Okay, remember that when you next attend a live basketball game. I'm sure the ball going through the net sounds like a cork popping.

Remember that the next time you attend a PGA event, where each T-shot is accompanied by a loud crescendoing "whoosh".

Remember that the next time you watch a baseball game on FOX. Rest assured that the fans at the park hear all the same identical sounds that come out your television set. Quel imbécile.

Having spent 30 years in Live TV sports production I would say when you use the words "Quel Imbecile" to please look in the mirror.

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.

Randy Marsh on TV is what you would hear Randy Marsh say if you were close enough to him at the ball field.

If you want to say it isn't you would be incorrect.

If true, you aren't the first person to do something for 30 years and not learn anything new.

Patently false. Are you really going to tell me that when the announcers talk about the added sound on the tee shots on PGA broadcasts that they are lying?

Do you really believe that hock pucks make a swooshing sound in real life?

Do you really think that a made basket sounds like a cork popping?

What color is the sky in your world?

Randy Marsh on TV is what you would hear Randy Marsh say if you were close enough to him at the ball field.

I never claimed that what Marsh said was altered. I said that the capability existed to do so and that sound sweetening had been done in other sports. Both true statements.

Ah, the capability exists. Certainly it does, but it is not used to change the sounds of the game.

Why would it be?

The sound may be easier to hear at home, espeically in theater set-ups and and more sophisticated systems..

But it is not changed.

The swoosh at the tee is what you would hear standing next to Tiger.
The same for the ball going through the basket it you were sitting underneath, although you contend it sounds like a cork popping? Maybe you are a lush.

I don't know what hockey games you watch...but the sound of the sticks hitting the ice and the puck, and the skates, the puck hitting the glass and the pipes, the players crashing into the boards are all what you hear at a game....but the "swoosh of a Puck? Are you serious?

Once again, I can't tell if you're really that dumb or purposefully misprepresnting the truth.

I have worked live events with ESPN and I know for a fact that live sounds are sweetened "in the truck."

I have been to the Masters and I know for a fact that the sound heard at on the tee is not the sound the home viewers are treated to.

Hockey broadcasts, back when they added the electronic "trail" to the puck (or, I suppose you'll say that never happened either) also added a "swooshing sound" after the puck was struck. They have since eliminated both.

Networks have long "sweetened" even the crowd noise to give the impression of larger attendance.

Ah, bien, vous reviendrez à la liste d'ignorer. C'est une honte. Parfois vous êtes drôle.

The electronic trail of the puck was a short lived experiment to help follow the visual path of the puck on TV. The "swoosh of the puck" sound never existed.

What then is the sound home viewers are treated to at a tee of the Masters, "Gentlemen, start your engines?"

Networks have "sweetened" the crowd noise? You mean a crowd did not exist?

And were the strike calls of Randy Marsh actually dubs of the voice of Ron Luciano?

I can tell you for a fact that no American network broadcast alters or changes the actual sounds heard at an event. That practice is self defeating and easily seen trhough by the audience,,,,which is word from the latin derviative of " to listen".
