Audio Communication Systems

Audio communication systems, or production comms or intercom, are the backbone of crew coordination in any live performance, broadcast or event production environment, enabling stage managers, lighting operators, sound engineers, directors and crew to communicate clearly and reliably throughout a show.

AC-ET supplies the full spectrum: wired party-line intercom systems, the industry-standard solution for theatre, broadcast and corporate AV, where belt packs daisy-chain via XLR cable from a central master station or power supply; wireless intercom systems for productions requiring freedom of movement across large venues or outdoor sites, operating on licence-free DECT or UHF frequencies; comms headsets in single and double-muff configurations for use in high-noise environments; master stations for centrally managing and monitoring all comms circuits; and power supplies for expanding wired systems across multiple circuits and users. Both analogue party-line and digital IP-based systems are available, with scalable configurations to suit everything from a two-person production to a large-scale touring or broadcast operation.

Whether you are specifying a simple two-way system for a small theatre or a multi-channel digital intercom network for a major touring production or broadcast facility, AC-ET's audio team can advise on the right system for your crew size, venue and workflow.
