#PROPRESENTER TRAINING TRIAL#
At you can download a 30-day free trial of the Ableton Live Suite. The exciting part is you do not need to purchase Ableton Live to begin using it. Selecting the right version of Ableton Live If not, a regular external hard drive (at least 500GB) will suffice. Solid state hard drives are becoming more affordable, so buy one of those if you can. I highly recommend buying an external hard drive that has the sole purpose of storing your Ableton Live sessions and multitrack stems. You'll learn quickly that using Ableton Live to run your multitracks requires a fairly large amount of file storage and management. Multitrack and Ableton Project File Storage Make sure it’s not more than a few years old, and it meets the tech specs Ableton has on their website. You do not need the biggest, high-performing, overpriced MacBook Pro. You can run Ableton Live on PC, but I recommend Mac because Ableton runs 10x better on Mac (like every other creative software) and you will be able to maximize my training. Use a fairly new MacBook Air or MacBook Pro.
From the DI box, you’ll run XLR cables to your stage snake or sound console (like you would any other microphone or instrument) 2. The dual ¼ inch end of the cable will plug into a stereo DI box (or two mono DI boxes). The 3.5mm end goes into the headphone jack of your laptop. You’ll need a 3.5 mm TRS to Dual 1/4 inch TS Stereo Breakout Cable.
#PROPRESENTER TRAINING HOW TO#
How to connect your laptop (which runs Ableton) to your sound system. Check out this article on how to get them set up at your church even on a low budget. If your band does not have in-ear monitoring, do not despair.
At the very least, I recommend having in-ear monitoring for the drummer and worship leader. You do not want to send the click track through floor wedges. Your band members need to be able to hear the click track. Have a sound console (digital or analog) with at least two available input channels for your click track and backing tracks. If you are willing to commit the time to learning Ableton for worship and you enroll in my upcoming training, you will learn everything you need to know in only a few hours and you'll become an Ableton ninja! 1.
#PROPRESENTER TRAINING SOFTWARE#
This may seem like a lot! If you are new to leading worship with Ableton, focus on acquiring the gear and software in steps 1-4. Gear and software for lighting automation with myDMX 3.0 Gear and software for lyric automation ProPresenter Which version of Ableton Live you should buy The following is a list of hardware and software you will need. Order of operations for song import: Search SongSelect, select the song, select the template, import, Reflow Editor, add blank slides to beginning and end, create arrangement, check document title.Before using Ableton Live to run a click, tracks, and lighting and lyrics automation in worship, you’re going to need some gear in place to utilize the power of this amazing software. Also the music leaders should supply you what verse, chorus, bridge and tag orders they plan to use. This will aid in finding the right song in SongSelect. When acquiring song information from the music leaders, be sure to get the composer and arranger. Be sure to put them in the master so you can include them in the arrangements. Note the blank slides at the beginning and end of a song. Next copy the text from the textedit applications and use the import process in ProPresenter. Add a carriage return everywhere you want a new slide. In this case simply copy the text from the internet browser and paste it into the textedit application. Sometimes a song is not found in SongSelect and must be searched for on the internet. Because of the large fonts we use you will probably need to use Reflow Editor to manage the text so it fits the slides. A slide template has been created to provide font size that is appropriate for our presentations.
