Achieving a great mix for your live stream can be challenging. Live sound from a PA is what most church audio techs are used to mixing for and which is much more forgiving than listening back to a live stream! There is often a much higher expectation for the live stream or video sound as listeners are comparing it to highly produced music that was recorded in a studio.
Take the time to learn the craft! It is probably new to you. Don’t expect to master it the first week, but ensure you listen back to each week’s video so you can learn, review and improve!
If you are after some resources to help you improve the sound of your online worship experience, here are a few below:
