gnasher75 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Much harder to hear what he's saying than Scott Wilson. Don't like the difficult to hear audio commentary of goals before the game. Good to have interviews with Savage etc but not if you can't hear them. To be fair it was always much easier to hear Scott Wilson than whoever he was interviewing so presumably it is an issue with how he speaks into the microphone not the speakers.

kingantti1874 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Scottie Wilson is a tough act to follow. They are doing fine imo but need to quite with the “hearts of Midlothian “ if that continues it could irritate me as badly as HoMFC. just no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazajmbo Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Thought today he was trying too hard. Jambos fans. Hearts of midlothian . Whatever the free kick reference in Kingsley's substitute . Boys in maroon talk of the town. Worst thing is drowning the crowd every time we score with music. Leave a 20 second gap, announce the goal scorer without music.

SecN Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 The volume and distortion is now a problem. Actually being in the main stand is audibly uncomfortable. Music being a bit too loud is half the challenge, but the main problem is the mic output volume. I’m expecting the speaker distortion and output volume is what is causing the announcer to sound like he is saying ‘Hearts of Midlothian’. Possibility that this is caused by sibilance on the chaps natural speech caused by the output setup. He may also have some form of speech impediment that the PA system is magnifying. I’ll either start to take ear plugs which would then mean having a chat with those around me becomes tricky. I am hoping the club know about this and it’s not just auld guys moaning about it not being hi-ho silverlining on the playlist or it being one personality versus another.

The volume was way better than previously but, yes, his sibilance needs sorted. A wee further tweak on the EQ would sort it. It seems like there is a discrepancy in sound quality between the various stands. That needs looking into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naeclue Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Think he’s decent enough, but finding his way a wee bit.

D4nny_ Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Scott Wilson was ALWAYS going to be impossible To replace. The new team are still finding their feet and I’ve no doubt they’ll come good.

Tony Soprano Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 He was awful. Ill give him the benefit of the doubt because he'll just be learning but you can tell the guy isnt a hearts fan or even knows very much about us. "give it up for the talk of the toon, the boys in maroon" "hearts of midlothian" "free kick king, stephen kingsley" "jambos fans" All of that needs stopped immediately. Extremely cringy.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I really think they need the screens to make their thing work. Same lad that does Scotland games, what he does there works quite well, would imagine families going to enjoy seeing themselves on big screens, highlights shown and so forth. Agree though, he needs to get his catchphrase less corny, its not us, its not even Hibs or Aberdeen, what I would expect at St Johnstone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehibsareintheirbeds Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Can't say I noticed any issues with sound in wheatfield C yesterday but not something I actively listen for to be fair. Walked over bridge of doom after derby last week next to the guy, looked like he was with his son, so does seem to be a good jambo.
