SCENE 01 / WIRELESS SYSTEMS
Wireless Systems
Complete wireless infrastructure for your Spanish production.
Here is how this works in practice. Wireless communication and audio transmission systems keep production teams connected and audio signals flowing without physical cables. These systems cover wireless intercoms, IFB feeds, audio hops, and comms networks that are key for setting up large crews across expansive sets or locations.
Here is the short of it. We give wireless system packages configured for your production's specific communication and audio distribution needs. Our team sets up frequency planning and gear testing to make sure interference-free operation, allowing seamless crew communication and reliable audio transmission across your shoot.

Wisycom MCR42, Lectrosonics SRc, and Shure Axient Digital wireless infrastructure through Audio Plus Madrid, Sound Spain, and Camara Movil with CNMC spectrum coordination in dense Madrid and Barcelona TV white space
Here is how this works in practice. Wireless systems in Spain route through Audio Plus Madrid, Sound Spain, and the Camara Movil Madrid Audio Division alongside the rest of the audio inventory. Receiver inventory leads with Wisycom MCR42 dual-band wideband receivers. The European-market default with 220MHz tuning range that handles the fragmented Spanish UHF allocation across the 470 to 694MHz band where CNMC has retained portions for digital terrestrial broadcast (TDT) and emergency services.
Here is the short of it. Lectrosonics SRc and the higher-channel SRb wideband receivers cover the US-default workflow when a LA-based production lands in Madrid with Lectrosonics SMQV and SMV transmitters already on the staff kit. Shure Axient Digital AD4Q and AD4D scale to the largest cast counts — Money Heist multi-character ensemble blocks and similar. With ShowLink remote control giving the mixer transmitter-level parameter changes from the cart without sending crew to talent on a break.
Here is the breakdown. CNMC (Comisión Nacional de los Mercados y la Competencia) range planning is required for any Spanish wireless deployment exceeding two channels. The Spanish UHF allocation is among Europe's tightest because of the dense Madrid and Barcelona TDT digital terrestrial broadcast networks plus reserved bands for Guardia Civil. Policía Nacional, ambulance, and military emergency services. Frequency scanning at the location during prep happens through Shure WWB6 software with the Axient Digital AD600 range manager. The same scanner that exports to Lectrosonics Wireless Designer and Wisycom Manager for cross-vendor planning.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Cross-border planning from Portugal ANACOM and France ANFR applies on the Galicia, Extremadura, and Pirineos border units. Heritage-zone permits at the Alhambra, Alcázar, Mezquita, Toledo, and Salamanca limit broadcast power and need directional antenna positioning. IFB-IEM through Wisycom MTK952 or Lectrosonics IFBT4 for the director-to-talent line.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What wireless systems do you coordinate?
We set up all production wireless systems including microphones, IFB/IEM, wireless video, lens control, intercom, and any other RF gear. Full planning makes sure all systems work together without interference.
How do you handle frequency allocation?
We scan your locations, identify clean frequencies within Spanish legal range, and allocate channels to all departments. We give frequency records and work with each department to program their gear.
What about wireless video systems?
We supply Teradek Bolt, Vaxis Storm, and other wireless video systems for video village distribution. These give zero-latency transmission allowing directors and clients to monitor without cables.
Do you provide wireless lens control?
Yes, we supply wireless follow focus systems including Preston FIZ, ARRI WCU-4, and Tilta Nucleus. We make sure lens control frequencies are set up with other wireless systems.
What about Spanish RF regulations?
We're familiar with Spanish frequency rules and make sure all wireless gear operates within legal range. We can advise on sign-ups needs for high-power systems.
Can you support large-scale productions?
Yes, we often support shoots with dozens of wireless channels across many departments. Complex shoots gain most from full RF planning.
