How does Roger SoundField work?
Roger SoundField transmits speech from the Roger microphone to the DigiMaster loudspeakers using adaptive digital transmission designed to overcome background noise and distance.
Delivers consistent speech understanding
The system continuously monitors room noise and automatically adjusts its amplification. If the noise level increases, the volume of the Roger system automatically increases, so the speaker’s voice is always heard above the noise and over distance2. Listeners experience consistent, intelligible speech throughout the room.
- Automatically adapts to noise levels
- Clear speech, even at the back of the room
- Real-time transmission for natural conversation
Improves engagement and inclusion
When speech is heard, listeners can focus. Engineered to overcome room reverberation, it supports active participation, better learning outcomes, and more productive collaboration.
Reduces repetition and protects voices
By amplifying voices, Roger SoundField allows speakers to communicate without raising their voices. This reduces strain and fatigue while minimizing the need to repeat information3.

Roger SoundField can be used in as many rooms as needed within the same building. The system automatically manages its wireless connection, so multiple rooms can operate at the same time without interference. There’s no need for frequency planning, channel changes, or technical setup, making it simple to install and easy to expand across the entire building.
The loudspeaker (DigiMaster) spreads sound so everyone in the room can hear, but it can’t capture the speaker’s voice on its own. The microphone (Roger Touchscreen Mic) picks up the speaker’s voice and sends it to the loudspeaker, boosting volume and clarity. Together, they ensure that speech is clear and easy to follow for all listeners in noisy spaces or large rooms.
