Hi swingbabymix,

I'm glad you like the Guzheng! And, that's a great suggestion for the Yangqin.

The pipa, erhu & dizi are categorized as "background" instruments, not "soloists". This means that while they're not "chording" instruments, they still work very well mixed in with vocals and other instruments. One thing you might want to try is a combination of the partial regeneration feature along with the volume automation feature with these types of "background" instruments.

This song here was done with a new style (_AIR.sty) that used both the guzheng and dizi. In making this song, I used partial regeneration on the dizi so I could get phrases that blended well with the vocals, and then I also used the volume automation to bring out the dizi altogether in places.
