[QUOTE="brian maddox, post: 41869, member: 158"] Re: Digital mixer - pros and cons? i totally agree that avioms and wedges don't mix. i DO think that personal mix systems with ears can work very well, provided that there is an appropriate amount of time devoted to training everyone how to use them. i did this with my team about 2 years ago. wasn't the most pleasant month of my life, but things have been smooth sailing ever since. i'm not saying that personal mix systems with ears are the solution for this church. but a hybrid system [where maybe the band is on avioms and the singers on wedges or vis versa] may be worth considering. i do agree with bennett that it may be time for some reining in. this church seems to have a bad case of 'expectation creep'. delivering 8-10 wedge mixes from FOH with expectations of fluid changes to those mixes during service is just not realistic, especially if you want/need a volunteer crew to be able to deliver it consistently. they need to seriously consider a separate monitor rig, or they need to scale back their 'needs'. and getting a more capable FOH console, digital OR analog, is not going to make this situation any better...
