The sound tech is responsible for overseeing the sound board and separate mixes for our "house" mix (what we hear in Cuddy Hall) as well as the livestream mix, (what is heard online and outside on the big screen TV). During service, the sound tech is typically responding to any issues that might come up, muting and un-muting microphones as needed, and starting the audio recordings of service. The first service sound tech typically arrives around 7:15am so as to adjust the mix while the worship team is practicing. The second service sound tech doesn’t typically need to arrive as early, as most of the sound levels are already set during first service, however, it still important to arrive early enough to find out if there are any particular issues or changes in how sound will operate, such as a video announcement or unresolved sound issues from first service. The sound tech role requires some training. We have a media page with a series of in-house videos specific to our sound system and procedures. Each video is numbered. It is best to watch the training videos in order starting with video #1- Intro to Sound Board.
