FCC A/V Main Page
If a hand-held or Pulpit/Lectern mic is needed for an FCC event, here are some basic instructions:
- Open the audio desk rolltop and doors using the keys in the audio desk lock box. (Code=1903)
- Turn on the sound equipment using the ONE marked rocker switch on the power sequencer
(top of left cabinet section)
- Locate a hand-held (HH) mic in the audio desk drawer and turn it on.
- Make sure that the Mackie mixer channels for Pulpit or Lectern or HH1 or HH2 are not Muted
- Handheld and Pulpit/Lectern mics should now be active
Ideally... only activate the microphone that you need.
Other things to check:
- Make sure the Pulpit & Lectern mics are plugged-in to the chancel floor XLR jacks (Mic5 & Mic6)
(these often get unplugged when cleaning)
- Check dislplay on hand-held mic for adequate battery (2 or 3 bars).
(replace with 9V batteries from the audio desk drawer)
- Mackie mixer levels are at their default setting and are not Muted.
