And seamless Patch switching lets you hold a chord in one sound while moving to a new Patch. With Multimapping, you can map multiple parameters to a single control, so you can smoothly manipulate your sound without trying to turn several knobs at once. Start walking a bass line up the keyboard, and the split point moves up so the bass doesn’t suddenly become some other sound when you get into the higher notes. It intelligently moves the split point on a split keyboard Patch to respond to what you’re playing.
For starters, there’s the Floating Split Point. MainStage is not only an amazing host for software instruments and effects, it’s also packed with innovations that let you shine on stage. Or bring the authentic sounds of a Hammond B3 organ, Hohner Clavinet D6, or Fender Rhodes or Wurlitzer electric pianos on stage. Use Retro Synth to re-create your favourite electronic sounds from the ’70s and ’80s with an intuitive set of controls. I haven't seen much lag at all on either, even though Mainstage can get a little buggy sometimes and eat up the CPU on our quad i7 Mac Mini that is located on stage where I work. And Chord Trigger allows you to press a single note and have it trigger an entire complex chord. I do have a 2015 MacBook Air 13' 1.6 GHz i5, 8GB RAM/256GB SSD and it's a lot more responsive running Mainstage and Logic Pro X, as expected. The Arpeggiator features note-based remote controls and flexible latch modes. Take your performance beyond what you can actually perform.
