Friends....
While "Googling" for sources to cite in posting information on certain techniques I came across the following:
http://www.sennheiserusa.com/houses-of-worship-audio-sound-s ystems_tips-and-tricks
There is a wealth of information directed specifically to the Worship community for the most often asked questions.
Tom....
Is it possible to start a "sticky" containing links to such hard info?

Has anyone installed and used JBL CBT 70J within a house of worship? We're looking at different options for a church that we're installing a system for and a pair of CBT 70J's has been considered. The facility is about 60 feet long (excluding choir loft) with a 40ft width. The roof is approx 20 feet high. If adequately positioned, (the church wants them installed in each front corner of alter), would this provide an intelligible speech amplification throughout room? How high should we mount the speakers?

If anyone has a Crown K1 that they are willing to sell or that they are not using and could loan/rent I have a church client in the St. Louis area with some older K series units. They had one fail and are looking to buy a used one or borrow/rent one while theirs is repaired.
Please email me back off-list at lee.buckalew@prosoundadvice.us and I will put you directly in touch with them.
Than you,

Hello All,
I spent some time today re-ringing the FB in today and I have some questions and observations. This discussion started in a previous thread.
http://churchsound.prosoundweb.com/index.php/mv/msg/15153/0/ 0/467ea867033bc91e8bccc01602f37d55/
The FB is set up on Subs 1 and 2 of my main house mixer. Vocals only are set to go through this unit. It is the 99 dollar B-word unit. I have the 2 channels daisy chained to give me 24 filters instead of 12.
Per a previous conversation, I need to set each filter up as a single shot. Once I get a lock on a filter, I need to switch the filter over to parametric to avoid the deepening and widening of the filter in single shot mode. For me, as soon as I switched the filter over to parametric it seems like the filter is no longer in place and the feedback re-appears. I am not familiar enough with this unit and did not have a manual handy to try to manually deepen or widen the filters. It seems to me like the single shot mode works really well. Once a frequency is detected, the channel mode shows me LO for "locked".
I discovered another error in my setup as well. Previously I would set all filters to single shot mode and start ringing in the lavs. I just happened to notice 2 filters kick on at the same time for a frequency. Due to the fact that the unit is daisy chained, you need to disable the right channel 12 filters and ring in the first 12 left channel filters first. Once they are locked, then you can set the second set of filters for single shot to catch any additional rings. I left the last two filters off and set them to auto once I was done ringing the lavs in.
This unit seems to serve its purpose very well. I can get much more gain out of the lavs with this unit. It also gets me much better gain out of my choir mics. (They are on another preset). For being a cheap unit I can't complain. It is not very user friendly, but once you get it set up it is easy enough to switch between presets. It is just the parametric mode that I can't seem to get a handle on.
For a room that is like an echo chamber with two array style speakers (Bose 802s) mounted left and right this little unit has done wonders for improving our gain. You can walk all over the entire room and unless you are standing right below the speakers there is zero feedback.
When we get funding available in the next few years, you can bet that I will be replacing this with one of those Sabine units. I will be glad to get rid of the Bose stuff too! Any inputs, advice, or observations are greatly appreciated.
-Wes

The slamming-a-book-closed thing was pretty lame this year. Anyone got a strepitus wav file I can have for next year-before I forget?

It was brought up on another recent thread, people talking about things they would like to see on an M7, and reasons why they can't go with that console.
Check-out this link. I think every one of the issues is addressed, which should catch the M7 up with what we all want to see.

One of the few nights I am not here at church, I get a call on my cell. It is one of the members from an older Bible study. "Something in your sound system is beeping" Beeping? Yes, I think it is coming throught the speakers or out of the sound booth really loud. Well they are in the Multi purpose room at the other end of the church. I question a little more and agree to come up and save the day/evening.
I stop by the convience store and pick up a 9v battery.
And go install it in the smoke detector in the hallway!!

 Steven Curtis' Chapman's Daughter Killed in Accident [message #126046] |
Sat, 24 May 2008 12:29 |

The 5-year-old daughter of contemporary Christian singer-songwriter Steven Curtis Chapman died after being struck by an SUV in the driveway of the family's Nashville-area home late Wednesday afternoon (May 21). Maria Sue Chapman was playing in the area with several other children. Her teenaged brother did not see her in the driveway when he struck her with the Toyota Land Cruiser he was driving. A spokesman for the Tennessee Highway Patrol termed it "a terrible accident" and said no charges are expected to be filed. The child was the youngest in the family and one of three daughters adopted by Chapman and wife Mary Beth. The entire family was home at the time of the accident. Steven Curtis Chapman, 45, has won 51 Dove awards from the Gospel Music Association and five Grammys.

Hey,
We're thinking of upgrading our camcorder that we use for service.
Currently, we take the composite signal and scale that up to XGA resolution, which is then sent via cat5 to multiple Magenta Research receivers across the church.
Since all the TV's can handle HD resolution, I'm not sure how exactly using an HD camcorder (if we get one) would work.
Looking at something like the Canon HV20, would we use the HDMI signal?
It's confusing because we use Magenta Research transmitters and receivers right now. So I'm guessing I only need to change the transmitter? or can I just find a device that will convert the HDMI signal to 1024x768, which is the resolution the TV's take.
Any help appreciated! You guys are great.
Thanks,
Silas
