There are several different ways to get multiple screens to do what we wanted them to do, but most of them are EXTREMELY expensive. It is all because we wanted the ability to show different images, the same image, AND one image across all three screens. The cherry on top...
The main component of the video system we use is a ridiculously awesome program called ProVideoPlayer by Renewed Vision. They’re the same people who make ProPresenter which is another great program we use for all of our song lyrics. Both programs are well worth the license cost and I have...
Some people have been asking about how we do what we do media wise at Oak Leaf. Since I am the Creative Arts Pastor and I did sort of put it all together, I guess it is only fitting that I write about what we use, why we use it,...
If your keep up with these sort of things, you’ve probably heard of the Fender Virtual Guitar which is a basic Fender Strat with the ability to change its own tuning and tone with a little added tech built into the guitar. The video below is Gibson’s version of the...
Just got back from playing up in Dalton, GA for a middle school retreat. As chance would have it, my pastor was the speaker for this event and I didn’t have a clue until the day before. In fact, we were invited completely separately and Tom (the Student Pastor) had...

We finished lead vocals on all but one song today. We might have been able to finish, but my voice was showing signs of wear and tear and I had to cut across town to OLC band practice. I’ll finish the last song next week and then work towards the...
More vocals. We finished just in time last night. I could tell my voice was starting to get a little scratchy. However, today, we’ve done 4 more songs (which includes one we redid because I didn’t like how my voice sounded) and I don’t even feel fazed. We’re breaking for...
Today is all vocals. All day with nothing but me singing. I enjoy it but, I don’t really get much of a break. I’m able to type this right now because the engineer had to get something out to FedEx before they closed and so I’m sitting here waiting to...
