How Does Silent Conference Work?
Instead of sending sound through speakers around the room, audio is transmitted directly to each delegate's wireless headphones. Presentations, keynote speakers, panel discussions and training sessions can all be heard clearly, without the volume of the room affecting the listening experience. It also gives event organisers much more flexibility with how a venue is used.
Multiple Sessions. One Venue.
This is where Silent Conference gets really interesting. With multiple audio channels, different sessions can run at the same time without competing with each other. Delegates simply select the channel for the session they want to attend. You could have a keynote on one channel, a breakout session on another and a workshop or presentation on the third. One room. Multiple sessions. No audio crossover.
Perfect for Breakout Sessions
Traditional breakout sessions can require separate rooms, extra speakers and a lot of movement between spaces.
With wireless headphones, you can create separate audio zones within the same venue. Delegates can move between sessions and simply switch channels when it's time for the next presentation. That can make better use of your event space and make the whole experience easier to manage.
What About Q&A?
No problem. Presenters can use a wireless microphone, allowing their voice to be transmitted directly to the audience headphones. For panel discussions and Q&A sessions, microphones can be passed between speakers or used by the moderator, keeping everything clear and easy to follow.
No Need to Turn the Room Up
Large rooms, outdoor spaces and busy venues can make traditional audio challenging. With the audio delivered directly to each delegate, everyone can hear clearly without simply turning the volume up for the entire room and because delegates control their own listening level, everyone can find a comfortable volume.
More Flexible Event Spaces
Silent Conference isn't limited to traditional conference rooms. It can work in exhibition halls, hotels, outdoor spaces, temporary event venues and unconventional locations where traditional sound systems can be difficult to manage. That flexibility means you're not always restricted by the acoustics or layout of the venue.
