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.
Living Water Church has had a great ministry of feeding their congregation some breakfast on
Sunday mornings before the service. When COVID-19 struck last year that ministry was put to a halt, but the plans to expand that are and beef up other parts of their building to keep up with their ever-growing ministry were not. While making more room was the bulk of the plan, being able to hear and see what happened in the sanctuary and communicate with the building as a whole was also a priority. Here is where JCA Media came into the plan. Central City was in need of a new PA. The requirements were that it be as few cabinets as
possible while giving great coverage, be a clean install that did not obstruct from the architecture of the room, and obviously, be a vast improvement over the system they had. Wyoming Baptist reached out to JCA with the desire to improve not only their online ministry,
but revamp and simplify what they already had in house. They already had a nice console, stagebox, and some other components needed to get their system up and running, but it needed a good cleaning up and some organization. Like many churches, COVID caused LFA to look further into their online ministry, and first on the list was upgrading their video system. LFA was just filming with one camera, but wanted to move to multiple angles, and if at all possible, add POV cameras on stage.
