This way I can land on the title slide, before hitting play in Ableton.

I have added my song, and configured it to have a title slide. The only thing we will need in Proclaim is our Song service item and ensuring we have a command set up to advance the slides. Finally, running Ableton and Proclaim side-by-side in our service, we’ll go On Air and play our song in Ableton, which will then advance the slides in our presentation. We’ll then move over to Ableton and tell it to fire that signal to Proclaim when we want our slides to change.

To do this, we’ll get our song finalized in Proclaim, then set Proclaim up to receive a particular MIDI signal. We can use Ableton Live to create a MIDI track that will advance our song lyrics right in time with the song. DAWs like Ableton Live can create and play back MIDI tracks. Proclaim can execute a number of actions based on received MIDI signals, including advancing the slides. Automating Song Slides with Ableton live and MIDI Input
