We had practice last night and set everyone to around 0 on the meter and the faders are not at unity when I bring them up? The mains set around -5. The pastor’s mic I can get preachers mic metering 0 put when you pull the fader up echoing sound an loud. Would the eq help with that? Also on the wirless mics where should the gain know be on the mic reciever. I noticed last night they were at 50% 75 and wide open.

The overall sound they are telling me it is too loud. I have added a 4;1 compression with gain of 6. Was told by the people who installed our system that most digital consoles with vocals and speaking should be set around -12 on meter but Allen and Heath it is at 0. So when I try to get the pafl up to around 0 then pull fader up it is very loud. So with digital the faders for mains or channel does not have to be hitting at unity. So the preamp is to increase the signal at line level and the fader is control the sound in house regardless where it is on the channel?
