Nou Broadcast Service and AEQ Participate in the Audiovisual Production of an Event Featuring Pope Leo XIV in Barcelona

Nou Broadcast Service produced the official broadcast of the meeting between Pope Leo XIV and social and charitable organizations at the Church of Saint Augustine in Barcelona, as part of his apostolic visit to Spain in June 2026

A large-scale audiovisual operation was deployed to cover the event, consisting of 11 cameras, a tripod, a 14-meter telescopic crane, and a Steadycam equipped with a radio link, with the aim of ensuring dynamic production and comprehensive coverage of the event.

Technical coordination and communications for the operation relied on AEQ intercom solutions, used as the primary communication system among the various teams involved in the production. The setup included rack-mounted panels, desktop panels, and AEQ Xplorer MAX wireless beltpacks, in addition to constant communication with Torrespaña to ensure proper signal management.

AEQ intercom solutions enabled smooth and reliable communication among the various members of the technical team, helping to coordinate a particularly demanding production environment with multiple workstations and resources spread throughout the venue.

The equipment used included solutions from the AEQ XPEAK family, an intercom platform designed to facilitate communication in audiovisual productions of any size by interconnecting panels and users located in different areas. The deployed system was complemented by AEQ Xplorer MAX wireless beltpacks, providing mobility for technical staff and ensuring continuous communication throughout the event.

The AEQ family of intercom solutions includes rack-mounted and desktop user panels, wired and wireless beltpacks, PC software applications, and interface units for integration with third-party equipment and systems, providing a flexible solution for broadcast productions, live events, and professional communication applications.

The use of specialized intercom systems remains a key element in the organization of complex audiovisual productions, where communication among the various teams involved helps optimize workflows and operational coordination.
