visualizers are something of a soft spot for me, i love making things react to music, movement, or basically anything, however, offline video editors like AE and premiere are reaaaaallly slow for this (since theyre not meant for it), so, even though i have to code everything, processing is still my favorite tool for this sort of work, its just a rly comfy visual playground i wld like if it had line detection for runtime errors tho

So you wrote a nice line, and you know what the main instruments are that will play it. Now what? Often, you need to support that idea with further orchestration, to help it stand out to the listener or give it more richness and character. Just like bolding some text, you can 'thicken' your line to give it more emphasis.

Here are 7 of my recent sketches from 2.2 - 2.4.2023, practicing the technique of thickening. They should be considered successful if what you hear sounds like a 'bigger (thicker) version' of the initial melodic idea, rather than just many more voices playing.
