About this model
Professional wireless systems should let performers concentrate on the audience instead of the technology. The Audix Novacore NC2HEC dual-channel handheld wireless system was created to provide a complete solution for vocalists, presenters and worship leaders who demand dependable performance from the moment they step on stage. Pairing the NCR2 dual-channel receiver with two NCHH handheld transmitters and two NCEC extended cardioid capsules, it delivers natural vocal reproduction, low-latency digital audio and AES-256 encrypted wireless transmission in one integrated package. From live music venues and houses of worship to corporate presentations and broadcast productions, the NC2HEC provides the clarity, flexibility and reliability required for professional handheld wireless applications. Complete Dual-Channel Handheld System Simplifies Setup The NC2HEC includes everything needed to deploy two professional handheld wireless channels in a single package. Each NCHH transmitter pairs quickly with the NCR2 receiver using one-touch infrared synchronization, while onboard frequency scanning identifies clean operating channels across the system's 48MHz UHF tuning range. Digital diversity reception supports stable operation in demanding RF environments, and the Novacore platform accommodates up to 24 simultaneous wireless systems per frequency band for larger productions. Detachable BNC antennas, USB-C charging cables and a universal power supply complete a package prepared for professional use. Extended Cardioid Capsules Deliver Natural Vocal Clarity Each included NCEC capsule was engineered to provide consistent vocal tone across a wide range of working distances, allowing performers to move naturally without significant changes in sound. Audix's proprietary Very Low Mass (VLM) diaphragm technology delivers fast transient response, capturing vocal detail, articulation and presence with impressive accuracy. The extended cardioid pickup pattern offers strong off-axis rejection while maintaining predictable tonal balance, making the system well suited for lead vocalists, presenters and worship leaders who require dependable feedback control. The interchangeable capsule design also allows users to swap to compatible Novacore capsule options without tools as performance needs evolve. Secure Digital Audio Maintains Professional Performance The NCR2 receiver processes audio at 24-bit/44.1kHz resolution with greater than 110dB of dynamic range, preserving natural vocal detail across both wireless channels. Latency remains below 3 ms for seamless live performance, while AES-256 encryption protects every transmission for corporate, government and broadcast environments where secure communication is essential. Digital diversity reception and excellent RF rejection support dependable operation in increasingly crowded wireless environments, helping engineers maintain reliable audio throughout every event. Built to Grow With Your Wireless System Each NCHH handheld transmitter operates for more than nine hours using either two AA batteries or an optional rechargeable NCLB lithium-ion battery pack, with convenient USB-C charging built directly into the transmitter body. The modular Novacore platform allows additional receivers, transmitters and interchangeable microphone capsules to be added as channel counts and production requirements increase. This scalable architecture helps protect your investment while maintaining a consistent workflow across expanding wireless systems. Professional Connectivity for Modern Productions Balanced XLR outputs provide straightforward integration with traditional analog consoles, while integrated Dante/AES67 networking routes both wireless channels through a single Ethernet connection for streamlined digital audio workflows. Front-panel LCD displays provide continuous monitoring of RF and audio levels, battery status, diversity operation and transmitter information, while a dedicated headphone output supports direct channel monitoring during setup and operation. Combining premium vocal performance with advanced digital wireless technology, the Audix Novacore NC2HEC dual-channel handheld wireless system provides a complete solution for demanding live sound, worship, corporate and broadcast applications.
