Using the simultaneous interpretation

[G131511W]

I'm planning to hold a zoom meeting using the simultaneous interpretation function.

When there are three users like below,

A - Japanese speaker

B- English speaker

C- English speaker

When C selects the English interpretation audio, will C also be able to listen to B's audio clearly?

(A, B and C will each attend the meeting from different locations.)

I don;t know if you managed to figure this out as I see that you posted some time ago and I have been....busy so I have looked in here much.

Short answer is YES. C as the English speaker should select the English channel for Interpretation and stay there. When B the other English Speaker talks, his sound will be audible. When A the Japanese Speaker talks, the Interpreter's voice will be heard onto of the Japanese speaker's voice at a higher level.

I have a similar issue but with 3 different languages. My event will be available in 2 language channels: English and Spanish. However, I have a speaker will use Bahasa, but will then be simultaneously interpreted in English, which also needs to be simultaneously interpreted in Spanish. Can the Spanish translator listen only to the English simultaneous interpretation? Will the 2 interpreters be in separate channels? Thanks!

Ayi,

the way to set up the Interpreters is as follows:

1. The main floor language should be set to English, i.e. all the interpreters should have English as their first language i.e. English <==> Spanish and English<==>Bahasa
2. If you set it up like this, when the Spanish Interpreter selects the Spanish channel to interpret into, he will have the English channel to listen to. The Second booth will then be speaking on the English channel and listening to the floor.
3. This setup is a typical "Relay" configuration which allows for the following languages to be interpreted:
   1. English to Spanish and English to Bahasa
   2. Spanish to English and English to Bahasa
   3. Bahasa to English and English to Spanish

That should work for you 🙂

Good luck and let me know how it goes.
