![]() ![]() ![]() If you want to change the program change number that MainStage has automatically assigned to a patch, select the patch, then go to the workspace and change the number where it says “Program Change”. To trigger the second patch in the list, press the 2 button on Looptimus. To trigger the first patch in the list, press the 1 button on Looptimus. By default, Looptimus recognizes these numbers. This number is its program change number that MainStage has automatically assigned. If you look on the right side of each patch, you should see a small number. Once this has been tested and it is working correctly, close out of this window. There should be a program change, a note on, and a note off. If it is working, there should be 3 different messages. To double check that Program Change Mode is working correctly with MainStage, in MainStage go to “Window”, then “MIDI Message Monitor”. Once the Looptimus reads “PC”, press the stop button again. input and output ports, connect a cable between them for stereo loopback. The 3 different modes Looptimus has to offer are Default Mode (DEF), Pad Mode (PAD), and Program Change Mode (PC). Live Versions: All Operating System: All There are three common methods for. Hoping I can get some help on figuring this out. Im trying the demo for loopback but it doesnt seem to get any audio. Ive been able to get audio from console, but I cant seem to route anything from MainStage into OBS. To change modes on the Looptimus, hold down the stop button for 3 seconds, then use the next and previous buttons to toggle between the modes. Im trying to route my audio for streaming live music using MainStage as well as UA Console through OBS Studio. This is the mode your Looptimus needs to be in in order to switch between patches. With the help of a midi controller such as a Looptimus, this can easily be done.įirst let’s get Looptimus in Program Change Mode. When using MainStage, you’ll want an easy way to switch between patches in your patch list. Published by Loop Community on March 31, 2022 Here is a picture of the looper as a plugin.How to Trigger Patch Changes in MainStage Mainstage lets you set up your workspace visually, even with the looper. So I built a workspace that includes the four loopers I had decided to implement. I had another look at Mainstage and its looper plugin and found out that it is actually capable of calculating the tempo of the first loop with the Mainstage looper as well. So I started looking for other plugins and DAWs with this functionality again. When Ableton Live 11 came out early this year, I asked again. I reported that to Ableton support months ago for Ableton 10, and they answered that they knew about the bug but it wasn’t a priority for them. ![]() In other words, the crossfade isn’t working correctly. However, when I used the Ableton Live looper with the feature “set & follow song tempo,” the song tempo was set perfectly after closing the first loop but it had clicks and pops at the edges of the loop. The main problem was that most Ableton Live users seem to use the looper with a click. I even bought an Ableton Push 2, which is a great device in its own right. ![]() But it was much more complicated to adjust it to my workflow. Ableton Live with its built-in looper looked very promising. But the Mobius looper plugin hasn’t been updated and is no longer supported in macOS Catalina, so I had to look for a new looper. Mainstage combined with the Mobius looper has worked well for me for over 10 years. After that, all time-sensitive plugin effects, like delay, are in time. While recording the first loop and closing it with my foot pedal, Mainstage or Ableton Live calculates the exact tempo of the loop. So I use an intelligent feature that Mainstage has in combination with the Mobius looper or Ableton Live. Instead of playing with a click to give me the perfect timing on the first loop, I use a different method: I don’t like using headphones live. It seems possible that I may be able to play live again soon, so I’m currently working on my new and improved live setup. I spent a year trying to switch from Mainstage to Ableton Live, but I eventually had to give up. ![]()
