About Apple MainStage
Sound as great on stage as you do in the studio. Turn your Mac into a live rig. Transform your keyboard, guitar, or vocal performance with an enormous collection of plug-ins and sounds. And give your audience a show they’ll never forget. MainStage has something for every kind of performer. You can use all your favorite instrument and effect plug-ins from Logic Pro. Simplify setup and teardown. Sound as big as you want with backing tracks. And use all your favorite hardware controllers.
Take your performance beyond what you can actually perform. The Arpeggiator features note-based remote controls and flexible latch modes. And Chord Trigger allows you to press a single note and have it trigger an entire complex chord. Use Retro Synth to re-create your favorite electronic sounds from the ’70s and ’80s with an intuitive set of controls. Or bring the authentic sounds of a Hammond B3 organ, Hohner Clavinet D6, or Fender Rhodes or Wurlitzer electric pianos on stage.

Ableton Live
Live organizes multiple passes of an audio or MIDI performance into individual takes. Pick the best moments of each performance and combine them to create your perfect take. Or approach sound design in a new way by splicing together random samples from your library. Link two or more tracks to edit their content simultaneously. This makes editing multi-tracked instruments or performances with multiple musicians easy and fast whilst keeping everything in time across tracks. This feature also works for MIDI tracks. Plug in your MPE-capable controller and immediately add bends, slides and pressure for each individual note in a chord. Add subtle expression variations, morph between chords and create evolving sonic textures. MPE stands for MIDI Polyphonic Expression. This way of using MIDI allows MPE-capable devices to control multiple parameters of every note in real-time for more expressive instrumental performances.

GreenGo
GreenGo is the first browser built for DJs and musicians. Powered by Chromium, it combines a full browsing experience with professional audio tools — so you can discover, analyze, convert, and prepare tracks without ever leaving the page.
Play any track and GreenGo automatically detects BPM, musical key (Camelot & Open Key), energy, and mood within 15 seconds — while the track keeps playing. Download and convert to MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A, OGG, or AAC in one click. Separate any track into vocals, drums, bass, melody, guitar, and piano for remixes and mashups. Explore your library on the SoundMap — an interactive map that plots tracks by audio features to help you discover compatible tracks and plan harmonic sets.
Every download lands analyzed, tagged, and sorted — ready to import directly into Rekordbox, Serato, Traktor, or VirtualDJ. Built-in ad blocker ships enabled by default. Custom themes designed for late-night sessions in the booth and the studio.
