probleme avec sierra

Je décide de faire la mise à jour sierra et quand je rallume mainstage, je ne peux plus rajouter de commandes dans la présentation. du coup je ne peux rien confiturer, je suis bien emm***. Merci de faire le nécessaire rapidement car jusque là je m’en servais en concert et j’en étais trés content.

Live oui mais….

Comme ce n‘est pas clairement dit, Mainstage est avant tout un logiciel MIDI, plutôt adapté au clavieriste que pour tout autre musicien. Avoir un mac à côté de soi lorsqu’on joue de la guitare (pour lire les paroles, les accords, enclencher des effets ou choisir un patch dampli par exemple), est une gageure dès que l’on est sur scène. Faudrait avoir une table à côté de soi pour poser son ordi+ écran.. pas tip top question look sur scène, hein ! La solution la plus « viable » pour utiliser Mainstage par un guitariste, est un pilotage à distance via un iPad, (le mac étant en régie)… On pourra alors demander à la régie de lancer certaines options directement sur le mac (normalement commandées par MIDI), le reste pouvant être géré par l’Ipad et Apple Remote (via les Smart Controls). Je trouve que la doc n’est pas assez explicite quant à la configuration scénique dès que l’on sort du couple clavier MIDI- MainStage. La programmation d’un concert ne se fait pas dans le timing, il faut enclencher manuellement les patchs, (aucune automatisation possible sur le déroulé d’un concert, enfin à priori).

lenguage

Please translate for portuguese Brazil ! this incredible program!

Muito bom

É incrível para performance ao vivo. As possibilidades são quase infinitas. Uso com um Yamaha MOXF e a integração é muito boa. Só sindo falta do suporte a VST, até agora só tenho usado AU. Fica a dica para as próximas versões.

Atualizei e não funciona mais!

Não está funcionando, sempre funcionou normalmente e sempre achei que era um ótimo programa para as minhas necessidades, após a última atualização quando vai ligar ele encerra inesperadamente,favor corrigir. obrigado!

Mainstage Fecha inesperadamente

Estou tendo alguns problemas com a versão 3.2.4 do MainStage. Quando estou utilizando, do nada o software fecha inesperadamente e logo em seguida abre uma tela informando para enviar o relatório de erro a Apple. Não sei mais o que fazer para resolver esse problema. Meu Macbook PRO atende os requisitos do software (Meados de 2009 com OS Mavericks 10.9.5, Processador Intel Core 2 Duo 2.26GHz, 8GB de RAM, HD de 750GB. Já formatei e reinstalei o sistema, já fiz o procedimento de reset da NVRAM e nada de solução.

zu instabil für produktiven Einsatz

Für den Proberaum ok, für den Live Einsatz zu instabil. Ich benutzte MainStage als reine Playback Maschine, 10 Spuren auf eine Dante Audiocard direkt in den digital Mixer. Leider bleibt das Playbackplugin von Zeit zu Zeit sporadisch und ohne Ankündigung einfach stehen. Ungeachtet wieviele Spuren oder welche Tracks ausgegeben werden. Es ist bisher 3 mal passiert das währende eines Gigs Mainstage einfach im Song stehen geblieben ist. Ohne Fehlermeldung oder sonst was. So etwas darf einfach nicht passieren. Für Live einsatz unbrauchbar !
