Good answer!

One modification. It won't "cause problems", it will reduce your flexibility as the show Host. When you have two displays, while the singer is performing, you can be adding new songs to the Playlist.

Then, when they stop performing, you can work your audience between songs instead of having to find the next disc, load it in your CDG Player, etc. It's one of the most powerful features of Hoster... multi-threaded so you can do two things at once.
