The Benefits of Pastor Microphones for Houses of Worship

Many churches around the globe have had tremendous success in switching to the use of an earset or headset microphone. The benefits of using an earworn or headset microphone in houses of worship are many.

  • Superior Mic Placement

  • Freedom of Movement

  • Healthier Alternative

Superior Mic Placement

Cathedral of St. Eugene - Rev. Jeffrey Keyes

Point Source earworn and headset microphones offer users in church and house of worship settings amazing sound quality. Because of the fixed proximity of the mic to the mouth—even when speakers turn their heads—the sound output remains consistent.

Cathedral of Saint Eugene recently upgraded their pastor microphones to EMBRACE Microphones, and even with a "NO SEE" boom option, had this to say:  "Some of the Clergy didn't want to use ear worn boom microphones as they look too much like "performance" and liturgy doesn't lend itself to that look. Now the sound is as good as any body attached microphone without all the fabric noise that vestments can create. Also the vocal presence is the same no mater where the head may be pointing. In liturgy the sound would often change drastically during solemn bows and other moments of reverence.”

-- Deacon Russ Bowden

 

Freedom of Movement

When using an earworn microphone, pastors can more easily connect with the congregation. By being able to freely move about the stage or altar pastors can better express themselves while delivering dynamic sermons and presentations. Our SERIES8 mics are available in either omnidirectional, or cardioid pick up patterns for maximum feedback rejection even as pastors walk-in front of the loudspeakers.

Healthier Alternative

The economics of Point Source Audio microphones allow pastors to have their own microphone. Sharing microphones, a common practice in many houses of worship can lead to germs being spread through the mouthpiece and the handle. Germs can live on microphones for several days and transmit viruses and bacteria to other users. A personal earset microphone can help pastors prevent illness, resulting in less missed services and a healthier pastoral team.

Best Tech for Pastors and Production Teams

Every audio challenge varies depending on the pastor or performer's speaking style and wearing preference. Important factors to consider are the speakers' vocal projection, movement on stage, and of course, the acoutics of the audio space itself. Here are some of the most popular microphone and audio headsets for houses of worship teams and solution specific features.
