Arrangement Template

[balonny]

Hi there,
In case anyone is willing to talk about or share their arrangement templates please do so here. In my view arranging is more demanding part of track making than programing those 8 basic bars (or 4 or 16 as you like) from where the arrangement phase starts.
Any tips and ideas about that are most welcome..

The best tip I ever got was find a track that you like or is a similar vibe to your own. Put it into arrangement and copy the arrangement 8 bars at a time etc. You can tweak it so it's your own arrangement but it puts your track into perspective (from a sound quality perspective also) and will help you map out your track.

That sounds like a good idea.
Thank you!!

Hmmm, that's a different way (old school as he calls it) to work in arrangement view. I usually trigger clips in session recording into arrangement and then do more arranging there. But this seems to possibly be maybe a faster way, then again it depends on style of music possibly as well. But learn something new to try! Thanks!
