Every Communicator keypad has a built-in microphone, giving all audience members an equal opportunity to speak at events.
Operating the microphone
Audience members wanting to speak simply press the activation button on their keypad and hold it up to their ear in the same way they would talk on a mobile phone.
When the speaker releases their finger, their microphone automatically shuts-off.
Alternatively, microphones can be set to a different mode, where participants press the activation button to open their microphone and press it again to close it after they’ve spoken.
A fairer system
The microphone system operates on a first come, first served basis - the first participant to press the activation button will be the first to speak.
When an audience member is speaking, all other microphones are deactivated to prevent interruption from other participants.
Take control of your Q&A
Microphones can be deactivated at any stage, giving you greater control over live discussions and Q&A sessions.
Benefits of the Microphone system
Save time and money
The Communicator gives every audience member instant access to their own personal microphone, negating the need for hostesses with roving microphones. The system also speeds-up Q&A sessions, as participants don’t have to wait for a microphone to reach them.
Added value
Only the Communicator can combine audio with instant voting and text messaging, enabling you to see how the rest of your audience feels about opinions and subjects raised over the microphone.
Easy integration
The Communicator base station links directly to any Personal Audio system.
