Describing Poor Audio Quality
Young: We have a major problem. The audio on the new presentation is really awful.
Silvia: Really? Let me listen to it. Oh, the volume fluctuates and keeps cutting out. We even have long periods of dead air!
Young: That’s only one of the many problems. Keep listening and you’ll hear lots of static in the background. Sometimes it’s so loud that it drowns out all other sounds.
Silvia: Oh no, the voices are distorted, too. Some speakers sound garbled and others sound muffled.
Young: And when you can make out what the speakers are saying, their voices are tinny.
Silvia: What are we going to do?
Young: I guess we can try to remaster it and see if we can make any improvements.
Silvia: What if we can’t?
Young: Worse comes to worst? We’ll use captions!
