MAINSTAGE 3 TEMPLATE SETUP FOR BEGINNERS: GET STARTED FAST

Designing a MainStage 3 template for Beginner’s.
In this video I explain what I wish I’d known when I first opened MainStage 4-5 years ago.
This video assumes no prior knowledge but follow along to the end and in 10 - 20 minutes you should have the makings of a very useable MainStage template.

And the controller keyboard is the MAudio Hammer 88:
But of course this will work for almost any controller keyboard + midi controller combination

God Bless! :)


MAINSTAGE 3 OVERVIEW:
MainStage might be thought of as a companion app to Logic Pro. It works in much the same way and bears a similar user interface. The focus however, is on live use rather than features like recording and editing that are available in a DAW such as Logic. Instead of a timeline for instance, there is an editable "Workspace". This allows a user to drag out an object that acts as a software representation of a hardware controller like a button, knob or fader and assign that to a parameter such as volume, pan or even more complex things. MainStage comes bundled with a number of sampled software instruments (such as pianos, guitars, drum kits and pads) as well as effects. These instruments can be played using a pre-recorded MIDI file or via a controller device that uses the MIDI protocol, such as a keyboard or drum pad. It can also act as a "host" and centralise any third-party virtual instruments or audio units that users might have installed on their computers. Virtual instruments that can be used with MainStage can also be used with Logic Pro.
A MainStage concert can display a patch list which displays all the patches created by a user for that concert. Each patch might have a different instrument or effect assigned to it and various parameters can be changed during a performance by cycling through the list.
