"So now we are going to go through and add some "horns". I am actually going to use a symphled which sounds pretty cool, but if you go up to track seven, we are on track seven, I hit "menu", actually I do not hit menu, I hit "category", I went to "led" which is your different symph sounds. You get all these sounds, I like the "hip hop led", so now we have that hip hop led and these sound really good if you put effects on them, so I am going to give this some reverb, or no some delay here. Then I hit "exit", now there is a couple of different ways, if you hold down a note and go like this you can get different reverb or you can mess around with this thing. You get different effects with these pedals over here to; these buttons add three set effects. So now to get a good sound I am going to play with it first, so I already have the piano doing a lot, so I am going to make it a simple line, let us see here. So again I want to accommodate for the other instruments that are going on in the background and I want to work around those. So you want to make sure you do not really clutter your beats, if you have too much going on at the same time it is rough on the ears. So you want really work around what you have already put in there and get some nice horn lines going on."
