We are giving here some hints that can be helpful for users to create
more realistic compositions:
-
Modulate repetitive cycles. You can liven
up a repetitive succession of components (created through Create Linked
Copies) by detaching (Detach Linked Copy) certain ones, and then changing
their modulation (emphasis, pitch, etc...) in a different way. This
will give a more human effect to the sequence.
-
Add a silence gap between two parts of a Wind
instrument. Wind instruments notes play until you explicitly stop
them. To add a silence gap between two components, open the last one
(before the gap) and fade it out with a volume envelope. Please note
that if this component is a Linked Copy, you will have to detach it
beforehand, otherwise each copy will fade out in the same way.
-
Create a complex meend (pitch bend).
You can create the most intricate meends by combining pitch
bend over several cells. You can for instance split a long cell into
many parts, and then specify for each part a different meend.
Make sure you uncheck the option for playing the next stroke in each
subsequent cell, so that you have a single, continuous sound.
-
Add stereo effect to your song. You can now
create a 3D effect in your composition by setting a different pan
on each track. For example, you can move the rhythmic section more
on one side and the melodic instruments more on the other. You can
also rearrange them in a different way.
