Saramonic Blink 500 ProX B2R 2.4GHz Dual-Channel Wireless Microphone System with Charging Case

Saramonic Blink 500 ProX B2R – Dual 2.4GHz Wireless Microphone System with Charging Case and Onboard Recorders

The Saramonic Blink 500 ProX B2R is a dual 2.4GHz clip-on wireless system that combines on-board recording and versatile connectivity for two people. It provides broadcast-quality audio to cameras, recorders, mixers, mobile devices, computers, and other devices with a 3.5mm input. This kit targets content creators, filmmakers, journalists, vloggers, and live streamers who need a portable, easy-to-use dual-microphone solution.

What the system includes and who it suits

The system ships as a complete package for two-person setups. It is ultra-portable and lightweight, making it suitable for run-and-gun shoots, interviews, and on-location recording. It includes two clip-on transmitters with built-in recorders, two lavalier microphones, a dual-channel receiver, and a portable charging carry case.

Onboard 24-bit / 48kHz recorders for reliable backups

Both transmitters feature 24-bit / 48kHz lossless .wav onboard recording. Each transmitter contains 8GB of internal storage, which can hold up to 14 hours and 50 minutes of backup audio at 24-bit/48kHz. You can record backup audio directly to each transmitter to protect against interference or dropouts. The recorders use a simple tactile switch for start/stop control, and the switches are inset to prevent accidental shutoff while recording.

When you need the files, simply connect a transmitter to your computer and drag the audio files to your desktop. No specialized app or extra processing is required, so you can retrieve files quickly and without fuss. You can also use each transmitter as a standalone recorder when needed.

Compact transmitters with integrated microphones and lavalier support

The Blink 500 ProX TXR transmitters include built-in omnidirectional microphones rated at a sensitivity of -39dB. They deliver professional dynamic sound from a small, light clip-on unit that you can attach to a shirt or collar. The kit also includes SR-M1 omnidirectional lavalier microphones so you can operate the transmitters as traditional belt-pack units for a more discreet setup.

Transmitters provide tactile input gain controls so you can adjust audio levels on the fly. A soft-touch mute button gives you quick privacy control when you need to mute a mic. These features keep the workflow straightforward during shoots.

Flexible inputs: line-level, mic-level, and plug-in power

Each TXR transmitter can transmit and record line-level or microphone-level signals. The transmitters also provide plug-in power to compatible microphones. This flexibility lets you connect the system to mixers, audio players, or other line-level sources and send that audio wirelessly to the receiver or to the transmitter’s onboard recorder.

You can use the included SR-M1 lavaliers, add a headset mic, use a higher-end lavalier like the Saramonic DK3G, or plug in a mini-shotgun microphone. The system supports virtually any 3.5mm microphone wired for standard TRS pin-out. With adjustable mic gain and the receiver’s input gain meter, you can set appropriate levels for each source.

Compact receiver with monitoring and multiple outputs

The RX dual-channel receiver mounts on a camera and features a vivid OLED display. The display shows receiver battery life, headphone level, and each transmitter’s level meter, battery life, and connection strength at a glance. This visual feedback helps you confirm levels and connection status quickly during production.

The system includes both a 3.5mm TRS output cable and a 3.5mm TRRS output cable, making it compatible with cameras, mobile devices, recorders, mixers, and computers. You can choose a selectable Mono / Stereo output to either record each mic to separate channels or mix them. A 3.5mm headphone output with level control lets you monitor sound in real time. If you need other connections, you can adapt the receiver’s TRS output to Lightning, USB-C, USB, or XLR using Saramonic adapters or interfaces (sold separately).

Power, battery life, and the portable charging case

The Blink 500 ProX B2R delivers up to 10 hours of system battery life (about 8.5 hours when recording). This runtime is designed to support long shoots without frequent recharges. The system also includes a 3000mAh portable charging carry case that supplies an additional 2.5 full system charges while you are on the move.

With the receiver, transmitters, and the charged case, you can reach a combined runtime of up to 35 hours on a full system and case charge. Opening the charging case powers the system on, and closing the case powers the system off automatically. Additionally, each transmitter and the receiver have USB-C charging ports, so you can power or charge them while in use using USB battery packs or an external power supply.
