UK - Clear-Com’s IP Transceivers are rapidly gaining traction in the professional theatre world, being deployed for some of the most ambitious productions across London’s West End, Broadway, and international touring circuits. From Stranger Things: The First Shadow, Back to the Future, and MJ the Musical in London, to Shucked and & Juliet on US tours, major sound designers and technical teams are turning to Clear-Com.
At the heart of this growing adoption is the capability to support up to 10 FreeSpeak II digital wireless beltpacks per IP Transceiver.
“IP Transceivers are now our preferred transceiver for Arcadia Central Station,” said Russell Godwin of Gareth Owen Sound. The company supports an array of top-tier productions and plays a significant role in shaping technology expectations in the industry.
The ability to deploy transceivers over standard IP networks, rather than specialised cabling, is a significant benefit for theatres that need to scale quickly during tech rehearsals or adapt to unique venue layouts.
“As the industry adopts more IP-native workflows, we’re seeing a strong movement toward tools that are not only flexible, but intuitive to scale,” said Ben Turnwell, Clear-Com’s regional sales manager for the UK, Ireland, and Israel. “The 10-beltpack-per-transceiver spec has been a key selling point for West End theatrical productions in London. We want to make sure everyone understands this system is just as capable, if not more, than anything else on the market.”
