The Day The Sound Board Died

Yesterday morning we started our sound check and soon it seemed that there was no sound to check. It turned out that 40 minutes before our service the sound board stopped producing sound. It made for an interesting morning.

I found myself thinking that one of these days, we'll look back and remember the day the sound board died. For now, we're taking it to a repair shop to find out what will be entailed in fixing it. The situation is only slightly more complicated by the fact that we don't own the equipment. It was loaned to us indefinitely, with an agreement to return it when we could secure our own equipment. Obviously the useful life of technology is limited, but I hope we can find a good solution soon.


For what it's worth...

If you know someone that would like to make a tax-deductible donation of cash or gift in kind, here is our suggestion:

Behringer EUROPOWER PMP3000 16-Channel Powered Mixer (Pmp3000)


Gator G-Tour 19x21 Mixer Road Case

If that board belongs to the church that I think it does...I know them pretty well. They are a quite gracious group. They will have no problem burying a system that died in the line of duty! They may even send a card to the funeral.

Sounds like the same church to me. We've got it at the shop now being diagnosed. I'll keep you informed.
