The Saramonic Blink 500 ProX B2 is a compact wireless microphone system designed for straightforward video and field recording. It pairs reliable 2.4GHz transmission with easy monitoring and a portable charging case so creators can record with consistent audio and convenient connectivity.
The system uses advanced 2.4GHz transmission combined with frequency-hopping technology to maintain a stable connection. As a result, you can capture clear audio at distances up to 100 meters (about 328 feet). Moreover, this setup helps the system remain reliable even in areas with high RF activity.
Each transmitter includes a built-in omnidirectional condenser capsule and also provides a 3.5mm TRS input for an external lavalier microphone. The system delivers an 84 dB signal-to-noise ratio, a 48 kHz sampling rate, and a 20–20 kHz frequency response. These specifications support clear recordings with minimal background noise and the fidelity expected for video and content production.
With an 8 ms ultra-low latency, the Blink 500 ProX B2 is suitable for situations that require tight audio sync, such as online meetings or live teaching. The receiver handles two transmitters simultaneously and offers selectable mono or stereo output modes, which makes post-production editing and multi-person recording easier.
The receiver includes a 3.5mm headphone jack for both real-time and playback monitoring. It also reproduces background audio coming from a connected phone while recording, allowing you to hear the full audio context. A 0–6 level gain control helps you tailor the output level precisely to your recording device.
The transmitters provide up to 10 hours of recording time on a single charge. Additionally, the included charging case supplies another 20–30 hours of runtime, extending the system’s availability throughout a full day of shooting. Opening the charging case automatically turns on both transmitters (TX) and the receiver (RX), simplifying power management on set. The system charges via a USB-C port (DC 5V).
The Blink 500 ProX B2 connects to a wide range of devices. Using TRS or TRRS cables and the available output options, the system can attach to DSLRs, audio mixers, modern computers, smartphones, and tablets. The receiver’s 3.5mm output and included cables make it straightforward to integrate with common recording setups.
