Indeed. But your particular sector of broadcasting, drama is
considerably smaller, and probably uses simpler techniques
than in music broadcasting, so it is not surprising if you have
little experience of the kind of effects used in popular music
recording.

Lots of 'probables' there, Iain. Don't hypothesise on things you know
little about. Adding and matching acoustics is a major part of drama
dubbing, and a decent suite will have every device known to man...

With equipment short-term rental being so cheap these
days, any special requirements are just a phone call away.
It doesn't make good economic sense for any commercial
company to own every device known to man.

But maybe in the case of facilities built with the tax
payers' money, anything goes:-)

But as David has already pointed out, the effects we
are talking about here have nothing to do with matching
or adding an acoustic. They are artificial effects
pure and simple. I even used the word contrived.
