Power on
Follow Power on and off or the printed checklist. When ProPresenter shows the camera feed, the system is up.
Before rehearsal
- Line check every input, even though the mixer starts from a good baseline. Adjust gain, EQ and monitor sends as people need. See Line check.
- If there’s a video today, play it through once. Check that the picture looks right and the audio comes through the speakers.
Pastor check (9:30–9:45)
- The pastor reviews his slides in ProPresenter. Make any edits together with the slide operator.
- He checks his own mic. It stays at the same setting every week, so this is just “does it work”.
During service
- First worship slide: click it to start. It changes the lights, looks and camera all at once. The slide operator should be ready for it.
- Everything in between runs from the slides as built.
- Last slide: ends the livestream. Click it only when the service is actually over.
After service
Follow the power-off section of Power on and off.
