This is a HIGH value video. I’ve already put together my rig with main stage and SK but this video will help so many teams on making that step into a live keys rig! Love your stuff.
As always, your guide is straight to the point and sincere. Thank you so much David for the advice and the blessing you represent to many of us. Greetings from Guayaquil, Ecuador.
I love the way you explain the setup, my question is, can i use the Korg plugin. And most of churches/band in my community believe in splitting on keyboard e.g Bass in left hand and other voice in right hand.
There are two possibilities he went over: In the first one, the keyboard, (or MIDI controller), connects to a laptop with a midi cable or a USB > MIDI cable. Then your sounds will go out into your mixer via your laptop's 1/8 inch jack input (like the ones your earphones has) throught a cable that has (1) 1/8 jack on one end, (2) 1/4 inch (the bigger jacks like instrument cables have) jacks on the other end. Those (2) quarter inch (1/4) jacks can go into a mixer straight, but it is highly recommended to go first into a direct box (D.I. Box) to reduce any grounding and humming noises. if you use a DI BOX you will need two more cables that go from the box to the big mixer, these are typically microphone style cables or XLR cables. This is the easy and cheapest setup to get your keyboard and your virtual instruments to come out of your PA system. If you need the other version that includes the audio interface, (and which the creator and many other professional musicians prefer), i can go into that set up too. It's very similar and there are only 1 or 2 key differences.
Hello David. Great guide. We are about to take the leap into Sunday Sounds, and this has been incredibly helpful. Been using a MAC for presentation software for about 5 months now, so I can use it, just don't like the lack of user friendliness of the MAC. But, Mainstage is best way forward at this point, so I will continue pushing through. It looks like I need 4 USB ports. 1. keyboard, 2. NanoKontrol2, 3. Output to my Presonus USB interface, 4. Mouse (touchpad is too inefficient). My Macbook Pro is plenty powerful, but only has two USBs. Will a small USB hub work? I'm concerned that it won't handle all the inputs simultaneously.
Hi!!! Can u also please make a video where you can show how to play with your drumbeats? I wanna use sunday keys but sometimes i need styles or drum beats on fast songs. Thank you so much
I am starting at below grass roots beginner. quick question to clear up confusion. need recommended I Pad need Mainstage software app Need Sunday sounds for the sound effects. Is that correct? Great job David!
your piano sound is great. I'm just getting into VSTs for live performance. I have an issue - I am getting a weird sound on my main stage / logic pianos (the Rhodes sound is fine). But the piano sounds like its underwater when I go from laptop to the Focusrite to a speaker / amp. I can't figure out how to correct this. Any ideas? Note - the pianos sound awesome (especially the Bosendorfer) through headphones) but not through the speaker/amp.
Depending on your budget it can still be affordable to pick up a used Mac and a budget midi controller, often less expensive than a hardware keyboard! That's what we'd recommend if it's possible for you.
It's one of our favorites for 88 key midi keyboards in that price bracket. They also make a weighted version (linked in the mid-range rig) that is a bit more expensive but also a great value. Lots of options to choose from though so if you have a local music store its worth spending some time there to see how different keyboards feel and respond.
Hi, we do have in depth support tutorials as part of the video resource page that all Sunday Keys users have access to. They cover how to open Sunday Keys, downloading all the sounds, connecting your gear, and lots more on how to use the sounds and features of the template. You can find it by clicking the "need help" button in the bottom corner of the template.
Thank you very much for this great tutorial! David, would you recommend any electric piano that I can also use as a MIDI keyboard? See the thing is that we have two keyboard players in my church, and I am ready to spend a lot of time on learning MainStage and use my MacBook for the rig, whereas the other person is more of a traditional piano player and they would only play piano and MAYBE layer a pad if this option is available on the keyboard. So instead of buying two instrument (an electric piano and a MIDI keyboard) would you recommend any simple affordable electric pianos that we could also use as a MIDI keyboard for the rig? Thank you again a lot!
@@SundaySoundsthank you! But M-audio is just a MIDI keyboard, whereas I need a keyboard with sounds for my second keyboardist. I was thinking maybe Yamaha P45 of similar?
@@SundaySounds thankyou very much for the information :) , yes sure i want to buy this , , , , “but, it will be compatible with i pad pro ? Or just a macbook ? what keyboard can match this application? can JUNO ds 88 or Yamaha PSR 750 use it?
@@gontarputra9140 You'll need a Mac, but you can control it with Touch OSC app on your iPad if you like. Any keyboard that sends midi should work as long as its compatible with your computer's OS.
I’ve seen tones of video and they all say MainStage and Sunday Keys, I’ve bought both of them both Sunday keys. I’ve not been able to get that worship set up
Just buy a workstation keyboard or synthesizer :) Roland FA, Yamaha MODX, Korg Krome, Nord Electro, etc. Pretty sure they cost less than than this setup(probably sounds better too) and you will have a more streamlined setup.
IDK that I have come across a keyboard workstation that was as user friendly as this MainStage set up though. When working with volunteers at a church, those things have tone taken in consideration. Also -- especially for portable churches.. a 61-88 midi controller is a lot easier to store and tote around than a full 88 key workstation.
MainStage updates are often separate from Mac OS updates or features inside the Mac. MainStage Help is a great resource and we have lots of MainStage tutorials here: sundaysounds.com/blog
Howcome when I setup my rig and hear through the headphone jack with headphones it sounds good. But then when I send it to the front house or switch my output to the mixer. It doesn’t sound the same... :( need help on that?
Hi Emmanuel, you might consider sending the sound out through an audio interface. If you need further help send us an email to open a ticket and let us know what you've tried so far and specifics on what isn't sounding the same for you: sundaysounds.com/contact
Something that really annoys me about the stock piano sounds is that once you press the sustain pedal, you loose the highest intensity sample, and the piano sounds muddled even if you got the keys very hard. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks!
Is the Scarlett audio interface taking the audio signal FROM the MacBook and sending it TO the PA system? Am I understanding that correctly? I’ve only ever used an audio interface for recording and not for live performances. I have a schiit modi 3 DAC that I thought I would use to convert the audio signal from my MacBook (digital) to an analogue signal and then send that out to the PA
You should be able to get by but you might have to deal with a bit of latency and smaller patch lists. If you are looking to buy we would recommend something from the MacBook "Pro" lineup, but if you already own an Air its certainly worth trying out!
This for the person made this video, I'm a beginner touch keyboard and paino.. I just got my new 88 key Rockjam RJ88DP and I will love to learn play wordship song but problem that have none of my voice are matching with ya keyboard piano, I'm struggling in the part briged of spirt of living god is the hardest part to learn do right because I don't have someone telling me is not like that or looking at my fingers... if their any one that have the heart of god to teaching how to play this wordship song god will reward you in heaven for the good thing you have done.. every time you teach someone it lead to back to lord but not only play paino but you know what I mean.. please provide me some list what to get for my keyboard because I don't want to lose money buying wrong thing
Dear Jose Rojas, what song are you trying to learn and whats Your level of playing? You did the right thing because you started and You have keys. Trust in God and do not give up. You can learn everyday. Even when You play for many years and that makes music awesome.
Hi david and anyone, I’m still quite confuse on signal path on part 19:08 audio interface. Normally you connect your audio interface via usb to laptop. How do we send the output signal from computer to mixer/speaker?
A shame that you not only barely mention using Windows, your site has nothing about Windows at all. A LOT of people can't afford Mac's and/or already have Windows laptops, and you ignore them completely. Of course, you also don't mention used laptops, which makes me wonder... I worship using Windows, and yes, it's a little harder to get started, but my setup works fine. If you want to run Windows for any reason (including certain draconian repair policies), don't be discouraged! Ableton Lite on Windows works great, and there are a ton of free and low cost plugins that have great sound. Depending on the keyboard / controller(s) you choose, you may even get a few for free!
Sunday Keys does run on Ableton Live which is available for both Mac and PC users. We do also have quite a few Ableton video tutorials and free Ableton worship patches on our website that should help you and others get started. :) For pricing, Apple does seem to have lowered some of their entry level machines, such as the M1 Macbook Air which is often on sale for $799 and will run MainStage very well. Plus MainStage is only $30 -this makes it very easy for anyone who already owns a Mac to get started. Ableton Live Standard on the other hand is $449, while you can certainly use the lite version you might run into some limitations depending on what you are trying to do. A windows laptop that can run Ableton and last a while will likely cost $500-700. (we would recommend an i5-i7, 16GB ram, SSD) So in the end using new prices its pretty similar to a Mac Keys rig, both can make for really great keys rigs. For those on a limited budget, we always recommend using what you already have and planning your upgrade path around that. Hope that helps!
Thank you. Exact tips I needed. Not sure if you've ever played a Nord keyboard, but somehow that keyboard is used regularly with many teams... piano w/ pad layer. The pad sustains, although I do not own one, the volume pedal/ expression pedal, is assigned to the pad. The pad vol. can be lowered or raised up while playing the piano controlled vol separately. I'm not sure yet, but it sounds to me like I'm heading in the right direction using Mainstage or Ableton as a controller to do the same or better! Wow!!! I'm using an Mac Book Air. i5 processor. mc1889@sbcglobal.net

David, What keyboard do you recommend to get these modern sounds if can’t quite do computer and Mainstage yet? Other than Nord. Too much $😜
Depending on your budget it can still be affordable to pick up a used Mac and a budget midi controller, often less expensive than a hardware keyboard! That's what we'd recommend if it's possible for you.
Very nice to have a listing like this. Is the M-Audio 88 still the "best" Midi keyboard choice if you're not so concerned about weighted keys?
It's one of our favorites for 88 key midi keyboards in that price bracket. They also make a weighted version (linked in the mid-range rig) that is a bit more expensive but also a great value. Lots of options to choose from though so if you have a local music store its worth spending some time there to see how different keyboards feel and respond.

Thanks for watching, Nate! That's the "Modern Roads" EP patch, available in Sunday Keys here: sundaysounds.com/sunday-keys
Hey I use transpose and split funtions will this set-up/software prevent me from using these funtions?
Thank you for this imformative vid👍
No, you can still transpose from your keyboard if you want, or you can do it inside MainStage.
Thank you👍

Normally you connect your audio interface via usb to laptop.
How do we send the output signal from computer to mixer/speaker?
You can do that with instrument cables out the back of the audio interface.
Use 2 quarter inch cables from the back of the interface to the speaker/mixer
Yes, laptop stand.... great advice. Don't be me and put a crack on a brand new 2018 Macbook Pro pls....
Hopefully you had apple care! Laptop stand is worth the investment! 😢

A shame that you not only barely mention using Windows, your site has nothing about Windows at all. A LOT of people can't afford Mac's and/or already have Windows laptops, and you ignore them completely. Of course, you also don't mention used laptops, which makes me wonder...
I worship using Windows, and yes, it's a little harder to get started, but my setup works fine. If you want to run Windows for any reason (including certain draconian repair policies), don't be discouraged! Ableton Lite on Windows works great, and there are a ton of free and low cost plugins that have great sound. Depending on the keyboard / controller(s) you choose, you may even get a few for free!
Sunday Keys does run on Ableton Live which is available for both Mac and PC users. We do also have quite a few Ableton video tutorials and free Ableton worship patches on our website that should help you and others get started. :)
For pricing, Apple does seem to have lowered some of their entry level machines, such as the M1 Macbook Air which is often on sale for $799 and will run MainStage very well. Plus MainStage is only $30 -this makes it very easy for anyone who already owns a Mac to get started.
Ableton Live Standard on the other hand is $449, while you can certainly use the lite version you might run into some limitations depending on what you are trying to do. A windows laptop that can run Ableton and last a while will likely cost $500-700. (we would recommend an i5-i7, 16GB ram, SSD)
So in the end using new prices its pretty similar to a Mac Keys rig, both can make for really great keys rigs.
For those on a limited budget, we always recommend using what you already have and planning your upgrade path around that. Hope that helps!
Thank you. Exact tips I needed. Not sure if you've ever played a Nord keyboard, but somehow that keyboard is used regularly with many teams... piano w/ pad layer. The pad sustains, although I do not own one, the volume pedal/ expression pedal, is assigned to the pad. The pad vol. can be lowered or raised up while playing the piano controlled vol separately. I'm not sure yet, but it sounds to me like I'm heading in the right direction using Mainstage or Ableton as a controller to do the same or better! Wow!!! I'm using an Mac Book Air. i5 processor. mc1889@sbcglobal.net
Can you use Logic Pro X?
Yes you can, but the workflow would look different. We prefer to use Logic for recording.
