Integration with broadcast audio for multilingual live feeds and VOD distribution
Interpretation is not translation. Live interpretation is a different job again.
Translation happens post-hoc with a document in front of the translator. Simultaneous interpretation happens while the speaker is still talking, with the interpreter listening and speaking at the same time, with a two-second lag measured in syllables.
The certified interpreters on CBA's roster have trained for years to do this. They hold degrees in interpretation, have worked UN and government assignments, and understand the domain vocabulary of the event in both source and target language. They are not generalists, and they cannot be substituted with AI (not yet).
Our job is to integrate the interpretation pipeline into the broadcast without compromising either side. Interpreters get ISO-standard booths, pre-event glossary prep, and IFB communication to the production team. The broadcast gets clean per-language audio tracks for distribution to viewers in their chosen language.
Regulated, diplomatic, high-stakes.
- Where every word matters and mis-translation has consequences. UN-style assembly broadcasts, bilateral summits, sovereign-level briefings.
- Earnings calls, shareholder meetings, and investor days where a translation error can move markets or trigger a compliance issue. Live interpretation into Arabic, Mandarin, or Russian alongside English primary.
- Large international events where first-language English speakers are a minority of the audience. Multiple language booths routed into the broadcast platform.
- Where a keynote speaker presents in their native language and the broadcast audience needs real-time access to the content without waiting for subtitles.
Specification.
- ISO-standard soundproofed booths, typically 2-person per language for fatigue rotation on multi-hour sessions. Delivered, installed and operated on site, with our technicians integrating them into the broadcast.
- Digital interpretation consoles. IFB return feed to interpreter so they hear any broadcast audio cues or floor corrections. Relay routing available (for example, Mandarin interpreter listening to English interpreter's Arabic translation).
- Event-specific terminology prepared before the event: brand names, product names, technical vocabulary, internal acronyms. Interpreters review and confirm pronunciations before going live.
- Per-language audio channels routed from the booth output into the main broadcast mix. Encoder outputs multi-track stream so viewers pick track in player. In-room receivers distribute per-language to physical audience.
- Each language recorded as an independent file plus the combined multi-track master. Archive and compliance distribution per language. Chain-of-custody metadata retained.
- Alternative model for small-audience events (board meetings, bilateral discussions) where an interpreter sits with the delegate and whispers the translation. No booths needed. CBA coordinates interpreter booking and IFB integration.

Which language pairs are available in Dubai?
Arabic-English is the most common and always available with certified interpreters. French, Russian, Mandarin, Spanish, Urdu, Hindi, and Farsi are all booked regularly. Rarer pairs (Swahili, Indonesian, Korean) are available with additional lead time for interpreter sourcing.
How much lead time do we need?
Standard language pairs (Arabic-English, English-French): 1-2 weeks for interpreter booking and glossary prep. Less common pairs: 3-4 weeks. Multi-language conferences with 5+ booths: 4-6 weeks.
Can you do just the booths, or just the interpreters?
Both as standalone services or bundled. Booth-only (dry-hire) for agencies who have their own interpreter relationships. Interpreter-only for venues that already have booth infrastructure. Full-service is most common for CBA-produced broadcasts.
How is this different from AI translation?
AI translation has improved dramatically. For low-stakes webinars, an AI translation tool can cover. For IR broadcasts, government events, or stakes where a mis-translation has consequences, human certified interpreters remain the CBA recommendation. We deploy both and will advise which is right for your event.
Can we distribute the recorded event in multiple languages separately?
Yes. Each language is recorded to its own track. Post-event, we deliver either a single multi-track master (viewers pick in-player) or per-language stand-alone files (one file per language for separate upload to different channels).
Tell us the languages, the date and the room.
We scope interpretation against the programme, not a package.
