A small-group Live Cohort of Church Sound Boot Camp — daily emails from Curt Taipale, a weekly Q&A call where Curt personally answers your questions, and a private community of fellow church techs going through it with you. Limited to 50 seats.

"Curt Taipale is the best in the church space for training — people who have had successful careers started from his boot camps." — Steve Wolverton
Maybe the pastor couldn't hear himself in the monitors.
Maybe the vocals weren't as clear as you wanted.
Maybe the livestream sounded different than it did in the room.
Or maybe everything worked reasonably well, but you still found yourself wondering...
"Why does this system behave the way it does?"
"Why does it sound different week to week?"
I'm Curt Taipale, and I want to invite you — and a small group of fellow church techs — to join me for a 6-Week Live Cohort.
The goal is simple:
To finally understand your church's sound system.
I've talked with more than 10,000 church sound techs over 39 years of training, and not a single one suffered from a lack of information.
If anything, the problem is the opposite.
There are thousands of YouTube videos.
Thousands of Facebook posts.
Thousands of opinions.
And yet every Sunday morning, sound volunteers across the country are still asking the same questions.
Why is that microphone feeding back?
Why can't people hear the pastor clearly?
Why does the livestream sound different than the room?
Why do some changes seem to help while others make things worse?
The problem isn't a lack of information.
The problem is that nobody has ever shown them how all the pieces work together.
That's exactly why I created Church Sound Boot Camp.
For 39 years I've been teaching church sound volunteers, worship leaders, pastors, and technical directors the audio fundamentals that actually matter.
Not the myths.
Not the latest Internet fad.
Not whatever someone repeated on social media because it sounded convincing.
The principles that explain why your sound system behaves the way it does.
Because once you understand why something works, you no longer have to guess.
You know.
And that changes everything.
You troubleshoot faster.
You communicate better with musicians and church leadership.
Most importantly, you become more effective in serving your congregation.

The complete Church Sound Boot Camp course
Private cohort community
Certificate of Completion
Beginning July 20th, I'm going to personally guide a new group of students through the Church Sound Boot Camp.
The last live cohort was three years ago. Students kept asking when we'd do it again. Now we are — for the 16th time.
One thing we've learned over the years is that students are significantly more likely to complete the course when they go through it with a cohort than when they try to do it alone.
That's important because the value isn't in buying the course.
The value is in finishing it.
Individual — $397
For the church sound tech, worship leader, or volunteer who's ready to stop guessing.
Tech Teams — $297/person
For worship pastors and tech directors training a volunteer team. Build a shared vocabulary and a common standard across your sound team in six weeks.
First-in-Line Discount Ends June 29th
For context: a single day of in-person church sound training typically runs $1,500–$3,000. The Live Cohort gives you six weeks of daily attention from a 45-year pro audio veteran for a fraction of that cost.
If you complete the cohort and don't feel more confident behind the console, I'll refund every penny. No questions, no hoops. You have 90 days from your start date.
I can offer this because in 15 previous cohorts, the completion rate has been dramatically higher than self-paced. Students who go through it with the cohort finish it. And students who finish it get it.
"This is an amazing class."

"This is an amazing class. I took the six week class and learned a lifetime of sound technology. Sign up. You’ll not be disappointed. "
"As a graduate I can say it is extremely beneficial."
Ron Brown

"I’ve been to more than one including the advanced course. I’ve taken our techs which kicked my budget one year but worth the expense."
"I've learned something every time I've attended."
Joshua Chilton

"I’ve been through several of Curt’s courses. Fantastic material with easy learning and great practical steps to grow in our craft. "
"Switched from playing in the praise band to running sound."
David Penn
CSBC Grad | ILC-4 (2021)
"This course was terrific and very helpful. I have a pretty crazy work schedule. Most weeks I put in 70-80 hours so being able to listen to the lessons at my pace was the best part."
"CSBC should be essential training for anyone wanting to run sound for church. "
Eric Chancey
CSBC Grad
"Curt covers the basics and builds from there in an easily understandable way and gives you a strong foundation of learning to grow from. I’ve hosted several of the Boot Camps live and have sent staff and volunteers through the online course. I highly recommend it, even as a refresher."
"Applies to any genre of music"
Lyle Huffstutler
CSBC Grad | 2017
"It is well worth every penny for anyone, not only for Church Sound but any genre of music, and a great educational experience for the home studio people as well."
