Anyway hey I want to add some horns. Though I don't want it everywhere on my song. This won't be a masterpiece yet. Nothing tricky like you guys are probably doing. How do I just add it to one section? Lets say add this horn to Section 1a the intro only? I have this horn on my strings.

And can you add two or so solo instruments to one track? It would seem like there would be room for more instruments on that mixer. At any rate I saw some guy on youtube put an instrument to one second I think before. I will have to look for it.


Use the soloist Sly, it can do what you want.

1 open Soloist the big S button.
2 select a midi or realtrack instrument on left.
3 click on "custom round box" near bottom right side.
4 when you click on custom, box will open, select bar at what you want instrument to start playing and for how many bars.
5 you can do same thing again for different bars and have different instruments playing on same soloist track, though as far as I have tried you can't mix midi and realtrack instruments on same track.

Hope this helps you.
