A system can look incredible during commissioning. Sunday morning is where the real test happens. Can volunteers run it with confidence? Every Sunday tells the truth.

Before we ask about speakers or cameras, we ask about people. Who's running the system? How many volunteers? What's creating friction? The right equipment comes after the right questions.

Anyone can recommend equipment. The harder job is understanding your ministry, your people, your room, your future, and your budget. That's where good systems begin.

Confidence is a design feature. The best church technology isn't measured by specs. It's measured by how confidently a volunteer can walk into the room and run a service.

Complexity has a cost. Every extra step. Every unnecessary button. Every workaround. Someone pays for it on Sunday... usually a volunteer.

Technology should lower stress. A great AVL system doesn't make your team work harder. It makes volunteers more confident. It makes leaders less distracted. It makes Sundays more predictable. That's good design.

The best AVL system isn't the one everyone notices. It's the one nobody has to think about. When technology fades into the background, ministry moves to the forefront. #gearfollowsvision

The first-ever community for people in church production that is built around connecting your character to your craft. All too often, church production teams find their identities more in what they do rather than who God has made them to be. youtu.be/qS5aF3t5nsc

We're looking to start 2023 off STRONG! Which is why we're hiring new AVL Technicians to join the team. If you like using your hands to build things and traveling the country, you might be a perfect fit. Head over to summitintegrated.com/careers… for more info.

Would you rather: Audio Engineer Edition Would you rather mix a full-blown Christmas service (with orchestra) on a fully analog mixer? or Would you rather have to re-wrap 100 XLR cables that the middle school students decided to wrap to "help out" the production team?

Our methods may have been updated since this photo from 2019, but our team's drive for excellence has always been the same!

The truth hurts, sometimes.

Anyone else have a “production training” go down like this? No worries. We’re here to help. summitintegrated.com

What console are you mixing on this weekend???

We like to make stuff. Some metal stuff. Some 3D-printed stuff. Some custom laser engraved stuff. Ya know, stuff! Which is why we have an entire section of our warehouse dedicated to making that stuff.

LINK is so much more than just these videos we're shooting. Don't get us wrong, the video content is INCREDIBLE and super pertinent to church production teams. But the cohorts & 1-on-1 coaching are really where it's at. So head over to link.summitavl.com to sign up.

We are shooting more content for LINK this week! Jeff Sandstrom, Jake Cody, Nick Kofahl, and Tyson Wiens are all dropping some huge wisdom bombs this week. Make sure you're signed up for LINK so you don't miss out. link.summitavl.com/

Shout out to all the #UnsungHeroesOfSunday heading into the weekend. Make it one for the books!

The next round of cohorts are starting soon, so if you've been thinking about it, make sure you sign up for LINK as soon as you can! link.summitavl.com/

Word on the street is we're hiring! It's also the word in this post. I guess what we're trying to say is we want you to join the team because it'd be super cool and fun and stuff. So what are you waiting for? Apply here: indeed.com/cmp/Summit-Integr…?
