We Livestream and with our X32, we setup a dedicated buss for audio that is output to our atem switcher. When the Livestream tech operates he (me) will remote into the X32 and create and dedicated mix that is sent out to over flow rooms, nursing rooms and out to Livestream. This is pretty much a must in order to get the sound right. And also, this needs to be in a separate room preferably away from the sanctuary in order to mix appropriately.
My church records/livestream our whole service for our second and third services at 9:30am and 11am. My Church is Burke Community Church which is 20 to 30 minutes (sometimes more depending on traffic) south of D.C.
I'm a worship leader at a church of about 250 or so, we post our full service, music and all. What I do is take the raw tracks off our board and mix everything from scratch later. Just wondering if anyone else does it this way... We don't have the gear or personnel to have a live video mix. The downside is it takes me a few days to get the service posted, but I'm usually able to get a pretty good mix. I've been loving your channel btw, tons of great info, I've been recommending it to lots of people. Thanks for everything you're doing!
Thanks for sharing Chris! What you described is exactly what Jesse did before they built their broadcast studio. From what I understood he took raw tracks from the Saturday night services and mixed them down the following week. Sounds like you're on the right track, bro! Keep up the great work!
Yes! You’re totally on the right track. Doing this, you can also do important things like tune vox...not with autotune but with melodyn which does a much better job. Also you do drum replacement if needed. But yes the only downside is the turnaround time.
@Warren Roberts you have to rouet all the channels from your board and route them to your ableton lite on seperate channels. You can now monitor the whole time and route the output of the 2 mix from the session you are monitoring to the software you will be using for streaming. I hope that helps. Thanks!
Hi Jake I’m watching from South Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦. I’m a drummer at a church called Linc Church. We record our whole service including worship and then stream it on TH-cam and Facebook. I’ve been getting into recording for the last year. This video was really helpful in terms of mixing and gear. Thank you. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Wow! Love your content! I’m a fan of your channel! Really helps me to understand all we have and need to grow our church. Big thanks bro!! 🙌🏽 From Portugal 🇵🇹 😃
We stream our services on Facebook. So, our services are recorded and saved from bell to bell every week whether we want it or not. Because we're using the X32 (which everyone uses), we use three buses for the online mix. The biggest issues are, we don't have a separate room to do our mixing yet (... we're working on it ...) and there's a slight delay from the live mix and what goes to the stream; probably less than half a second. It's not enough of a delay to notice and adjust things in the stream but I notice it (... although, you actually WANT a delay for your live stream so you can "fix"/cover up mistakes on the fly but it needs to be longer than less than half a second).
We have a similar set up, just without the studio room, and did it all for under $5000 for a church of 300. It’s awesome that pricing has become so adorable. You should tour some churches outside of Colorado!
Great insight. When I was in CO 3 yrs ago I really wanted to visit RRC for a service. Just didn’t work out, but next time I’m there, it’s a priority. We do a live “livestream”, but only post the message. I watched this video because I rewatched want to address our live audio. It’s a mirror of the FOH mix. We know it’s not ideal, but we are working on making it better. Ty for all the info
We are starting to get to this point at my church where I lead audio. We have a CL1 in broadcast, use Dante, but don’t use the ableton or ProTools. Our broadcast mix goes out live.
I’m the sound engineer at my church and we would like to do live streaming, but cost and current equipment we have is still analog equipment (granted I do this for another church that does stream online with analog equipment). But I have some challenges as we are in a 100+ year old building that wasn’t built for sound refinement, so with the building lots of reflection, and echo and everyone loves monitors so it is a loud of sound bouncing around the room.
I have many times. The incredible thing about Elevations is that it’s basically the same at every location they have....and even more in depth at Ballantine.
Hi Jake 👋 I'm from India. Ours is a small church, with a congregation of about 150. We don't record our services, but would love to. Huge fan of your work. Thank you.
Hi Jake! I'm a sound tech from Nova Scotia, Canada, and your videos have been a great resource to help grow the production from my church! My question is this; how does Jesse integrate Ableton into the broadcast production? I would also like to use the pitch correction on live streams.
Ok...just getting into this myself as a worship leader. Does FOH use the Waves Auto-Tune plugin also? I've got it working at a base level in my FOH console, but we will be transitioning to a recording booth like this (*with a much lower budget!) within a few months and wanted to know. Thanks!
What an amazing job on your video it's awesome!! For me being new to the worship Audio/Video production team i'm to improve our process and I loved your wisdom with this video. We are a very small church with a behringx32 board and I'm having a terrible time trying to get the mix output for live streaming. Any tid bits would be great.
Awesome video Jake! I would love to know more about how to set levels when mixing live sound for church. There’s very little info out there to learn this in a church environment. Setting up a console and setting levels is really important. Would be great if you talked more about this or made a video. Gby!
What's the best way of getting rid of ground noise. Even after power conditioner and everything is plugged into the same Outlet most likely I think it's a building groud
Hi Jake I'm from El Salvador. Ours is a small church with a congregation up to 225. We don''t record our services. But can you give us more detailed info about Redrocks Church (connections, computer specifications, the way they split or share the channels, and so on...)
Hi Jake, Absolutely loving the passion you guys have for excellence. I'm from a church in the twin island Republic of Trinidad & Tobago, in the Caribbean. We're looking at transitioning to a digital board. I'm really hooked on Dante, and would like to know what Dante equipment Jesse uses throughout your network. Blessings to your team. Love what you guys are doing.
Churchfront with Jake Gosselin Thanks for the quick reply. The Midas M32 board is one of the options we're considering. Great to know its your recommendation. My understanding is that the M32 uses the AES50 protocol, but not Dante. What Dante equipment do you guys use on stage to send the Dante channels to the M32? I also saw where a Dante card can be used in M32 card slot.
Hey Jake awesome work God bless you. so in my church we want to livestream on facebook and youtube what would be your advice for sound is there any other option apart from taking it straight from the mixer
Hey Remi Um not really. For a live stream, the only 2 options are to either take the direct FOH mix, or setting up a separate room/console to do a mix for broadcast. If it doesn’t need to be live, you could multitrack the service and mix it later in a DAW or Studio of some sort. Then post it on a later date.
Nice video! Subscribed! Mixing livestream audio for a few years in church. Never used autotune for a live mix. Wondering how he routes the vocals through albeton and changes the key? Is it midi mapped or with a controller? Curious if all the vocals get autotune, leadvoc and bgv’s?
Thanks for subscribing! Shortly after this video, Jesse built a hardware midi controller for changing the keys between songs. I'm not exactly sure how the auto-tune is routed, but it's something I've been meaning to ask him.
My church out of Summerville SC is thinking of video for our service. I know the Behringer x32 has something called mix matrices, how do you actually set those up?
We don't use a matrix we just dedicate a mix buss and use sends on fader to create the mix. We then output that buss to a xlr output and feed to our atem switcher and video distribution system. Works well. This is done remotely by remoting into the board from an iPad or phone and mixed by the Livestream operator.
Great Video! I have a couple questions though. What Autotune and distressor plugin is Jesse running? the other question is at what point do you recommend the investment in the waves system or equivalent? we have an x32 board, streaming with Livestream/Facebook Live, and are really trying to improve our audio in the livestream. Jesse mentioned grabbing another console and upgrading from there, so should it be before or after another console and what comes in between? Thanks
@StringerNews1 I like those options....We are also using an X32 at my church. Now I'm using matrix for my live feed not bad but I know it could be much better with a separate mix. Tell me more about Dante...can I use that kind of system with an X32?
What windows pc must I get for my Church in order to record audio, do live streams. MAC is to expensive for us... what Microsoft PC will be the best one to use for all this.? I really need your help l Waiiting for your help!! Greetings from South Africa
Are you looking to build a little broadcast studio like this one? Jesse talks about that toward the end of the video. Probably the best first step is to purchase another digital console and put it in a different room with some decent studio monitor speakers. Then you can create a completely independent mix for broadcast. I would look into the Behringer X32 series of mixers. Probably the best bang for your buck.
Yeah genelec or barefoot speakers would be top tier and then down to KRKs at the low end. What equally or almost more important is you getting used to whichever speaker you choose. The better you know your speakers the better your mix will translate.
I just watched from Ipoh. It's about 200Km from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 🇲🇾.

Nice set up, but have you seen Elevation's?

Lol. Have you seen Hillsong's?
I have many times. The incredible thing about Elevations is that it’s basically the same at every location they have....and even more in depth at Ballantine.
Have you seen planetshaker’s?
I also agree with you! Stuff like this is inspiring and gives great ideas for what is possible!
Thanks, Lucas!

church leader here . not ashemed to say that i love what you do but i don't have money to buy your courses .but l'd love too
I like the idea, still trying to figure out what is Dante and how to get that routed exactly for the two separate signals
This is great thanks for sharing
Would love to see how this is all set up!!
Why did you go straight to the drummer when you said if anyone messes up ?😂

Hey dudes. First of all, LOVE this video. This is a magnificent set up. Second, where’s that Dante video tho?
Stay tuned. In a couple weeks

Can you do a video on how to start recording video and audio live
Good video, watching from Australasian. I go to hillsong
Thank you! Can’t wait to visit Australia some day!

Hey jake I have a question how would I receive raw audio from the stage box if I’m already sending that audio to my front of house console ?
Coo Guy, thanks 👍
Are there any equipment that is locking sync the video and audio? Also, is there a reason why Jessie didn't use the Waves auto tune?
Its all fun and games when you got budget for all the shiny stuff. You can get 90% of of the same product with less complexity.
Great stuff !!!! Just suscribed.
My Church is about to buy sounds recording and sounds system for the full
But l will need someone here to assist with ideas.
Does anyone know what Audio meters is that on either side of the Console?

Greetings from South Africa
Some great ones are HP Z workstations, if you look on eBay you can find some systems for under$1000 USD that will be able to record and broadcast.
14-20db?!!!!! Oh my goodness
Iam from India..
Jake! What is the best gear to start out with putting a little studio together?
Are you looking to build a little broadcast studio like this one? Jesse talks about that toward the end of the video. Probably the best first step is to purchase another digital console and put it in a different room with some decent studio monitor speakers. Then you can create a completely independent mix for broadcast. I would look into the Behringer X32 series of mixers. Probably the best bang for your buck.
More looking towards a home studio. I have a MacBook pro and I am looking to get an actual iMac. What studio speakers do you recommend?
Yeah genelec or barefoot speakers would be top tier and then down to KRKs at the low end. What equally or almost more important is you getting used to whichever speaker you choose. The better you know your speakers the better your mix will translate.
I will look into them! Thanks for the advice Jesse!
How about spending more money on the needy rather than updating all that hardware?
