Audix NCBP Novacore UHF Digital Bodypack Transmitter

About: Audix NCBP Novacore UHF Digital Bodypack Transmitter

The AUDIX Novacore NCBP is a compact, professional-grade UHF digital bodypack transmitter designed for clergy, performers, presenters, broadcast talent, and anyone requiring discreet hands-free wireless operation. Its ABS and aluminum construction houses a TA3M (3-pin mini) mic input compatible with AUDIX lavalier and headset microphones — including the ADX10, L5, L5O, HT5, HT7B3P, and HT7BG3P — as well as any third-party mic terminated with a TA3F connector (Pin 2 hot). 

• TA3M mic input compatible with AUDIX ADX10, L5, L5O, HT5, HT7B3P, HT7BG3P, and any TA3F-terminated mic
• Dedicated 3.5 mm remote mute input for latching or momentary external switch (not included)
• AES-256 encryption with one-touch IR sync; 48 MHz tuning range (494–542 MHz); <3 ms latency
• Variable input gain (–12 to +18 dB in 6 dB steps), low-cut filter, limiter, and phase invert
• 9+ hour runtime on 2x AA alkaline or 1x NCLB rechargeable lithium-ion; USB-C charging built in

AES-256 encrypted digital transmission is synchronized to the receiver via one-touch IR sync. All controls — power button, mute button, and SET/MODE buttons — are located on the exterior of the unit for easy access. A dedicated 3.5 mm TRS remote mute input accepts a latching or momentary external switch (not included) for hardwired mute control, making the NCBP well suited for podium installations and theatrical applications where the operator controls muting from front-of-house. 

The NCBP operates on 2x AA alkaline batteries or 1x NCLB rechargeable lithium-ion battery with 9+ hours of runtime. A built-in USB-C port supports direct cable charging, and the optional NCC2 charging station enables managed multi-unit charging for venues with high weekly usage. Sold as body only; a bundle with AUDIX ADX10 lavalier microphone is available as NCBP+ADX10.
