Werner Althaus Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 It was probably a clone of a real american mic, made by the Chinese, put there on purpose and it was defective, tremendously defective. Maybe he can get his 10-year old computer whiz son to develop a real time de-snifler plug in for the next round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Perkins Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 How was it defective? I didn't hear him drop out, I did hear a somewhat Dugan-y gain sharing thing happen when they talked over each other, but I didn't lose either of them in those scrums....?

Rick Reineke Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Both candidates had two mics as well (visible) A lav and the podium mic. I couldn't tell which one they used (unless it was away for the pod) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think DT mentioned that it was "defective" because it picked up his breathing, duh. Remember that "stupid mic"in Pensacola last January, DT and mics don't get along.

Glen Trew Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 He was saying that it seemed to go in and out through the speakers in the auditorium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My opinion only, but when you listen to the debate you can clearly hear the slap back from the room. There are some artifacts from some sort of expander or auto mixer as mentioned earlier, but you can hear clearly when Donald speaks that the FOH guy was bringing him up to the same level in the house as Hillary. At certain points you can hear the house PA gently coming up in level ( not a gating artifact since) or reducing level, suggesting that the FOH engineer did ride levels as he should. Also important to remember is that the Broadcast A1 was probably in communication with the FOH engneer to alert him when the house sound was interfereing with the Broadcast mix. Anyway, DT's claim is bogus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly the stream of BS pouring down into the mic might have broke the mic itself.... they're not designed to handle that level of abuse!

Glen Trew Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 This from the Commission on Presidential Debates: "Sep 30, 2016: Regarding the first debate, there were issues regarding Donald Trump's audio that affected the sound level in the debate hall". Of course, all of us know that it wasn't the microphone, and it probably had something to do with the house sound reinforcement system. But it's a given that when metropolitan property developers explain audio, they sound to us like we sound to them when we explain metropolitan property development.

Marc Wielage Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 The problem with microphones is, sometimes they work when you least expect it... and they reveal the truth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
