Intercom Systems for boom and cam ops with remote PTT options

Recommended Posts

For an upcoming doc shoot for a choir rehersal that includes some duets, I am looking for a system that has the option for a wireless finger/camera rig/boom mounted PTT talk button and t(r)rs output to common headphone/IEM solutions. There will be 2 cams and 2 booms operated by humans that need to communicate. The boom ppl are monitoring sound with in ears or headphones and TR(R)S connectors + adaptors. All operators need a wireless PTT button, either via BT or some other tech, but it'll probably boil down to BT.

I have looked around before for a 2 boom situation doc project, but results where indifferent with companies I've never heard of with long delivery times from China.

Looking forward to ideas with thnx in adavance

I had good results using Unity Intercom.

Easy to operate as it is based on iOS or Android devices.

You’ll have to setup a local base station and a wifi router, but it can also work via their cloud server with 4G. 

The PTT can be triggered by a Bluetooth button.

You can download a 14 days trial version and there are many explanations on their website.
