One major goal of any musician is to make sure their live show is engaging, captivating, and a memorable experience for anyone in the audience. There are many tools and tricks that artists use in order to ensure this is achieved. But of those tools out there, is ther one that could be better.

Prompters have been used in the music industry for quite a while now. But most prompters limit what you can use them for. We found someone who tried to better the prompter for live musicians. And we work to see if using a prompter limits what the artist can do on stage. The debate rages on.

Tory Smith of Black Box Prompter comes to the Chord Progression Podcast for a different episode, trying to help out musicians with their live show. On this episode, we dive deep into:

• Why Tory created Black Box Prompter and what it needed to include to stand out from other prompters being used in the music industry.
• The debate on if a prompter will help an artist create a better live show, or if it will become a crutch that young artists rely on to remember lyrics and chords to their music in a live setting.
• What is coming to the prompter in the future, including new ideas on what can be added to really create a better live experience for any artist.

Yes this is a different one for us, but we are always doing what we can to bring you the best bands and artists in rock and metal. Susbcribe to not miss out on another artist again. Just this time, we wanted to do an episode FOR those artists.
