lcard05 Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 What was up with the distortion on our P.A. System. It sounded crackly and like the speakers were blown.....????? Quote
Lamarcard81 Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 That definitely needs to be corrected. Beautiful scoreboard and video screen. PA announcer sounded clear but audio associated with scoreboard video was awful. Quote
Mike Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 We were wondering the same thing. Last year it sounded beautiful and loud but Saturday it didn't seem to be tuned correctly. coastalman is on here every now and then maybe he can fill us in. Quote
LUFAN Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 The sound system sounded terrible... And they had bad feed back... Every time the announcer turned on his mike you could hear a ton of feedback.. It is not tuned properly and it they possibly blew the speakers. Quote
LUSportsFan Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Agree. System sounded great during pregame, but something happened during the game. It was almost like they cranked up the volume to compensate for the bands, but cranked it up too much. Hope it gets adjusted. Quote
BigRedTrack Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 At one point I thpought the referee had left his mike on since I could hear the back judge tell him what the penalty was. That maybe explain the feedback also. Really need to fix that. Quote

Gtj007 Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 I almost started this same topic earlier today! The PA system sounded like crap!! It sounded like the window was open to the PA booth and everytime the mic was turned on it picked up the bands or crowd noise. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED!! Quote
coastalman Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 At least we can all agree it sucked. Trust me, it was a hassle trying to get it right. Basically there were a few things that played into it sounding bad. Whoever said wind, that was one of them....the other was the band, and not our band if you what i mean...and the third is a little hard to explain....the audio coming from our main control was fine, it was when it hit the main board upstairs...it was of sorts "out of whack"....but towards the end I got it fixed and sounded much better.. Here is a little short for ya... About a year ago we had an event there in which the speakers were truly blown....i mean bad, everyone wonders why last year the ref mic sounded bad, that was it...so i had those replaced, and a limiter put in to stop the levels going over what the sound system is to handle...so in the past where you typically hear it get real loud and blows you out...no more....the limiter stops any level over what the speakers can handle...so in the event that another PV game pops up, and a band plays throughout the entire game....it will without a doubt be hard to hear.... So to sum up, factors are above...shouldn't have this problem again, but with live productions/sporting events anything can happen... lv Quote
