It’s as simple as searching Loop Community’s database of patches. Want to find that pulsing synth intro on “Strength Will Rise”? With one click, you’ve got it. Loop Community is the best place on the internet to find custom worship presets that you can instantly load into a variety of music software programs, including Mainstage 3. Mainstage 3 is a wonderful tool for live performance, but by itself there’s still the problem of getting the sounds in Mainstage 3 to sound exactly like the original recording. And with Mainstage 3 costing a ridiculously low $29.99, you can afford to buy a copy for every keyboard player on your team, allowing them to practice, tweak, and perform with Mainstage 3 on their own laptop. All you need is a Mac computer and an inexpensive midi controller (you can often use the midi-capable keyboard you already own using a usb to midi interface) and you’re good to go. The sounds are all directly taken from Apple’s DAW Logic Pro X, and they can be designed to sound exactly like any keyboard sound you’ll hear on a praise album. Mainstage is so much more than just a keyboard- it has studio-quality effects and sample libraries that far out-perform any hardware synth on the market today. Mainstage 3 acts as a main keyboard (it generates all of the sounds that a normal keyboard would), but is triggered using a midi controller hooked into the Mac computer running the software. It’s completely re-inventing the way keyboardists play their music live. What’s the solution?įortunately, there’s an incredibly easy, inexpensive way to get around this problem every week.Īpple just released an amazing new version of their popular live performance software, Mainstage 3, just a few months ago. She’s playing the right notes, but she just isn’t able to get the right sounds out of that older keyboard. Even if there was money in the budget to buy a new keyboard, it would take hours of time each week and advanced technical knowledge to get the presets to sound like the original recordings. Everyone’s been practicing hard on the songs all week, but when you get onstage, something just doesn’t sound right. You’re a busy worship leader at a growing church with a bunch of volunteer musicians every weekend. Published by Loop Community on NovemNovember 4, 2013 Patches: Mainstage 3 Preset Worship Bundles
