    Excellent info! If you're using the L2 somewhere in the signal chain and there is a significant component of voice (speaking, preaching, etc.) I'd suggest people disengage the ARC (auto release). I find that it introduces too much distortion with many voices if you have some gain reduction going on. Try the release around 100ms.

    I miss my friend Andrew so much. He was an amazing guy and the best live sound guy I've ever known.

    Thank you for this! We need more information about what appropriate levels should be for audio.

    100% agree on the extra metering. I do the same with my home setup. I look-at and compare about 3 main output levels on my gear before I'm consistent to continue mixing. My limited experience in live-broadcast sound had a lot of trial-by-fire moments that necessitated more monitoring between multiple systems. Safer to maintain and much-faster to troubleshoot the what and where when things get crazy. Found my way here on that 2020 Grammy Flash Sale for the L2. Cheers y'all!

    You gotta love dynamic eqs with the threshold set to 0dBFS. Is sounds sooo “eq”instead of a “dynamic eq”

    not one mention about broadcast level standards or RMS. How does one build up RMS levels in a mix? While peak values matter a lot, most churches are struggling with too loud and too quiet. Content is great, but some big gaps missing. Waves has the tools to fill those gap!

    Not that it has anything to do with what was actually said and I like Waves and all but why do so many of these videos have intros that are so loud and then instantly have people talking in inside voices

    I don't see the point in using the live mix for your live broadcast as well since the live mix is tuned to the room ... unless you had that perfect room.

      That’s true most places have a split and keep their live mix independent from their broadcast mix

    we need a "podcasting standard" that insists the first 10 seconds of the video will GRADUALLY increase the volume ! ! ! REALLY !!! ... a segment on COMPRESSION?.... (...and when NOT to overcompress!!!)
