Equipment

Conference microphone and discussion system rental

Delegate microphones and Bosch discussion systems for board meetings, assemblies, roundtables, and multilingual conferences, so every participant can speak, be heard, and be interpreted. From our own inventory, installed and run by our technicians.

How it works

What a discussion system does

At a roundtable or assembly, every participant needs a microphone, and the chair needs control of who speaks. A discussion system gives each seat its own device with a microphone and a request-to-speak button, connected to a central unit that manages the floor.

For multilingual meetings, the same system feeds clean audio from every microphone to the interpreters, so they hear each speaker clearly. Participants can follow the interpretation and ask questions that interpreters carry in both directions.

Systems

Discussion systems and conference microphones

We configure each meeting from Bosch devices in our inventory. Every product has its own page with manufacturer details.

Microphones for every seat and speaker

Short and long stem microphones in cardioid and wide-cardioid versions, such as the DCNM-MICLC, and the discreet High Directive Microphone (DCNM-HDMIC). For podiums and presenters, lapel, hand-held, and headset microphones.

Meeting formats

Which meetings need a discussion system

Board and delegate meetings

Every member speaks from their seat, the chair manages the floor, and interpreters hear each speaker on a clean feed.

General assemblies and votes

Members request to speak and vote from their seats, and the result is counted by the system.

Roundtables and ministerial meetings

Small, formal sessions where every participant has a microphone and the discussion is interpreted in both directions.

Trainings with questions

Participants ask questions all day; discussion microphones make sure interpreters and the room hear every one.

Press conferences

Journalists ask questions from the floor through microphones that feed the interpreters.

Planning

What to tell us when you plan

  • The number of seats that need a microphone, and whether two delegates can share a unit.
  • Who controls the floor: a chair, a moderator, or open discussion.
  • Languages and whether participants choose a language at their seat or on a receiver.
  • Voting or name displays, if the meeting needs them.
  • The room layout: hollow square, U-shape, classroom, or plenary.
  • Recording or streaming needs.

Installed and run by our technicians

Our technicians deliver the system, cable and test every seat, connect it to the interpretation booths and the venue's sound, and stay for every session. Rental systems come from our own inventory, with spares.
