Renaming Sets

When you create a set, it is given a default name. You can rename a set in the same

way you rename a patch in the Patch List.

To rename a set:

1 Double-click the set in the Patch List.

A text field appears around the set name, which is selected.

2 Type a new name in the set name field.

Using a Set to Change the Tempo

You can give a set its own tempo setting so that when you select the set, the tempo

changes to the set tempo setting. MainStage uses the new tempo until you select

another patch or set with its own tempo setting, tap a new tempo, or until MainStage

receives tempo information from incoming MIDI messages. For more information about

using and changing tempo in MainStage, see “Using Tempo in a MainStage Concert”

on page 39.

To change the tempo using a set:

1 In the Patch List, select the set.

2 In the Set Inspector, set the set tempo using the “Change Tempo to” value slider.

3 Click the “Change Tempo to” checkbox to activate the set tempo when the set is

selected.

Overriding Concert-Level Key Ranges for a Set

If a software instrument channel strip exists at the concert level, the concert-level

channel strip takes precedence over any set-level software instrument channel strips

within its key range. This means that when you play any notes in the key range of the

concert-level channel strip on a keyboard controller, you hear only the concert-level

channel strip, even when a patch is selected in a set with a set-level channel strip.

You can override the concert-level channel strip for a channel strip at the set level, so

that the set-level channel strip takes precedence over the concert-level one.

To override concert- or set-level key ranges:

1 In the Patch List, select the set with the channel strip that you want to override the

concert-level channel strip.

2 In the Channel Strips area, select the channel strip with the key range that you want to

override the concert-level key range.

3 Select the “Override concert and set ranges” checkbox.
