A simultaneous interpretation system includes a plurality of simultaneous interpretation stations interconnected with a multi-conductor bus which carries up to thirteen audio lines. One audio line designated FLOOR connects to a microphone into which a source language is spoken. An interpreter located in a booth operates station controls which interact with the system. The interpreter may input select FLOOR or any one of twelve LANGUAGE lines for input to a headset and may output-select any one of the twelve LANGUAGE lines for output via a microphone. A three position microphone switch provides selective routing of the interpreter's voice from the microphone to an output-selected LANGUAGE line during "active" simultaneous interpretation, or back to the headset of the interpreter when not "active." Each booth houses two interpreters working as a team, with parallel interconnected controls, and each interpreter hears the other interpreter when their microphones are both not in the "active" mode.
