You can also choose Perform in Window to have the workspace fill the MainStage window, while retaining access to the Finder and to other applications. In Perform mode, the workspace fill your entire screen by default, optimizing available screen space for your onscreen layout. You can also adjust concert-wide effects using auxiliary channel strips and control other concert-wide settings. You can view feedback about your patches, including names, parameter values, and audio output levels, in real time.

MainStage switches seamlessly between patches and can sustain notes from the previous patch while you start playing the newly selected one. You can select a patch and start playing it instantly. When you perform live, you can use your computer as the final sound module and effects box in your rig. Many thanks for considering these requests.After you have created a concert with your custom patches following the steps described above, youвЂ™re ready to play.

It will also allow me to migrate to a planned headless setup with a new Mac mini I am about to purchase (the Mac mini can be physically anchored so more secure in a stage environment). In my case I never want to mute the second synthвЂ™s audio as its keyboard should always work I just want to mute/unmute the MIDI In coming from my master keyboard according to the needs of the moment.ДЇixing these issues would enable me to completely avoid using my laptopвЂ™s keyboard/trackpad to control MainStage which is a really bad option in a live situation.

But you donвЂ™t necessarily want to mute the audio of the second synth as it has its own keyboard which can be played independently. This is important for multiple keyboard setups where sometimes you want your master synth to send MIDI to a secondary synth and sometimes not. (2) Please could you add a second mute option for external instrument channel strips to allow muting MIDI In as opposed to Audio Out for an eternal instrument (this would be useful in the MainStage UI as well). Compare this behaviour with clicking mute or solo in MainStage when a group of strips is selected.) NB: small extra point: there is a bug when tapping Solo with multiple strips selected - only a single strip is solo'ed.

(I've edited this point to no longer complain about failing to 'grip' the faders as I've now worked out how to grip a fader by striking my finger anywhere on a horizontal line passing through the fader. The touch areas are are too small for me and also it's strange the buttons are above the faders rather than below (like in MainStage) which would make them closer to the musician I think in most setups and easier to reach.

(1) Please could you consider making the channel strip mute/solo button touch areas larger to stop вЂњfinger missesвЂќ when striking from a distance and needing to change things quickly while playing. I have some feedback on controlling MainStage during live performances via the Mixer page in Logic Remote on an iPad. I thought it might be interesting for the wider community too. Here's some feedback I'm going to give Apple on controlling MainStage with Logic Remote.
