tutorials. I've been watching WT for several years and one of the best tips ever was from Brian Wahl about using "RehearsalMix" at multitracks.com to learn individual electric guitar parts. The same can be applied for learning individual keyboard parts. But just as with there being multiple electric guitar tracks/parts, each with different tones/pedal combinations on a song's verses, chorus, or bridge (which are handled as "snap shots" on the Helix), there are different keyboard patches/tones for the multiple tracks/parts - many of which have more than one patch/tone layered per track. Plus most churches only have one keyboard player, as opposed to two electric guitar players, to attempt to cover the parts live, that is if you're not running stems/tracks, which can suffer from audio deterioration when transposed more than a 1/2 step or two from their original key. Just listen to how the vocal timbre changes; the same happens for keyboard wav/mp3 files. If one "layers" the patches and plays chords in parallel beneath a lead/riff, for example a piano, a warm pad, and strings, you can end up with something similar to the joke from the movie Amadeus where the Emperor tells Mozart "there's just too many notes"; that is - your playing can end up quite different from the original mix/sound of the song. Here are some suggested topics that you might consider covering in future tutorials. Each of them are practical issues I've had to face when trying to prepare keyboard parts. 1. Matching/approximating the original patches/tones - Not all animals (pianos/synths) are equal; some are more equal than others. 2. Create non-parallel chords that can be played with one or two fingers, thereby freeing other fingers to play leads/riffs, which often have a completely different rhythm pattern. "Chord Trigger" in MainStage works here, but I use Ableton's MIDI Fx/Chords and Instrument Racks. 3. How to switch patches/tones for the different sections of a song, because in songs with several multiple tones the computer's CPU can become overloaded, and just lowering the volume slider isn't a fix. MainStage or Ableton most likely handles this issue differently. 3. How to use a an arpeggiator, including how to play independent riffs/leads with just one finger using the arpeggiator. "SundayKeys" had a MainStage tutorial on this. I use Omnisphere's arpeggiator, which can be applied differently to mutliple patches. 4. How to use "filters" and "envelopes" for patches/tones . 5. How to switch songs without having the patches/tones "drop out" or "hang up". I eagerly look forward to your future WT videos.

@@allendunning272 Great stuff Allen! Yes, I have also dealt with all of these obstacle as well. I will definitely be addressing some of these things!!! Specifically, how to learn songs and "reduce" parts to make the song work and feel right!

Just for fun I made a spread sheet matrix of the different patches/tones for the song sections of Elevation Worship's "Gone", which I'm currently preparing. On the "original recording" MultiTracks there are 4 keyboard tracks (really stems) plus a Synth Bass track. Assuming that the electric bass player is not going to be simultaneously playing the Moog Bass with a MIDI foot controller, this makes for a total of 5 tracks for the keyboard player to consider. But, there are actually 12 different patches/tones (at least that I can identify), which range from a minimum of 2 on Verse 1 up to 10 on Bridge 2. Definitely a challenge to attempt to play all of that "live", but also perhaps making an argument regarding the benefit of running stems/tracks with your worship band in the alternative.

Is there a software that's similar to this for Windows OS? I'm trying to layer sounds like this while recording because I only have 8 tracks available in my DAW and would love to consolidated keys and pads and adding some strings would be pretty insane. Sadly I just don't have a mac OS machine for Mainstage.

Ninja attack advertisements? If you're referring to ads that Google/KZbin is showing you in the videos, those are typically based on your own browsing/viewing history - we don't have any control over those. You can use an ad blocker, or sign up for KZbin Premium, and you'll never see an ad again.
