In December, HOW Focus reported on the growing profile of independent AV consultants in designing church media systems. That report has prompted at least one worship specialist to point out the pitfalls that may come with this trend, and to raise the call for national industry action to upgrade performance and to protect clients. Neil Philpott, Product Development and Marketing Manager at dB Audio & Video in Gainesville, Ga., says his company, which specializes in worship facilities, has seen plenty of troubled projects arise from the efforts of unqualified consultants. "We are constantly given opportunity to bid on projects that were 'designed' by consulting firms. The common factor among them is a lack of understanding in even the basics of physics, design aptitude, and continuity," Philpott says. Click here for more...

The purchase, which was made in August, includes one Ah50X9.5ESM and two A22X7.8BERM lenses. They are fitted to three Ikegami HL60 cameras. Systems integrator VMI of St. Louis, Missouri, supervised the installation of the lenses and other video equipment for the Church. This marks Faith Life Church's first foray into video production, and they've been using the lenses for approximately two months so far. Currently, they're capturing services on Friday and Sundays and feeding those live to the Internet. The long-range plan is to broadcast an edited version of the Sunday morning services on one of the local network affiliate stations and shortly thereafter to a nationwide audience. The programs will air a week or two after the actual services. Local broadcasts are expected to begin by the end of this year, and the Church may produce DVDs also. Click here for more...

Sennheiser displays Evolution mic at NAMM Sennheiser is introducing the Evolution e840 professional cardioid vocal microphone at Winter NAMM 2004. Highly insensitive to feedback and featuring excellent vocal projection, the e840 dynamic microphone fits neatly between the e835 and the e845 in the popularly priced Evolution range. The e840 has been engineered to cut through high onstage levels by efficiently suppressing sounds emanating from outside its pick-up pattern and providing high gain before feedback. It is additionally fitted with a hum-compensating coil to reduce electromagnetic interference. The rugged metal housing, finished in gray with a gray basket, encloses a shock-mounted capsule, resulting in a durable microphone that is highly insensitive to handling noise and perfect for live performance.
