Show notes

Soundcheck can be a flurry of never-ending checklists and troubleshooting. My friend Ben Ivey joins me to discuss how we approach every soundcheck from the time we show up at church to the beginning of service. Building confidence in your skills can make soundcheck a breeze -- don't discount organization and repetition!

Bonus: 25 tambourines (as compared to 1) is an SPL increase of 28dB = [20log(25/1)], so could effortlessly hit 120dB. Beware of 25 tambourines.
