Copyright 2015, v1.1 Samson Technologies Introduction Samson’s Stage XPD1 USB Digital Wireless System brings the convenience of wireless to your computer recordings and beyond. With a wireless receiver built into a USB stick and a belt pack transmitter, with a lavelier or headset microphone, the Stage XPD1 allows you to wirelessly record stunning audio straight to your Mac/PC and favorite digital audio software. It’s the ideal wireless system for presentations, podcasting, YouTube performances, karaoke video games, voice over projects and much more. The Stage XPD1 operates in the license-free 2.4GHz frequency band, which is free from interference caused by television stations and other white space broadcast devices. The included microphone is designed to provide exceptional sound reproduction for spoken word presentations, as well as singing applications and more. The Stage XPD1 system is extremely fast and easy to setup. With the receiver connected to your computer via USB and the mic transmitter turned on, simply press the Pair button on the receiver and you’re set. The Stage XPD1’s 100’ operating range (environment dependent) between receiver and transmitter provides users with plenty of room to work wirelessly. In addition the Stage XPD1 is the perfect accessory for expanding the Samson Expedition Series Portable PA Systems. Via their USB Wireless ports, these Expedition PAs can be connected with the Stage XPD1 for full range wireless capability in live applications.

Note: When using the Stage XPD1 wireless system with a computer, you must set the computer’s audio input device to “Samson RXD Wireless Receiver”. In most computer operating systems, an audio software must be used to record or monitor the audio from the USB receiver. 2. Place a fresh set of AA (LR6) batteries in the transmitter battery holder, taking care to observe the polarity markings. 3. Turn the wireless level knob on the audio device completely counterclockwise, then turn the power of the audio device to the ON position. 4.

Speak or sing into the microphone at a normal performance level and raise the wireless level control until the desired level is reached. For best signal-to-noise operation, set the input Gain control as high as possible without overloading. 7. If you hear distortion turn down the wireless level on the audio device. If distortion is still audible, use the supplied plastic screwdriver to turn the Gain control in the PXD1 transmitter slowly counterclockwise until the distortion disappears. 8. Conversely, if you hear a weak, noisy signal at the desired volume level and with the wireless level control of the audio device is set to maximum, use the supplied plastic screwdriver to turn the Gain control in the PXD1 transmitter slowly clockwise until the signal reaches an acceptable level. Using the Stage XPD1 in Wireless Environments • The device that the Stage XPD1 receiver is connected should be placed at least 15’ from a wireless router. • Range can decrease in the presence of a strong 2.4GHz wireless network. • Range can decrease in the presence of many Bluetooth devices. • Re-pair the transmitter and receiver if you are experiencing dropouts or a reduction of the overall range.
