Your first service
Rehearse Scripture, lyrics and slides before presenting to an audience.

Prepare the PC and screens
Install the Windows x64 app, sign in during account setup and connect the audience monitor. Keep the operator screen separate. Begin in Settings → Display Mode → Manual so you can review presentation choices.
Manual Scripture presentation, lyrics and slides do not need a cloud API key. Local transcription uses the installed Moonshine model. Deepgram and Gladia are optional cloud alternatives; Gemini is needed only for Studio's AI generation.
Present a passage
- Open Scripture and choose an installed translation.
- Use Book search to find John chapter 3, verse 16.
- Check the reference, wording, translation and theme.
- Select the verse to present it. Selection in Scripture can trigger presentation; it is not merely highlighting text.
- Check Live and the physical audience screen before continuing.
- Blank the output, then restore it.
Expected result: the chosen passage appears in the intended theme on the audience screen. If only the laptop preview changes, follow display setup.
Try speech recognition
Select the input in Settings → Audio, run its test, then choose Start transcribing in Scripture. Say “John chapter three verse sixteen.” Confirm that the transcript contains the reference and that the correct detection appears.
Review the candidate before presenting. A high confidence score does not guarantee that the speaker intended that passage. Use manual search if recognition misses it.
Try lyrics and slides
Open Worship, create a song with your own test lyrics, save it and choose Send live. Practise next, previous and blank. Open Slides, create a show, import a test image or PDF and present it. Check the audience screen after switching workspaces.
Finish the rehearsal
Stop transcription. In Studio, use Save live service if you want to retain the session. Export a library backup and keep linked media separately. Rehearse the service plan and run the before-service checklist.
