The Shure AD2/VP68 is a digital handheld wireless microphone transmitter compatible with Axient Digital series receivers.

The AD2/VP68 comes equipped with a VP68 condenser capsule that delivers a natural sound optimized for speech intelligibility. The capsule's omnidirectional polar pattern ensures that the sound remains consistent, even when moving the mic between speakers.

The transmitter operates in a single 146 MHz ultrawide UHF bandwidth with selectable 2/10/35mW RF output power and a transmission range up to 330'. It provides up to 8 hours of operation on two AA batteries and up to 9 hours with an SB900A lithium-ion rechargeable battery (available separately).

With a durable, moisture-resistant, lightweight aluminum case, the AD2/VP68 transmitter delivers pristine audio quality and RF performance, AES 256-bit encryption for secure transmission, and advanced rechargeability options, making it ideal for high-profile, sound-reinforcement applications.

Interchangeable Design with VP68 Capsule

• The VP68 offers excellent clarity for both on-axis and off-axis audio, requiring minimal positioning toward the sound source.
• The interchangeable capsule design allows you to replace the VP68 capsule with a Shure capsule that’s ideal for your application and simply screw it onto the transmitter—including KSM9, KSM8, SM58, Beta 87A, Beta 87C capsules, and more.
