Strings arrangement, not sure how to get started?


It can be vocals, piano, drums, and even bass
It gets stuck in the most important string.


In order to express the melodies that many composers are conceiving, they often take on challenges to create orchestral sounds. However, I have a hard time wondering where to start and how to combine the sounds of stringed instruments that produce various soundsLike the sentence above, many people often ask me questions.



Nevertheless, the rich sound of a string cannot be replaced, so it's not easy to give up. If you could arrange strings with your own hands, what if you could easily learn that know-how?






An active professional arranger will let you know.

Hello! Arranged for various music-related programs such as Immortal Song, The Hit, Yu-Hee-yeol Sketchbook, Sugarman, 300, Mitsubaek, and Sing4UI'm Shin Sung-jin, a musician who works as a pop music writer/arranger, string arranger, session man, and artist 'Pencil Case'.



The voice most loved by Koreans

“Ballad,” which everyone has at least one of their own favorite songs, is the genre most loved by Koreans If you want to carefully express various sentiments, you can't miss a string arrangement, right?






K.will, Monday Kids, Huesung, Na Yoon-kwon, Credit Jae, V.O.S, Jeong Seung-hwan, etc. 1Moments I spent 5 years with Korea's leading ballad artistsBased on, I would like to share all the know-how and tips in this class.







part1 Starting with the basic settings for string arrangement

First, you'll learn how to set up a virtual instrument, simple shortcuts, and draw a modulation volume graph (automation). I'll also show you how to use the expression pedal to arrange strings, which is the most important part of this lesson.





part2 How to make an orchestra in my hands

I need to create a melody with a variety of instruments for a full-scale string arrangement, right? I'll enrich the sound by building layers such as first violin, second violin, viola, cello, high dubbing for the first violin, and solo cello performance.





part3 Finishing work for the final recording

Finally, I'm going to finish the sheet music for the actual instrument recording. Use the program to select a basic template, divide words with basic information, split song forms, enter notes, and extract to PDF








So that your melodies are freer

You don't have to be afraid of string arrangements anymore. You'll be able to freely use string arrangements in the ballad genre, fast songs, and medium tempos. Now, why not express the melodies that were in your head and heart in a variety of ways? I'll see you in class.

Class Kit · Coaching Session

Required for the class

Here is an introduction to the kit.

  • Output terminals: output 1,2 (mono standard phone jack) /espression pedal (stereo standard phone jack)

What if there is no virtual string instrument?

This is a Yamaha 88 keyboard designed so that you can try it out with synth strings.

If you already have a keyboard, but are looking for a new keyboard for the intermediate course

Why don't you take this opportunity to make a new one?

You can choose between MONTAGE 8 and MODX8.
