Title: Getting Started with Song Overlays Pro in 5 Minutes

We don't need to translate title? The article content starts with

Introduction

Introduction

Let's translate each section.

Introduction

Welcome to Song Overlays Pro! This quick start guide gets you from download to displaying what's playing in just a few minutes. No technical expertise required.

Translate: "¡Bienvenido a Song Overlays Pro! Esta guía rápida te lleva desde la descarga hasta la visualización de lo que está reproduciéndose en solo unos minutos. No se requiere experiencia técnica."

But keep the product name unchanged. So "Song Overlays Pro" unchanged.

Also keep the apostrophe "what's playing" - we can keep as "what's playing" or translate to "lo que está reproduciéndose". We'll translate.

Direct Link: Song Overlays Pro on Mac App Store

Step 2: Grant Audio Permissions

3. Haz clic en Abrir Configuración del Sistema cuando se solicite
4. Busca Song Overlays Pro en la lista
5. Activa el interruptor a encendido
6. Es posible que necesites reiniciar la aplicación para que los cambios surtan efecto
