  • I'm planing on buying MainStage 2, I'm a guitar player but the thing is that on every guitar video I watch, everybody uses guitar rig 4 to get the guitar sound as they actually want. My question and reason why I plan to get this program is if I could use the guitar sounds only from MainStage and still get an amazing quality. Without Guitar Rig or any other software.

    Thanks a lot!

  • @megatallicadeth Sure, lately I have been just using the amps available in Mainstage/Logic. They take a little more tweaking sometimes, but you can get great tones from them. I think the only advantage to GuitarRig is the metal type sounds. GR has the SuperSonic or whatever, which sounds great for more heavy stuff. My favorite delay though is the one in Logic.

    I am working on some new MainStage videos that will be using MainStage by itself. Should have the first one up in the next week or so.

  • The latency for me has been a non-issue. Honestly I am not sure if Firewire makes a huge difference, but it could. Currently I am using the Apogee Duet and the latency is still very low just like the 610

  • Can you please show how to create this concert? I don't know how to put the Playback into a concert. Thanks!

  • @fernandoscolletion Sure no problem. I will create another video showing how to setup the playback.

see all

  • great video man. when you said you were going to get a footswitch to control the playback, what type of footswitch do you mean? no one can seem to give me an answer on the brand, type. Thank you!

  • How is the latency live on the macbook pro with the m-audio 610? Would a focusrite saffire pro 24 dsp do the job just as well?

  • nice video

    thank you

  • great video buddy. i was looking around to see how i could integrate GR into mainstage for going live.. this just did it for me..

    thanks.

  • Will your GR Kontrol operate the amps/effects within the Logic/Mainstage presets, or GR amps only? Are you using the ProFire 610 for your keyboard audio interface, or for something else? It would really help if you could explain the schematic of your signal chain if you don't mind? Guitar>GR Kontrol>etc. Thanks!
