Services

Made to fit your church.

Custom versions of Virtual Church Musician, help with your hymnal metadata, and VCM Servers and VCM MIDI Players built out and configured for you.

Customization

Custom versions of Virtual Church Musician

If Virtual Church Musician almost fits your church but not quite, we can create a custom version for you. Under the license, customers cannot change the software themselves. As the owners, we can.

Consultation

Hymnal metadata definitions

Getting your hymnal into Virtual Church Musician starts with its metadata definitions: the hymnals, seasons, categories, hymns, chants, and service templates the catalog is built from. We help you plan and build those definitions and get them imported.

About the music itself.

You are responsible for having the rights to the music files and other content you load. We do not supply copyrighted music.

Hardware

VCM Servers and VCM MIDI Players, built out for you

We set up the computer that runs your VCM Server and the VCM MIDI Player that sits next to your organ or keyboard, and get them working with your sound system and instrument. There are two ways to do it:

  • A custom build we sell you. We build the system, configure it, and it arrives ready to use.
  • Installed on hardware you supply. You provide the hardware; we install and configure the software.

We recommend the Raspberry Pi 4 or Raspberry Pi 5. The Server can run on a fully air-gapped network.

Request a quote

Prices are by quote.

Tell us about your church and your sound system, and say whether you want a build from us or an installation on your own hardware. We will send a written quote.

For publishers

Branded and tailored editions

Publishing a hymnal or other worship resources? We can customize Virtual Church Musician, brand it, and shape its features to fit a publisher's catalog. The terms are worked out with each publisher.
