Thoughts on the board?

Unread post by ComebackShack » Sat Sep 09, 2017 6:41 pm

Loved it! A few times the operator had some difficulty operating it, especially while the '07 team was on the field. I also noticed that the board was about 1 second behind the field action. Anyone else notice this or have any thoughts? I thought it looked great! Just a few kinks to work out

It was behind the field. I like it and the sound system

Volume could come down a notch. So loud it is almost difficult to understand the PA. Under the stands it was great!

O RLY?

Lol, too quiet, too loud. Only kidding, they'll get it dialed in. They don't plant decibel meters all around during testing. They'll get it figured out.

Completely off topic...they should put up a decibel meter (or a fake one operated by someone in the booth) to help get the fans loud.

I'll try and remember to bring mine from school for the Wake Game. I can get some numbers on all of this-Someone remind me.

Loved the new board. Just wish they would show more in-game statistics.

The board is awesome!! Didn't seem too loud to me but I'm on the older side of life, also the there were a lot on no-shows so it'll need to be louder with all of the seats filled...the feedback from the ref's mic does need to be addressed but really that was my only issue. Oh yeah, the Elevation 3,333 sign, hopefully they'll get that put up. I've been a little concerned that the size of the board would take away from the beautiful tree-lined mountain but it really didn't. Once again...a job well done by our AD staff.

One comment about the game, and perhaps I missed it, but did they ever give scores from other games in the 'Belt or key local teams? I like getting the updates and hearing the crowd respond.

No reports from "other scores of interest". Hopefully, that will improve too. Especially, Sun Belt scores!

Loved the new board. I hope they can do more instant replays in the future. That is only downside I had.

Absolutely loved the fact that we finally had the words to the Alma Mater clearly displayed. The student section sounded great singing it.

I thought everything was great with a few exceptions. They ought to use the board to start the "APP...STATE...." chant more often instead of just the students. A large portion of the students didn't seem to care.

The definition is amazing! Why, oh why will they not show replays, especially during reviews etc? Like the noise meter and stats idea. Scores are important. should have those on the ribbon boards. Hopefully this is like getting a new phone and takes a while to learn all the features!

Replays are a must.

Love it, sound needs to be turned down a notch, but it's awesome!

Loved it! I wondered if it may look too big for our stadium but it looked perfect. I expect they will need a few games to tweak the sound and content but I am sure they will get it dialed in. Anytime you have a new high tech gadget like this it will take some time to learn how to work it.

It is Awesome. Picture and sound quality were exceptional and beyond my expectations. I am very proud of our administration for pulling this off.

Also, once the grass sod gets going, we really didn't lose hardly any bank seating room. Negligible loss of seating.
