Setting Up Stage Display (Confidence Monitor) for Worship Teams

A stage confidence monitor keeps your worship leaders and speaking pastors in sync without distracting the congregation.

1. What is Stage Display?

Stage Display is a specialized high-contrast view (high-visibility white and yellow text on a pure black background) sent to TVs facing the stage.

It displays the current singing slide in large text and includes a "Next Slide" box, allowing vocalists to prepare their next phrase before the slide changes.

2. Configuring the Stage Output

Connect your stage monitor to an additional video output on your PC (e.g. HDMI 3 or video splitter).

Under Hope Control Settings, assign that display as "Stage Display". Hope Control automatically renders the dedicated stage view onto it.
