Some world renowned artists that use our telemonitor products
Before - After
Changing from a music stand or iPad to a covert wedge Stageprompter, makes a huge leap forward in the confidence of the performance. No longer is there a barier between the audience and the artist. These pictures were kindly sent by Tracy Cowdell in the USA to show us how his performance has changed for the better.
Mike Peters from "The Alarm" has been a Stageprompter customer and user since 2011. Mikes feedback as a world renowned artist has helped shape the Stageprompter range over the years, to be the world leading brand for covert, on stage teleprompters.

What is a Stageprompter and how does it work?
Covert confidence - Hidden in a wedge style audio floor monitor case, the Stageprompter is virtually undetectable by the audience. It gives the user and fellow performers a massive confidence boost by displaying what they need to see such as chords, lyrics, presentation notes, music scores, tabs, structure or whatever is required. Great for any on stage artists wanting a computerless wedge teleprompter monitor that is invisible to the audience.
Used by - The Stageprompter is typically used by musicians, singers, presenters, ministers, performers, speakers and choirs. You will find our teleprompter products on the worlds biggest and smallest stages, places of worship, conference centres, stadiums, churches, universitys, schools, theatres and many more venues.
Computerless - We boast that our products are "computerless". When you are performing up on stage you want your equipment to be ultra reliable, simple to set up, easy to operate and zero maintenance. Our Stageprompters have an internal "controller board" that has been designed and manufactured specifically for our products and to operate exactly as we want it to. When you turn it on, it is fully functional within a few seconds, displaying your lyrics, guitar chords etc. There is no software to configure, no keyboard or mouse needed, no wireless or bluetooth to worry about, no fans needed, no battery backup needed, no updates to worry about, It just works ! In fact we believe it is the best lyrics prompter for singers available today.
How they operate? – All Stageprompters display PDF and JPG files of your songs, lyrics, guitar chords etc that are saved onto a standard USB Memory Stick. The USB memory stick is inserted into the connector panel and a menu of your files (songs etc) is displayed. Using the foot switch you can then move through the files in forward or reverse order or select a specific file you require from the menu. There is no on or off stage set up, the Stageprompter is fully operational from the moment it is turned on.
HDMI input - Some models, as well as our internal PDF / JPG controller, have a HDMI input to allow the display from a laptop, tablet PC or iPad etc to be sent to the Stageprompter screen. This allows you to use any software you may choose to display your prompts and also enables remote operation.
How to get your lyrics, chords, presentation notes etc onto the Stageprompter - Because the Stageprompters read PDF files you can create these in any existing software on your PC or Mac computer / tablet etc. We have also produced a purpose made lyrics application that allows you to cut and paste from your existing text, information, song sheets etc. You can format your work, group and order your files into sets and can back up or restore your work. When you are ready to perform, just copy your PDF or JPG files to a USB memory stick and insert it into the Stageprompters control panel and you are good to go. You are free to work on your songs, prompts etc off stage, walk on stage, plug in and perform.
I gigged the Stagepropmpter for the first time last Saturday and all I can say is it’s absolutely brilliant. I actually found it very easy to create the images and load it up (even with my technophobia!) and of course using it live is a breeze. I hadn’t appreciated what a boost it would give me on stage, it really is a stroke of genius. Everybody was impressed with it. The vocalist in the support band hasn’t stopped talking about it yet!
A Stageprompter will boost your confidence
No more music stands or iPads - Have you been using scraps of paper on a music stand, or maybe peering at a complicated iPad lyric software app' on a tiny screen? Our Stageprompters have been designed especially for artists performing up on stage, that want a larger screen, covert, floor wedge lyric prompter in front of them. Unlike any other prompting device on the market, our Stageprompters are computerless, therefore they are reliable, easy to operate and require no maintenance. From the moment you switch them on you are accessing all your prompts. You can view anything you wish to see, including images as well as text. They are operated by a simple foot switch and because they look like a standard fold back audio wedge monitor, the audience is unaware you have an autocue device up on stage. The Stageprompter is the musicians teleprompter for singers.
Big, clear, covert telemonitor screens
Unlike small screen alternatives such as iPad lyric apps, our Stageprompters have either a sizeable 22" or massive 32" screen. This means that for most of your songs, you can fit all your information on one screen with no scrolling needed. This gives you the advantage of being able to look ahead and see prompts that are coming up and not just a line or two at a time. It has been noted that performers reading or singing from a scrolling autocue, are prone to staring at the screen, not performing to the audience. The Stageprompter gives you the most natural prompting experience so the audience will never know. We hope you agree that we have the best stage teleprompter for singers on the market in 2020.
