Now click on the keyboard in the Layout Mode of Mainstage, and select Learn in the LH corner of the screen. Turn on the Extern section of your Nord Stage, and play the Nord keyboard. Select a Mainstage Concert, then go to the Layout Mode (Command-1). If you don't have the money to get suitable samples or replacements you could try sampling your favourite sounds using autosampler. Open up Mainstage, and select the Focusrite as the audio interface that works with Mainstage. Personally, I have a particular aversion to mainstage's internal piano and e piano sounds. It's a shame to lose the excellent sounds provided by the Stage internally, but you really do need to account for how fickle mainstage can be sometimes. That way when mainstage dies you can quickly switch to something to get you to the end of the song while you restart mainstage. In this case, the emulator has to be an iOS one. The only way to download Mainstage 3 for PC is through an emulator. piano/e piano/organ and set preset 5 to control mainstage via the extern section. As already mentioned below, Mainstage is only available in the Apple Store. When I use mainstage in my rig I set the first 4 presets of a page to bread and butter sounds, e.g. Select a template, then go to the Layout screen in the LH corner of the window and click Layout. When (not if!) mainstage crashes, you're going to be left high and dry. Hook up all of your cables, then open MainStage.

My experience with mainstage would be to recommend against this, you need some sort of backup. This would allow me easilly to switch by filter scripts on mainstage to switch between controlling ns3 or a softsynth or even a module connected trough mainstage.
