David Pfaltzgraff – MainStage Mastery Course

When I was just getting started with MainStage I hit roadblock after roadblock trying to achieve the level of control and quality of sounds that I had been told MainStage was capable of. Because I didn’t understand MainStage’s workflow, how to connect my midi and audio hardware, MainStage’s audio structure, (or even simple things like where to save my files) I ended up frustrated and confused more often than not.
I almost gave up on MainStage back then because there was nowhere I could turn to that would help me build and gain knowledge from the ground up.
Thankfully I was eventually able to push through those struggles (over months and years of trial and error) and when I did I discovered the true powerhouse that MainStage is.
Now I can’t imagine playing live keys without it. I’ve been exclusively using MainStage for live keys sounds for over three years and there’s no looking back for me.
That’s why I designed the MainStage Mastery Course. I want to help you push through the growing pains and jump over many of the common frustrations I ran into, so that you can focus on harnessing the full potential of MainStage to express yourself through music with confidence and consistency.
In MainStage Mastery You’ll Learn:
How to connect and assign your midi and audio hardware
A simple, easy to apply MainStage workflow
How to create a custom layout that’s ideal for your playing situation
The ins and outs of MainStage’s built in sounds and how to easily tweak them
How to map features and FX in MainStage for on-the-fly control and flexibility
How to put together smart and efficient preset lists
and many more advanced features of MainStage like playing backing tracks, MainStage’s midi and layering functions, and an introduction to MainStage’s instrument and FX plugins
MainStage is so versatile there are near limitless ways to approach it so this course lays out what has worked for me, reliably, for over three years. I guarantee it will work for you too.
