Automatically patch change (I assume) in Playback plugin?

Hi Wizards :-)
I would like to be able to do the following in Playback plugins in Mainstage if possible.

I have 4 samples:
No. 1 Start sample.
No. 2 A loop sample.
No. 3 A sample that slowly fades in and continues for the rest of the song.
No. 4 A short sample.

No. 1 should automatically start No. 2 when No. 1 has finished playing.
No. 2 should stop when you manually select No. 4, while No. 3 should keep playing.

Can anybody help me with that?
Kind regards, Michael Ziegler from Denmark speaking through ChatGPT :-)

Real life experience - what is best for Mainstage live?

Hi everyone!

I'm a solo musician/singer looking to upgrade my old Macbook Pro 2015 (with 8gb of ram) into something newer to run my live shows with Mainstage without struggling much. I actually use one or two midi keyboards + one synth and backing tracks in some songs to process the voice in real time. Not much more...

Thinking of a gig composed by 20 songs (the maximum) with 2-3 waves plugins on each and 1-2 digital synths (Arturia Analog Lab - Serum - Native Mainstage Synths):

would it be better to get a Macbook Air M4/M5 or a Macbook Pro M4/M5? The cost difference is not that small, and I thought of an Air with M4 and 24gb of ram, but I'm not sure about thermal throttling and fanless being actually a problem or only if you run 10 omnispheres at the same time.

Does anyone have any experience with these machines? Thanks a lot in advance!

Audio burst/glitch on patch change in MainStage (Only on Omnisphere patches)

I’m running into a frustrating issue with Omnisphere 3 inside MainStage on my Mac. Every single time I switch to an Omnisphere patch, it triggers a sudden, burst of sound/glitch data before I even touch the keyboard. Appreciate any insight
