Hey Jake, one quick question. Should I use a MIDI interface with ethernet capability on it to send the MIDI note from Ableton computer to Pro presenter computer? Or can i just use the regular ethernet port between those computers in the network? Thanks before!

Hey Jake and Brian, love your work as always. With regard to Jake's comment at the end of the video I just thought that I'd let you know that for the 30+ years that I've been involved with my church as a worship musician (in multiple locations), our culture has always been to ask the congregation to pick songs on-the-fly. Most days are good, some days are completely off the rails awesome, and some days have songs that not every one knows. And with a shout-out to Fuller, there 'aint no way I'm doing this without a music stand !!

Also to add I do know that Elevation actually has a person who runs their whole Abelton rig so they can be spontaneous if the pastor wants to call up a song on the fly. It is crazy and cool at the same time. Though to do that you have to have someone that only runs that.

Do you pre mix your multitracks or can your sound engineer mix and equ etc during a service if need be? Maybe a sound is louder on the Sunday than it was on a practive, can your sound engineer mix the multitracks? Thank you

You show how it can work, but you don't show how to do it like a walk through with a song. Do you have a video like that?

So in our instance we have a volunteer set up lights, someone make slides, and our md makes our tracks.... how does this work in this manner? does our team send everything to our md?

Hey guys! Do you guys feel that you lose anything by having your sessions so heavily structured? We will often just flow organically in worship and it doesn't seem that it's that easy to do with a system like this.

@Churchfront 4 жыл бұрын

Not really. I've always been the type of worship leader who makes a plan and sticks with it but still having the flexibility between or after songs to flow. Ableton allows us to easily do it. If you don't know what songs you are gonna sing going into a worship service, then it probably isn't a good fit.

@actionarnie78 4 жыл бұрын

@@Churchfront Ye I guess if you're still able to flow naturally between songs it's not actually that rigid. Thinking about it again most of the more organic stuff in our sessions comes after the planned arrangement for a song is complete.

You're definitely losing the organic feel. I would never want to perform with a robot telling me exactly what to do in my ear. Takes all the fun out of it.

Does all of this automation get in the way of letting someone serve by running slides or running lights? I love this stuff and think it is so cool but I also don't want to just kick out the person who is currently running slides for us.

Hey Jake would having multiple midi control networks only going to one computer cause some weird issues. I know you said in another video you had some issues with the midi network. Or are you doing this because you have enough overlap of command notes?

@Churchfront 4 жыл бұрын

No issues. We are now using iConnectivity devices for a more reliable setup. You can check that video out on my channel.

Business idea...a small team of session designers. A worship pastor can submit their PCO plans to your team...your session designers build the session. Charge per session design :-)

@Churchfront 4 жыл бұрын

Already thought of this one! The problem comes with the legality of sharing audio stems of master tracks. It would violate the terms of agreement with a lot of the big distributors (loop community, multitracks, etc.).
