The Church Sound Podcast with Prentiss L. Thompson

Veteran audio engineer Frank Brown Jr. joins Prentiss L. Thompson for a practical conversation about mixing drums, developing your ear, and building a strong foundation as a church sound engineer.

Frank shares lessons from his years behind the console, including how to approach the kick, snare, toms, cymbals, and the overall drum mix without allowing the kit to overpower the worship experience. They also discuss microphone selection and placement, EQ, dynamics, working with musicians, and why great sound begins with listening before touching the controls.
This episode goes beyond settings and equipment. It explores the patience, preparation, discipline, and musical understanding required to produce a drum mix that supports the song, serves the congregation, and brings energy to the room.
Whether you are a new church sound volunteer or an experienced engineer looking to sharpen your skills, Frank offers valuable insight that can help you become more intentional and confident behind the console.
