Very smooth sound, can handle pretty much anything you throw at them. We are a contemporary style of worship church, typically one electric on stage at all times, sometimes two, live drums, etc. I am very happy with what they produce. Brad, I love them.

I'm considering purchasing some M1d's. We do pretty rocking music. How do they sound in your room? Travis. I’m considering purchasing some M1d’s. We do pretty rocking music.

Thought I would tackle the human element.... I have mixed a lot of people in my day and the sure fire way to produce a good mix is to....MAKE THE BAND HAPPY! lol. On a serious note...if the bands happy they play better. When everyone in the band is kicking on all cylinders mixing becomes very easy. The main problem of mixing in a church is you have to please not just the band, but the 800 "trained" ears that listen every week. To many cooks in the kitchen! The producer and engineer have to have a relationship of: "A" give and take AND "B" each others back. A house divided against it's self will fall. Tuff but tru! Plenty of good suggestion posted here.

Amanda and I tag team the editing because she is more sensitive to certain things than I am and vice versa. I'll spend an hour working on color and cropping and she'll spend the same hour on fixing background distractions. We're a team and couldn't do it without each other.

(btw, seeing how our eval mtg. took a jolt off the track on Monday, I may have neglected to say that I thought the mix was great in the sanctuary, and thoroughly enjoyed myself as a worshiper).

I'll walk back in a few minutes later and my ears hear different stuff. When first mixing, our ears get used to the sound, after mixing for a while, an off sound can sound "ok."
