Music & Ministry: TechCast

We are not big fans of using Multi-tracks during a service but you can learn a lot about what parts are important to cover as you arrange for your team. Today we walk through the free preview of “Beautiful Name” by Hillsong to see what is working together and what can be left out.

We received a letter from our virtual ‘mailbag’ that asked the question, “How do you get your keyboard player to stop overplaying?” As the answer is applicable to most any kind of instrument you’re going to want to make sure to join us today because this episode includes a lot of audio examples of why this happens and offers solutions for what to do about it.

Modern worship music is currently dominated by keyboard sounds. These signature sounds are a lot easier to have than you might realize. While there are several ways to get those sounds, through a different approach to making sounds called MainStage you can easily be set up to play most any song with ease. Join us as we talk a bit about how it all works, why it’s worth doing, and then stay tuned for some examples of tough songs made easy at the end.

Almost everyone is interested in how to sound better. But what does that mean? Your idea of ‘better’ might be different than mine so before you spend too much money, work really hard, or take advise from anyone you need to know where you want to go. Join us as we talk about how to get a vision for your sound and the importance of choosing to work together to make it come to pass.

Too often our solutions for problems just put a BandAid over the real issue. Instead of truly fixing what is broken we try and cover it, filter it, and mask it. Join us for our first installation of a new series we call the TechCast as we dive into techniques and technology.
