SCENE 01 / WIRELESS AUDIO SYSTEMS
Wireless Audio Systems
Professional wireless microphones and RF coordination for productions throughout Italy.
Wireless audio systems carry microphone signals, intercom feeds, and tracking audio without cables. We set frequencies that meet AGCOM rules across Italy. Our crews tame RF in historic Roman interiors and on busy Cinecittà backlots. Digital wireless delivers clean, reliable sound, so talent can move freely and sound crews stay flexible on demanding sets.
We source wireless systems with the channel count and frequency planning your shoot needs anywhere in Italy. Our team runs range scans that meet AGCOM rules, sets up each system, and packs backup gear. That keeps the audio interference-free no matter how tricky the location.

RF-coordinated wireless tuned to Italy's post-700 MHz spectrum
Wireless audio in Italy works inside a crowded, recently reshaped spectrum. AGCOM ran the 700 MHz range auction in favour of 5G mobile carriers. That move pushed pro production wireless into the UHF bands left behind, so planning is now a must, not a nicety.
Our wireless packages run on Lectrosonics SRc receivers. They are the rental SKU of choice across Italian drama and feature sets from Aroundsound, EM srl and Microphone Italia. We pair them with Lectrosonics SMQV and DBSM transmitters. Wisycom MCR54 receivers handle high-channel-count shoots on RAI Fiction and Sky Italia runs. Sennheiser Digital 6000 comes in where the mix demands it, and Audio Ltd A10 handles low-profile body-pack work under wardrobe. Our lavalier stock leans on DPA 4060 and 4061, Sanken COS-11 and Countryman B6 for hidden wardrobe placement. We add a full sweat- and movement-management kit for the heavy-costume periods that anchor Italian historical drama.
Running RF on Italian locations means more than picking clean frequencies. We run range scans at each venue before the shoot. These matter most in dense urban RF zones, like Centro Storico Rome, the Milan fashion week edges and the Cinecittà and Studios Italia backlots, where many shoots share one band. Our plan also weighs AGCOM-licensed TV networks wireless, RAI/Mediaset outside-broadcast trucks and the steady traffic of Italian commercial range users.
Packages scale from two-channel documentary kits up to forty-plus-channel feature and drama setups. We layer in IFB systems (Comtek, Lectrosonics IFB, Shure PSM) for director and talent cues. Every setup ships with backup transmitters, batteries and antenna feeds. AITS-credentialled operators stand ready for tricky multi-channel coverage. They serve 40% Italian Cinema Plan cash-rebates-eligible shoots and Netflix Italia, Disney+ and Prime Video Italian originals.
Hiding the mic is its own craft, and our operators work it case by case with wardrobe. A modern shirt takes a lav one way. The heavy costume that anchors Italian historical drama takes it another. Placement, mounting, and rustle control all shift with the fabric. We rig transmitters where they stay invisible to camera yet reachable for a quick reset. Sweat and movement are planned for, not patched after. Every pack gets moisture protection and strain relief for clean dialogue.
Range and link reliability decide whether a wireless rig holds across a big set. We deploy antenna distribution and remote front-ends to keep a transmitter solid. The signal stays steady from one end of a Cinecittà stage to the other. Diversity receivers and proper antenna placement cut dropouts on long takes. We map battery life against the shooting day. Packs are swapped in the gaps between setups, never mid-take. Backup channels stand ready so a single hit never stalls coverage.
FAQ
Wireless Equipment Inventory
What wireless systems do you provide?
We supply pro wireless systems from top makers, including Lectrosonics (Digital Hybrid, DSQD), Wisycom (MCR series), Sennheiser (Digital 6000, EW series), and Audio Ltd (A10). Which system we pick depends on your needs, budget, and the place you shoot.
How do you handle frequency coordination in Italy?
We plan frequencies under the Italian RF rules (ANFR). That means range scans at your sites, planning around other shoots that share a venue, and staying inside the licensed bands. Our team carries the tech load, so your shoot stays legal and free of interference.
What lavalier microphones do you recommend?
We supply premium lavaliers from DPA (4060, 4061, 6060), Sanken (COS-11), and Countryman (B6). The right mic depends on the job. We advise on how to hide it, the sound you want, and the fit with wardrobe and talent.
Can you support large multi-channel productions?
Yes. We often back shoots that need 20, 30, or 40+ wireless channels, such as feature films, big commercials, and live events. Our team brings the frequency plan, enough receivers, backup systems, and skilled operators to run them.
What about IFB and communication systems?
We supply IFB (interruptible foldback) systems for talent earpieces, director cues, and live broadcast feeds. The kit includes Comtek, Lectrosonics IFB, and Shure PSM systems, tuned to your wireless microphone frequencies.
Do wireless systems come with operators?
You can rent the wireless gear on its own or with skilled sound teams who run all the wireless for you. For complex setups, we suggest adding operators who focus on RF planning and wiring talent.
