Fly Worship Offers Unlimited Songs and Their Player Through Subscription Service

Fly Worship is designed to help facilitate worship in small churches or other settings where there is a shortage of musicians and/or audio/video technical people. Technically, it is a customizable software application that uses audio tracks and can be controlled by a foot pedal, iPad or keyboard.  

With Fly Worship, it’s possible to create and run a worship set, display congregational lyrics on a screen, and optionally add other audio & visual elements (called flyers) such as prelude/postlude music, announcements, and song copyright information.  The “on the fly” features are what makes Fly so incredible for worship:

Special Features

Looping. When you lead worship, often you want to flow where you feel led. With a normal band, you can repeat sections easily. Fly gives you that same ability. If you want to do another chorus, bridge or intro just hit the pedal and around you go seamlessly. So natural and so simple.

Jump to Another Section. In addition to the ability to loop sections, you can also jump to user-defined sections, such as the chorus, verse, bridge, or ending, seamlessly as you desire.

Fading. Another dynamic effect we use naturally in the context of a normal band is volume changes or dynamics. Fly allows you to program exactly which instruments will fade out (and to what degree) and how fast the fade will occur. During worship, you can tap the appropriate pedal, and the instruments will fade as previously determined. When you tap the pedal again, the levels resume.

Custom Mixes. Depending on the situation and perhaps your own musical taste, you can apply different audio mixes within Fly. There are three “global” pre-defined presets:  Full band, Mellow, and Acoustic. The levels have been set to suit those situations, although they can be changed easily. There is even a custom mix you can use to create your own sound.  In addition, you can define a specific mix for each song in the set.

Link Tracks. To provide seamless worship, Fly allows you to select a keyboard pad in any key (or your own custom digital audio) to join your songs together during playback.

AVAILABLE SONGS

Over 850 tracks are currently available. In addition, you can import any other digital audio songs you may already have.  The Fly Worship songs come in three keys, and the software allows you to alter +/- five half steps above or below the key, giving you many key options. Be sure to choose keys that are congregationally friendly.

Additional Considerations 

Fly utilizes stem mixes with this instrumentation:

1. Acoustic guitar
2. Bass
3. Drums
4. Electric Guitar
5. Keyboard
6. Percussion
7. Piano
8. xTrack (a user definable stem that can be used for vocals, click, etc.)

There are no vocal parts in the mix (unless you specifically add them using the xTrack feature or with a track you already own).

Audio Enhancements

• Custom arrangements, Make your own versions of songs!
• Import your own recordings or audio from other providers and use them with all of Fly’s features.
• Key Change: Change the key to lift songs at just the right moment (on the fly or during the entire song).
• Tap Tempo: Too fast or slow? Tap in a new tempo on demand. This allows you to speed up or slow down a song live.  You may also predefine the tempo to be faster or slower.
• Navigation keys to jump to: “V” (verse), “C” (chorus), “B” (bridge), “E” (end).
• Link tracks for seamless track to track navigation.
• Superb audio repositioning accuracy
• Start song on Fade (As if the Dynamics pedal has been pressed).
• Quick Map builder for imported tracks.
• Optimized playback engine for seamless looping.

 Projection Enhancements  

• Video background playing on the external lyric projection.
• Visual plugins for backgrounds (Audio sensitive animations)
• Easy external display detection.
• Separately maintained lyrics. The text shown on the projector can be different than in main window. This allows the use of chord symbols, tablature, or other notations on the laptop screen.
• Customizable logo shown on the bottom right corner of the external display (which can also be turned off).

New Fly Companion Apps
