Retekess TT116 simultaneous interpretation system

A Practical Interpretation Solution for Multilingual Events

Multilingual events need more than basic audio equipment—they need a practical interpretation solution that helps live interpreters communicate clearly, listeners follow confidently, and organizers simplify setup, operation, and device management. The Retekess TT116 supports this with stable wireless audio, flexible MIC and AUX input, and a back-clip transmitter for more convenient hands-free use.

The US and EU versions differ only in frequency range. Appearance and core functions are the same.

How Multilingual Interpretation Works?

  1. The speaker uses the microphone with the transmitter to deliver the original speech.
  2. The interpreter listens to the original speech in real time and provides live translation through another transmitter.
  3. Each language can be assigned to a separate channel.
  4. Listeners use receivers to select the channel for the language they want to hear.
  5. Channel assignments can be adjusted as needed.

TT116 50 channels for multi-language interpretation

Supports Up to 4–8 Interpreters for Multi-Language Events

When several language groups need interpretation at the same event, each group needs a simple and reliable way to hear the correct interpreter. The TT116 features 50 channel IDs and accommodates up to 4–8 interpreters, making it easier to assign separate channels to different languages or speakers and run multiple interpretation streams at the same time.

This makes the system a practical fit for churches with multilingual congregations, international events, training sessions, and guided group settings where organized multilingual communication is essential.

Keep Listeners Connected Across Larger Spaces

In larger halls, worship spaces, meeting rooms, and tour environments, limited range can leave some listeners struggling to follow the interpretation clearly. The TT116 provides a working range of up to 656 ft (200 m), helping interpreters, presenters, and group leaders move more freely while keeping listeners connected throughout the space.

For events where audiences are spread out, this extended range helps deliver a more consistent listening experience from front to back.

Hear the Interpretation Clearly—Even in Noisy, Crowded Spaces

In busy venues, crowded rooms, and active event settings, listeners need more than louder sound—they need interpretation that remains clear and easy to follow. The TT116 uses UHF wireless transmission with strong anti-interference performance and noise reduction support to help deliver stable audio with fewer dropouts, less static, and clearer sound.

As a result, attendees can stay focused on the interpreter’s message instead of being distracted by signal interruptions or unclear audio.

Keep Events Running Without Battery Interruptions

Long services, conferences, and training sessions do not leave room for charging delays or mid-event downtime. The TT116 is built with replaceable rechargeable batteries, so if a battery runs low, you can swap in a charged one and keep the event moving without interruption.

This also makes long-term ownership more practical. As battery performance changes over time, you can replace the battery instead of replacing the entire device.

  • Up to 10 hours of use for the transmitter
  • Up to 13 hours of use for the receiver
  • Full charge in about 2.5 hours

Less Setup Stress. Smoother Event Control.

Running interpretation for a live event involves more than just transmitting audio. Setup needs to be fast, adjustments need to be simple, and device management should not slow your team down. These built-in features help reduce day-to-day operating friction before, during, and after the event.

TT116 one-touch mute

One-Touch Mute

When interpreters need to pause, coordinate privately, or avoid sending unwanted background audio to listeners, one-touch mute makes it easy to keep the audio feed clean and professional.

TT116 same-channel receiver shutdown

Shut Down Same-Channel Receivers at Once

After a meeting, service, or tour, powering off receivers one by one takes time. Press and hold the transmitter’s “S” button for about 4 seconds to turn off receivers on the same channel and simplify post-event collection.

TT116 large LCD display

Large LCD Display

Battery level, volume, and channel status are easy to check at a glance, helping staff and users confirm settings quickly without slowing down the event.

TT116 one-button pairing

One-Button Pairing

Complicated setup wastes valuable prep time. One-button pairing helps transmitters and receivers connect quickly, making deployment simpler for staff, volunteers, and event teams.

TT116 volume adjustment

Give Each Listener Control Over Their Volume

Listening environments and personal hearing preferences vary from one user to another. The TT116 receiver offers 10 volume levels (0–9), allowing each listener to choose a level that feels comfortable and clear in their specific environment.

Prevent Unwanted Setting Changes During Use

Once a live event begins, accidental button presses can quickly lead to interruptions, channel changes, or user confusion. The TT116 automatically locks its keys after 30 seconds of inactivity, helping preserve stable settings throughout the session.

It is a simple safeguard that helps reduce avoidable disruptions, especially in environments where devices are passed between users.

TT116 auto-lock feature
TT116 over-distance reminder

Help Users Stay Within Reliable Range

In larger venues and guided group settings, listeners may unintentionally move too far from the transmitter and lose audio. The over-distance reminder helps alert users when the devices move beyond effective range, reducing the risk of missed information and helping the group stay connected.

Add Identification, Branding, or Event Information

The built-in display area can be used for branding, event identification, or practical reminders, making it easier to organize devices by team, venue, or purpose. For churches, tour groups, corporate events, and training organizations, this can help the system feel more organized and more professional in day-to-day use.
