What is RF coordination and do I need it?

Audio Crew and Staffing

RF coordination is the process of scanning the local wireless spectrum, identifying available frequencies, and assigning clean frequencies to every wireless microphone and in-ear monitor in your event. It prevents interference, dropouts, and crosstalk between devices.

You need dedicated RF coordination for any event with more than a handful of wireless microphones, especially in dense RF environments like convention centers, downtown venues, arenas, or any location where other productions are operating simultaneously on nearby frequencies. Even a corporate event in a hotel can have RF conflicts from other ballroom events, in-house AV systems, or nearby cell towers. For events with 10+ wireless channels, RF coordination should be a line item in the production plan, not an afterthought.
