PROBLEM SOLVING: THE JAPANESE METHOD

What am I talking about now, then?
The historically conscious will know the history of Japan's industrial development after World War 2.
A new "war" started between Japan and the United States, where the latter made claims that Japan would never be able to produce as cheap, good and big as themselves, and then they thought especially about cars and tankers.

Japan, for its part, promised that it could beat the United States in all areas mentioned.
How could Japan do this, when they didn't have the necessary knowledge or experience?
They simply bought American cars and tankers, disassembled them and studied all components in depth.

After a short time, they had produced cars that were cheaper and better than the United States, and they followed up by producing tankers that were much cheaper, better and larger than the United States.


I used the same procedure for my styles from MIDI to Pa5X:
I found a style I had previously made for Pa3X that was particularly good, and opened the midi file in Anvil Studio to study the details - where I immediately saw something I've never seen before:
Bass is split into 2 tracks, while Piano is split into 3 tracks.

   

Previously I've only seen this done with Drums, which is also done here.
MIDI files that have had split tracks for Drums have often resulted in better styles than other traditionally made ones.

This split also opens up the possibility of advanced edits of all sounds that are split - for example, you can change the choice of sound for each split drum track, and achieve interesting effects, much like I have done in the past with Cubase.

I didn't know until now that this can be done with Anvil Studio, and plan to do some experiments soon.

By the way, Anvil Studio has come up with an updated version, which has a number of improvements, and for the first time I now have the best possible sound from MIDI, because Anvil Studio now works optimally with existing equipment.
