Live Audio for Ceremonies and Events

Share live ceremony or event audio with guests through their browsers. Guests scan a QR code or open a link, with no app or account required. This can supplement the venue's main sound system or provide a separate path for overflow spaces.

When It's Needed

Not every ceremony venue has a suitable main sound system. Even when it does, guests in overflow areas, adjacent rooms, or outside the main hall may need another listening path.

OpenedMic adds a personal listening path on each guest's device. Results depend on the venue network, the source microphone, the listener's device, and the surrounding environment, so organizers should test the complete setup before the event.

Common Scenarios

Weddings and civil ceremonies: offer guests in back rows, side rooms, or overflow areas an additional browser stream
Graduation ceremonies: provide an alternate listening path for families in large auditoriums
Religious services: extend the browser stream to connected participants in overflow rooms, courtyards, or other floors
Panel discussions and talks: add personal playback controls for audience members using compatible devices
Simultaneous interpretation: let an interpreter broadcast a live translation in a separate room from the original audio

How Event Organizers Use It

Open openedmic.com/app and select Ceremony mode.
Print the QR code in the event program, display it at the entrance, or send the room link in advance.
Ask guests to open the room and verify playback before the event begins.
Press MIC ON when the speaker or performer begins.

Ceremony Mode

The Ceremony broadcast mode is tuned for the kinds of spaces ceremonies happen in:

Light noise gate: uses less attenuation between speech than the stronger outdoor preset
Voice EQ: applies the frequency settings defined for the Ceremony preset
Gentle compression: narrows level differences with the preset's lower-intensity settings

Brief Remote Voices With the Approved Guest Mic

For ceremonies, OpenedMic supports a controlled Approved Guest Mic path. One attendee, such as a remote relative, delegated speaker, or dignitary, can request to speak. The organizer chooses Approve or Deny. After approval, that attendee is mixed into the outgoing stream for connected listeners. The organizer controls guest volume, mute, and end. This is one voice at a time, not an open conference call.

QR in the Program

Print the QR code in the event program so guests can open and check the room before it starts.

∿

Overflow Coverage

Offer connected guests in side rooms or overflow areas an additional listening path.

🤫

Personal Playback

Each guest chooses an available audio output and controls the playback level on their own device.

🌐

Flexible Listening Path

Use the browser stream as a supplement or in spaces where a separate listening path is useful.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can guests join from different rooms?

Yes. Guests in overflow rooms, adjacent spaces, or even outdoors can join and hear the session in real time as long as they have a mobile data or WiFi connection on their device.

Will the audio disturb other guests if phones are not muted?

Playback follows the output selected on each listener's device. Organizers should ask guests to use a suitable personal output and keep playback at a level that does not disturb the room.

Can two interpreters broadcast simultaneously for different languages?

Yes. Each broadcaster opens a separate room. You can have one room for the original audio and a separate room for a live interpreter. Guests join the room for their preferred language.

Is there a delay between the speaker and what listeners hear?

Delay varies with the device, browser, network route, and relay conditions. Test the exact venue network and listening setup before relying on the stream for synchronized in-room use.
