FOH Setup Checklist

For more details, see the ProPresenter quick start guide.

Setup

• [x] Turn on the projectors and make sure they're lined up properly.
• [x] Download any new media from Planning Center Online to /Users/visuals/Documents/ProPresenter Assets.
• Set up the standard playlist elements:
  • [x] Walk-in slides and announcements
  • [x] Videos (opener, bumper, announcements)
  • [x] Songs
  • [x] Message
• [x] For each slide, make sure you use the correct look:
  • "Lyrics" for song lyrics
  • "Scripture" for Bible verses
  • "Message" for the sermon notes
  • "No NDI" otherwise, especially for slides like the lyrics backgrounds that are likely to be used immediately after lyrics.
• [x] Look for special events in the plan on Planning Center Online (e.g., baptism, child dedication).
• [x] Look for special requests or notes (e.g., custom lyrics, scripture to be shown before worship):
  • [x] On Planning Center
  • [x] By email (tech@riversedge.life)
• [x] Once the rehearsal is done, play each video to make sure the sound is working.
• [x] Turn off the red light and the stage lights.
• [x] Play some music from Spotify.
• [x] Show the walk-in slides.
• [x] Turn on NDI Video Monitor and select NDI > Desktop-D9Q3BCP > vMix - Output 1.

Checks

If you have time, check these things.

• [ ] Check that all slides look good on the projector and on NDI (e.g., the text isn't too small).
• [ ] Remove walk-in slides and MC announcements that are definitely outdated.

General Reminders

• Control the lights:
  • Lower MASTER LEVEL to 0 when a video is played and raise it back to 10 afterwards.
  • Lower CROSSFADERS Y to about 5 when the speaker reads scripture and raise it back to 10 afterwards.
• If the speaker goes over time, flash the red light a few times and then leave it on.
