Interpreting

• Simultaneous | Interpretation performed at the same time as the original speech. This process is mainly used for formal conferences. This service requires complete equipment (light or heavy) for quality listening and smooth rendering. Simultaneous interpretation is the only way to interpret into several languages.
• Whispering | This technique is used for one to three people. The quasi-private interpreter operates without technical equipment and interprets directly to the listeners’ ears.
• Consecutive | The interpreter speaks in an offbeat way and reproduces the theatricality of the speech. No additional equipment is required. This type of interpretation is suitable for press conferences, inaugurations, and doubles the speaking time.
• Liaison | Method used during meetings with a limited number of participants (working meetings, meals, convocation, field visits, etc). The interpreter is located among the participants and speaks in at intervals following the main speaker.

Solten provides interpreting equipment meeting the industry’s highest standards. We make sure to use the right technology to suit your event and ensure that everything runs smoothly.

• Booth | Soundproof space suitable for a pair of interpreters, which requires upstream installation. The sound quality is optimal since it uses infrared light reception. Solten also provides mobile booths, a perfect solution when the space is limited.
• Light equipment | Stethoscopic headphones and a portable suitcase using frequencies. This economical and easy-to-use system is suitable for a small group meeting, field visit, trade fair, exhibition…
