What's included

What you get

  • A microphone at every seat

    Gooseneck or boundary microphones at each dais position, so every member is heard without leaning in.

  • Automatic mixing

    A processor turns on the microphone of whoever is speaking and keeps the rest down, so there's no feedback or room noise.

  • Speakers for the public

    Speakers placed so the public gallery hears clearly, without feeding back into the dais microphones.

  • Recording and streaming

    Cameras and audio feeds for meeting recordings and live streams, so residents can follow along from home.

  • Hearing assistance

    An assistive listening system for people who need it, fed from the same audio system.

  • Easy for staff

    Simple controls that a clerk or staff member can run for every meeting, with training at handover.

Public meetings should be easy to follow

When residents can’t hear what’s said at a public meeting, in the room or on the stream, trust suffers. Most chambers weren’t built with sound in mind, and older systems struggle to keep up with livestreaming.

We design chamber systems around clear speech: a microphone at every seat, automatic mixing so only the person speaking is live, speakers that reach the public gallery evenly, and clean feeds for recording and streaming.

Built for staff, not technicians

Your clerk or staff should be able to run every meeting. We keep the controls simple, program the system for how your meetings run, and train your team at handover. For more detail, read our guide: Clear Speech in Council Chambers.

FAQ

Common questions

Why is speech so hard to hear in our chamber?

Council chambers often have hard walls, high ceilings and a lot of glass, so sound bounces around. The fix is usually a microphone at every seat, automatic mixing and speakers spread along the room instead of one loud pair at the front.

Can we stream and record our meetings?

Yes. We can add cameras and send clean audio and video to your streaming platform and recordings, so residents can watch live or later.

Do we need assistive listening?

Public meeting rooms generally need an assistive listening system under the ADA. We can install one that takes its feed from the same audio system.

Is there more detail on how this works?

Yes. Our guide, Clear Speech in Council Chambers, covers microphones, processing, speakers and hearing assistance in more depth.
