AMBIENT QWB – Screwable Boom Pole Segment w/ Mounting Plate for Wireless Booming

Increasing scene complexity, decreasing set-up time, and the demand to have the microphone instantly on spot are common for location sets or ENG situations of today. These requirements make a wireless boom the system of choice.

Although some manufacturers provide plug-on transmitters for this purpose, these units lack the versatility of a traditional transmitter that can also be used to quickly wire up an actor or reporter on demand. Ambient Recording introduces the QWB for use with the UMP to address this issue, enabling a belt pack to transmit the signal of any powered microphone.

The Quickpole Wireless Boom (QWB) is a mounting plate for the transmitter and the mic power supply at the tip of the boom. This is a preferred position since it reduces cable clutter, allows for quick collapsing and expanding of the boom, and provides a wide operation range with minimum interference.

Thanks to our Quickpole Standard carbon fiber tube for the mid-axis and thin aluminum for the mounting plates, the construction is lightweight but very sturdy. Hook-and-loop (Velcro®) straps and soft pads provide quick, easy and secure mounting of any common belt pack TX along with the UMP microphone power supply.
