Sennheiser introduces Profile Wireless 1-channel mic and releases 32-bit float firmware update
By Editor_wr On May 16, 2025
Sennheiser today announced a one-channel version of its Profile Wireless 2.4 GHz all-in-one microphone solution. The streamlined single-mic system comes in a compact bag and includes a second USB charging cable instead of the charging bar of the two-channel version launched in late 2024. Designed to be lightweight and ultra-portable, the one-channel version covers typical usage scenarios of solo creators, while allowing for later expansion of the system by including the same two-channel receiver as the Profile Wireless 2-channel system. Also, a 32-bit float firmware update for all Profile Wireless systems is available for download on the Sennheiser website from today. The Profile Wireless 1-channel mic system includes a clip-on mic with mini windshield and magnetic mount, a two-channel receiver, two USB cables, USB-C and Lightning adapters, a camera cable and a shoe mount adapter
Streamlined one-channel version
'Following the huge success of the Profile Wireless 2-channel system, we're now catering to the solo creator, who does not require the full two-channel package but would rather like to save on weight and cost and still have Sennheiser audio quality,' says Hendrik Millauer, Product Manager Broadcast & Film at Sennheiser. 'Profile Wireless 1-channel is also ideal for the casual user looking for a wireless mic to hook up to their laptop, for example.' Profile Wireless 1-channel is also an ideal solution for users looking for a wireless mic for their laptop
Just like the two-channel version, the solo system is quick and easy to set up – no app required. It can be used on cameras, with smartphones and computers, and can be combined with an external lavalier microphone or even used to create a wireless boom. The mic has an operating time of up to seven hours, and 16 GB of memory for up to 30 hours of internal recording. Profile Wireless can also be used to create a wireless boom, here in combination with an MKE 400 mini-shotgun mic
The Profile Wireless 1-channel mic system comes in a rugged pouch that includes the clip-on microphone with mini windshield and magnetic mount, a two-channel receiver, two USB cables, USB-C and Lightning adapters, a camera cable and a shoe mount adapter. As all Profile Wirelesss components can also be bought separately, nothing stands in the way of expanding the system to two channels at a later point in time.
32-bit float update for Profile Wireless
'With the latest Profile Wireless firmware update, we're addressing user requests for a 32-bit float functionality,' says Millauer. 'This will allow creators to record with extremely high dynamic range, and help them to recover clipped audio.'
For 32-bit float recording, Profile Wireless combines the audio signals of the two A/D converters inside the Profile Wireless mics to create a single 32-bit float audio stream.
Creators who prefer 24-bit recording due to its lower memory requirement still have the option to deactivate 32-bit float recording and turn on the Safety Channel Mode. This will output a -6dB version of the audio in addition to the original sound level and thus help protect against clipping.
To update their Profile Wireless system to firmware version V4.1.0, creators are asked to visit www.sennheiser.com/profilewireless . Under Downloads, they will find various firmware updates for Mac and PC, with a smart tool guiding them through the update process for the receiver and transmitter(s). Please note that the first batches of the Profile Wireless 1-channel mic also need to be updated to firmware version V4.1.0.
Millauer concludes, 'With the addition of the one-channel system and 32-bit float recording, Profile Wireless becomes the most versatile tool for creators who value excellent sound and see it as a key differentiator for quality content.'
The Profile Wireless 1-channel mic is available from today and retails at EUR 199 (MSRP), USD 199 (MAP), or GBP 169 (MSRP).

Sennheiser Generates €492.3 Million In Sales In 2024
The Sennheiser Group, the family-owned company behind renowned audio technology, reported sales of EUR 492.3 million in fiscal year 2024. Despite volatile market conditions, the company was able to consolidate its position in the professional audio market and drive forward key future projects with innovative solutions and strategic investments. Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) amounted to €35.8 million. '2024 was a challenging year for us, as it was for many companies in our industry,' explains Co-CEO Andreas Sennheiser. The company recorded a slight decline in sales across all regions, totaling 6.6 percent compared to the previous year. 'But especially in a dynamic environment, it is crucial to remain a reliable partner.' Co-CEO Daniel Sennheiser adds: 'That's exactly what sets us apart: with reliable audio solutions, intuitive innovations, and a stable supply chain, we enable our customers to focus on what matters most.' The development of the individual sales markets varied greatly in the past year: The EMEA region was once again the strongest market in terms of sales, generating total sales of €232.1 million – a slight decline of 3.5 percent compared to the previous year. The domestic market in Germany, on the other hand, saw a slight growth of 3.5 percent. The AMERICAS region recorded a decline of 16.1 percent to EUR 150.5 million. Political and economic uncertainties in the US and a subdued consumer climate had a particularly negative impact on demand here. By contrast, the APAC region performed well: growth of 2.3 percent to EUR 109.7 million – driven by a strong market in China and new sales channels in India – enabled a stable result to be achieved. 'Our global presence really pays off in turbulent times,' explains Daniel Sennheiser. 'It allows us to respond to market developments in a differentiated manner and address them in a targeted way, for example with investments and partnerships tailored to local needs. With our regional teams, we remain close to our customers at all times and can offer them the right solutions.' In 2024, the Sennheiser Group invested a total of 48.9 million euros – around 10 percent of total sales – in research and development and in the expansion of sustainable business processes. An additional 3.1 million euros was invested in digital transformation: new backend systems and an expanded cloud architecture form the basis for the implementation of digital business models. Sennheiser invested a further 13.7 million euros in its own production sites in Germany and Romania, 12.2 million euros of which went to the plant in Wedemark near Hanover. In the Business Communication segment, the portfolio was also expanded with the new TeamConnect Collaboration Bars, which were developed specifically for hybrid meeting and learning environments. The Neumann brand enjoyed strong success in the professional recording applications segment. New product developments and the integration of advanced technologies from Merging Technologies, a leading Swiss provider of high-resolution digital audio recording systems and a pioneer in audio-over-IP, which was acquired in 2022, contributed significantly to this success. Sennheiser has also further strengthened its market presence in the mobility sector. More than 70,000 audio systems are now installed in vehicles from Cupra, smart, and Morgan Motors. A particular milestone was the launch of a smart model featuring Sennheiser technology for the Chinese market in the third quarter of 2024. In addition, the licensing business generated additional revenue. This area is set to be expanded further in the future, particularly through the immersive audio brand AMBEO. AMBEO technology is used in all business areas—on stage, in meeting rooms, in studios, and in vehicles—and will continue to open up new potential in the licensing business in the future. 80 years of Sennheiser – looking to the future In 2025, the independent family-owned company Sennheiser celebrates 80 years of pioneering audio technology and passionate engineering. Since the founding of the 'Laboratorium Wennebostel' by Dr. Ing. Fritz Sennheiser in June 1945 in Wedemark near Hanover, Sennheiser has developed into one of the world's leading providers of audio technology. 'We live and breathe audio in everything we do,' says Daniel Sennheiser. 'Our passion is to create unique sound experiences: real, unadulterated sound that you not only hear, but also feel.' Dr. Andreas Sennheiser adds: 'When we look back on our history today, it's not just about the number of years – it's about what we have learned from the past to build the future of the audio world.'
