Sound Devices is proud to announce the release of the SL-2 Dual SuperSlot Wireless Module for 8-Series mixer-recorders. The SL-2 is the first model of a new range of SuperSlot -based accessories which bring integrated multichannel wireless to the 8-Series.

This two slot-in wireless receiver integration system easily mounts to the top panel of any 8-Series mixer-recorder. It accepts UniSlot and SuperSlot wireless receivers from a variety of manufacturers, including Audio Ltd, Lectrosonics, Wisycom, and Sennheiser. The SuperSlot protocol supports up to four channels of wireless audio per slot.

An 8-Series mixer-recorder supplies power to the SL-2 and slotted-in receivers, so no external DC connector is needed. Analog or digital audio is sent from the receivers into the mixer-recorder via the expansion port, reducing messy cabling for power and audio connectivity. The SL-2 offers antenna distribution to slot-in receivers, spreading out the placement of antennas for better RF performance. The rear panel of the SL-2 is equipped with two TA3 connectors for an additional four inputs of AES3 audio and two 4-pin Hirose DC Outputs, each supplying up to 500 mA for powering additional equipment.

Firmware v6.00, available now from the Sound Devices website, is required to operate the SL-2. In addition to supporting the SL-2, version 6.00 introduces RF history for supported SuperSlot receivers mounted in an SL-2 or SL-6. The duration of the RF history is adjustable in 10 second increments, from 30 to 600 seconds. Other features and enhancements have also been added. 8-Series users may upgrade to v6.00 by visiting the Sound Devices Downloads Page.
