Mike Wilson of Wilson Team Media, a professional audio and video services outfit in Charlotte, NC, not only handled the installation, but also overhauled the sound system from rewiring to retuning of the room, and, were able to do it with only a few weeks downtime for the church. “Knowing I had the personnel to do a console upgrade, I quickly began looking into what was on the market,” he added, “keeping in mind that we not only held weekly services, but were also coming up on our annual large-scale Christmas production. I knew what I needed was going to be one of just a few consoles out there -within TCBC’s price range, of course.
