We use Easy Worship, and I copied their instructions from their website. This is how we do it.
EasyWorship will play audio files in conjunction with a presentation. While you
display in the live area, EasyWorship will also play an audio file. There is not
a direct interface button called "Audio", however you can play those files by following these steps:
Save your audio file ( mp3, wav, midi ) to the Videos folder in this path
EasyWorship 2006
C:/ Program Files / Softouch / EasyWorship / Videos.
EasyWorship 2007
Win XP - C:/ Documents and Settings / All Users / Shared Documents / Softouch / EasyWorship / Default (or other profile folder) / Resources / Videos
Win Vista - C:/ Users / Public / Public Documents / Softouch /
EasyWorship / Default (or other profile folder) / Resources / Videos
The file will now appear with a black thumbnail in the Video resource area.
- Click on the Media tab, then the Videos tab. Locate your audio file.
- Click on the file once. This places the file in the Preview area.
- Click the Play button above the Preview area and adjust your volume.
Tip: Some techs place the audio file in the schedule just after the song they want to project as Live. When you click Go Live>>> with the song which is just above the audio file, the audio file now appears in the Preview area and you then click play.
Remember that when you move to the next item in the schedule, you will want to click on the new item, then Go Live>>> to avoid sending the previewed audio file to the Live area.
Tip: If you wish to save an audio file to a background you will want to use an editing software such as Adobe Premiere to assign audio files to video and save them as .avi files.
Tip: You can create a folder in the following location c: / program files / softouch / easyworship / resources / video
and call it audio or music. When you click the button with three dots at the top of the videos area, you can select the audio folder. If you have this folder selected when you add audio files, EasyWorship will put them in that folder. You will only see your audio files when you click on that folder.
