Tips & Tricks
Bridging the Communication Gap between the Worship Team and Technical Staff
By Michael Hill, Sennheiser
I have traveled on the road for years both in front of the microphone and in a technical capacity, and I have sometimes witnessed a great divide between techs and performers. Oddly, many times the church staff is the guiltiest. Once I was traveling with a group as the tech director, and during the show I would come on stage and sing a song with the band. It was often comical how the pastor/church staff would treat me as a technician before the concert, compared to how they treated me as performer. Not all were guilty of this, but it happened more often than not.

It's almost as if techs are treated as the second class citizens of the worship team.

What worship ministries are saying about Sennheiser...
"I also would like to thank you and Sennheiser for not only your assistance with the whole TVBD fiasco, but your support of the H.O.W. market in general. It is truly remarkable these days to have a manufacturer of the size of Sennheiser that allows its personnel to interact with the end-user not only through outlets such as CSC, but the rapid personal response to crazy tech guys like me! It is why I can recommend using your products so readily."
Jay Ballard, Director of Technical Ministries, First Baptist Church of Plant City, Florida
