Museum Audio Guide Equipment: Setup & Daily Use

Practical guidance for museum teams and tour operators.

Which system should we choose for a guided tour or an exhibition screen?

Choose AudiTour for a guide speaking to a moving group through dedicated visitor receivers. Choose Oasis Aura with Eon Aura T when a fixed screen or installation needs its own headphone listening station. For two independent screens, plan a separate transmitter and assigned headphones for each screen.

Does AudiTour need Wi-Fi or a visitor’s phone?

AudiTour uses its own 2.4 GHz wireless link between the microphone transmitter and compatible receivers. Visitors use the supplied receivers rather than joining the museum’s Wi-Fi or relying on a phone’s Bluetooth compatibility.

Can several tour groups operate near one another?

Prepare each group with its assigned transmitter and receivers, and label the equipment by group or language. Test nearby groups before a tour. When moving a receiver to another guide’s transmitter, follow the pairing procedure; do not assume it will switch automatically.

Can multiple screens play different content in the same room?

Use a separate Oasis Aura connected to each screen’s audio output, and configure the corresponding headphones for that exhibit. Label the headphone and stand with the exhibit number. Test all stations together, including power cycling, before opening to visitors.

Will headphones always stay connected to their assigned exhibit?

Set up and test the exact transmitter and headphone combination, including what happens after charging, power-off and restart. Numbered headphones and stands help staff maintain the assignments. Fixed exhibit locking should be confirmed for the specific model and firmware rather than assumed.

Does this equipment store museum audio guide recordings or start tracks automatically?

The systems transmit and receive audio from a connected microphone, screen or external media player. Recorded narration and any automatic playback triggers must be provided by your exhibit's media player or control system. Choose the audio source and visitor devices together before installation.

What should we plan for charging and daily handout?

Check receiver quantities, charging capacity, labels and spare devices before each tour. At exhibit stations, return headphones to their assigned stands and verify the charging indicators. Include cleaning and inspection of shared ear-contact surfaces in the staff routine.

How can we check coverage and audio synchronization?

Test the complete walking route or exhibition room using the actual source and visitor devices. Walls, display cases, wireless interference and the source’s own processing can affect reception and delay. Check picture-to-sound synchronization at each screen before visitor use.
