Sooner or later in the life of every singer, the
time comes when you need to buy a rugged
stage microphone with that fabulous sound.
But that’s when you find yourself in a dilem-
ma: do you need a hardwire or a wireless
mic? A hardwire model is perfectly adequate
for the rehearsal room, where it is often
impossible to use a radio system due to the
small distances involved. On the other hand,
the benefits of a wireless microphone during
a live performance are obvious: no endlessly
long cables, and complete freedom of move-
ment. But this is hardly enough to make you
want to buy two microphones.
This problem is now a thing of the past
thanks to the revolutionary TM 40 transmit-
ter module. Depending on the situation, with
an easy adjustment you can use this micro-
phone with or without a cable.
It goes without saying that you can always
opt for the hardwire version to begin with if
your budget is limited. You can subsequently
upgrade to the wireless version at any time
without being annoyed about owning a hard-
wire mic you no longer need.
The TM 40 transmitter module is based on
the same technology as AKG’s extremely suc-
cessful WMS 40 range, which offers a genui-
ne plug & play system for up to six channels.
This ensures problem-free operation of all
optional accessories – from receiver to char-
ger – with your TM 40. A built-in on/mute/off
switch, clearly visible status LED, and input
gain control ensure unrivaled ease of use.
What microphone you will ultimately choose
depends only on your personal preference as
a performer: dynamic or condenser, cardioid
or supercardioid – every possible combina-
tion is available.

Status LED
Allows you to check the status of the
battery inside your transmitter. The
TM 40 will operate for about 8 hours off
a 1.5 V AAA size dry battery, and about
6 hours off a rechargeable battery.
When the status LED lights up red con-
tinuously, the battery will last about
another 50 minutes: recharging takes
an hour at most.
On/mute/off switch
With the mute function selected, only
the audio signal is muted: the supply
voltage and RF carrier frequency
remain switched on. This prevents
other transmitters from interfering
with the receiver although the micro-
phone is “switched off”.
Input gain control
Allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the
audio input on the TM 40.
Battery compartment
You can operate the microphone with either
dry or rechargeable batteries. Integrated
charging contacts in the bottom of the micro-
phone allow you to charge the battery without
removing it.
Battery charging made easy
Use the optional CU 40 charger to recharge the battery in the
battery compartment via the integrated contacts in the bottom
of the transmitter body. The battery is recharged within one
hour and can then be used for up to 6 hours. Battery charging
simply couldn’t be easier, faster, or more ecological!
