What it does

For larger ideas, planning turns a loose direction into an intentional arrangement path. It gives the session a clearer structure before the individual parts are written.

How to use it

  1. 1Start with the kind of track or cue you want to make.
  2. 2Answer the few questions needed to clarify its direction.
  3. 3Use the resulting plan as the basis for the arrangement work that follows.

Useful when

Try it in a real session.

Start with an idea, then keep the project open long enough to make it yours.
