Abstract

Wireless microphone systems are used, for example, in theater, stage performances, television, broadcast radio or in concerts to amplify voices or instruments for a large audience. Due to the plurality of actors or musicians, a corresponding number of audio channels is required to transmit the audio information. 20 to 50 audio channels can thus be required in a parallel mode even in common applications. The invention relates to a network system (1) for audio equipment (4) having a plurality of base stations (3) and having a plurality of microphone modules (4) wherein the microphone modules (4) are and/or can be allocated to the base stations (3) via configuration data and wherein each microphone module (4) of a microphone-module-base-station allocation is designed to transmit audio information on a transmitting frequency F1, F2, F3, F4, FX, FY to the allocated base station (3) of the same microphone-module-base-station allocation, wherein the base stations (3) are networked to one another such that the configuration data are interchangeable, having a control device (2), wherein the control device (2) is designed in respect of programming technology and/or circuit technology to auto…
