Open AV planning & upgrade pathCurrent Sunday production system
The current documented system combines the Mackie 2404-VLZ4 front-of-house analog console, Shure wireless microphone receivers, a Sony FDR-AX53 4K Handycam, a Mevo Plus camera, and a YoloLiv YoloBox Pro used as the portable livestream switcher/encoder. A Mac mini workstation is also present at the AV position.
The attached September 29, 2026 photographs document the equipment as installed. Exact cable-by-cable signal routing should still be verified before relying on the website as a wiring diagram.
