New MainStage Sampler - Answering Your Frequently Asked Questions
You know what, Sunday Sounds' Sunday Keys App already done it. And there's no issue at all. It also support 3rd party plugin. Also new ipad doesn't heat much at all (when I'm using sunday keys app along with 3rd party plugin). IT'S A POWERFUL APP! I mean, all your concerns have been addressed with these guys in sunday sounds and they've been successful since day 1. Do some research. I don't think apple can't do it. They even implement ipad version for Final Cut. So why?
I have a problem I can't figure out. I'm trying to make the sampler use only ONE of the zones from the different zones assigned to the same key on a Latin Percussion kit. I've tried everything I could to make it play only one of the zones but it keeps cycling through the different zones automatically and I can't figure out how to stop/modify this. It's the Stomps in the kit and I only like Stomp Copy 7 but every time I hit the key, it cycles to the different zones of the audio file. How can I modify this to only play Stomp Copy 7 zone? EDIT: Knowing this information will also help me know how to setup up the automatic cycling in case I also want to create a sampler instrument where one key triggers several different zones of an audio file.
they changed the number, but in reality, there is nothing really new, apart from a distorter and other useless plugins, it's been years, that we hope for a search for plugins, a decent browser manager, more responsive audio editing, it seems that Apple is only investing in iPad devices and not in your computers.
I have an Akai MPK88 midi controller running into my Mac mini and GarageBand. Is this a good buy for sound packs?
How can I make a mapping for Start/Stop from a specific marker?
I can't believe Apple has all of that
Proper
This is SO COOL!! 😎🙌🏻
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I am an audio tech for a growing HS marching band in KS. SO helpful to hear these pros!!!!
Thanks Matt. Short and sweet.
Is there a way to have the keyboard play the same notes played by the drum pads but play just the instrument sound and bypass the sample? Because if not, why not just use the keyboard to trigger samples exclusively, since key inputs are needed regardless of it being routed to a drum pad or not?
How do you determine if the balance issues are an audio fix (mixer edits) or a performance issue ("marimbas: play softer")?
That’s a great question and is very dependent on the situation. There are scenarios where we as a staff discuss whether we want to change the mixer volume, the performer volume, or the mallet choice. A lot of it is dependent on the tone and color of the instrument. If we change the performer volume it can have an affect on the color and timbre that we’re hearing. So if we like the timbre but want it to be softer that usually happens at the mixer level.
What wireless access point are you using? The school I am the audio engineer for is using a tp-link wireless access point, but it seems like in larger stadiums with a larger audience, the wireless is far less reliable. Using the Ethernet output from our Behringer x32 to connect direct to the Access point. Thanks for your help!
We are using the Ubiquiti wireless access point. I believe its the UniFi 6, I'm not entirely sure about the exact model. We mainly connect to the 5ghz band but it also has a 2.4ghz band that we sometimes connect to.
Hi! I have a question regarding mainstage. My band is getting ready to do some shows and plan to use mainstage for the keyboard parts. We are really beginners when it comes to this… So please explain like we’re 3 years old ;) we started today to add patches for each song in the setlist. Now we wonder, for example if one song has organ and strings in the riff and we created layers with both organ and strings to play at the same time, but in the verse it should only be organ. Is it possible to assign let’s say a pad on the keyboard that will ”mute” the strings when pressing it to play the verse with just the organ sounding and then hit the pad again for unmute when the chorus come in? Or must we use 2 keyboards? We only planned on using a 37 keys keyboard so it’s not optimal to split it. if you have any easy and cool ideas please let us know! We’re a duo so the keyboard will be played by a hired musician, But we want to get the setup ready to save him the time… looking forward to hear from you…and remember we’re dummies kind regards jojje/Introspektivet
Hello! You can assign a button in Layout mode and map it to a hardware button on your MIDI controller that mutes a specific channel strip when you press it.
@@CatherallAudio hi! Thank you so much! We’ll try that Kind regards
Maybe I am missing something obvious, but it's just not working. It appears that I am loading wav files successfully into the mapping window, and the yellow column is assigned to a key, but when I try to trigger it, I get no sound. I am using a malletstation, so maybe it doesn't work the same as a keyboard synth. But, if I switch to another patch like glockenspiel or marimba, it works fine. When I go back to this one, no sound. It does keep saying "metronome," at the top instead of "instrument." I keep thinking maybe that's the problem, but I don't know how to change that. Any suggestions?
Its possible that you loaded the sampler on the metronome channel strip? You should also check if you have the samples set as "one-shot" or not. If its not set as a "one-shot" then that could cause the problem you're experiencing.
@@CatherallAudio Thank you! I was adding an untitled patch, which didn’t have an instrument assigned. I had to add new patch with channel strip. I don’t know if that detail was mentioned, but I missed it. Problem solved!
Each time I watch vlogs like this I’m left even more in awe. As if it’s not hard enough putting on a high quality show, I hadn’t even thought of all the audio, mixing, scanning, frequency exclusions, FloMarching feeds and everything else that needs to be organised. Well done. What amazing organisation and passion. It’s always a pleasure to watch people performing at the top level - no matter what they are doing.
DOUG!
The passion shines through in every video. It's truly inspiring.
Luke!!!! you rock!!!🤟🏼🎉🎉🎉🎉❤️💚
you sir just earned yourself a new subscriber! amazing content 😁
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Hello, I would like to know if it is possible to use the modulation lever on the Roland keyboards to activate the organ's rotary. mine works, however, I have to keep the lever pressed for the rotary (fast) to continue working. Grateful
Thank you very useful
This is incredible!!
Absolutely perfect. So many thanks.
I know this is a bit pedantic but it’s a thing for me Not your fault but it is better described as a damper pedal because it enriches the sound as well as sustaining the sound.
Thanks so much. Doing this for the first time. Using an expression pedal as volume for patches that don't use the keys to control volume intensity like other patches. Mainstage is really great. Last show, I did, RENT, I used it to trigger all of the sound cues, even in the middle of playing. Not used to using my feet so much, but I can't wait to get more versed in these concepts.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank You !
Gr8! The best tutorial on MainStage?
Very well explained!!! Thank you 👍
I notice you have removed the prev / next button to move to next song etc - if I need to assign one to a knob, where is the button? Thanks on the awesome vid!
Very clear. You are a talented educator, concise, clear in your speech, thorough in coverage. I got a lot out of this video. Thank you for sharing.

Is there a way to map plugin presets to a midi controller?
Is there a way to map plugin presets to a midi controller?
How do you get your audio out of your USB Audio interface and into the room? Can you plug a ¼ inch instrument patch cable from the audio interface’s output, right into the input of a clean guitar amp? (Or two guitar amps, if you want stereo?) I tried this and it sounded horrible and shrill. It sounds great going into my Presonus studio monitors. Should I just take a pair of powered monitors on the road with me? Or do you go straight from your USB audio interface into the house’s mixing board? How do YOU get your sound out of your computer and into the room? Thanks!
How can I select a song in mainstage using midi?
Using the headphone output is just horrible advice.
Thanks for your video! How can the leakage of other instruments be totally removed in the vocals?
There’s not much to do about it on the user end at the moment, it’s a limitation of the stem splitter algorithm. It’s very dependent on the mix.
Is there any straightforward way to auto advance after playing a passage?
For it to happen automatically, this is the only way that I’ve seen. It’s possible that something newer has been released by someone. If you just need it to happen quickly, you could assign a foot pedal to switch patches.
@@CatherallAudio Thank you! Hesitant to use my Roland keyboard for anything other than sustain after experiencing a few issues, so will continue with assigning the lower two notes for patch changes.
Please do a tutorial on how to copy a song/ set from one concert made by a third party ( with a certain layout) and import all setting including that layout into a brand new concert. Your video is great,and shows how to copy patches and samples, but how do I also copy a particular layout? Thanks!
Mainstage came with Logic 9 so I opened it up and couldn’t figure out how to use it. It is like most Crapple products. You are on your own to figure it out. Never used it.
Awesome comparison video! I really appreciate the work you put into making this video 🙏🏼
Can I still run multiple MIDI keyboards for my 2 synth players? If so how does this set up? We currently use 2 carts with a total of 3 MIDI keyboards (88x2 and a 49)
@Catherall Audio @iConnectivity Support I have just purchased a play audio 1U and the mioXL. Running 2 new Mac mini's (main stage) and a total of 3 keyboards (2 on the main synth cart....1 on the second cart) Are there videos to help configure this set up?
Can i do this on a focusrite scarlett solo?
You could if you split the two outputs which would mean your FoH signal would be mono and your IEM signal would be mono. It’s typically better to keep the FoH signal as stereo.
@@CatherallAudio im running mostly mono on stage since i only have limited channel. Is it all the same procedure on the video?
Yep! You just want to make sure your outputs on MainStage are set as mono and not stereo and you’ll be good to go.
How do the tracks stay aligned when being put from logic to mainstage. Wouldn't they all get out of time on the switch?
As long as they are all the same length audio file they will line up.
You missed Akai Stems.
Do yourself a favor. If you run more than one keyboard, use logic. I know it’s not really intended for live situations but it works better than mainstage for me at least.
Really disappointed with mainstage. Spent 2 days trying to find my midi input tab so I could run 2 midi controllers and never did. Tried everything I could think of to get it to do what I needed it to do and never could. Finally went back to Logic Pro. I know it isn’t really intended for live situations but I can get what I need from it.
Honestly speaking, how does this video not have more views...incredible! Thank you!
