6. House Styles
6.1 Instrument Staves
Within the Mojo Horn Section House Style are custom instruments staves for each
root patch in the library. A root patch is any patch dened as the default sound for an
instrument (e.g., a basic sustain sound). Staves are not dened for individual articula-
tions (e.g., pizzicato) as these sounds can be triggered by an appropriate articulation or
technique instruction in the score.
Depending on the library and its programming, these staves perform a variety of dier-
ent functions that aid in the integration of the sample library. eir primary purpose is
to ensure sounds allocate properly and articulations switch correctly for every patch in
a library. is is accomplished by assigning each sta to a specic, unique, sound and/
or dening drum and percussion maps. Secondary purposes include altering transposi-
tions, normalizing SoundStage positioning, panning, providing alternate microphone
positions, string tunings, and other similar functions.
e custom staves can be found in an ensemble, named for the library to which they
correspond, in the Add/Create Instruments dialog and the Instrument Change dialog.
Staves are further sorted within the ensemble by instrument type (brass, wind, etc.) or
the folder structure of the library. Each individual sta contains a prex identier in
brackets indicating what library the sta is designed for. e prex for the Mojo Horn
Section library is: [MOJO].
