This install is a perfect example of how even a small system, done with the right gear, can be impeccably clean, incredibly powerful, yet simple. From one custom 6’ FOH desk one person can run audio, lighting, projection, and video with ease.
The audio portion of this install utilized a Danley Sound Labs SM100B, two SHMini’s, two Cubes, and 4 Nanos, some of them custom stained, all powered by LEA amps. A Allen&Heath SQ-5 runs all audio, with some beautiful Earthworks choir, pulpit, and piano mics fed into some just as pretty Ace Backstage floor pockets on stage. While at FOH six Audio-Techinca wireless kits handle all wireless needs. Chauvet fresnels and Colordash pars handle front and rear lighting, and ETC Foundry dimmers on the existing house pendants allow them to be on DMX control, while three Doug Fleenor Design Preset 10 stations make for extremely easy control from nearly any room entry point. Lastly for video, Sony 7500 lumen laser projectors dominate the front screens, Panasonic PTZ’s provide gorgeous capture of the services, while a Blackmagic ATEM 1 Constellation switches and handles all video routing to the sanctuary, nursery, foyer, and fellowship hall. Whew! What a setup!

Their new PA consisted of Martin Audio CDD10 mains, SX112 sub, an Allen&Heath SQ-5, LEA amplification, Earthworks choir mics, and new Ace floor pockets!
The video system included two 86” LG commercial display in the front, a 65” in the back, all fed from a Blackmagic decklink duo in a Sonnet enclosure, a ProPresenter 7 upgrade on a new kickin’ Mac studio, all integrated with their existing PTZ to livestream with lower thirds and feed it to building tv’s. Lastly we replaced the entire network with a Ubiquiti UDM Pro controller, three 24 port Unifi switches, twelve Ubiquiti AP’s, and setup their network for admin, production, and guest access. Talk about a slick system from top to bottom!

Sadly that also made the room into an echo chamber! So we came in and installed 15 G&S Pinta panels (dry fall painted acoustic panels) to match their room and control the sound. The results were phenomenal, audibly and aesthetically!
A little camera stabilization, FOH cleanup, and rear stage multiviews installed for our friends over at Pleasant Grove Baptist Church the past couple days! Sometimes you don't need new gear, just a little cleanup and re-organization is all it takes to boost your productivity!
Gyms are notorious for bad sound. When Holy Cross church decided to give their gym a makeover and have it be used for events, they reached out to us to address the audio quality and intelligibility in the space. 50 G&S panels later, and the space had transformed entirely. Before you couldn't have a conversation with someone right beside you, but after the install, you could plainly hear (and understand!) someone across the room. Check out the before and after videos below of the decay time of the room! BeforeAfterWrapped a install at First Baptist Church of Grayson this week! A pair of Martin Audio CDD12’s, SX112’s, VUE I-2x4.5’s for front fills, and 4 Blackline X8’s for monitors made for a sweet sounding rig! All powered by LEA Professional amps and of course an Allen&Heath SQ-6 at FOH!

A full compliment of Martin Audio CDD speakers, a SXCF118 sub, and some new floorboxes to clean up the stage. A set of CDD12 mains took care of the main sanctuary, CDD5 fills worked great for the alcoves, and it’s all powered by one iKon81 amplifier. Also, Blackline X8’s and CDD5’s handle monitor duty all powered by an LEA 168! At FOH a new Allen&Heath SQ-6 was installed along with a GX4816 in the stagerack! We finalized the install with 28 acoustic panels placed around the room. The result was a beautifully smooth system in a well controlled room. Perfection!

A new Community PA, Ace Backstage floorboxes, Allen&Heath SQ-6 audio console, 2413 stagerack, LEA amps, Blackmagic Design, Marshall PTZ's and more were part of the project! Check out the pics! We even tidied up FOH with a custom desk!

FUMC reached out to us with a simple, yet daunting task: rip it out and start over! Both the sanctuary and basement systems where antiquated, failing, weren't serving the churches needs, and in major need of help. Along with their tech director, Aaron Denney, we came up with a plan to not only get the systems up to today's standards, but communicate with each other, and have the ability to grow with the church!
The sanctuary system consists of the brand new Martin Audio Torus mains, paired with a killer SXCF118 sub, Martin's newest cardioid sub. An iKon 81 powers the main PA, as well as the VUE choir monitors. An LEA 354 amp powers four more Martin Audio Blackline monitors placed around the stage. Also in the stagerack is a gorgeous Allen&Heath ME hub ready to power up to ten ME-1 personal mixers on stage, and a GX4816 stagerack handling all the I/O. Lastly, six Shure QLXD wireless handle all of the handhelds and bodypacks on stage, all networked into Luxul switches for ultimate control. At FOH, an Allen&Heath SQ-6 handles the audio, a Blackmagic ATEM 1 switches, while a Hyperdeck records and a Web Presenter is ready to stream. All of the cameras are Panasonic PTZ's, and each of the sanctuary six TV's are all fed from a Blackmagic 12x12 smart hub for complete routing flexibility. But the best part is the custom made-on-site 16'x7' red oak FOH booth complete with an integrated rack with rear access, and J channeling under the entire length of the desk for beautiful cabling paths. In the basement, another Martin Audio system consisting of CDD6 mains and a SX112 sub rock out the room, ran through an Allen&Heath SQ-5, AB168, complimented with an ME-Hub, ME-1's, Panasonic PTZ's, and Blackmagic switching, recording, and streaming gear. And both systems can send and received audio AND video to each other! Such an awesome setup!

After multiple weeks of pre-recording their service, LBC felt that they just wanted more interaction with their congregation, and decided to take on the project of actually building a streaming studio. One where they could stream live, and if the pastor was up to the task, have Facebook open to where they could see comments in real time and be able to communicate (as much as possible that way) with anyone that had a prayer request or something that wanted to say.
