I am 27, I don't know much about formal music so I just compose as a hobby. I put in a lot of hours into it so my music sounds decent. Been doing it since my senior year in high school. And i enjoy every second of it.

I am incredibly lost and I was hoping someone can look at the picture I attached and just fill me in and directing me. The operations manual is not helping me and I have searched the internet for tutorials. I am a simple composer and don't know the first thing about
"music production" and didn't know there was a difference until 3 days ago. So far I have learned how to add effects play around with the Equalizers and some other minor stuff but setting up an Expression Map is proving to be a little more difficult.
I know HOW to setup an Expression Map and assign it to a midi track which enables my articulations i'm looking for. But when i play it, it won't play back these articulations and I know it has something to do with the way I fill in the Output Mapping section and the Remote column under Sound Slots as displayed in this picture of the VST Setup. I understand key switching happens when you have a keyboard and particular keys enable different articulations. But i don't have one and i'm simply trying to make it work. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Its just a theme of water when i wrote this. its suppose to be, i guess, soft and a bit mysterious but also sweet. the name aquamarine i thought was pretty cool. here's the link..

im not really the guy to talk to about rock or anything like that. but the second one is ok. its kinda epic. extend it to a full song. complete what you have. i guess nothing on the second one either. i hate that quality of sound but extend it to get a full feel from it.
