[@repellentment]

I don't know are you limited to piano and strings only but it would be even more sick if you added to this a few more orchestral instruments. Good luck on contest.

[@ianmckaymusic]

Thank you! I can add any instrument, I just chose to only use piano and strings.

[@gemergerman3770]

[@prashanthsrinivasan2680]

what have you done to the strings track? im new to music production and im trying to learn

[@ianmckaymusic]

In fl studio, you have the ability to automate certain parameters in the piano roll. Here, I am automating the volume.

[@prashanthsrinivasan2680]

​@@ianmckaymusic woa okay thanks!

[@blap9467]

[@nolfred98]

WTF is that automation on the strings??

[@ianmckaymusic]

It's for the volume. You can "edit events" in the piano roll. It's essentially an automation
