@@ZachBrownMedia You mention 3 Displays (Laptop, Audience, and Stage I'm assuming). Apple has stated that the M1 can only have 2 Displays, and docks don't extend that limitation. Are you saying that the CalDigit Dock is letting you run 3 different displays?

Hey Zack! Great video as far as finding budget options to upgrade your set up. I would love to see the practical side as far as what plugs into what/where. As a worship pastor who is simply wading through the AV world, I'm not a super tech savvy person so it wasn't obvious to me. Thanks!

Will definitely implement some of this in my church. Thank you for the video. Off-topic question: Do you also record audio from the sermons - and if so, how? We've got an M1 Mac and the StudioLive 32.4.2AI as well, but PreSonus have dropped support for FireWire, thus making it harder to record audio using the PreSonus Capture software.
@ZachBrownMedia Жыл бұрын
We don’t record audio at this campus currently! Though one way to get around this is to create a mixbus on the Presonus and run that out of a Aux out or XLR out and run that into a audio interface to then record in Logic, GarageBand, etc. Basically the same process just less convenient

@Zach Brown. I have a mac studio which i've installed pro presenter 7 on. I have two monitors connected as a display for the mac studio, just like normal cpu-monitor connection. I have hdmi splitter connected via hdmi cable to the mac, and the hdmi spliter is connected to a projector and two tv. At the moment, only the screen of the of the mac is showing on the projector, if the propresenter is running, it doesn’t display/extend the output to either the projector or the two tv. So at the moment, I'm stuck as I'm not able to display any presentation, live output etc. Please kindly help.

I am trying to learn Mac at the same time as I am trying to learn new software. We have the iMac 27”. And 1 stage displays and two audience screens (projectors all 3-audience is on a splitter). Having issues getting stage (back wall) to display. The last software I used was churchview a few years ago. This church did BetterView but the computer was giving out and the software was no longer supported. Any hints for someone coming from PC to iMac to make it easier? I am getting a bit frustrated.

There are a couple reasons a stage display might not be showing up: - Is the Stage Display button turned on (top right corner) - make sure there’s a separate monitor or video output you’re sending the stage screen to. You can adjust settings in the screen configuration page If you can’t find it you can schedule a zoom call and we can get it working for you calendly.com/churchmediatraining/pp7coaching

We recently started using a similar setup for our church, but with a Mac Mini. We're using the ultrastudio monitor for our stage display. We ran into the issue where the stage display is displaying with a blue tint. While it isn't the end of the world, it would be nice to figure this out. I've already replaced the BM, and tested with a friend's MacBook which also had a blue tint on the output. I can use BM Media express to display a clean image, so it seems like a Propresenter issue. I have had quite a long back and forth with Renewed Vision already with no resolution yet. Any thoughts on settings I could check?

If i want to send to broadcast also is that set up applicable?
@ZachBrownMedia2 жыл бұрын
Yes you can, but you have to be thoughtful with your setup. There are only two Thunderbolt 3 Ports on the computer.. 1 of those is taken by the UltraStudio Monitor and 1 is taken by the CalDigit Dock. The CalDigit Dock also has 1 Thunderbolt 3 Port that is made avaiable to you, but that port is needed for the USBC to HDMI adapter that runs to the Stage Screen. So you don't have another Thunderbolt 3 port to run an additional video out via another UltraStudio Monitor.. so there are two main options you'd have. 1. Don't use a Stage screen and instead have the main audience screen run from the SDI Splitter to the back for a reference of what slide is on. Then that opens up a screen that you can dedicate for broadcast 2. Upgrade to the Extrenal PCIe Chassis that I laid out later in this video.. then you'll have up to four video outs that you can use (Not counting the computer's second display)
