Additional Photos:
Samson's Concert 88 Camera Handheld is a professional wireless system that brings exceptional audio quality to your film and video productions. Designed to accomodate a wide range of filming applications, the system includes a handheld microphone transmitter that features a Q8 unidirectional dynamic mic element. Featuring 16 selectable frequencies over a 25 MHz bandwidth, Concert 88 Camera provides reliable, interference-free performance in any location.
Batteries Included
For maximum convenience, the receiver offers 12 hours of battery life from a single removable lithium ion rechargeable battery. Two batteries are included to allow for quick changes so you can limit downtime when the battery level is low. The low profile CR88V receiver can mount directly on to any camera with a cold shoe mount or clip on a shoulder strap. A headphone output with an independent level control offers the ability to monitor the received signal without affecting the receiver's output signal. The system includes 1/8" and XLR output cables to work with a wide range of cameras.
Ultra-Reliable UHF
With a best-in-class 300' wireless range, the Concert 88 Camera operates within the reliable UHF frequency band. This avoids interference from wireless routers and other handheld devices. The 16 selectable frequency options allow for multi-location shoots, while tone key and an auto mute circuit silents the receiver's output when the transmitter is powered off or out of range.
Q8 Handheld Mic
Audio reaches the CR88V Micro Wireless Receiver receiver via the CH88 Handheld Transmitter. The CH88 features the Samson Q8 unidirectional dynamic microphone which is designed to capture clean and intelligible speech. Offering eight hours of battery life using two AA batteries (not included), the CB88 transmitter features a variable Gain control, as well as one-touch Mute button.

Q & A

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
