I got asked to take a midi file and turn it into a super hero string section. I split it up into violins 1, violins 2, violas, cellos and double basses. Then I added a string library specifically for staccato strings to give a bit more attack. Finally I wrote a little violin arpeggio and thickened everything up with a string ensemble.
I chose a super dog for the photo because everyone loves dogs, right? 😁
