Midi Control
MIDI Input
MIDI, or Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a protocol developed in the 1980's which allows electronic instruments and other digital musical tools to communicate with each other. MIDI is a series of messages that can be sent to EasyWorship and are interpreted into specific commands like "Go Live," "Next Slide," "Logo on," "Black on," and many more. A MIDI instrument that can be used to send these messages can be a piece of hardware (c or part of a software environment like Ableton Live. These devices and software have to be on the same WiFi or local area network as the computer running EasyWorship.
MIDI Sync
Connect and control schedules on multiple computers on your network using MIDI Sync. Set up a MIDI out control on your main computer where you will control from and set up a MIDI in control on the computers you will be controlling. When this is done, you can use one computer (MIDI out control) to control all other connected computers (MIDI in).
rtpMIDI
If you're using a hardware device or computer that uses the Wi-Fi or local area network and is not plugged directly into the computer, you will need a program called rtpMIDI installed on your computer to be able to send the MIDI commands from the device to EasyWorship.
