BRIEF DESCRIPTION
MCR41/42 is a high performance microphone receiver suitable for broadcast and high
professional applications.
Thanks to Wisycom movable filter technology, MCR42 is able to work in a bandwidth up to 230
MHz, still keeping an exceptional selectivity and intermodulation immunity.
This miniature design allows to integrate a DUAL TRUE DIVERSITY receiver while keeping a small
size to fit camera slot in:
Ikegami/Panasonic (UNISLOT™)
Philips/Thomson/Grass Valley
Sony
Quad Pack & Six Pack
The audio receiver block is fully digital to allow a better quality, digital output and emulation of
most of companding chipsets. It supports also AES3 audio output with an overall sounds delay
below 1.5 msec.
MCR42 is designed to be:
“easy & quick to use” thanks to automatic setup functions (i.e. frequencies, squelch,
scan), remote configuration utilities (thru infrared), an OLED display with intuitive
context menu navigation.
“extremely flexible”, with an incredible frequency agility up to 230MHz. Moreover the
DSP board allows analogue and digital (AES3) output, with multi-companding
compatibilities and other digital features.
“best in class performances”, thanks to the latest Wisycom technology the unit has
extreme RF sensitivity and immunity and superb audio quality.
“a durable & upgradable investment”, thanks to the very robust design (aluminium
housing) and the possibility to upgrade/enhance units performances.
Moreover MCR42 system is already set up for the exclusive PTT function (remote command),
developed and patented by Wisycom and now appreciated in the broadcast world:
Simply pushing this button (PTT), the presenter causes the remote switching of the receiver’s
output-line, from the “main line” to the additional “intercom line”, in order to be able to talk “off-
air” directly with the technical team. Then all PTT’s MICs can be connected in pre-fading allowing a
clever intercom setup.

Above a schematic with an overview of main receiver functions.
For each antenna the RF signal is split in the receiver 1 and in the receiver 2 (antenna A and
antenna B) with a wide band splitter. In this way any one receiver could be tuned in any frequency
of the switching range (typ. 240 MHz).
Receiver 1 and 2 are diversity receivers: each one is made of two receivers tuned on the same
frequency, hereafter called section A and section B. The receiver 1 section A and the receiver 2
section A are connected to the antenna A, the receiver 1 section B and the receiver 2 section B are
connected at the antenna B.
Each receiver has its own demodulated signal and its own RSSI signal (Receiver Signal Strength
Indication); a DSP selects or combines signals from section A & B to have the best audio.
The demodulated signal flows to the digital audio processor.
the data sub carrier is digitally filtered to a very selective equivalent bandwidth (3Hz). Each filter
has its own data demodulator, one for medium speed data detection at the output of the first filter
and one at low speed data detection at the output of the second filter. All the two demodulators
are connected to the supervisor micro controller for the data battery detection and signalling.
Digital audio processor: the demodulated signal is filtered by an anti aliasing low pass filter and
then converted in the digital domain with a 96KHz 24bit audio A/D converter. The digital signal
processor (DSP), working in double precision, replicates all the analog functions with very high
accuracy, ultra low distortion and without typical analog problems like components tolerances or
long term drifts or temperature drifts etc. The high speed audio algorithms implemented in
assembler into the MCR42 maintains the audio delay at about 1.3 milliseconds, making it ideally
for live events and to keep audio delay as short as possible. The DSP unit also filters and
demodulates the data carrier and communicates all the parameters and informations to the
supervisor micro controller. The audio output goes to the digital outputs (AES3) or is converted in
the analog domain with a high quality 24 bits 96KHz D/A converter and an anti-aliasing filter.

Edit RX: Expander
MCR41/42 supports 4 different type of “Expanding systems”
(other on request)
ENR-Wisy: designed for maximum noise reduction
ENC-Wisy: designed for maximum audio fidelity (use this in
case of special vocal application or to remote
instruments)
ENR-1.2*/ENC-1.2*: to use MCR42 with some type of
camera (ex. Canon® C300, Canon® XF305, Sony®
Pmw200, Sony® Pmw300, Sony® PmwF5, Sony® Fs7,
Nikon® D600 or Nikon® D800, Canon® SD mark3...)
which accept a signal with reduced dynamic. This
type of expansion doesn't add artifacts to the signal
and allows to have a less noisy signal. It allows to
improve the quality of the audio registration
(compared to the ENR/ENC standard) increasing the
S/N ratio up to 15dB.
To use these expanders, it’s necessary to set ENR on
the transmitter and ENR 1.2 on the receiver or set
ENC on the transmitter and ENC 1.2 on the receiver.
ENR-1.2 it’s used for the optimization of noise, ENC-
1.2 it’s used to optimize the voice.
NB: The compander of the receiver must be the same as the
transmitter
MCR42 core is a power digital audio processor that, besides
an unbeatable audio quality and flexibility, can emulate
most expanders systems on the market. On this menu you
can setup the audio expanding chipset emulation. ENR is
emulating the Philips™ SA572 and PTT digital data of
Wisycom transmitters. Other setups can be loaded on
request.

Edit RX:Tone Squelch
MCR42 is able to detect a digital tone squelch generated by
a Wisycom transmitters (ex. MTH400/MTH300/MTP40/
MTP30).
Tone squelch ON: when the tone squelch is enabled the
audio is muted unless the correct carrier is detected. Tone
squelch allows to work with lower RF squelch, increasing the
coverage and the robustness especially in presence of digital
television carriers (DVB-T).
Tone squelch ADVanced: when tone squelch is in advanced
mode the receiver processes also PTT data (push to talk):
activating the command audio output when the button is
pressed on remote transmitter.
When tone squelch is off it is possible to choose where to
put the output between LINE and COM.
The COM column is present only using the Stand alone socket
BPA42-PTT
When tone squelch is set to ON it is possible to choose
where to put the output between LINE and COM.
The COM column is present only using the Stand alone socket
BPA42-PTT
When tone squelch is in advanced mode it is possible to
access a more complex audio matrix where to put the
output between LINE and COM and between PTT rel.
(released) and PTT psh (pushed)
Usually Line is always ticked and Com (PTT) is ticked on “PTT
push.” as additional return channel (intercom).
The COM column is present only using the BPA42-PTT
NOTE: With squelch and tone squelch the audio output is activate when:
Squelch OFF

Edit RX:Audio Out
In Audio Out it’s possible to set the maximum audio output.
For MCR42 with Hardware version ≥21, the max audio level
of the RX1/RX2 output can be set from -30dBu to -10 dBu (in
the first selection appears “MIC max lev”) and from -8dBu
to +12 dBu (in the first selection appears “LINE max lev”)
For MCR42 with Hardware version <21, the max audio level
of the RX1/RX2 output can be set from -18dBu to -12
dBu (“LINE max lev”)
The max audio level of the COM output can be set from -18
dBu to +12 dBu in one dB step.
The max audio level of the AES3 output can be set from -
30dBFS to 0dBFS in one dB step.
Edit RX: Sig. Phase
To change audio phase of 0 deg or 180 deg.
Edit RX: Scan
This function can be called also using the dedicated scan
button (push and keep). It allows to make a scan over a
desired frequency group.
MCR42 manages up to 2400 custom frequencies organized
in 40 groups of 60 channels each. This extreme flexibility
makes the scan function very flexible.
Once started a scan operation the receiver asks for group to
be used.
Then it prompts to turn off all transmitters.
Then finally start the scan!
After few seconds, scan results are displayed on a chart.

MCR41/MCR42 User Manual
17
Results can be also displayed sorted by level (pushing
together SYNC and SCAN buttons), making easier to pick up
the best one.
NOTE: As per Wisycom standard, group 00 and group 01 or 09 are special; respectively the “center
frequency” (474,482/... MHz) and the intergap frequency (i.e. 470/478/486/... MHz). A scan on
group 00 will reveal in few seconds the overall DVB-T occupation on the area, while a scan on group
0 or 09 will give possible working frequency, usable also in presence of strong DVB-T signal (sort to
speak working in the band-guard of 2 digital television channel).
Edit RX: Cal. tone
If Cal. tone is enabled, a calibration tone is transmitted from
the outputs of the receiver and the audio LED of the relative
RX become blue (to turn off the calibration tone, go on the
menu Advanced>RX and press EXIT)
It’s possible to select the audio level between -18dB and 0
dB.
The calibration tone at 0dB it’s used to generate a tone at
1KHz at the maximum output level (depending on the
MIC/LINE max level or COM max level set in the Audio out
menu). It represent the reference of the peak deviation
(56KHz).
LINE mode:
In LINE mode is settable the type of output between analog
and AES3 (digital).
NOTE: When LINE mode is set to AES3 the digital output
(Rx1+Rx2 in digital) is available on Rx1 output.

Headphones (only for BPA42-HPN)
Cycle through menu’s with up/down arrow to get your
desired configuration then confirm with SEL.
Volume: It is possible to set the desired output level from
Max (+6 dB) to min (-24 dB) in 1 dB step.
Balance: with this parameter it’s possible to balance the
delta of the volume between Left and Right on the
headphones (it’s possible to set up to 12dB between L/R).
For example: if volume is set to 0dB and Balance to R+4, in
the HP output, L will be -2dB and R will be 2dB.
RX mix: if the parameter RX sel is set to Rx1+Rx2(L+R), it’s
possible to balance the delta of the volume between RX1
and RX2 (it’s possible to set up to 12dB between RX1/RX2).
For example: if volume is set to 0dB, Rx signal to
Rx1+Rx2(L+R) and RX mix to Rx1+6, in the HP output, RX1
will be at 3dB and RX2 will be at -3dB.
RX sel: Left and right channel of stereo jack can be mapped
respectively on RX1, RX2 or on RX1+RX2.
Signal: If set to LINE, on the headphones there is the same
signal of the output LINE. If set to TSQ>LINE and the Tone
Squelch is enable (Tone Squelch ON or ADV), on the
headphones it is possible to hear the signal even when the
