Creating Guitar Rigs

Jan 6, 2010

A pretty good tutorial. I had been messing with Mainstage, and this helped me to learn a few features that I'd missed during my tinkering.

A solid basic overview of what you can do with Main Stage using your Guitar, and Rigs. I enjoyed the down to earth approaches that will help any one who is not familiar with this over looked powerhouse, to help you prepare for those: gigs, home recordings, experimentation and lets not forget those special Live Shows, or maybe even a rehearsal hall with a new group band members.
