Plus-size upgrade for Shure wireless
Posted on Mar 13, 2026 by Pro Moviemaker
Shure has upgraded its SLX-D wireless mic range with the SLX-D+ system, bringing more flexibility and remote control in demanding environments
The new SLX-D+ system has wide tuning across all components, with up to 138MHz of bandwidth. This means faster deployment, easier frequency coordination on location and less need to carry multiple systems when travelling to new regions.
A key upgrade is the Showlink Ease, adapted from Shure’s flagship Axient Digital systems. Once paired, transmitters reconnect to receivers every time they power on, allowing remote RF set-up and parameter changes. For busy sets or ENG work, this removes the need to access talent to adjust settings mid-shoot.
The automatic interference management increases reliability as the system can detect RF issues and seamlessly switch to a clean frequency without interrupting audio. AES-256 encryption ensures secure transmission, while newly integrated digital feedback reduction (DFR) helps maintain clear, intelligible sound in unpredictable acoustic spaces.
For mobile crews, SLX-D+ adds Bluetooth connectivity for the first time in the range, enabling on-the-go monitoring and control via the Wireless Workbench Mobile app.
Users can check battery status, manage gain, scan frequencies and adjust settings remotely.
Backwards compatibility with existing SLX-D components, along with new dual receivers, make SLX-D+ a scalable upgrade path. Prices have not yet been confirmed.
