His voice breaks up & the speakers into the 1st stand(bend 4) are not load/clear enough. Plus the sounds of the bikes coming out for the next heat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

martinmauger 584 Posted April 12, 2019 The track announcer and Rob Godfrey on his roaming mic can (mostly) be heard ok, but for some reason whenever Roger Westby speaks he always seems muffled & unclear. Just sayin'.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScunnyDan 335 Posted April 12, 2019 Same equipment is used for PA at Stox and is perfectly fine... must be the announcer.. admittedly, at the EWR, the wind doesn't help our sound system Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scunny1 436 Posted April 13, 2019 The sound in the stand just after the start is dire, yet the sound in the car park is very good. Agreed ,when Rob is on the mic it is usually clear ,although a sports mic would stop the wind effect. Roger Westby interview before the match is poor as he always does it when the engines are warming up and is completely inaudible. Good job the scoreboard is pretty good and quickly updated. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justathought 374 Posted April 13, 2019 PA systems can be a problem. The main reason for most is that they are old and outdated, and probably 2nd hand when originally installed. Radio Mics can also be problematic with the battery needing to be fully charged for best results. Also, you need to have an understand of how to actually use a microphone properly to active best results. Setting up the system also needs understanding of acoustics and outside elements such as wind etc. It's all well and good setting up the system when the stadium is empty, but it completely changes when people are taken into the equation. Also, quite often there simply isn't enough speakers placed in the right places. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
