House of Worship / Live AudioEaster productions · 2019 · 2023 · 2024 · 2025 · 2026
Alfred Street
Baptist Church.
A choir-centered production.
Two audiences to consider.
For Easter 2026, MRD brought together live audio, stage monitoring, broadcast audio, multitrack recording, and backline—with the choir at the heart of the musical approach.

The MRD approach
Every event is a live recording.
That idea shapes how we prepare, route, mix, document and protect a production. The audience should hear the nuance. The artist should trust the stage. The client should feel that the technical details are already handled.
We build systems for clarity, repeatability and resilience—then operate them with the attention of a recording session.
What we do
Live event production.
The services you need.
From sound systems and engineering to broadcast audio, backline, and production coordination: start with the scope your event needs, then build the right team and plan.
Live Audio Production
FOH, monitors, system engineering, RF coordination, signal distribution and show-day operation for demanding live events.
Plan live audio ↗Broadcast + Recording
Dedicated broadcast workflows, isolated splits, high-channel-count multitrack capture and post-production-ready signal management.
Build the broadcast path ↗Backline Rental
Professional drum kits, percussion, keyboards, organs, guitar and bass systems—advanced and prepared around the artist’s actual requirements.
Advance backline ↗Production Support
Preproduction planning, technical advancing, infrastructure coordination and integration with staging, video, lighting and venue teams.
Coordinate the production ↗Built for serious productions
Systems built around the production.
Premium consoles, fiber-connected I/O, professional loudspeaker systems, isolated analog distribution, redundant network infrastructure and high-channel-count recording all matter. But they matter because of what they let the production accomplish.
The audience, musicians, and musical priorities inform the design.
Dedicated attention to the mix reaching the online audience.
Multitrack capture planned as part of the agreed production scope.

Explore broadcast and recordingHow we work
Preparation is part of the production.
Good show days are usually built before anyone rolls a case through the loading dock.
- 01
Advance
We define scope, riders, venue conditions, inputs, outputs, RF, networking, power, staffing and recording requirements.
- 02
Engineer
We build the system around the production rather than forcing the production into a preset package.
- 03
Execute
Load-in, verification, soundcheck and show operation follow a documented plan with room for real-world adaptation.
- 04
Capture
When required, the production leaves with organized multitrack material ready for archive, virtual soundcheck, broadcast or post-production.
Bring us in early
Let’s engineer the production
before show day.
Tell us what you’re building, where it’s happening and what the production needs to accomplish. We’ll start with the technical advance—not a generic equipment package.
