MainStage 3.0.2 ALWAYS copies Samples into Concert File

Hi,

 

Is it just me or is this a bug?

 

In MainStage 3.0.2 when I select save as concert and DESELECT copy Samples into concert it still copies all the files into the concert. So I get a huge Concert File.

In MainStage 3.0.1 when I do the same, it just saves the concert file without the samples.

 

Basically it´s good to have the concert file as a package with everything (Samples and Playbackfiles) you need.

But I like to save every concert seperatly I performed on stage. The file name is containing the location and Date (e.G. Munich 20/04/13). So if do this right now I get 100s of MainStage Concert each 2 GB big.....not very handy....

 

 

how do you handle it?

 

best regards

I have the same issue here with 3.0.2 - and the worst thing is, even though MainStage still seems to be saving all assets as part of the file, when I load this file into MainStage on a different computer, it can't find any of the playback files or samples, even though they appear to be embedded!

That is indeed very strange.

I've noticed that too. I embed my playbacks. When I open the playback plugin and remove the file and add a new file, MS opens a folder which includes all "embedded" playback files. So it looks like it is stored in some hidden folder or something. I've attached a screenshot that confirms this (MS 3.0.3).
