In Episode 115, the hosts discuss how to carry out sound check and begin building the mix. A proper sound check goes beyond just making sure everything is plugged in, it also helps in staying organized for the upcoming performance and shines a light on problems that could occur. They also dive into setting up a simple mix once sound check is complete. The Church Sound Podcast is sponsored by DiGiCo and Electro-Voice.
