Bad Audio Diary BAD2 : Accidental amplification - Can it be avoided?

This video describes an example of what could have been bad audio, but turns out to be surprisingly not bad at all. But then there's a twist (2:52 - thank me later).

As usual I explain what went wrong, what could have additionally gone wrong, and what the potential solutions would have been.

Audio Masterclass Course Director David Mellor presents.
