2. Recording Modes
The AWM28T offers three recording modes, switchable with a single touch on the receiver's LCD panel:
- Mono Mode: Ideal for single-person recordings, providing clear and natural sound.
- Stereo Mode: Suitable for two-person interviews or immersive soundscapes. Requires both transmitters to be active.
- Safety Track Mode: Records a secondary audio track at -6dB to prevent audio clipping in case of unexpected loud sounds.

3. AI Noise Cancellation
The system features an advanced AI noise cancellation algorithm that detects and reduces over 700,000 types of environmental noise by up to -40dB. This ensures clear vocals even in noisy environments. To activate or deactivate AI noise cancellation, refer to the receiver's LCD interface or the dedicated button on the transmitter (if available).
