Chapter 5 Work in Edit mode 84
Change the tempo when you select a set
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 Tempo overview on page 90.
Change the tempo using a set
1 In the Patch List, select the set.
2 To activate the set tempo when the set is selected, select the “Change Tempo to” checkbox.
3 In the Set Inspector, set the set tempo using the “Change Tempo to” value slider.
Change the tuning for sets
By default, new sets (and most existing ones) use the same tuning method as the concert. You
can change the tuning for a set so that it uses a dierent tuning. When you change the tuning
method for a set, the patches in the set use the set-level tuning unless you change the tuning at
the patch level.
Change the tuning for a set
1 In the Set Inspector, click the Tuning tab.
2 Choose the tuning you want the set to use from the Method pop-up menu.
Collapse sets in the Patch List
You can collapse sets in the Patch List. When you collapse a set, you can select the set and use
any channel strips or busses at the set level but cannot select or play patches in the set while in
Edit mode.
Collapse a set
m In the Patch List, click the disclosure triangle for the set.
You can uncollapse the set by clicking its disclosure triangle again. Collapsing a set has no eect
on whether you can select patches in the set in Perform mode.
For information about creating and using sets, see Work with sets overview on page 83.
Override 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.
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 parent ranges” checkbox.
