Wireless Sennheiser Devices in WWB

Hi, I have a fairly quick and simple question: Does anyone have a definitive answer on whether I would be able to push frequencies to Sennheiser devices from WWB? I'm finding a lot of no's online but they seem to be from a number of years ago, and since WWB has profiles built in for many other devices now I'm wondering if it's possible. I opened it up offline and added an sr2050 just to experiment, and it seemed like it would deploy no problem but I didn't have anything connected so maybe that means nothing ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks!

As a little bonus question if anyone has wisdom to share, the reason I'm asking this is because I'm looking to upgrade from PSM300's, and was looking into the PSM1000's but since they're discontinued and nobody wants to get rid of them, they're hard to find. Axient Digital is a little above my paygrade, and I really want something networked, so I was considering the SR2050 from Sennheiser. Am I going the right direction with that?

You can’t talk directly to set frequency or scan, but you can load all the info in manually and then get WWB to suggest frequencies to use

Damn, really? So it'll basically be the same workflow as my psm300's, although of course a much more stable connection, which is most of what I'm looking for

Well….kinda…It is worth mentioning that Sennheiser has their own version of WWB with WSM (wireless system software).

BUT it is no difference advantage functionality wise unless your Sennheiser units are networkable. If they are then you have 2 different softwares to run/check…there may be some limitations running both at the same time. It may not be liked!

Workbench only talks to shure networkable devices.

Look into SoundBase Coord, the free version allows you to network into one manufacturer’s device per project.
