Now that you have an idea of equipment that you will likely need, let’s take a look at some alternatives. This will prevent it from overheating and crashing mid-performance. *Note: When performing live with MainStage or one of these alternatives, always be sure to point a fan at your pc or laptop.
With this being said, here’s a quick list of things I would recommend for your devices. The system requirements will change depending on which alternative you choose. This is why we recommend just going with an alternative to MainStage, rather than going through a hassle and potentially damaging your PC. The downside to this is that you can download bad programs that are malicious and can damage your PC. The only way to actually do this would be to use an emulator or simulator that tricks your PC into thinking you’re using an Apple product. With this being said, there are people who go to some extreme lengths to download Mainstage for Windows. MainStage is built for Apple only and is not compatible with Windows.
#APPLE MAINSTAGE PRO#
There is a free iPad companion app available designed for use with Logic Pro X, MainStage 3 and GarageBand, which can act as a hardware controller for various parameters.
#APPLE MAINSTAGE UPDATE#
MainStage 3 was released alongside Logic Pro X on Jas a paid update and available only as a download from the Mac App Store. Since version 2.2, updates are available only from the Mac App Store.
Version 2.1 released in January 2010, introduced a 64-bit mode. The second version, MainStage 2, was released on July 23, 2009, along with updated releases of many of the other applications in the Logic Studio package. The first version of MainStage was introduced on September 12, 2007, alongside Logic Studio.
Playback of pre-recorded backing tracks.Multi-effects processing for external inputs (e.g.Recording of any audio signal passing through.
#APPLE MAINSTAGE PATCH#
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. Virtual instruments that can be used with MainStage can also be used with Logic Pro.Ī MainStage concert can display a patch list which displays all the patches created by a user for that concert. It can also act as a "host" and centralize any third-party virtual instruments or audio units that users might have installed on their computers.
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.
#APPLE MAINSTAGE SOFTWARE#
MainStage comes bundled with a number of sampled software instruments (such as pianos, guitars, drum kits and pads) as well as effects. 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. Instead of a timeline for instance, there is an editable "Workspace". The focus however, is on live use rather than features like recording and editing that are available in a DAW such as Logic. It works in much the same way and bears a similar user interface. MainStage might be thought of as a companion app to Logic Pro.
