From Jenesis Designs to CHG Audio: A New Focus on Church Audio
Updated: 6 days ago
Jenesis Designs is becoming CHG Audio. Here’s why we made the change and what it means for the churches we serve.
For years, Jenesis Designs Multimedia has helped churches and organizations with websites, graphics, video, photography, AV solutions, and other multimedia services.
But over time, one part of the business became our clear focus: church audio.
More specifically, helping churches improve the sound people hear during their online services.
That focus has led us to our next chapter. Jenesis Designs is becoming CHG Audio.
Why the Change?
Jenesis Designs started in 2017 with a broad multimedia vision. We wanted to help organizations use technology and creative media more effectively. As the years went on, our work increasingly centered around audio. We began working with churches across the country to improve their livestream sound. We saw firsthand how much of a difference a properly mixed livestream can make. A church can have great musicians, powerful preaching, a strong production team, and a good livestream setup. But if the audio is difficult to listen to, viewers may leave. That is where we found our strongest opportunity to help. Rather than continuing to offer a long list of multimedia services, we decided to focus on the area where we can provide the most value. Church audio.
Introducing CHG Audio
CHG Audio is the new name and direction for the business formerly known as Jenesis Designs Multimedia.
Our focus is simple: Helping churches deliver better audio online.
CHG Audio specializes in remote livestream mixing for churches, allowing an experienced audio engineer to mix a church's livestream audio remotely while the service is happening. This gives churches access to dedicated livestream mixing without requiring the church to have another audio engineer physically sitting in the room every week.
Our goal is not simply to make a livestream louder.
It is to create a mix that is:
Clear
Balanced
Consistent
Easy to listen to
Designed specifically for the online audience
Why Church Livestream Audio Matters
Your livestream may be someone's first experience with your church.
They may be watching from another state. They may be checking out the church before visiting in person. They may be watching because they cannot attend physically that week. Whatever the reason, the livestream needs to communicate clearly. One of the biggest mistakes churches can make is assuming that the front-of-house mix and livestream mix should sound the same. They serve two different audiences. The room needs to sound good in the room. The livestream needs to sound good through headphones, phones, televisions, computers, and other devices. That requires a different approach.
What Remote Livestream Mixing Looks Like
With CHG Audio, the church's livestream audio can be mixed remotely by an audio engineer while the service is taking place. Instead of relying completely on an automated mix or asking the same person to manage everything at once, the church can have a dedicated person focused on the online audience.
That means paying attention to things like:
Vocal clarity: Making sure the pastor, worship leaders, and other important voices are easy to understand.
Instrument balance: Making sure instruments support the mix without overpowering vocals or other important elements.
Overall consistency: Keeping the livestream from constantly jumping between quiet and loud.
Livestream processing: Using EQ, compression, limiting, and other processing where appropriate to create a cleaner listening experience.
Real-time adjustments: Making changes throughout the service as the music, speaking, and dynamics change.
The goal is simple: make the online service sound like it should.
What Happens to Jenesis Designs?
Jenesis Designs isn't disappearing. The experience, knowledge, and years of work behind Jenesis Designs are becoming the foundation of CHG Audio. The difference is the focus.
Instead of trying to be everything for everyone, we are concentrating on one specific problem: Helping churches improve their livestream audio.
This allows us to build better systems, develop better processes, and provide a better experience for the churches we serve.
A New Name. The Same Mission.
The name CHG Audio represents where we are going next. Our mission is still rooted in helping churches use technology to communicate their message effectively. The tools have changed. The focus has become clearer. And the need for quality church livestream audio continues to grow. Whether a church is already livestreaming every week or is working toward improving its online production, audio should be part of the conversation. Because a great livestream isn't just about what people see. It's also about what they hear.
What's Next for CHG Audio?
As CHG Audio grows, our focus will continue to be on helping churches create better online audio experiences. That includes remote livestream mixing, audio consulting, system improvements, and resources designed specifically for church production teams.
We will also continue sharing practical information about church audio, livestream mixing, audio systems, and ways churches can improve the sound their online audience experiences.
This is the next chapter.
Jenesis Designs became the foundation. CHG Audio is the focus.
And we are excited about what comes next.
Welcome to CHG Audio.
Clarity. Harmony. Gain.
