If you're practicing music, MainStage is your perfect instrument. If you're a pro, MainStage will help you take your concerts to the next level ...

MainStage is Apple's musical performance tool. Under MainStage's purpose-built interface is Logic's audio engine. This means MainStage gives you real-time access to all of the unique instruments and plugins you've come to love in Logic Studio.

In this 4-hour tutorial by Bill Burgess, you'll learn how to set up concerts, assign knobs & faders from your hardware MIDI controllers to MainStage instruments, build custom patches & sets, and add effects to your sound. Bill also shows you how to trouble-shoot common MainStage problems! If you're looking to get the most out of MainStage, these videos will show you the way.
