In Episode 118, the hosts discuss plugins, what they are and how they can be used. The bottom line is that plugins can be useful (and sometimes more) when used correctly, but they should be seen more as helpful tools rather than a quick fix to a complex problem. The Church Sound Podcast is sponsored by DiGiCo and Renkus-Heinz.
