I think in college, they make bands quiet down for that.

I went to a high school game this week and got to see the hilarious moment of a player turning to his own team’s band to tell them to stop playing when the offense was on the field.
Yeah I know for sure that the Longhorn band stops playing as the QB walks up to the LOS. 

My kids' high school band director is a huge football fan, so he knows exactly when the band should, and shouldn't, be playing.  It just seems to be accepted now, that the opposing band is going to be blasting throughout your QB call and snap sequence.  I still think it's poor sportsmanship but everyone does it.

Shoot, at high school games now, the opposing band plays as loud as they can, all the way through the center snapping the ball.
Hate that but as long as it's not Boomer Sooner,Rocky Top, Hang on Sloopy or repeatedly

yup, I think the band or canned noise in the stadium should stop when the play clock starts

They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

The USC cheerleaders sort of compensate.

NCAA?  It's high school bands that are doing it, not college bands.  Like I said, LHB stops playing as the opposing QB walks up to the LOS.  So do opposing college bands, near as I can remember.

I'm not so sure on the play clock, but certainly as the opposing QB walks up to the LOS and starts to make his calls.

If you did it on the play clock, you'd never hear any band at all.
