Many sound libraries include extensive variations that can be used to enhance the sound of a score. For instance the library may include midi riffs recorded during a live performance, multiple velocity level samples or instrument specific samples. When you write your score you include the variation triggers in your score to add that human dimension to the performance.


All ears! Triggers? Important word? Sounds just so! On the research list, and thanks.
