Sharp Memorial United Methodist Church

At Data & Sound, we are proud to partner with local churches to enhance their worship experience through innovative audio solutions. Recently, we had the privilege of working with United Methodist Church, where the existing sound system was becoming difficult to manage and no longer met the needs of the congregation. Our goal was to provide a modern, user-friendly, and high-quality audio setup that would allow the church to focus on what matters most—connecting with their community through worship.

One of the biggest improvements was upgrading the church’s audio console to a state-of-the-art digital unit. This system can be controlled remotely, making it easy for staff or volunteers to adjust sound levels from anywhere in the building. To simplify operations even further, we programmed custom presets. With just the push of a button, the soundboard automatically sets levels for a Sunday service, choir performance, or special event. This eliminates technical stress and ensures smooth, consistent sound every time.

We also replaced the main speakers to achieve complete audio coverage throughout the sanctuary. The new system provides clear, balanced sound so every member of the congregation—whether seated in the front row or the back—can fully experience the message and music. The difference in clarity and quality is immediately noticeable, creating a more immersive worship environment.

Another key part of the project was addressing the room’s acoustics. The church had been dealing with unwanted echo and sound reflections that made speech and music less intelligible. To solve this, we installed strategically placed acoustical panels. These panels absorb excess sound, resulting in a cleaner, more natural listening experience.

The transformation has been remarkable. Services are now easier to run, sound better than ever, and the system is simple enough for anyone to operate. United Methodist Church now has a reliable audio system that supports their mission and enhances the spiritual connection of every service.

At Data & Sound, we believe that technology should serve people, not complicate their lives. This project is a perfect example of how the right audio solutions can make a meaningful impact on a community.
