      Great video as usual. Your videos are always extremely informative with top notch production. A similar video geared toward setting up for online only broadcast would be beneficial for inexperienced churches, with the COVID-19 pandemic preventing traditional services.

    Being that this is an older video I don’t know if you’ll see this comment or not but I was wondering if you could do a video on live church sound? Like how run the sound system and mixing, and micing and all that.
    Cause I’m going to start running the sound for my church and this would be incredibly useful :)

  • @andrewkoastephens210
    @andrewkoastephens210 3 роки тому +2

    This was cool. But as a bass player of 30 years I would never want to be standing where he put me. The bass player usually likes to be on the hi-hat side of the drummer so they they eyeball changes easier. There are always exceptions, but that has been the rock and jazz standard since the day “rhythm section” was first invented.
    I guess in this case the keyboard player must be calling the changes.

    Hi there, with this QSC powered speakers sound system setup, what is the maximum audience are you catering to? 300 to 500 pax?

    • @sweetwater
      @sweetwater  3 роки тому +1

      Hello, Neil! I would say that sized setup would work best for a small to medium sized room or bar, and probably provide adequate sound for 100 to 150 people.
      Could 500 people hear the audio coming out of that speaker set up in the video? Yes.
      Would it be concert level for all 500? No.

And just use a monitor speaker out put as my main sound for musicians? Would that be awful? Or sound awful? Thanks for your tutorial:)

      Hey, Hana-elle! Josh here at Sweetwater… Thanks for the inquiry! Great question. In short… yes, you can do this. In a longer answer, though, it's more of a question to why you would want to do this. What tone are you going for? Let's chat about this via phone if you can! Really interesting question that has both a 'yes' and a 'no' answer at the same time. Feel free to contact me with my info below.
