Church Sound: Understanding Line, Microphone & Loudspeaker Signal Levels
Mike Sessler
05/07/13 01:35 PM,
This article is provided by ChurchTechArts. The topic for this article came out of a very real conversation I had with my new audio volunteers. We got to talking about various signal levels that we deal with in the world of audio, and it became very clear that they had not yet been exposed to any of this nomenclature.
