Five Simultaneous Talkers with a 2.0 System
The 2.0 series Digi-Wave System is limited to two simultaneous talkers within the wireless system. Now the Digi-Wave Dock can be used to
add three additional speakers for a total of five. This scenario is set up as one-way communication from the presenters to the audience.
In this example, a city council meeting has five council members that need to speak at any given time. The audience needs to hear all five
council members. Since all council members are sitting at the same table, they can hear each other speak, and do not require two-way
communication with each other. The system example here allows the audience to hear all five council members.
Note that many other configurations are possible to allow a free-floating transceiver for audience questions/comments - and in that case
this would have to be set up as a two-way communication system, with transceivers in the dock. A wireless microphone system could be
mixed into the dock if a wireless microphone system is available.
How it works:
This example takes advantage of the dock’s ability to mix input signals. By combining inputs at the first dock, the voices of Council
Members 2 & 3 (Group 2) are combined with the voices of Council Members 4 & 5 (Group 3), then combined with the voice of Council
Member 5 (Group 1). The combined audio from all groups is transmitted out to the audience on Group 1.
Required Equipment:
Two Digi-Wave docks, six DLTs (1 docked, 5 for talkers), two DLRs (both docked), one stereo RCA cable, one XLR cable, audience DLTs/
DLRs as required.
