We already set up some tests with our professional interpreters. Location Brussels (Belgium)
We also noticed the volume-automatism, it seems good. The audio quality is super.
Some feedback:
- making it possible to change your channel as end user during the meeting, not having to reconnect to change
- making it possible for the translators to switch their interpretation direction (f.e. FR->NL to NL->FR) with simple button clicks
Next days we are setting up our rooms (with translator boots) for hybrid setup with this system with system accounts.
We waited long for this feature, it is already great and easy for end users internal & external!

Hi Steven10
Did you say that you are seeing the audio of the other participant drop when the translator is speaking ("Audio Ducking")? As in our tests, we are not seeing that.
No volume changes, the translator is a little higher than everyone else, but you can very clearly hear both and a little too much. So you hear the translator and the patricipant at similar volumes and it is just hard to follow a meeting like this. It just sounds like two participants talking over eachother. If you are seeing the volume of the other participants duck lower when the translator speaks and then retrun to normal when they stop, I would be interested to hear?
