My Insane Church AVL Rack Build

[@herrnefp89]

you should look into LTT Magnetic Cable management Equipment. They are a little pricey.. but SOOO worth it!

[@otter-pro]

I prefer the black table skirt, and all of our tables have them along the entire length, and makes the setup even cleaner than without. DJ booths have panels which are similar but table skirts are much cheaper. Also provides some privacy so our volunteer's legs are not so exposed.

Cool rack build! Love some of the ideas and unique strategies used here. Definitely taking some of these ideas for our church!

[@awafula]

Lovely sanctuary you have there. Looks very nice.

[@annasoH323]

Really cool what you were able to do here! We're at a spot where reorganizing into a rack probably makes the most sense. However, we presently have a mixture of things which aren't rack-compatible so that'll be an interesting challenge (that and cable management... ugh...)

[@AVLbyNexus]

AVL companies: Yo, make sure you separate your gear into different racks to keep it all organized. Jake: Hold my beer.

[@kinghengkeithleung3931]

so happy for you for the improvements

[@Archangelrey1]

I been looking at these for cable management, the LLT MCM Arches from LLT.

[@Darielcummins]

Looks great. Love seeing the progress with the building.

[@ajosh498]

Awesome rack build! That room should probably have some AC and ventilation. Those units will create some heat which won’t be good long term.

[@Churchfront]

Yeah, we’re working on that

[@robwalker8530]

I agree. Def some cooling. I would have also dropped a second 20amp circuit in that room (looks like there is just one quad outlet). And finally instead of that raceway, I would have used standard j hooks or a mesh cable tray. So much easier to service. But they are putting more thought into it than a lot of other installations I have seen, so they are in good hands.

@@robwalker8530 totally, i'll be updating this more over time. learned a ton on this build.

[@jeremymiller9832]

When you leave gaps remember to use blanking panels. Racks and rack units are designed to not have space between them. They draw cold air from the from and exhaust hot out the back. Leaving open gaps can hurt thermal performance more than you would expect

[@edsongs8545]

Parabéns Pelo trabalho!!

[@dahlonlee8827]

@churchfront where did the standind desk come from?

[@jeremythomas2865]

One question I would have is what happens when a piece of equipment fails. Someone has to race around the other side of the building into a rack room to do the trouble shooting? I like the reasoning for security etc but it fills me with anxiety .

[@josiahroman1457]

Looks great! What projectors are you using for your main screens?

[@joshcapatch4368]

1:12 I like the pacifier sitting on the keyboard. Is that used for tone-shaping?

[@Churchfront]

no clue how it got there. We have a 6 month old but she doesn't do pacifiers

[@tth_cake7736]

Build a black box that wraps around the legs of the table then add a door on one side for access.

[@bencole7270]

So many helpful ideas! Have you found a way to remotely boot up the mac minis?

[@MatthewLucio]

Nice teaser! Did you relent on your opposition to PTZOptics? I thought you said that the CR-N500s were the cheapest PTZs you would use?

[@bingepremiere9579]

What is the Mac mini's CPU/ GPU Specs for your Computer Graphics?

[@RichAndDianaWilliams]

Spotted the efnote kit. How’s that working out for your drummers?

[@Archangelrey1]

How do you remotely turn on the system from the table?

[@Malvear1825]

Wait, you went back with Resi? I thought you’d moved away from them due to their corporate ownership situation.

[@MatuOfficialTV]

Build a nice looking wood furniture around your cables.

[@djspecialpaul]

Nice video and very interessting.

[@mrovi789]

Nice building, also glat that you migrated from trying to sell us stuff to something more useful :)

[@Churchfront]

If I couldn't sell stuff, I wouldn't be buying all the gear which makes the video useful 😂

[@mrovi789]

@@Churchfront at least now is not that obvious :))

[@truthpravda100]

all that gear and singers still need auto-tune

[@BossmodePictures]

Public schools: Teaching science using overhead projectors and chalkboards. Churches: Using gear like shown in the video to tell people about imaginary friends...

Too long of ad! :(
