NILES, IL, July 26, 2018 — Shure today announced expanded integration between its Axient Digital wireless microphone systems and Yamaha CL and QL series mixing consoles. Yamaha’s latest firmware update will allow sound engineers to monitor and control key features of the AD4D and AD4Q digital wireless receivers.

“Our engineering teams have been collaborating for several years now,” said Rob Fuhlbrugge, Senior Director of Engineering and Product Development at Shure. “We share a common goal of enhancing the capabilities and interoperability of our products for the benefit of our customers who rely on them. This latest firmware version from Yamaha will allow the wireless monitoring and control of Axient Digital. Shure and Yamaha engineers have collaborated on the best way to present the information from Axient Digital to the Engineer operating the console, in addition to collaboratively testing the system to ensure maximum reliability.”
