Make the audience screen yours

The audience screen is the part of your show the room actually looks at, so it should look like your night rather than like our software. Almost everything on it can be changed from the plugin's Audience settings.

One screen, every part of it yours: the logo, the promo image, the title and subtitle, the background, and how much of the rotation the room can see.

Your branding

Put your own logo on the screen and set how large it sits. Add a background image behind everything, or a flat colour if you prefer. Set the accent, text, dim, and bar colours to match your look, and turn the text drop shadow on or off so the words stay readable over a busy background.

Your words

The title, subtitle, and list label are all yours: name the night, credit yourself, and call the list whatever your regulars call it. There is a free-text message line for anything else, and the ticker along the edge can carry your venue name.

What appears at all

Every block can be switched off independently: the title, the subtitle, the message, the upcoming list, the currently playing track, the now-and-next line, and whether songs show next to singer names. Choose how many upcoming performers to list, and whether the bar sits along the top or the bottom.

Showing songs next to names is the setting hosts change most often. It builds anticipation in a friendly room, and it invites heckling in a rough one. Both are one checkbox away.

Venue promos between songs

Add a slideshow of your own images and set how long each one holds. Drink specials, food specials, upcoming events, anything the venue wants seen. They rotate on the idle screen between performances, which is the moment the room is most likely to be looking up.

The request QR code

When a cloud show is running, the screen carries a QR code that takes singers straight to your request page. You control whether it shows, how large it is, which corner it sits in, and what the caption says.

Save a look per venue

Once a screen looks right, save it as a theme. Themes store the settings and the artwork together, so a host working several rooms can keep one look for the sports bar and another for the wine bar and switch between them in a couple of clicks.

Two ways to show it

The screen can render inside VirtualDJ's video output, so it composites over your video and goes out on the same feed as everything else, or as a separate window you drop onto a second display. The first suits a rig already sending video to a TV; the second suits a spare monitor.

Where to find all this

In the plugin, open Settings and look for the Audience section. Changes apply to the screen straight away, so you can leave it open on the second display and tune it while you watch.
