This article is provided by ChurchTechArts. Maybe this never happens at your church, but at ours, we regularly have people on stage being interviewed. Sometimes they are telling their story, sometimes they are talking about or announcing a new ministry, other times they are reporting on an event or outreach we had. The one thing all these people have in common is that they are not used to being in front of people, nor do they really know how…

From a technical standpoint, the useful life expectancy of the mixing console you purchase this week is six to ten years at best. Its growing repair costs coupled with improvements in console design will warrant purchasing a replacement unit within that time frame. It’s also likely that your need for inputs and outputs will have grown beyond the capacity of that console, so it will be time for a change anyway. There are over 40 manufacturers of consoles. Finding the…

This article is provided by Church Audio Video. Scenario: You’re the Worship Pastor of a large, rapidly growing contemporary church. Your church has outgrown your current worship facilities and the board has chosen to move to a larger, pre-existing building. This new worship space was not designed with acoustics in mind. This building has all the acoustical charm of a large metal box. Question: Is it possible to achieve “good acoustics” without spending a fortune on renovations and equipment?…

This article is provided by ChurchTechArts. The first Wednesday of this month marked the sixth Night of Worship we’ve had at Coast Hills since I started there. Most importantly, it was the first one that I really didn’t have anything to do. That was kind of a weird feeling, but it was a good one. Normally, I’ve mixed FOH for those events, but I wanted to give Isaiah a shot. Just as I suspected, he knocked it out of…

This article is provided by Behind The Mixer. In a recent survey, many of you commented on the lack of professionalism you see in your volunteers. So, I wanted to give you something to post in your sound booth…the rules of audio professionalism! 1. Always be early. If you are on time for practice, you are late because people are now waiting for you to set up before they can practice. 2. Inform the tech director/head sound tech if you…
