In October 2025, I drove across the country with my audio recording gear to the 32nd Annual Russian Orthodox Church Music Conference, which was hosted that year in Jackson, NJ.
I set up both an XY and MS mic configuration up in the choir loft (we sang in the nave) and fed them into my multitrack recorder. We also placed an AB mic configuration by the iconostasis and fed it into another recorder. (Note: the YouTube stream did NOT utilize any of my audio equipment.)
After the conference, I put all the audio tracks into my DAW and mixed everything together. Below are all 8 hours of both services divided into MP3 files for each part of the service.
