MainStage Patch: Alive (Vivo Estás) - Hillsong Young & Free (Lead Synth Sounds)

"Alive" (the "You Are Alive" (in its Spanish version) by Hillsong Young & Free revolutionized worship music by incorporating strong influences from electronic dance music (EDM) and synthpop. For a church keyboardist, playing this song is a fun challenge: you have to be the life of the party!

The most important sound in this song isn't a classical piano, but rather that Lead Synthesizer sharp and powerful, setting the tone for the intro and the drops. That's why I designed this Exclusive patch for MainStage Focused purely on the lead sounds you need to nail the song.

What makes this patch special?

• Perfect Frequency Cutoff: This lead is EQ'd to stand out in the overall mix, ensuring that every note of your main riff comes through crystal clear above the guitars and drums.
• Adjusted Portamento (Glide): The slight "slip" between notes is calibrated exactly as in the original Young & Free recording.
• CPU Super Lightweight: Even though it sounds massive, the patch is optimized so it won't use up too much of your Mac's RAM or CPU. Play without worrying about it freezing!

Requirements for Use

Designed in a .patch, is 100% compatible with Apple MainStage 3 and Logic Pro X. All the synthesizers used are Apple's native synthesizers (such as the Second the Retro Synth), so you won't have to buy any additional third-party plugins.
