in the windows only world, there's a software niche called worship software. the requirements are similar to vjing. while i use a dual moniter set up split to multiple projecters and a separate multi-camera station feeding me a single input. the top programs ( about $400) support multiple video sources and three virtual moniters. you still have to pick one feed at a time although you can switch on the fly. if you choose to use a single monitor you'll need a cheat sheet or memorize your control screen( for me the added mental load cuts down on creativity).
