Great content as always! I have a question about using midi cc.

How do you reset the values to 0 when starting a new idea? When I want to start a new idea using the strings, their CC values from a previous idea make the instrument lower in volume and that low volume is still there even if I don't have anything recorded yet.

How do I fix it so the CC values go back to 0 so I can write new ideas?

Interesting, said to use non-tonal triads...then used tonal triads.
