Active Mixing - From Boring to Baller Episode Overview

In this episode, Michael Curtis shares practical strategies for creating more engaging, dynamic worship mixes. Drawing from his background as a professional bass player and mixer, he explores how intentionality and specificity can transform "boring" mixes into creative, engaging experiences that better serve worship environments.

Time Stamps & Key Points Introduction [00:48]

• Michael introduces the concept of "active mixing" versus boring mixing
• The challenge: Moving beyond "it sounds fine" to creating engaging, dynamic mixes
• Creativity as the antidote to boring mixing

Creativity Through Structure [01:41]

• Biblical concept of creation: bringing order from formlessness
• The playground analogy: Children with fenced playgrounds use 90% of the space vs. 30% without fences
• "Sometimes what feels like a straight jacket is actually a Narnia closet"
• Leadership through specificity and making finer distinctions

Strategies for Worship Pastors [05:52]

• Prescriptive leadership can be valuable when appropriate
  • The progression from 10 Commandments (prescriptive) to Sermon on the Mount (descriptive)
  • Matching leadership style to team maturity level
• Create "sit-down chords" - signals that create clear expectations
  • Setting up rhythms and cues that guide the worship team
• Organize tracks by function, not just instrument:
  • Percussion: Rhythm-driving elements
  • Foundation: Bass and low-end elements
  • Filler: Pads and ambient elements
  • Leads: Melodic elements that guide congregation
• Gamify growth paths for volunteers
  • Create progressive learning steps (like unlocking levels in a game)
  • Apply "arbitrary limits" that help beginners master fundamentals before moving on
• Name and assign musical ownership
  • Clarify who owns each musical element at any given time
  • Consider adding a dedicated "music producer" position

Strategies for Musicians [12:36]

• "Rhythm Randy needs a retirement party"
  • Moving beyond mindlessly strumming the chord chart
  • Playing a part rather than just playing the chart
• Use the whole playground within boundaries
  • Finding creative ways to express within structure
• Create "alley-oop" moments
  • Intentional handoffs between instruments
  • Setting up moments for other musicians to shine
• Beware of "bedroom vacuums"
  • Sounds created in isolation often take up too much sonic space
  • Smaller sonic footprint needed in larger ensembles
• Interesting is greater than good
  • Focus on creating compelling sounds, not just technically correct ones
• Hire both "Jekyll and Hyde"
  • Balance between foundational players and texture specialists

Strategies for Front of House Engineers [18:57]

• Be the guide - lead with your decisions
  • Take charge of the mix and make intentional choices
• Use contrast effectively
  • Create distinction between elements (can't have "close" without "far")
  • Highlight different instruments in different sections
• Anticipate "oops" moments, don't just react
  • Push faders before transitions, not after they happen
• Vary verse highlights
  • Intentionally feature different instruments in different verses
  • Keep congregation engaged through variety
• Develop common tonal language
  • The "5-1-2" system for describing frequency ranges
  • Creating shared vocabulary for sound issues
• Reference the real
  • Compare your mix to professional recordings
  • Combat ear fatigue by checking against references
• Mise en place - everything in its place
  • Strategic console layout for efficient mixing
  • Positioning faders for easy access during active mixing

Conclusion [24:25]

• Start with clear direction (10 Commandments approach) then move to principles (Sermon on the Mount)
• Have the courage to be specific with your team
• Embrace structure as a pathway to creativity

Key Quotes

• "Sometimes what feels like a straight jacket is actually a Narnia closet."
• "Move away from playing the chart to playing the part."
• "It is in that company's best interest to give you a patch that sounds great out of the box, but that's taking up a lot of real estate to make it sound good on its own."
• "Be the guide, take charge, lead your congregation with your decisions."
• "There cannot be close if there's not far, there cannot be wide if there isn't narrow."
• "Interesting is greater than or at least equal to good."

Practical Applications

1. For Worship Pastors:

   • Organize tracks by function rather than instrument type
   • Create clear growth paths for volunteers
   • Be appropriately prescriptive with newer team members

2. For Musicians:

   • Consider your sonic footprint within the full band context
   • Play intentional parts, not just the chord chart
   • Create sounds that are interesting, not just technically correct

3. For Sound Engineers:

   • Use your left and right hands strategically on the console
   • Intentionally highlight different instruments in different verses
   • Reference professional mixes to maintain perspective

Podcast Notes: Asking Better Questions in Worship Ministry - Kelsey McGinnis Keynote Episode Overview

In this episode, we present Kelsey McGinnis' keynote from Churchfront Conference 2024. As a musicologist and researcher specializing in congregational music culture, Kelsey explores how transforming problematic worship ministry questions into deeper ones reveals important insights about community, belonging, and authentic worship.

Time Stamps & Key Points Introduction [00:00]

• Kelsey's opening insight: "Whether someone sings in corporate worship probably has very little to do with how they feel about the songs themselves. It has everything to do with how they feel about their voices."
• Introduction of Kelsey McGinnis, musicologist and researcher of congregational music
• Her approach to using questions as the foundation for research and writing

Bad Questions vs. Better Questions [00:43]

• The problem with starting with bad questions
• How even problematic questions can lead to important insights
• The process of refining questions to get to deeper truths
• Why questions about music often reveal deeper issues about community

Case Study 1: Male Singing Participation [01:49]

• The problematic initial question: "Why aren't men singing in church?"
• Why this is a bad question (confrontational, assumes something not necessarily true)
• How online discourse frames this issue ineffectively
• Conversation with Dr. Randall Bradley from Baylor University (director of Baylor Men's Choir)
• Key insight: "Whether someone sings in corporate worship probably has very little to do with how they feel about the songs themselves. It has everything to do with how they feel about their voices."
• Stories from men about their relationship with their voices:
  • Being made fun of during adolescent voice changes
  • Feeling their low voices intrude during quiet worship moments
  • Not feeling their vocal contribution is valued
• The importance of mentorship for young male singers
• Better question: How do we create worship where all voices feel welcomed and valued?

Case Study 2: Changing Role of Church Musicians [09:07]

• The strange initial question: "Is it more boring to be a church drummer now than it was 20 years ago?"
• Why this question arose (multiple drummers independently expressing the same sentiment)
• How worship music style has evolved over 30 years:
  • Movement from rock-based to EDM-influenced styles
  • Increased use of click tracks, pads, and loops
  • More accessible technology changing worship landscapes
• Better questions: "What has changed for drummers in the past 20 years? Has anything meaningful been lost?"
• Contrasting drummer experiences:
  • One drummer who feels more creative with new technology
  • Another who feels increasingly obsolete
• The deeper question: "How do we let worship evolve without pushing people aside?"
• The challenge of obsolescence in church ministry
• Observations from the Sing Conference in Nashville:
  • Older worship leaders finding community where they don't feel obsolete
  • The need for intergenerational inclusion in worship

Case Study 3: Technology in Worship [16:30]

• The limiting initial question: "Should churches use live autotune?"
• Problems with "should" questions (invite simple yes/no answers)
• Various perspectives on autotune:
  • As "spellcheck" or "bowling bumpers" for vocalists
  • As pitch coordination similar to click tracks
  • Concerns about becoming "karaoke franchises"
• Better questions: "What are we really worried about with technology? When do we cross a threshold?"
• Parallels to concerns about AI-generated art
• The deeper question: "How do we balance humanity and imperfection with our desire for excellence?"
• Thought-provoking quote: "Contemporary worship is in its Vogue magazine era—the Photoshopped version of itself"
• The church's opportunity to model acceptance of imperfection and humanity

Case Study 4: Lament in Worship [23:06]

• Common question: "How do we make space for lament in our worship?"
• Widespread sense that popular worship doesn't adequately address lament
• Conversation with Matt Maher about emotional whiplash in services
• Better questions: "What do we actually need to lament? What hurt are we responding to?"
• The need for worship to respond to hurt both inside and outside church walls
• Letting worship be shaped by love of neighbors rather than love of excellence

Conclusion [25:57]

• The human desire for easy answers and clear categories
• Why superstitious views of music (healing frequencies, etc.) miss the point
• The challenge of moving beyond online "takes" to deeper community questions
• The value of telling stories that lead to wiser questions

Key Quotes

• "Whether someone sings in corporate worship probably has very little to do with how they feel about the songs themselves. It has everything to do with how they feel about their voices."
• "If you feel like your voice is a gift, that it has a place, you're more likely to offer it as a sacrifice of praise."
• "I want to be part of a community where people aren't primarily valued for their ability to serve a particular aesthetic."
• "Contemporary worship is in its Vogue magazine era—the Photoshopped version of itself."
• "One radical thing that the church can do is be a place where we can model acceptance of the awkwardness and imperfection that comes about when you allow people to create something together."

Resources Mentioned

• Dr. Randall Bradley from Baylor University
• The Sing Conference in Nashville (hosted by Keith and Kristin Getty)
• Religion News Service article on autotune in worship
• Matt Maher (songwriter and worship leader)

Action Steps

1. Examine the questions you're asking about your worship ministry
2. Consider how your technology choices affect people's sense of belonging
3. Create space for all voices to feel valued in your worship context
4. Evaluate whether your pursuit of excellence might be excluding certain voices
5. Look for ways to let your worship respond to the hurt in your community

In this episode of The Church Front Show, hosts Jake Gosselin and Matt Woltjer discuss several important topics for church tech teams including streaming platform updates, volunteer management challenges, studio equipment upgrades, and Easter service preparation. They also share interesting tech spotlights and clarify Church Front's service offerings.

• Welcome to The Church Front Show with Jake Gosselin and Matt Woltjer
• Jake introduces himself as "low voltage specialist" while Matt jokes about being the "Stream Deck guy"
• Mention of Church Front's website and the new "Toolkit" featuring gear packages and bundles

Streaming Showdown Follow-Up [01:27]

• Discussion of Resi's response to their previous streaming platform comparison video
• Key issues identified by Resi:
  • Tests were conducted on outdated firmware missing critical improvements
  • Resi Mini encoder was configured at a much higher bitrate (15 Mbps vs. 4 Mbps)
• Jake's acknowledgment: "We messed up. We mess up all the time. Don't take everything we said as the final truth."
• Explanation of philosophical differences between streaming platforms:
  • BoxCast prioritizes near real-time delivery even with occasional quality reduction
  • Resi prioritizes consistent video quality with accepted delays
• Matt explains the challenges of recording comparison videos: "We recorded this video three times... you have to basically stop what you're doing, congest your network or cut the cable..."

Volunteer Tech Culture Discussion [11:34]

• Response to a social media post about a 26-year tech volunteer who was abruptly dismissed
• The volunteer had served for 26 years and was told by a new pastor (8 months at the church) they were "going in a different direction" with no further explanation
• Perspectives from both sides:
  • Leadership should build relationships and provide clear communication about vision
  • Volunteers should maintain open communication and approach changes with humility
• Matt's insight: "If you build good relationships with your people, hopefully it never comes to this type of a post... if you can do it through that element of respect and love and relationship, it's going to turn out way better."

• Jake's warning: "Easter's not the time to try new tech!"
• Recommendation to plan major tech upgrades months in advance, not weeks before major services
• Jake: "If you are having to expend all of your creative brain power to put together a tech system that you didn't take the time to learn, test and use, and then your whole week is just consumed with stress... you quite frankly deserve that stress because you did not take the time to be responsible in planning."
• Matt's reminder: "Your job at that moment is to minister. Even if you're on sound, even if you're on video, your job is to minister, not worry about tech."
