Well with Churcfront it’s more about upgrading the current systems churches use. When here is about helping the churches clean up their mix with what they have. I’m sure if they asked that he would give them options to upgrade though
i like how you take what they have and use that instead of being like churchfront who are like "nah you need a new 48 channel digital mixer, new PA and maybe that'll make it sound ok"
good lordy ... I remember using a 32 channel Allen & Heath manual console to mix church ... it was a pain. churches need to be using a digital console especially due to the scene save / reset ability
Can't wait for this to turn into a more serious thing and companies start to sponsor upgrades for some of these places. You get a before with theirs vs after with upgrades, you could even tune both etc. Awesome work though as always
There’s already a channel that does exactly that. It’s called Churchfront. Love those guys but I’m not trying to do what they do. I’m happy helping church’s with the gear they already have. However, if some microphone manufacturers want to sponsor me (looking at you Behringer) and donate room mics to give to these church’s, that would be amazing.
@ Yes. 24 is just what we need for our church mix which is primarily vocal and spoken-word. 5 choir mics, 1 mic each for the altar, pulpit, and commentator, an organ (plugged direct) and a computer. In addition we have a stereo send coming to a Focusrite 2i2 which serves the stream.
We have the same exact model mixer.! Altough it's a nice mixer overall, it lacks all the bells and wistles of its digital counterparts. Thanks for this video! Keep up the good work!
By the way, this "32 channel" console, what in fact has 24 channels only plus 4 stereo channels with unbalanced input and limited equalization, isn't much cheaper than a Behringer X32, where you can do test recordings and use all 32 channels.
Not a sound engineer, but I did volunteer at a local church a while ago that had a Yamaha GF24/12 analog board. This one looks pretty similar at least on the channel controls. Was a fun experience, and the only sound board I've run. The digital boards looks very cool nowadays.
I gotta shadow someone like you one of these days, so I can ask tons of questions about what you see in the settings and graphic spectrum vs what your ears hear when you're doing levels and eq. Amazing video as always dude!
Love this series! Especially love how you flip back and forth between the FOH mix and the stream mix. I can always tell the difference but I'm curious to how that is accomplished for the sake of showing us in the videos, it is done LIVE or edited in POST? Hope that makes sense. Thanks
Proper video on the analog board. We have the exact one in our church and I wanted to ask, how did the graph on the board screen look like. I feel like that is the only part we haven't figured out to make our livestream mix sound better. Thank you
check the ohm on his phones for volume increase. Get some good Iso drum phones rather than cancellation phones. Photo the board settings. get that snare out of everything.
@@chrishammillaudio I can't argue with that opinion as it's based also in fact IMO. :) Could even do a pair of C2's or something where the cost of the XLR runs would probably cost more than the mics themselves. (maybe)
I use that exact board at my school, and theres one thing i need to say: the geq on that inbuilt mp3 player on the mixer player is really shitty. Everything else is good and nice. Only thing is, that most of the guys in the audio team dont know how to use the board. Sometimes we also use a midas m32. But i prefer analog for the things we are doing :)
after your intro, all i could think was (but can you fix their bitrate?) Thx for this video on analog production. I still say there's stuff to learn here that carries over everywhere.
@@theCmunee If your objective is to buy simply the cheapest, then buy the cheapest you can find. The quality probably wont be good but you’ll accomplish your goal of buying cheap.
Try the most inexpensive Behringer condenser microphones. A matched stereo pair, price below a single SM 58, including stand adapter to attach two microphones on one stand.
