Nick Stailey Pro Templates for Ableton Live and MainStage (Free)

The keyboard sound from Bethel Music He is one of the most influential and respected figures in contemporary worship. Songs like “Goodness of God,” “Raise a Hallelujah,” and “Reckless Love” stand out for their majestic soundscapes, where deep grand pianos blend with evolving analog pads and highly precise rhythmic arpeggiators.

Behind this sound lies Nick Stailey, lead keyboardist, producer, and sound designer for Bethel.

Unlike other resources that are limited to a single program, this professional template includes optimized, standalone projects for the two leading platforms on the scene: Ableton Live (compatible with Windows and Mac) and MainStage (Mac exclusive). We're sharing it 100% free with our community.
