Headroom Productions Delivers Exceptional RF Audio for "The Traitors" Using Wisycom
Based in Montreal, Headroom Productions excels in equipping complex, multi-location reality shows with flawless audio capture. Led by CEO Jean-Sébastien Roy, the Canadian company has established itself as a trusted provider of broadcast equipment rentals for high-profile unscripted productions.
Headroom's extensive portfolio includes shows such as Survivor Canada, I’m a Celebrity: Get Me Out of Here, and Star Académie. The company is renowned for setting high standards in audio quality, largely due to their effective use of Wisycom solutions.
Challenges of “The Traitors” Production
The reality series The Traitors is one of Headroom's most demanding projects. Its large, remote set and mobile cast create considerable logistical hurdles for maintaining consistent audio capture.
“'Traitors' is the perfect example of why we use Wisycom,” explains Roy. “We run a full-scale Wisycom setup across the entire production. From the moment the cast leaves the manor to the final challenge, we capture pristine audio, even when we can’t see the cast.”
Advanced Wisycom System Deployment
- 16 antennas deployed across the set
- Multiple Wisycom MAT288 matrix systems enable RF-over-fiber connectivity
- Four MRK16 receivers strategically placed—two at the manor and two at the challenge location
This advanced setup ensures seamless audio transmission despite the complex environment and constant movement inherent in the show’s format.
