Episode 24 Pt. 1 - Jude Buffington joins us on the first part helping us to decide what we need when looking for a new mixing console.
Jude starts by encouraging us to define the need. What mixer you bring home will likely depend on many factors including the style of your church services. When you look closely at what you need you might find that a soundboard is not the priority. Instead, you might do better to invest in training, mics, or a host of other options.
Jude goes on to talk about analyzing the options. You decided you need a mixer, your budget should not be the first thing to consider. Instead, look at the options and find what your church needs. Need a more familiar, linear, analog mixer? Or the digital with all of its menus and presets? Are you using it to live stream?
Jude shares a few of his favorite brands to use. These include Shure, Electro-Voice, Allen & Heath, and Soundcraft.
Finally, Jude shares a concern that he has with church leaders upgrading technology in order to get struggling sound techs to quit. He makes the claim that church leaders should confront issues with grace and Christian love and that techs should accept direction with grace and humility. We are all on the same team, trying to accomplish the same goals.
