Exiting Full Screen mode from an Edit window no longer cause MainStage to become unresponsive.

Most noticeable are the CPU performance improvements, Auto Sampler updates (hopefully this plugin actually works now…), and support for Logic Remote 1.3.2. MainStage 3.3’s official release notes says “supports Disk Space Management on macOS Sierra,” but I’m not exactly sure what this actually means.īelow are other fixes in this massive MainStage 3.3 update. MacOS Sierra introduced a new disk space management feature, which frees up hard disk space by moving rarely used files to iCloud, regularly emptying the trash, removing unnecessary files, and more. The toolbar can be customized in MainStage 3.3. This is a great feature for organization. The color of set folders can be changed in MainStage 3.3. Previously, a software instrument’s output had to be sent to a bus before it could be used as an input source for sidechaining. In MainStage 3.3, software instruments can be used as an input source for sidechaining. Software Instruments as Sidechain Sources Better Stereo PanningĪpple’s release notes says “true stereo panning provides more control and discrete manipulation of stereo signals,” I assume this is a better stereo panning algorithm. I’d love to see custom Touch Bar function buttons that can be mapped to macros. Hopefully Apple will implement more advanced functions in the future. For example, hitting save on the Touch Bar isn’t any more efficient than simply pressing Cmd-S. More Touch Bar Functions in MainStage 3.3The current functions feel a little gimmicky. In addition to basic functions like saving and switching modes, the Touch Bar can also be used as a virtual piano with customizable scales.

MainStage 3.3 brings Touch Bar support for Apple’s latest 13″ and 15″ MacBook Pros with Touch Bar. Text spacing has been increased in the Assignments & Mappings window. Interface elements are noticeably flatter and more minimalistic, and sort of resembles Ableton Live’s UI. Here they are! New Features and Enhancements A New Modern User InterfaceĪs expected, MainStage 3.3 adopts the same design cues from Logic Pro X’s recent redesign. Today, Apple finally released the much anticipated MainStage 3.3 with tons of new features and fixes.
