Keyboard setup: Mainstage, keyboard, and nanokontrol

This is a basic overview of how we set up our keys for the praise team.

[@nvtebryant]

Dude! Im learning my way around MainStage and stumbled across your video haha. Good stuff!

[@kentaccordionist]

Wish I had a nano control instead of nano control 2. The original had 9 faders and version 2 only 8, which makes it less useful for controlling draw bars.

[@rafaelcutz5736]

Gracias ermano

[@CianaCaruso]

Hi, Thanks so much! This helps a lot

[@djorlando57]

Thanks for this video, great ideas, I've been doing all this without the Nano, tough to do on stage with the mouse, but making it, the Vortex Wireless Keytar is also an awesome addition, if you want to check it out. I love mine. God bless, Ps. 33:3

[@jesuscorderomusic]

Hi Billy, is pleasure to meet you, Billy i have a question, i have a nanokontrol 2 but when i move any fader from the nano there comes out a piano sound prom the mainstage, how can get rid off this sound

[@inspiredkeyboardist]

Probably the clearest video I've seen so far about setting up mainstage and keyboard for church music. THANK YOU for this video! Do we absolutely need every single kind of cable mentioned in this video?

[@sengmitjrangmgarey7667]

What if we give the out put sound to other speaker not in keyboard?

[@nettothepianoguy1125]

Blessings, thanks for the video, will this work with a Korg Krome workstation to use it as a midi controller and mainstage? Instead of the Korg sounds. Your help is much appreciated thank you !

[@RLM.RivardMusic]

Can you assign the knobs on the nano kontrol to control the layers like the faders do and make the faders organ drawbars

[@tabuadevz4449]

Hi i setup my system keyboard mox 6 ,nano kontrol2 all connect to the laptop and 1 stereo cable goes to the mixer but still no sound please advise to do. Thanks

[@AndrewColyerMusic]

Hey man, thank you so much for this video. Great demonstration of your setup and how to use the Korg NanoControl. I especially love the "tap tempo" function! Awesome. Question: could you please do a video showing the "Layout" window, and how you setup the Nanocontrol? Or does it come with a template once you plug it in to the USB port? Thanks

[@MrAdamSears]

Fancy meeting you here, Andrew! ;) I just got a new MacBook and Mainstage/ Logic. Trying to figure it all out! :) Congrats on the Circuline album. It's really good!

[@sly2945]

I have yamaha PSR 770 AND Casio I want to know if the main stage will work with my piano

[@alcozer12]

Can I use my logic sound and my paino sounds on my keyboard all at once.

[@richardaguilar1961]

Can I use a HP laptop for maintage 3 , the requirements on the hp laptop are the same to run maintage?? Thanks gbu

[@stella511]

No. Main stage is for Mac OS only

[@jesdia5935]

Hi? Just wanna know if the performance and speed of m audio onu and the m audio m track is same? And one last thing can i use this set up in a yamaha moxf6? Thank you God bless :)

[@rmanpojo8485]

NanoKontrols works... but the win10 software dont see the midi... :-((

[@Danboarding]

Thanks for this, but I can't figure out how to make it work on my end. I have a Yamaha PSR-E453 hooked up to a Macbook Air running Mainstage 3 along with the Korg NanoKontrol 2. When I plug it in, I can still hear all the sounds of the keyboard (voices, rhythms, etc), even if I turn everything down using the NanoKontrol. May I ask if anyone has a suggestion?

[@rohitmore1039]

Go in to the settings on your keyboard and turn "Local" to off

[@ricovaldez3048]

Finally! Thank you for this!! Do you need Logic to run MainStage?

[@duckster004]

You don't - I bought it as a standalone from the App Store.

[@alabainspiracion4113]

Thanks bro- God Bless you Where do you have mounted your computer? In the piano? there will be a problem if heated?

[@duckster004]

I just set the computer on a stand next to the keyboard when used live. I would imagine heat isn't a good thing for it.

[@alabainspiracion4113]

GBY ;)

[@d.i.mediagroup7249]

I just bought the Korg Nano and Mainstage. I'm having trouble setting up the USB so Nano controls Mainstage then to the keyboard. Anyone have any advise?

[@willsberg]

Good to find a Christian guy doing this for the right purpose. Can I contact you someway?

[@rmcbeats2]

Hello when u connect ur mac live do you connected the same way from the headphone jack?

[@JordonFryeMusic]

How do you map the mute and solo buttons to your controller? I'm using a Korg NanoKontrol 2 and can't figure out how to map the mute and solo buttons for the life of me.

[@joelsajan]

can you please tell me the sounds that you use? or can you please send me the patches if you don't mind. I would like to use this in my church. Thanks and god bless

[@thomasmatthewdexter]

Thanks for posting this. Do you ever get any latency problems with this setup?

[@duckster004]

thomasmatthewdexter yes we have - I quit running all my patches on the same set because of it. Now I use several sets with just 2-4 patches instead of the 7-8 all together like the video shows. I've heard that Mainstage is a CPU hog so I'm not sure how fast of a Macbook you'd need. I think mine is a 2010 MacBook 2.0gHz w/ 8 GB of memory.

[@truche132]

If I have a delay pedal how do I connect it? Do sustain pedal still work?

[@DarnelNeel]

what laptop model u used ? year ?

[@aaronbrown2719]

Is it better to plug into an audio interface instead and run from that into a DI box? I have a scarlett 6i6 and don't know if I should do that instead of using the headphone jack

[@NeilWall]

Yes it is. It'll be better than the standard mac audio out. Use the Scarlett. It's a great interface.

[@JamesStevenson7]

Hey .... I want to buy MacBook air 2017 ...so I can use this stuff....can it run mainstage...and protools etc...??? And how much does mainstage cost?

[@hudsonjephthah]

If you have any macbook with atleast 4 to 8 gb of Ram, I think it should do the Job. Mainstage is $30 on the App Store. Thanks.

[@cbhrcbhr]

Hello Do you know how to set up MS so it transfer the values of the patch to the controller when you change patch Best

[@justination0117]

Is it compatible to yamaha p-35

[@welmergomez3167]

Any suggestions that mac type can use for mainstage?

[@Santiter]

Hi! thanks! A question, do you know if i can use the controller with two different softwares at the same time?? Thanks!!

[@duckster004]

I don't know. Sorry I'm just a newbie!

[@powered_kseries4678]

Hello I was wondering if mainstage 3 sound was coming out of your piano speakers.

[@videosforyoutowatch]

Kaleb Price yes it was. That's my brother in law. He would tell you alot more than me. Lol😍

[@km-yo2om]

cannot get my keyboard to connect.The nanokontrol connected but keyboard is not responding

[@NeilWall]

Did you get it to work?

[@rafaelcutz5736]

Ami megusto enano control
