Line Level 3.5mm output

The jack will look something like the one in this picture, though it will be placed in different places depending on the building. It could be on the podium, under the clerk's desk, or behind the sacrament table for instance.

Equipment List

[1] Line out splitter

Optional. Allows the line out 3.5mm jack to be used by both Zoom and the interpreter web application.

[2 A] Wired Setup

This setup is for hardwired configurations, rather than wireless configurations. Once all of the parts are plugged together it will look like this:

Headphone extension cable

The length will vary depending on how far away your device running the interpretation web application is from the line level out jack. This example is 40ft.

[2 B] Wireless Setup

This setup is for wireless configurations. Once all of the parts are plugged together it will look like the following.

Wireless Mic System

A wireless mic system like the Rode Wireless GO III will transmit audio from the line level output jack to your device. This can be much more convenient when the output jack is on the podium. In addition, it allows you to use it in other meetings where there may bot be a microphone system because the Rode transmitters have both a 3.5mm input as well as a built-in microphone.
