The new pouches have been designed in collaboration with Sennheiser UK’s Technical Applications Engineer – Pro Audio, Marcus Blight, making them perfect for use with Sennheiser ranges.

URSA recently introduced the full range of URSA products to Live Industry Professionals at PLASA London 2025. Following on from the launch of the Performance Pouches, URSA unveils now further products in the Live Range, including the Spectera compatible Live Pouch.

Sennheiser Spectera is the world’s first wideband bidirectional digital wireless ecosystem. From a single device, performers can now send and receive audio, removing the need for separate transmitters and IEM receivers. This innovation means that the bodypack has multiple connections, with a headphone jack and microphone 3-pin Lemo connector, plus a volume dial and single antenna.

UK based designer and manufacturer of solutions for body worn tech URSA, founded in 2015 by partners Costume Designer, Laura K Smith and Sound Recordist, Simon Bysshe, decided to design Spectera compatible Live Pouches, so in collaboration with industry professionals, including Sennheiser UK’s Technical Applications Engineer – Pro Audio, Marcus Blight, they set to create the new solutions, making them perfect for use with Sennheiser ranges.

Working together, with advice from Blight, URSA founders Simon Bysshe and Laura Smith developed a pouch that could easily accommodate these features, ensuring that everything the performers and engineers needed would be easily accessible. In typical theatrical fashion, there have also been a variety of unexpected applications for the pouches and belts, including their use for blood-packs and even for the quick creation of reverse-radios, or onstage wireless loudspeaker rigs.

The URSA Spectera pouch is made from URSA’s signature fabric and features an off-centre strap that holds the bodypack securely in place. This strap also features a perfectly sized aperture to snugly fit the volume control, but spin the pack 180 degrees and that strap can also be secured over the microphone’s Lemo connection, offering additional security and strain relief.

The loop in the rear of the pouch features URSA’s familiar low-profile brass poppers, so it can be easily and quickly secured to a belt, guitar strap, or even the handle of a mixing console flight case.

The manufacturing process has been rewarding for the teams of both companies, as Blight concludes.

“The URSA Performance Pouch range meets an often-overlooked demand with products that are full of useful features,” he says. “The adjusted position of the Velcro tab is a great example of this; it’s a small change that had made a big difference. Working with URSA has been great. Collaboration is very important to us at Sennheiser and getting to chat through ideas with Simon and the team has been very interesting.”

This innovative pouch is exactly what engineers have come to expect from URSA products, complementing URSA’s existing lines and building on ten years of experience in discreet body-worn equipment placement. Pouches are available to purchase online directly from URSA’s updated website, alongside the full URSA range of belts, pouches and garments.
