Make Your Church's Mix Sound Awesome,
Using The Gear You Already Have!

Learn how to create exciting, engaging, great sounding mixes… even if you're brand new to running sound!

"I know my mix sounds terrible... but I just can't figure out why."

It all started when I was 17. I was playing guitar at a local youth group when the pastor looked over at me and said these fateful four words: "Can you run sound?"

My response? "Of course I can!"

The truth? I didn't know the first thing about running sound. But I wasn't about to let that stop me, and over the next few years I spent every spare moment learning everything I could about what makes a great live mix in a church environment, and through the process I landed positions at some of the largest churches in the country and started working with major touring artists.

Have you ever heard a mix that truly moved your soul and spoke to you on a deep emotional level? Maybe it was at a concert, or a conference, or at a large church you were attending. 

We all want our mixes to have that kind of sound, don't we? We want to help lead our congregations in meaningful and engaging worship... but all too often, the reality is that our Sunday morning mix is harshabrasiveunclear, and frankly, difficult to listen to

I still remember one time a lady came up to the sound booth and told me that worship sounded so loud and harsh that she'd be leaving the church if it didn't get better

I had been running sound as a volunteer for a couple years and I was absolutely crushed. Just a moment before she came up to me I was thinking that my mix was sounding pretty good... but after hearing what she said... I thought about quitting right there on the spot. 

I bet you've gotten a complaint or two like that too, right? 

I remember thinking "Maybe those amazing, beautiful mixes I want to create are reserved for the true "professionals", or for churches with seemingly unlimited gear budgets..."

A few months later, I got a part time job as a tech assistant at one of those big churches with a huge budget for all the latest greatest gear. But when I was finally allowed to step behind the console and have a shot mixing during a rehearsal... things didn't go as expected. Not... even... close.

After the band rehearsed the first two songs the senior tech director walked up and pulled me aside. He looked at me skeptically and said "Sorry man... I'm going to take over from here... you've still got a lot to learn."

In that moment...I realized the problem. It wasn't that I needed better gear, a better sounding room, or better musicians... the problem... was ME.

I knew I had to totally change the way I approached mixing. To change the way I thought about EQcompressioneffects, and balancing a mix. I knew it would be drastic... unexpected... maybe a little unorthodox. 

It took me over a year to put it all together. But when I did... it all clicked. No feedback, no muddy or unclear mixes, no more complaints from the congregation. And it was all thanks to the little things I did each time I stepped behind the mixer.

Take a look at this email I got back in 2010 from the lead pastor at that church.

Here's How This Approach Completely

Changed The Way I Mix...

It was that experience made me realize something...

Not all church audio engineers get the opportunity to become the amazing sound guys/gals that they really can be. And that breaks my heart.

They deserve better, and the church deserves better.

So years later, after starting the Worship Sound Guy community with tens of thousands of followers across Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, made a promise to myself: that I would do whatever I could to help other church sound guys/gals become the best church audio engineers they can be.

So I started breaking down the "system" I used  to become an in-demand audio techs for churches of all sizes, major touring artists and festivals. 

And today, I'm excited to announce the system is ready for release.

Introducing: Sound Guy Essentials

Finally, I've put together a step-by-step method to help church audio engineers benefit from all the research I've done over the past 10 years.

I know that without the incredible leaders and mentors that I had by my side, I would never have made it to where I am now, so one of my goals since starting the Worship Sound Guy community was to find a way to give back to church audio techs around the world who are looking for that one thing that can take their mix from good to great, the one thing that can help them feel more confident and have more fun every time they step behind the sound board.

Overcome Church

SO simple!

This course makes it all SO simple. Johnny and Matt teach in a style that's easy to understand and fun to engage with. It's awesome how easy it makes it to train young team members. The course has also given me a back to basics ground roots experience even after 20 yrs in sound production in a worship environment. Have been able to take principles learnt in sessions and apply the straight away into the next weeks worship experience mix.

Jesse H.

Just get it!

This course is 1000% worth the money. Just get it! The content is on point and is great for new sound techs starting out or even more experienced sound techs too. I used this with some of my new sound techs on the team and it really helped bring them up to speed to start mixing at our church must faster than they ever could have without this course!

Gene S.

Freelance FoH Engineer

A huge difference in my skill!

After about 15 years of running sound, I ran across this course and was very intrigued. I have to admit that after going through all of the course material, it really has made a huge difference in not only my skill level but also in my basic understanding of mixing sound. It's amazing after years of sound experience, that simply reviewing and reapplying the basic principles can make such a difference. You guys bring a lot of clarity to things that are easily misunderstood. I highly recommend this program to anyone, from the newbie to the guy or gal who's been at if for years.

Who is Worship Sound Guy?

Let's get to know your teachers! Matt and Johnny have been mixing professionally in the church world for over 30 years and have become some of the most in-demand front of house and monitor engineers in the Atlanta area. They've mixed for artists like David Crowder, Leeland, Aaron Keyes, & Rend Collective, and for churches including Free Chapel, Northpoint Community Church, Victory World Church, and BigStuf Camps


Matt and Johnny started Worship Sound Guy with one simple belief: "every church deserves great sound" and over the past 5 years they've helped over 2,000 churches around the world experience the amazing transformation that happens when sound guys and gals are equipped with the right tools and training to make great mixes.


Now it's your turn to experience that same transformation! 

Don't Just Take Our Word For It!

Here are just a few of the emails we've received about our student's experiences...

"I've got a degree in audio production but I feel like I've learned so much from the information you're putting out!"

"Get this course! Just do it. There's nothing else out there like it, and it's been the single best investment I've made as a sound guy."

"Everyone on the team went through the course and not only do our mixes sound 10000% better, they sound consistent!"

"...I've always thought our mixes were pretty good...but I feel like I finally understand how much more I can learn and how much better my mixes can get"


That sounds perfect!

I want better mixes!!


How Do You Learn Live Sound?

Before we created this course, I spent a lot of time looking for ways to get training in audio production for myself and for my team. I read through endless forums and Facebook Groups (they were mostly packed with bad information and pointless arguing), I watched hours of videos on YouTube (which were sometimes ok, but not nearly in-depth enough) and finally, after a lot of searching, I actually ended up spending 4 years and over $50,000 in Audio Engineering School because there just weren't any other options at the time. I learned a ton in college and I'm thankful for my time there, but let's face it... there has to be a better way than spending all that money for a bachelor's degree, right?


When I was first on staff as the tech director of a local church, I knew I needed to train my team and give them perspectives beyond just my own, so I contacted several experienced audio techs from churches around the area to see if they'd be willing to come in and do some training with my team. The cost? Between $500 and $2,000 for a single training session! Let's face it... that's just not in the budget for most churches. 


Those experiences are what lead us to create this course.

You're getting hours and hours of pro level training...

and it's not $50,000... not $2,000... in fact, it's not even $500...
