church has just made the transition from a primitive mic/individual amp set-up to a dandy mixer/power amp/monitor arrangement, complete with snake cable tripping up half the sanctuary. which has given rise to some reflections:
1. a mixer has a come-hither appeal, enticing all manner of persons to want to operate it.
2. good sound, alas, cannot be bought. it must needs be bled out of some poor serf.
3. the more equipment you have, the earlier you had better reach church on sunday.
4. there are as many expectations of a sound system as there are people attending church.
this saturday, there will be an attempt to enlighten several benighted volunteers and transform them into miracle workers.
