Axient, from Shure, present in 2012 in great events such as the Olympic Games

Shure's revolutionary wireless technology demonstrated her worth at the London Olympic Games. Axient's efficiency in the use of RF spectro was also a decisive factor to choose the system.

Axient wireless microphones of Shure They were widely used in numerous events during 2012 but perhaps one of their most notable applications was their involvement in the opening and closure ceremonies of the latest London Olympic Games. The organization of the event opted for Shure since the beginning of the systems design process for ceremonies. These past games marked Axient's debut in an Olympic ceremony.

Axient's choice was based on numerous characteristics of these new systems such as audio quality, frequency diversity, and unique battery recharge technology developed for Axient.

Scott Willsallen, Audio Systems Designer London 2012., stressed that “we use micros with Shure KSM9 capsule as a standard micro in these systems, with the possibility of changing to beta 58 if the artists involved were ... say ... noisy! The axient transmitter with the KSM9 capsula sounds as if we used a KSM9 of cable; phenomenal.

Axient wireless, offer the possibility of transmitting at two frequencies at the same time, if necessary. This is received in two or three recipient locations for each artist, for redundancy issues. This characteristic is key when betting on wireless microphones. It also highlights the technology used for the rechargeable elements, since it is possible to see at any time how much battery remains in the transmitters throughout the network in 5 -minute stripes with great reliability, totally innovative characteristic of this system that allows a great saving of time and money, in addition to being sustainable. It is estimated that the event stopped using about 26,000 batteries thanks to rechargeable batteries.

Axient's efficiency in the use of the RF spectrum was also a decisive factor to choose the system. Axient can operate on 20 wireless channels on a standard TV channel in 8MHz England. The radio spectrum plan was made to be used with UHF-R wireless microphones and add Axient was like an "extra bonus" given the system's ability to have many more channels in the same spectrum.
