Hi Jeffery - you won't see anything much more than an attempt to balance the instrument volume levels of my small band to big band/concert band/orchestra pieces, because of my small setup. I don't have any high tech sound card (just the one delivered with the tower), and I just use the sound font provided by notation. I've never experimented with panning and basically have a few diminuendos and crescendos here and there - so not much sophistication in that regard. David has done a lot more work in that area. So, in general, I set each instrument's sound level at the beginning and leave it unchanged throughout. It's one of those areas where I would like to spend some time, but just never seem to get around to it. Ralph
