This month’s LDSTech broadcast will focus on satellite broadcasts and meetinghouse audio. Scott Poulsen, senior technical support engineer, will discuss how to set up a meetinghouse for a satellite broadcast as well as prepare backup plans and strategies in the event that problems arise.

Glen Meyer, senior engineer for meetinghouse audio solutions, will also provide an overview of the meetinghouse sound systems, how to use audio inputs and outputs, the different equipment that is or should be available, how and where to store the equipment, and how to obtain replacement or additional pieces as needed.

As time permits, the broadcast will also cover wireless microphones, assistive listening systems for the hearing impaired, basic choir miking, and microphone positioning.
