The Sennheiser EW-DP ME4 Set is a new wireless system for audio recording in videography. This digital UHF system is compact, portable, and convenient. Whether you’re working on live video broadcasts, news interviews, content creation, film, or TV, this system will get you the results you need.
The EW-DP range offers Bluetooth connectivity for connecting the receiver and transmitter, as well as control via the Sennheiser Smart Assist app. Its intelligent battery management system monitors your battery life, letting you know how long you can use it for, while Sennheiser’s new design has extended battery life to 12 hours on the transmitter and 7 hours on the receiver.
The EW-DP will help you get the best possible sound with not only a stunningly wide dynamic range of 134 dB, but its Smart Notifications system will let you know and suggest ways of correcting issues like clipping. This wireless system also features a magnetic housing design for its components to make it easy to stack and configure however you need. The ME4 Set also includes Sennheiser’s cardioid lavalier microphone, the ME4, delivering clear upfront vocals under challenging conditions.

Detailed sound quality
The best of both worlds, the EW-DP is a digital UHF system which combines the efficiency and clarity of digital wireless systems with the flexibility, stability, and broad feature set. This ensures whatever you’re filming – from vlogs to interviews to live broadcasting and filmmaking – all sound excellent and professional.
Comfortable and flexible design
The EW-DP system features magnetically stacking receivers that provide great flexibility for setup while filming. Adjust their placement with changing light to achieve visibility of the OLED display. Plus, compatibility with individual cell’s lithium-ion battery packs and USB-C charging make sure your system can work throughout long filming sessions and keep running.
Smart Assistance no matter what
Bluetooth compatibility in this wireless system lets you control setup and monitor your recordings using any iOS or Android device, from smartphones or tablets alike. Automatic frequency coordination for up to 16 systems will find you a clean, clear channel instantly. An all-new Smart Notifications system adds extra functionality to the receivers. Their OLED display will give you feedback on issues affecting your recording and how to address them as soon as they pop up, keeping downtime and troubleshooting to a minimum. Whether you need to adjust your gain to prevent clipping, low battery, blocked frequencies, transmitter and receiver desync, or accidental muting can all be responded to quickly and easily.
ME4 Lavalier Microphone included
The Sennheiser ME 4 features a discrete and unobtrusive design with a cardioid condenser capsule. The integrated clip allows you to quickly, easily, and securely attach the ME 4 to clothing. The Sennheiser ME 4 accurately captures close-proximity vocals and rejects both feedback and ambient off-axis noise.
