#APPLE MAINSTAGE BASS NOT WORKING PATCH#
So if you want to change the piano in patch 5 only, you will need to convert the alias back to a normal channel strip by navigating to the gear icon in the channel strips workspace and clicking Convert Alias to Original. In other words, changing the piano alias EQ in patch 5 will also affect the aliases in patch 1-4. Every time you make a change to any instance of an alias, it changes every alias you’ve made in your concert, including the original channel strip. If you’re thinking about using aliases, there are a few limitations you need to be aware of.
This is what an alias is-a copy of a virtual instrument that connects back to its primary source. Essentially, MainStage only has to process 1 piano, applied to all five patches. Instead of creating 5 separate instances of the same piano in each patch, you can create one instance of piano in patch 1 and create aliases (or copies) of that piano in patches 2-5 that link back to-or are sourced from-the original piano you created. Here is how they work: Let’s say you have a set with 5 different song patches, and they all have the same piano in them. So I want to share with you a few tips and tricks I’ve learned over the years to help you avoid suffering from CPU spikes, harsh feedback, audio drop outs, MIDI FX not responding, and other potential issues.Īliases reduce your RAM and CPU load because they reduce your MainStage concert’s resource usage. You may have had a similar experience (or worse), but most MainStage users know that live performances can be disastrous if CPU isn’t properly managed, or you are not set up correctly. With nobody else playing, and a few hundred people staring at me in silence and ready to respond in Worship, I just stopped playing. There was no recovery without stopping, and I began to lose all sense of time.
It sounded like my piano was inside of that slap chop commercial, with that guy chopping out the audio every half of a second. As I started to play, I began to suffer from the most intense audio dropouts I’ve ever experienced. I came up after the sermon with the band and we started playing Bethel’s ‘It Is Well,’ which features a piano intro.

If I had to run it live, though, I'd definitely have a rack-mounted Mac Pro or something along those lines that I could trust in terms of stability, reliability, and the rigours or travel/gigging.My worst performance nightmare happened a few years ago during a set in Toronto.

I think computers are fine, but I guess I'm more trusting of dedicated solutions for a live gig than consumer PC hardware, at least for something that isn't DJ-specific or electronic. I've seen stuff fail in rehearsals and I'd be pissed if something happened in a live situation. I'd also vastly prefer a Mac over a PC in a live situation for various reasons. I think it's okay when there's a dedicated person running that stuff, or if it's automated (like backing tracks in Ableton) and there's someone to watch over it. I'd prefer an MPC Live over a DAW (unless I was a DJ using Ableton or something). I'd prefer to use a dedicated synth than a softsynth. I'd rather rely on my Line 6 Helix than try to use a VST and an audio interface. I would rather have a Roland drum module than run Superior Drummer from my laptop in a live situation.

While I'm not against hardware and software on stage, I personally have to say that I prefer dedicated hardware solutions for live sound.
I personally love mixing from an iPad, but would never, ever use one without the instant backup of the surface itself if the wifi drops out. IME digital desks are much more flexible and only slightly less reliable than analogue for live environments. Some of our keys players like to blend the Nord sounds in with MainStage too. However we always hardwire the Nord in as well, so that if MainStage dies we can just fade up the keyboard itself and carry on, rather than troubleshooting or waiting for a reboot. We primarily use MainStage sounds with the Nord as a glorified MIDI keyboard. Our keys setup is dual: MainStage & a Nord Stage. (although you can't really do pads from a FI!) Now I've got a Future Impact, I don't really need MainStage anymore. Worked pretty well it took some tweaking to get sounds I was happy with but the flexibility was all there. Left my bass hanging around my neck and switched to the keyboard for a couple of tunes for synth bass. I've gigged MainStage from the bass seat once, it went fine.
