Based on personal experience, Church is not sound-proof and groups of people just talking loudly have been asked to quiet down for events in the main room.<br><br><br>But feel free to conduct further studies.<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

...yeah, but you're a good egg....<br>
Great idea.<br>
What do you think of making the DJ booth the<br>
default loudness spot? Your idea suggests the<br>
need for loudness with respect to a hacking<br>
project of some kind, and mostly it seems such<br>
a project would be a solo endeavor, yes? In the<br>
few cases not, then Church could be the secondary<br>
approved spot.<br>
