Overhead transparencies run the risk of distracting worshippers with poor presentation quality, or lost or out-of order sheets. Spelling errors are hard-to fix, and many people can be confused when songs are played in a different order than the transparency.
Standard Presentation Software can provide a higher-quality presentation, but can be hard to set up, and run. Accidental keystrokes or mouse-clicks can ruin an item, while jumping from slide to slide can be difficult, at best.
SongLeader from Spearhead Software is the latest in software technology designed specifically in response to the need for a simple, robust and effective tool to manage all the audio-visual aspects you may encounter during a worship service, including : Song Lyrics display, CD Tracks, Digital Media, Scripture Readings, PowerPoint Presentations, and CCLI compliance.
SongLeader is effective : displays are clear and simple, and slide transitions can either "flip" (for ad-lib or spontaeous worship) or "scroll" (for more structured, sequential worship items). Background images can be used to emphasise a specific theme during a worship service, and built-in Scripture texts allow bible readings to be displayed in an instant.
SongLeader is organised : worship services (including songs, bible readings and announcements) can be prepared in advance, and be “ready-to-run” on Sunday morning ! Songs can be prepared the way your church sings, and typing errors can be permanently corrected on the fly - even if the verse is already on the screen !
SongLeader is easy to use : an operator can be trained to use the system effectively with 10 minutes ! No computer knowledge is required, other than the ability to use a mouse. Your library of songs can be categorised according to your requirements, and each type of presentation can be accessed directly from the main screen.
SongLeader is unobtrusive : no more distractions during worship while the correct transparencies are found, no more "back-to-front" or "upside-down" displays, no more small or hard-to-read songs! SongLeader ensures that all of your displays are crisp and clear, with a consistent display
SongLeader is great value! : the software can run on anything from the slowest to the fastest PC. Even if church resources are stretched, SongLeader can help run a professional, effective church service with a minimum of fuss.
Whatever the size or specific needs of your congregation, SongLeader can organise and simplify your administration, and help you focus on worship, not work !
