OVERVIEW

Thanks for purchasing the ‘Cinematic Ambient Pads’ bundle!

These 12 minute long audio files can be used in a variety of different ways:

- As ambient pad drones to fill out a worship song

- As a transition tool to bridge gaps between songs

- A soundscaping tool for live performance

Because they are not tempo specific, they can be used in any tempo, time signature, and the bundle includes every key. They've been crafted musically to work equally well in songs that are in Major or Minor keys.

The bundle comes with two different Ambient Shimmer sounds that were recorded in each key for variety and flexibility.

These pad stems (WAV/M4A) require NO ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE and can be used in any DAW, or played from your smartphone or any other audio playback device that accepts WAV or M4A (Depending on which product you purchased).

What's included:

8x WAV & M4A files for all 12 keys

Bonus MainStage Template

MAINSTAGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

First make sure you have downloaded the whole product including the Samples.
Store all of the samples somewhere you can easily find them. We recommend either of these two locations:
Macintosh HD > Your Username > Music > Audio Music Apps > Samples
Macintosh HD > Your Username > Music > Audio Music Apps > Multitracks.com Samples

The first time you open the MainStage Concert you may be prompted to locate the WAV files on your harddrive. After locating and selecting all 24 WAV files I suggest saving the template so you don’t need to repeat this process again. The template is now installed and ready to use! If you wish t to change the location of these samples, you may need to re-locate the files the next time you open the MainStage concert.
