Clean, Confident Wireless You Can Trust

A value-packed handheld system within the Audix Novacore ecosystem, the NCHEC includes an NCR1 receiver and an NCHH handheld transmitter with an NCEC cardioid capsule. The NCR1 melds world‑class radio technology with Audix’s clear, natural sound in a durable, all‑metal half‑rack chassis, while the NCHH handheld transmitter sports a feature-rich menu providing access to convenient tools for performers and engineers alike. With this system, you’ll experience top-caliber, 24-bit audio, along with ultra‑low system latency of less than 3ms and a high dynamic range of at least 116dB, ensuring clean, detailed sound for spoken presentations and musical vocal performances alike. Moreover, you get 50MHz of bandwidth, wideband UHF digital operation with a 48MHz tuning range, a high‑performance RF front end with outstanding image rejection, and AES‑256 encryption with fast IR synchronization and seamless pairing. On top of that, the NCEC capsule features proprietary VLM (Very Low Mass) technology, ensuring a natural, balanced sound, along with stellar transient response and bulletproof feedback resistance. Finally, the NCHEC runs on a battery system featuring a rechargeable lithium-ion battery and AA alkaline battery support, providing up to 16 hours of operation. Searching for a reliable, high-performance solution for professional live sound applications? The Audix NCHEC has you covered.

Audix Novacore: unified wireless for mission-critical applications

Novacore is a unified professional digital wireless platform built on the trusted Audix sound, melding 24‑bit digital audio, proprietary VLM (Very Low Mass) capsule technology, and ultra‑low, sub-3ms latency for clear, natural vocal intelligibility across demanding live applications. These systems boast wideband UHF digital transmission with a 48MHz tuning range, a high‑performance RF front end with outstanding image rejection, and AES‑256 encryption for reliable operation in crowded RF environments. At Sweetwater, we’re impressed by the modular and scalable nature of the Novacore ecosystem; it offers single-, dual-, and quad‑channel digital receivers with fast IR syncing, optional Dante network-audio integration, and tools for high-channel-density deployments. Within the Novacore line, you’ll find rugged handheld and bodypack transmitters with up to 16 hours of battery life, a range of extended cardioid and hypercardioid vocal capsules optimized for off‑axis rejection and low handling noise, and wireless MicroBoom solutions and retrofit kits for choir, ensemble, and theatrical use. Finally, the Novacore Frequency Coordinator provides you with real‑time visibility and RF insights, certifying confident monitoring, interference identification, and efficient multi‑system coordination.

Getting the most for the money isn't just a big deal for our customers, it's also what the artists and engineers at Sweetwater look for when we're shopping for our own gear. That's why we're such fans of Audix microphones. Early on, we discovered must-have Audix mics such as the handheld OM2, the tight and punchy D6 kick mic, and the super-versatile i5. You'll also find Audix specialty hardware like CabGrabbers and D-Vice mic holders in our studios and live rigs. Their drum mic bundles offer amazing value, while our house of worship customers love their MicroBoom line for miking choirs. No matter the application, Sweetwater is happy to recommend the right Audix gear for your needs.
