional microphone with an impressive sensitivity of -39dB. Giving you dynamic, crystal-clear sound quality on a transmitter that you can easily clip to a shirt, collar or slide into a pocket, yet versatile enough to set on a table or podium. The TX transmitters also operate as traditional bodypack transmitters with the included SR-M1 professional omnidirectional lavalier microphones, providing an even more visually discreet miking solution. They can also be used handheld, by themselves or with the optional Blink 500 Pro HM Handheld Mic Holder (sold separately). A 3.5mm headphone lets you monitor the sound in real-time, even if your device lacks a headphone output. The RX features a much-desired selectable Mono / Stereo output setting, giving you the ability record each mic to separate channels.
