It’s amazing what you’ve learned in your thirty years of broadcast:
From post #6:
"How in the world can any technology "doctor" sounds in a live event"?
That is called EDTING, but, to do that, it first has to be recorded."
At first a total ignorance of the capability of audio technology, which you displayed again in post #9
"But those sounds cannot be alterted on a live broadcast."
Then you seem to accept that it could be done, but insisted that it was never done:
"But TV does not change sounds.
…sports broadcasts are about giving the viewer the sounds of the game as heard by those in attendance."
In post 17 you insisted again that broadcasters would never alter sounds at a sporting event:
"The sounds heard at home may be easier to hear , but they are the same sounds you would hear being close to the action at a live event. They are never altered or changed."
Finally, in post 22 you admitted the existence but denied the utilization:
"Ah, the capability exists. Certainly it does, but it is not used to change the sounds of the game."
"The swoosh at the tee is what you would hear standing next to Tiger."
In post 23 you told us:
"I can tell you for a fact that no American network broadcast alters or changes the actual sounds heard at an event."
Finally, you joke that the alterations that exist are basically meaningless.
What a wonderful route you took from being completely wrong to justifying being completely wrong.
Then, you sarcastically asked:
"Tell me, when you were in the ESPN truck were you there to empty the trash? Or the "sweetened gar bage' ?"
Well, unlike you, I stick to the truth. I never said I was in the truck. I said I worked at live events with ESPN. I remained at the event site and communicated with the truck.
But, regardless…it seems that I learned more working two events than you did in 30 years. Tomorrow I’ll post Larry's email and I'll ask him to use small words so you can keep up.

Please do.
Please keep us all posted on swooshes.
And sweetened but not unnatural.
And Randy Marshs' syllables.
I, for one, can't wait to hear the sound of ball going through the hoop during a televised basketball game and the sound of the "cork popping".
Or that elusive "swoosh of the puck".
Keep up the good work creating sounds in the theater.
I am sure the audience loves the sound of a saxaphone coming from a trumpet.
But for the rest of us,,,,the real sounds on a live TV sports broadcast will continue to be what we expect and cherish.
