To fatten the part up a bit, I’ll make a separate copy of the entire track
and assign it to a different piano sound. Now I have two tracks playing the
same part on two different instruments. Lastly, I’ll pan them hard right
and left to get a nice stereo spread.

Synthesizers generally don’t replicate guitar sounds very well so I’ll
record the guitar part as a digital audio track. After recording the part I
notice that I played the last chorus section a bit sloppy. I’ll just delete that
section, copy the part from an earlier chorus section and paste it into the
last chorus.
Like the piano part, I can make a copy of this rhythm guitar track and
paste it into another track. Then apply a slight echo effect with the digital
delay transform to one track and a chorus effect to the other track. If I pan
the two tracks hard right and left I’ll get a nice stereo guitar effect.

Now that my rhythm tracks are done, I’ll lay down a lead vocal part.
Once I’ve finished recording the part I can smooth out the volume levels
with the Compressor/Limiter Transform in Digital Orchestrator. This will
smooth out the dynamics and allow me to boost the vocal gain in the final
mix.
Next, I’ll add a bit of digital delay for ambience, again using the Digital
Delay Transform.

Adding a full sounding background part creates a very professional
sounding recording. Because layering and editing is so simple in Digital
Orchestrator creating this part is easy.
I’ll record one vocal part a fifth above the lead vocal for one chorus
section. Then I’ll do it again and merge the two tracks so I have two
unison vocal parts on one track.
Then I’ll do the same process with a different part—say a third above. I
now have four vocal parts of one chorus section.
