Best tutorial on mainstage, compact and useful God bless

Thank you guys so much. I'm composing and conducting a musical but a majority of the performance is going to be on keyboards playing orchestral sounds. this was a very helpful intro for MainStage and answered my main questions!!! excellent content. I am going to subscribe.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart

Incredible thank you!! really great work on this

Thank you for explaining in full detail. As a beginner I benefited.

Thanks a bunch for that video, it's awesome!

Thanks for the video, I learned a lot from it. Blessings

Found this video, really helpful and eh I was already subscribed, top man! God bless! ;D

This video is great 👌 I'll save it for later

Thanks for mentioning we need a Mac, right off the bat. The other videos that I wasted an hour watching, did not mention that.

If you’re on a tight budget you could pair an M1 Mac Mini with an ASUS Zen Screen and have a great set up. The Mini has way more ports than a MacBook too. I’ve the 16GB model and it handles everything I throw at it.

You don’t need a new Silicon chip Mac to run this. I run a live rig more sophisticated than this with Logic Pro on a 2012 Macbook I5. Works perfect

Please do a video showing how to incorporate external modules into a MainStage concert. Show how program changes and other cc midi commands can be sent to external modules and then blended with internal vst’s and MainStage/logic sounds. Thank you.

Thank you!

Thank you.

Great video David. Glad I bought it Saturday. Thank for help getting it to work with my mid-2012 MacBook Pro 2.3 Quad core intel i7 16gb memory. Glad M1 isn’t required.

Just getting back into playing at church after 8yrs. And my concern would being able to layer say Piano/Pads or Strings, but also being able to adjust bringing in said layers as needed.

David, thank you for such informative content. My children have been our organists at church for 3 years now and I am attempting to build a practice organ for them at home. Can you give me some pointers for Mainstage. I need to connect two midi keyboards and a midi pedalboard to Mainstage and I need to be able to set organ registration individually to the three midi devices. Is that possible?

I am a heathen and this video really helped thanks

Hey guys. I've been running MainStage/Logic on this 2011 17" MacBook Pro for years. I still use the original equip I bought back in 2012. My used Novaton SL61 mk2 I bought from Guitar Center is probably the oldest, yet it's still going strong. This 17", the laptop I am on now, is limited to OS 10.13.6 because of the CPU through. Even my 2013 iPad, used with the Logic remote connected to show more mixer channels, I still use. I guess I'll have to upgrade someday. Yet, so far, so good! Peace...Guy

I’ve encountered a problem which is that I can’t connect the thing using a usb because my Mac does not have a usb

I'm wondering - is there a way where I can use Logic Pro X's live loop, have a dedicated hardware mapped for triggering the loops, but then route (clock sync as well) that into Mainstage and use Mainstage purely for playing my live keys? I would setup all the patches in MainStage. I don't want to use Mainstage's playback as i find it's not very good, also I'm creating like a 25-30min non-stop set where I'm going to be doing mash-ups of different songs and require the flexibility of live loops?

It seems crazy that with all this information about Mainstage, I can't find out if I can run Mainstage on Ipad alone. Anybody know if this is possible?

Hello David can you please make a tutorial like this for Ableton Live also

Hiya David, just a quick one to say hello from North Wales (UK) and thanks a lot for these tutorials mate. I'm not religious but I came across your content after buying a 2020 Macbook Air recently, with the intention of using it - MainStage particularly - for live gigs with my band, etc. I've used Logic for years but MainStage is a very different and confusing ball game, I was surprised by how difficult I found getting my head around even just some of the most basic functions tbh. I don't often comment on YT vids but your stuff has been *massively* helpful to me, so it seemed only right that I should thank you. So err..... thank you :) Kindest regards from sunny (yeah ok) Wrexham, Maff :D

@SundaySounds

Most Yamaha keyboards require a driver to be installed, check your models user manual for midi connections.

What about output? How do you get your sound out of your USB audio interface and into the room? I tried plugging a ¼ inch instrument cable between my UA VOLT 276’s output, and the input jack of my Boss Katana, and it sounded shrill and awful. Obviously, I tried to dial in a clean and uncolored sound on the amp. It sounds great when I connect my UA VOLT to my Presonus powered studio monitors. Do you just take your studio monitors on the road with you, instead of an amp? Or do you plug straight from your USB audio interface into the house’s sound board? If you go this route, how do you get a little stage monitoring of the sounds coming through your computer and USB audio interface? Thanks!

@SundaySounds

Thanks for your comment. The vast majority of folks run their audio interface output to the soundboard directly, either via a cable, into a stage box, or similar. If you need some monitoring on stage most churches rely on either stage wedges or an in-ear monitoring system. Hope that helps!

Correct, MainStage is developed by Apple and only available on Mac.

You showed how to connect the keyboard to the computer but not the Nano controller. Also showing how to assign these 2 peripherals in the settings menu would be helpful.
