Possibly some of it can be attributed to the choice of mics, the Shure SM7
has great 'presence' when used up close. Not boomy, just in your face
presence. Nice mic, wish I could justify owning one.

What audio processing gives the ``classical announcer boom'' to
classical music stations? Columbus Ohio has the same ``Radio Station
of the New York Times'' sound on their announcer. It can't be that people
actually sound that way in real life, that work in classical stations.

I mean you won't be behind somebody at Kroger and discover that he
announces classical music by listening to him talk to the cashier.

Hoffnung had a cartoon of an opera basso with an electronic ``wobble''
adjustment on his chest; perhaps there is a similar attachment for
classical announcers? ``bass boom'' box.

If there is such an attachment, why don't DJs use it too?
