Hi Paul, Thanks for all of your videos! I've recently been placed into leadership over our student ministry, and we are looking to do a full overhaul of the facility, as well as the format of how ministry is done! Your content is super practical and pretty awesome! Thanks again!
Great video! I'm looking to add some white light to a small church stage to illuminate the musicians and whoever does offering. I need to know what kind of light will work and how to hang it. I see you have a silver 'truss' hanging from your ceiling with lights mounted to it. Can you or have you done a video regarding that? We are a church with about 50 members right now.
Jennifer Wilhelm Hey Jennifer, the lighting rig and lights I have on them are pretty standard. If you have a Guitar Center in your area, they have a whole room of lights they can help you with. They sell the trusses and lights and would help you choose the right set up.
That's a great idea I didn't think of going to guitar center! I have no experience rigging lights but we just got a par from Chauvet (to sit on the ground) and want to add more lighting. Thanks!
Hey James, I made them out of foam. You can watch the video here, ruclips.net/video/sZ9dSlmBf8I/видео.html&lc=z23uvjlz5ln0h51nmacdp430yq5zolob5rztbd4jwfxw03c010c
Thanks Paul. I have a Q: I'm not to tech minded. We have amps and guitars and a PA sound system. But I struggle to understand how to get our sound to Gell together. So, our guitars use amps on the stage, our keyboard plugs straight into the PA system, and so we have two speakers that are about a 1/4 of the room length away from the stage where the mic and keyboard sound comes from, then we have the guitar sounding coming from the amp and the drums on stage... All of this feels like a mess - but I don't know how to do it any other way. Is this right?
Mic the amps. If you have a backstage or something move the amps there and do what you can to isolate the sound. But micing an amp is really the best way to mix a guitar/bass. Gives you the tone while allowing for the control and sound you're looking for.
Many things could be noted- Room acoustics play a big factor and sound that is coming from the stage as opposed to from your main speakers will translate as muddiness to your audience. Additionally, if wedge monitors are used for musicians, that is additional sound coming from the stage as opposed to the main speakers. Switching out wedges for In Ear Monitors will also help. As you work on all or most of the sound coming exclusively from your Main Speakers, the quality of those speakers will come into play. With that said, training goes a long way to help musicians and singers find their place in the mix and perform in such a way that it sounds good.

Great evening I wanted to know what you guys used to make the letters on the back wall.
I cut them out of foam.
This video was very helpful.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!

Do you have a sound board?

Way too subtle for my needs but thanks.
"cool" stage lighting effects
Ah, I see what you did there.
