Mainstage Overview
Eric Levy provides custom MainStage project creation for every marching band and indoor percussion production that includes an electronics package. Each project is carefully designed to organize the show’s samples, synths, sound effects, and processing into a clear, performance-ready system.
Customized Mainstage Package
Packages are designed to ensure that the electronic elements of a production are organized, reliable, and easy for ensembles to use in rehearsal and performance settings. Each project is built specifically for the show, bringing together samples, synths, effects, and processing into a clear and structured performance environment. By designing the MainStage setup to match the flow of the production, the system allows performers and staff to trigger and manage electronics efficiently while maintaining consistent sound and balance with the ensemble.
Perfectly Detailed
Every MainStage project is carefully organized so performers and staff can navigate the electronics with clarity and confidence. Patches, cues, and controls are labeled to reflect the structure of the show, making it easy to locate sounds and trigger events during rehearsals and performances. This attention to detail helps reduce confusion, streamline setup, and ensure that the electronic components of the production function smoothly within the overall design.
Plug & Play
Each MainStage package is fully prepared and delivered as a complete project through cloud access, allowing ensembles to download and open the file with everything already in place. All samples, instruments, routing, and settings are included and organized within the project, so there is no additional setup required. Once opened, the system is ready to use—providing a straightforward, reliable way to integrate electronics into rehearsals and performances.
Built for Efficiency
MainStage projects are designed with rehearsal and performance efficiency as a primary focus. The layout of patches, cue structure, and control mapping is organized to follow the natural flow of the production, allowing performers and staff to move through the show quickly and confidently. Frequently used sounds, transitions, and trigger points are positioned for easy access, reducing the time spent navigating menus or searching for the correct patch during rehearsal. The system is also structured to support consistent output routing and clear gain staging, helping ensembles maintain balanced sound while minimizing technical adjustments. By prioritizing clarity and workflow, the MainStage environment allows performers to focus on the music while the electronics operate smoothly in the background.
Why Use Mainstage?
Each MainStage project is designed specifically for the production, integrating the show’s sound design, samples, synth layers, and effects into a single streamlined performance workspace. Patches are clearly labeled and arranged to match the flow of the show, allowing performers and staff to navigate cues quickly during rehearsals and performances.
The project is built with the needs of marching arts ensembles in mind. This includes efficient patch changes, consistent output routing for front ensemble amplification systems, and careful gain staging to maintain clarity and balance with acoustic instruments. The layout is structured to reduce setup time and simplify operation for students and staff.
In addition to organization and sound design integration, the MainStage file functions as the central hub for triggering and processing electronics. Whether the show uses atmospheric textures, sound effects, synth layers, or live processing, all elements are consolidated into one dependable system.
By including custom MainStage project creation with every electronics package, Eric ensures that ensembles receive a complete and performance-ready electronic production environment that supports both rehearsal efficiency and confident live performance.
