Most microphones are available in both wired and wireless versions. Every wireless microphone system must operate on a specific frequency. VHF systems are in very wide use right now, and are exceptionally affordable. UHF systems, which operate in the higher UHF frequency range, are better suited to multi-channel, multiple-frequency systems. Though they offer no benefit in terms of sound quality they do offer greater isolation from interference, which provides greater stability and reliability when using multiple wireless microphones.
Both VHF and UHF frequency bands are shared with a large number of other devices including TV stations, communications equipment and a large number of wireless microphone systems. Because of this sharing there is the possibility that someone else (anotherchurch) in the area may be using the same frequency. You should not use two microphones with the same frequency. This will result in interference and render the system useless. Manufacturers often sell a wireless handheld and lavaliere or instrument microphone package. Although these systems are designed for individual users, they are not intended to be used simultaneously. Each mic can be used with the same receiver, however they cannot operate at the same time.
Wireless microphones are usually sold with one or two antennas. Dual antenna or "diversity" systems are able to avoid dropouts because they have two antennas and two receiver channels. Because the chances that there will be simultaneous dropouts at both antennas are extremely low, diversity receivers provide almost complete immunity from dropouts. Diversity wireless systems will almost always have better operating range than similar non-diversity systems.
Experiencing Worship, The Study
Used by churches all over the world to help teach worship, the Experiencing Worship study can help your worship team too.
Your team will learn why we worship and gain a better understanding of how to worship.
One user said..."Your 5 week study course has made a tremendous impact on my life in the study of worship... I would like to express my thanks for a well written study course that leads into a higher realm of praise and worship."
