Fresh on the heels of our drum mic’ing webinar, I thought I would post some details of our now famous “Drum Condo.” Perhaps ‘now famous’ is a slight overstatement; still, I’ve talked enough about it that I thought it merited a post. If you’ve read this blog for more than a month, you know that [...]

Drum Mic’ing Webinar
Tomorrow night, Thursday, March 26 at 10 PM EST, 9 PM CST, I will be hosting a TokBox webinar with Jason Cole and Dave Stagl. The topic (as the title suggests) is mic’ing drums. Both Jason and Dave have a ton of experience with this and will be sharing their knowledge. A few minutes before [...]
Equipment List
Since I’ve received several comments on recent posts that start with, “Is that a [fill in the blank]?,” I thought I’d run down the list of equipment we put in our new worship space. Almost all of it is new, since we came from another church that had a pretty complete, though not very good, A/V [...]
First Round of Troubleshooting
You finally made it. After working 15 hour days for a week, the system is installed. The band arrives and soundcheck begins. You’re excited because you installed an Aviom system, and setting up monitors should be a breeze (mainly because you don’t have to do it!). You call for the kick drum, dial up the [...]
First Service In The New Space
Well, we made it. After a long few weeks, March 15 came upon us and we found ourselves having our first service in the new worship space. Aside from a few technical glitches (including our Aviom patching randomizing during soundcheck–more on that later…), the gatherings came together really, really well. Feedback from the community has [...]
Be Back Soon
I feel like I’ve been neglecting the blog these last two weeks, but if it’s any consolation, I’ve also been neglecting other things (like my family and sleep…). Our first service in the new space is tomorrow, March 15, and after that I’m taking a few days off to recover. I have a ton of [...]
Two Year Anniversary
Today this blog is 2 years old! And according to WordPress, this is my 299th post. I should really have planned this out better; an even 300 would have been really poetic. I’ve had a great time working on this little pet project over the last 2 years. Even better are the people I’ve met [...]
More Progress For New Worship Space
It’s been a long week of construction. Every time I have an occasion to spend a week with a toolbelt on, I’m reminded of two things: First, I really enjoy building things; and second, I’m really out of shape. Back when I was doing construction full-time a few years ago, I felt fine after 10 [...]
