Instruments come in many shapes and sizes
Each one with a sound that surely surprises
From drums that go boom and guitars that ring
To pianos that make melodies sing

But to make them sound just right
You need to use your knowledge and your might
Format the music with the right program
And you'll be able to hear it all calm

Formants are the sounds that give it life
Like when you sing or hum in strife
They add the depth and make it full
So when you listen, you won't be dull

The frame of the music keeps it all in place
Like a puzzle with each piece in its space
Flams and grooves make the rhythm flow
And you can't help but move and go

A gate helps control the sound you hear
Making sure it's crystal clear
While gain brings the volume up or down
So you can hear it all around

Gliding notes add a magical touch
As the music flows, it's hard to clutch
And a fader helps mix the sound
So you can hear each note that's found

All of these gears make the music complete
And it's amazing what they can achieve
So listen to the music and enjoy the ride
With all the instruments, it's a magical vibe.
