Shure SLX-D Wireless Microphone System Review

In today’s episode, we have a look at a new digital wireless microphone system from Shure - the SLX-D. This is a pro-level wireless system at an affordable entry price and which can expand as you need more channels. It is NOT mainly aimed at film production, with its 1/2 rack size receiver, but could be useful for studio and corporate video production which is my main source of income. Let’s dive in and take a closer look!
