Refree microphone

Does anyone know why we cannot hear the ref's at the stadium these days. It also sèms to be an issue with other things from the field. I can hardly hear Sterl with is pregame hype.

I can barely read the programs anymore either. It's like they have shrunk the writing. It's almost like we are getting older or something.

The sound inside the stadium is still terrible. The CC was nice, but I couldn't tell if it was the radio broadcast or what? It wasn't the stadium annoucer was it?

Worse than that, is the PA announcer bellowing "it's third down" a the top of his lungs just to hear his own voice. Horrible.

Just so you know, that is a recording. I have heard that same voice in many stadiums over the last years. It is loud for sure, though!

The quietest full house I've ever heard. But hats off to the fans for filling it up on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Against etsu at that

U were expecting it to be loud vs etsu when in the rain ?

Did they say why the guy didn't sing the National Anthem? (No disrespect meant calling him that guy, I just don't know his name.)

It is not a recording, in venue announcer Jeff Jarnigan says it live every time.

Sounds like a blessing to me.

Per an old classmate that works with the “fan experience“ department, as they call it now, there was some kind of interference that did not allow the sound mixer in the main control booth to receive the signal from anything on the field. The band microphones didn’t work, the Referee microphone, and the handheld that Sterl the pearl uses were all almost completely useless. I’m not sure if they punted on the national anthem singer because of it, or if that was a separate issue, because they didn’t discover the problem until about 20 minutes before kickoff.

the PA sound in the stadium is bad. They only use the speakers at field level. Not sure why they don't also use the ones on the scoreboards or at least put some speakers around the stadium led board facing the upper decks too

The ones on the scoreboard are the primary ones for the stadium. The field level speakers only amplify the band during allowed times.

I am affected by a bald patch.

FWIW, on the radio broadcast, it was frequently impossible to understand what Mike and Ramon were saying over the crowd noise. Wonder if their sound mixer was having troubles?

Couldn't be problems related to the new stadium-wide wifi, could it? Nah. Technology always works, and makes everything better (when it works).

Wow…welcome, i guess! Master class DELURK!

It seems like as HD TV keeps looking better and better, sound just gets worse and worse. I don’t understand it.

I hate that! Most stadiums do a stupid 3rd down call. It needs to stop.

No you haven’t.

Mercedes Benz had some pretty stellar acoustics for a venue that size. But one thing I noticed was the PoSB and smaller SU bands sound was swallowed up. At least on the level 2 ring. Only a couple of frequencies seemed to not disappear. It was a strange experience. Overall I missed the Neyland experience by a lot.
