Microphones 

 

Every Communicator keypad features an in-built microphone, ensuring all audience members are given an equal opportunity to speak at events.

 

Audience members wishing to speak simply press the activation button on their Communicator keypad and speak into it in the same way as they would use a mobile phone.

 

The microphone system operates on a first come, first served basis. This means that 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.

 

Microphones can be deactivated at any stage, allowing you greater control over live discussions and Q&A sessions.

 

Operating the microphone

 

The microphone system operates two modes of use: Latch mode and Press to Talk mode.

 

Latch mode

 

Participants press the activation button on their Communicator to open their microphone and then press it again to close it after they have finished speaking.

 

Press to Talk mode

 

Participants press the activation button to open the microphone and keep the button pressed down whilst they are speaking. The microphone automatically closes when the participant releases their finger.
