How Jeopardy’s Sound Is Mixed

Описание: In this behind-the-scenes video, we step into the Jeopardy Mix Room to see how Jeopardy! Production Sound Mixer, Carlos Torres, prepares for five shows a day with precision and care. You’ll see how contestants’ voices are routed from podiums through custom mixes, how rare analog compressors shape the show's signature warmth, and how volume pedals (controlled by foot) bring in live audience reactions in real time.
