What
Do
Say
1
Table mode
Switch Roger Select on and place it in
the center of the table.
This is Roger Select, a versatile microphone ideal for
stationary situations where background noise is
present. When placed on a table, it automatically
selects the person who is talking and seamlessly
switches from one talker to another.
How often do you eat out at restaurants?
Client speaks
Would you like to hear better at restaurants?
Client speaks
As you can see, Roger Select picks up each speaker`s
voice around the table.
Let`s experience how Roger Select performs in noise. I
am going to add some noise

Table mode
with noise
Switch the noise on and wait 10 seconds
before you continue
After switching on the noise, wait 10 seconds for the
Roger Select to adapt to the noise.
Roger Select creates a beam in the direction of the
speaker and reduces the noise. Currently, the beam is
directed in my direction.
Ask the client a question: i.e. What did you have for
breakfast?
Client speaks. Ask another question.
As you have heard, Roger Select immediately switches
the beam in the direction of the current speaker. Roger
Select reacts very fast to changing speakers, making
you feel at the heart of the conversation.
If significant others are present, ask them to say
something too.

direction
Tap on another segment

While client / significant other counts, you continue:
After tapping: In case of a side conversation, you can
select who you want to hear. I have now activated the
segment that points in my direction, so you can hear
me clearly but not the person counting (point in
direction of client / significant other)
You can add and remove segments as you want, this
allows you to control whom you want to listen to.

Give Roger Select to the significant

When you communicate with a single person, then you
can clip Roger Select on the chest of your conversation
partner. This allows you to move freely as you go
shopping or driving in the car. Roger Select detects
that it is worn by a speaker and automatically activates
the beam that points upward.
I will now give Roger Select to <name of significant
other>.
Ask the significant other to walk away 10 - 15 steps and
keep on talking into the mic. When the significant other
returns, take back the Roger Select and say:
Roger Select lets you hear your loved one over distance.
So you could sit in your living room while another
person talks to you from the kitchen without the need
to shout.
