New Patches for MainStage from Nick Stailey Friday, May 13, 2016 Today we’re pleased to announce Nick Stailey’s Essential Pads Patch Collection for MainStage. Essential Pads was initially created using Thor, the Polyphonic Synthesizer included in Reason and Nick has made these patches available in MainStage. This collection is distinctly analog and covers both aggressive and ambient sounds. It’s a great collection of Pads for MainStage that would add some great analog styled patches to anyone's library.
New Patch Collections from Anthony Catacoli Thursday, April 28, 2016 Today we’re announcing two brand new patch collections from Anthony Catacoli. AC Basics is a MainStage file for MainStage 3.2.1 and higher that includes 2 patches previously unreleased by Anthony, a custom reverb setting and all of Anthony’s go to effects and routings. This is the MainStage set that Anthony uses on the road live with Soulfire Revolution and Generación 12. If you’re looking for a great starting place for using MainStage, this is a great choice as it’s been road tested and approved. Anthony is also releasing AC Reverbs which is perhaps the most unique Patch Collection we’ve ever released. It’s a series of Impulse Responses that can be used in any Convolution Reverb including Space Designer (Logic, MainStage), Convolution Reverb (Ableton Live Suite), TL Space (ProTools). Anthony modeled these off of his favorite hardware reverb pedal and it allows him to incorporate his favorite reverb sounds into his setup without the need for a pedal. If you have a Convolution Reverb plugin and you’re looking for some great presets to use, you’ll want to check this collection out!

Analog Shimmer Pads by Peter James Now Available for Nord! Monday, April 4, 2016 Today we’re pleased to announce Analog Shimmer Pads for Nord from Peter James. This is a prefect companion to Analog V Pad for Nord that Peter recently released. Peter has used Analog V Pad on countless Hillsong Worship records and Hillsong United records and he shares, ”After releasing my go-to pad, Analog V Pad, I quickly realized something was missing. I often put my pad sounds through different Shimmer type reverbs, both hardware and software reverbs, to create different textures and atmospheres. So I decided to create Analog Shimmer Pads: a collection of my 4 favorite Shimmer Pads tweaked to sound exactly how I like them. These are 100% Wet Shimmer Reverb versions designed to be used with the original Analog V Pad. Big thanks to Casey Glass for the additional programming for this product!” If you’re a Nord Stage 2 or 2EX user you’ll love these sounds, especially paired with the Analog V Pad for Nord.

New Patches from Anthony Catacoli - Red Pads for MainStage Tuesday, March 1, 2016 Red Pads is a brand new collection of sounds for MainStage from Anthony Catacoli. Building on the success of his Red Essentials collection for Nord, Anthony has taken the custom samples he used for that collection and loaded them into MainStage. Anthony added custom effects to help you get the most from all the samples and pre-mapped controls so you can get access to the important controls quickly. The sounds are incredibly expressive and very usable and best of all, you only need MainStage to run these. No other plugins or effects are needed.
New Patches from Peter James - Nigel Hendroff Ambient Pads Friday, February 26, 2016 Today we're pleased to announce a new Patch Collection from Peter James and Nigel Hendroff titled Nigel Hendroff Ambient Pads. This is the second collaboration between Nigel and Peter. Their first collection together, Nigel Hendroff Ambient Guitars, consisted of recordings of Nigel that could be used as drones to fill out your sound and that your band could play with. With this collection, Peter sampled Nigel playing every note on his guitar with his signature ambient effect setup. Peter loaded those samples into MainStage and created unique Pad presets so that you can now have Nigel play along with you at your church!
Peter James Patches Now Available for Reason Tuesday, February 16, 2016 Analog V Pad and Avalanche Organ are two of Peter James' most popular patches and he has now made them available for Reason. Peter said, “ I recently partnered with a good friend of mine, Greg Burkin, to bring to you a selection of my popular MainStage products into a Reason format! We worked very hard to keep the authenticity of these products so that you still get the exact patch sound heard on the albums and songs they have been used on, but in a Reason format.”
