Which fits your choir?

Choose WorshipTools

You want connected service planning, charts, presentation, and access to Rehearse's worship-song mixes.

Choose VocalCentric

You need to prepare your own choir material and follow individual practice submissions with director feedback.

Already using it?

Keep WorshipTools for services and charts. Trial a custom choir piece in VocalCentric using your own recordings rather than trying to transfer Rehearse's streaming library.

Beyond a feature list

What matters before you decide.

WorshipTools already has dedicated rehearsal tools

Rehearse offers a catalog, practice mixes, key and tempo changes, and looping. The distinction is the material and follow-up your choir needs, not a claim that WorshipTools cannot support practice. Sources: [3]

Custom songs change the decision

Rehearse's library is streamed and does not accept your external audio. For an original arrangement, prepare the resources in VocalCentric and test the singer submission and review process. Sources: [3][6]

A few useful answers

Before you make the move.

Is all of WorshipTools free?

No. There is a free core plan, paid core upgrades, and separate Rehearse subscriptions. Compare the exact products and limits your church needs.

Can I upload our choir's arrangement into Rehearse?

WorshipTools says Rehearse uses its included library and does not accept external audio files. VocalCentric can organize permitted material your team provides.

Can Rehearse tracks be downloaded into VocalCentric?

Rehearse is documented as streaming-only. Do not assume a subscription permits exporting or redistributing the tracks. Use your own authorized material for a VocalCentric trial.
