It is important to note that a new microphone cover is given to each rider (and pillion as required) at the start of every tour for hygiene purposes.
The key features of this system are:
- Voice-activated (VOX) communication - this system reacts within one millisecond of speech commencing thereby ensuring all speech is captured.
The VOX system ensures that microphones are switched off when not in use and, coupled with the noise reduction and filtration technology, results in zero interference.
- Independently adjustable rider and passenger microphone volume levels.
This ensures that rider/passenger communication is as easy as being face-to-face.
- Any MP3 player, such as an iPod, can be connected to the control module via a standard headphone output lead. The music player can be kept safely in a jacket pocket for easy access.
Communication is still possible as the system instantaneously reduces the music volume to 50% when speech commences and returns to normal volume when speech ends.
