The licence fee is a hot Westminster issue these days. People say all sorts of bad things about the BBC, but something that often gets missed is the sound. What do the professionals think of BBC sound? This little video explains a few issues in an example of Coonsburg on Sunday. Yes I know, it sounds like goonsburg. Well it bloody well is. The goon herself is one of the top employees of the BBC, where I think she gets in the region of £1/3 million of your licence fee each year. In the age of everyone needs a degree to get a job, this is astounding. The comments are also of the same view. This is a channel for sound engineers.

The licence fee is no longer a hot topic of discussion within Westminster, and our BBC is no longer subject to veiled threats as happened during a succession of Tory Culture Secretaries, lot least from Nadine Dorries.
BBC Sounds is a service available to all, and includes entertainment, learning and education, its a resource regarded as invaluable to many learning institutions which use BBC Sounds to not only educate people on British music, but on UK culture.
Probably the most significant contribution that BBC Sounds is involved with is "The BBC Proms", described by leading Czech conductor "Jiri Belohlavek" as (quote) "the world's largest and most democratic musical festival".
The BBC, since taking over as the main partner of The Proms has ensured accessibility to The Proms by ordinary people in provincial towns and citys such as Middlesbrough, Belfast, Swansea and Manchester.
BBC Sounds - is massively popular with blind and visually impaired people who listen to radio programmes, music, plays, news, sports events and episodes of radio series such as The Archers.
The BBC - The Proms - BBC Sounds - together makes an unrivalled and significant contribution to Britain, to British life and to British culture, of which no other broadcaster comes even remotely close to.

It looks like you have copy and pasted a bit of PR on a website somewhere, or you put your query into chat GPT and that was its output.
We are talking about lack of basic skills like the positioning of the microphones. Yes indeed, that was plural. You can only reproduce stereo with 2 or more microphones. This is basic stuff.

There was a time when the BBC's audio was considered by professionals to be the best in the business. Now it appears they are employing monkeys.

The BBC's self-imposed diversity quotas apply just as much to 'behind the camera' operations as they do to on-screen roles.
It's just that we can see the effects of the latter for ourselves and can thus easily understand why so much of its output is mediocre these days.
