Shure SLXD2+/N8C-G57 Wireless Handheld Transmitter with Nexadyne 8/C
The Shure SLXD2+/N8C-G57 combines a Nexadyne™ 8/C cardioid dynamic vocal microphone with the advanced SLX-D+ digital wireless platform. Designed for professional singers, worship leaders, presenters, and live sound engineers, this handheld wireless transmitter delivers natural vocal reproduction, dependable UHF performance, and convenient remote control.
At the heart of the SLXD2+/N8C is Shure's Nexadyne 8/C microphone capsule, featuring patented Revonic™ dual-engine transducer technology. Paired with transparent 24-bit digital audio, ShowLink® Ease remote management, and a wide RF tuning range, it offers a versatile solution for demanding performance environments.
This product is a handheld transmitter with microphone capsule. A compatible wireless receiver is required and sold separately.
Nexadyne 8/C Cardioid Microphone with Revonic Technology
The Nexadyne 8/C is engineered to capture clear, detailed vocals while helping control unwanted sound from the surrounding stage.
Unlike conventional single-transducer dynamic microphones, Nexadyne's Revonic dual-engine technology uses two precisely tuned transducers working together to optimize acoustic performance.
The result is a microphone designed to deliver:
-
Natural, detailed vocal reproduction
-
Cardioid pickup that emphasizes sound arriving from the front
-
Reduced pickup of unwanted stage noise
-
Consistent vocal presence during live performances
-
Effective isolation for use with stage monitors and other instruments
For singers and presenters, these characteristics help maintain vocal intelligibility and allow the microphone to perform in challenging live sound environments.
Transparent 24-Bit Digital Wireless Audio
The SLXD2+/N8C uses Shure's SLX-D+ digital wireless technology to preserve vocal detail throughout the wireless signal path.
With 24-bit digital audio resolution and more than 118 dB of dynamic range, the system is designed to handle everything from spoken presentations to powerful live vocals.
Its digital transmission provides a clean audio signal without the companding artifacts associated with traditional analog wireless systems.
Wide RF Tuning for Professional Wireless Systems
The SLX-D+ platform provides up to 138 MHz of tuning bandwidth, giving audio professionals greater flexibility when coordinating wireless frequencies across different venues.
Depending on the operating environment and available spectrum, the platform supports up to 11 simultaneous systems within a 6 MHz TV channel or 14 systems within an 8 MHz TV channel.
The G57 frequency version is intended for compatible operation within its designated regional frequency range. Frequency availability and legal operation depend on location.
For touring productions, houses of worship, and installed systems, this flexibility helps simplify wireless microphone deployment.
ShowLink Ease Remote Transmitter Control
ShowLink® Ease enables compatible SLX-D+ receivers to communicate with linked transmitters for remote configuration and management.
Supported functions include:
-
Changing transmitter frequency after identifying an available channel
-
Adjusting RF output power
-
Locking or unlocking transmitter controls
-
Managing transmitter firmware updates
This capability is especially useful when a microphone is already in a performer's hands or when an engineer needs to make adjustments without accessing the transmitter directly.
Wireless Workbench Monitoring and AES-256 Encryption
The SLXD2+/N8C can be managed as part of a compatible SLX-D+ wireless system using Shure Wireless Workbench desktop software and Wireless Workbench Mobile.
These tools help audio professionals monitor RF conditions, coordinate frequencies, and manage supported receiver and transmitter settings.
The SLX-D+ platform also supports AES-256 encryption, providing an additional level of audio transmission security for corporate meetings, conferences, and professional productions.
Flexible Battery Power and Durable Construction
The SLXD2+/N8C features a rugged metal transmitter housing designed for regular professional use.
Power options include two AA batteries or an optional Shure SB903 lithium-ion rechargeable battery, with up to eight hours of operating time under supported conditions.
Rechargeable operation can help reduce disposable battery use and simplify power management for venues operating multiple wireless microphones.
