I'm a worship leader (from time to time) and was wondering if anyone plays live while projecting lyrics on a screen via a PC? I've been using MS Powerpoint slide shows up till now and it works good bu I have to have someone control the slide show (hitting enter at the right moment).
I want to automate this so I can handle this changing of lryics without having to rely (recruit) someone.

Has anyone done this? I'm sorry if I'm on the wrong forum for this also.

I have thought about using a karaoke player program, such as Gasman Multimedie Karaoke Editor.

What I would do is set up the karaoke file then play it on the PC, basically these MIDI karaoke files are lryics (text) blended with Midi data. The player send the midi data to a midi output device or midi mapper, while the lryics are sent to eh screen.

So I thought for a live gig, I could start create a karaoke file that has a click track only. This would keep my live tempo in sync with the karaoke file so I could control when I want lyrics to appear.

Has anyone else delved into this areana. Anyone with experience here? Is there a "best" program for this?

Any help from someone whose trod this path would be most welcomed. Thanx

Peace
Bob
