I have a Roland HP-800, which is a 1987 vintage EP. I got it because it works well, but it's sending Control Change 123 (all notes off) to Mainstage whenever I release all of the notes. This cuts out the sound immediately. I tried using other softwares to block out CC 123 but to no avail. What can I do about this? This doesn't happen when using Logic Pro, probably because it doesn't accept as many control changes.

Try using MidiPipe (free app). You ought to be able to route the keyboard via MidiPipe and block CC123. MainStage should use MidiPipe's output as its keyboard input rather than the actual keyboard. Good luck!
I just checked that link and it is working for me.
You need to drag a midi input to the right hand side and set it to your keyboard.
Then drag in a message converter, select CC on the left, value 123 and set CC on right to 0.
Then drag a midi output. Set to midipipe output 1 - that is what you need to use as your midi input in MainStage.
2.) MidiPipe output 1 doesn't seem to be working... everything seems to be fine. Do I have to apply it in MIDI studio, or something?
So, is there a way to either apply the CC blockout in MainStage at concert level or apply it trough MidiPipe?
I used the application before and must have deleted the software. Now that I'm trying to re-install it, Mac says that it needs to be updated to work with the operating system. I didn't update my computer since then. Can you direct me to a working download page?
That link doesn't work. It's a 404 page. Fortunately, I was able to recover my old Midi Pipe file and it's opened. I have no idea how it works. Are you able to tell me how to get it to filter out CC 123?
Not sure there is a way to block at concert level.
The midipipe out 1 needs to be set as the input to the instruments.
You will need to put it as a keyboard on the canvas of mainstage under the layout section.
