Doing Live Sound Yourself - The Basics Of Live Sound
What do you do when there's no dedicated sound engineer? If you're a musician, or involved with a church/organisation, there may be times when you need to do live sound out of necessity - perhaps connecting up a couple of micropones, plug in a guitar/keyboard/laptop, maybe even get a rough recording of someone speaking.
Live sound can be made very complicated, but it doesn't have to be. Often a simple setup can get perfectly good results and is preferrable where everything needs to be set up and taken down (such as with the many churches who hire school and community buildings each week). Things can and will go wrong - even as simple as a cable breaking - so what will make the difference is ensuring multiple people understand your setup and are aware/prepared for issues when they arise. If you've got other responsibilities (hosting/presenting an event, leading worship, playing in your band etc), then - and I speak from experience - you don't wanna be rushing around trying to fix sound problems!
Whether live sound is something you'd like to be able to do to in order to facilitate your own gigs/church/event, or you've had the title of "Chief Sound Engineer" bestowed on you with little training, I've produced a video course with you in mind - "Live Sound Basics - A Practical Beginners Guide To Doing Live Sound For Small Gigs/Events/Church".
