"A New Hope" is my 4th Orchestral mockup video in Cubase Elements 8, here you can see every instrument I used and how I used it. If you like it subscribe for more. Enjoy! :) SoundCloud: / jura-puclin
It's really great to see in-depth what is going on a Cubase project in real-time. I'm starting out and I find this great, since I learn best by observing this kind of stuff (how the modulations work, how the tracks are layered on top of each other etc.) rather than some guy explaining two hours about all these features.
2:29 to 2:35 is absolutely stunning. I was literally playing that bit over and over with tears in my eyes. the orchestra going high mixed with the choir girl is amazing!!! beautiful song!
2:03 WOW Lawd have mercy!! I know exactly how you felt when you conceived this bad boy anthem, bet you didn't get an ounce of sleep that night. I salute you 👏 ❤
Thank you for this! I was trying to look for this. A song made with Cubase. Somebody had told me about Cubase, and I wanted to see what kind of music it produces. This is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
I really admire your talent Mr Jura. It's so amazing. I just finished scoring this project🤩. It is the hardest instrumental I have made thus far. But I'm glad I was able to finish. Thanks
Maybe it's just me, but when the strings go up high and is supposed to be the focus, it always feels a bit empty in the higher register for me. I'd have doubled most of the violin + viola sections, and in some cases where you did do it, i feel like it's still not enough (some wws might help). I mean, if you compare the texture @1:32 with 1:40, it feels a little awkward that the strings didn't progress the same way the rest of the music did. But fantastic job, and thank you for sharing this!
Really Outstanding! Could you tell me do you use any fader controller for expression maps or controlling dynamics? Also what you use for sound design, ambience, synth.
Very nice! I compose in cubase too and just finished a track where I focused on string arrangement and the choir. I'd be glad to receive some feedback :)
Awesome music! You got an extra like :D I've been using Musescore with a decent soundfont to create my music, but I want to go a step further. Do you think Cubase Elements 8 is a good start for a beginner? Thanks! :)
Sorry can’t open that file anymore because it was made with kontakt 5 sampler and I’m on Kontakt 6 now and it won’t load all of the kontakt instances again so i cant see what I was using but I can hear Hans Zimmer Percussion and Epic Dhol Ensemble. That’s 100%. It could be that I used only those two.
great work... can u plzz tell me ..how to record with a precount at any given cursor position without allowing the cursor to jump back to the beginning of the bar when u hit record... this is becoming so difficult to score music to the frame
Hey Team, I am just setting up my studio to do this... Is Cubase enough DAW? And I like a piano feel 88 key keyboard. Best source of modern sounds? I want both realistic instruments from around the world and crazy cool Synths. Does cubase come with all the modern sounds you need? Or please recommend sound sources? Thx for advice.
Hey,, cubase alone is not enough. It’s only for writting notes, playing and mixing. You would need kontakt 6, and then a few orchestral libraries in kontakt. And you use kontakt 6 inside of cubase. Cubase has some useful synths but I’d suggest checking out Omnisphere. Lots of great sounding patches to use if you’re still not good at making your own sounds.
Jura, I have a question please. How do you protect your compositions or work in general in YT? ... I am planning to grow my channel by uploading mock ups too but I am concerned about my own copyright. I am so excited to know your answer.
Melo Keyz You should check what “free royalty” in music license is. Every single penny you earn is based on the exposure that the music has in any video of RU-vid. So, you won’t get demonetized, and no one will, but every earning that they get using your music will go to your account
Good job man, that's absolutely fantastic! I do have a remark though; I see that you have a lot of midi tracks in your project, I suppose you used the VST instruments of Cubase for their sounds and not the sounds built-in an external midi keyboard (since you would have to record those ''external'' sounds via audio tracks), am i right???!!! And if so, is that because you don't have a good external midi keyboard, or is it because you just chose VST instruments of Cubase out of preference???!!!
Thank you! Yes I used VST instruments....I opened a program called kontakt 5(virtual salmpler) and there I have a few sample libraries which give me sounds..I chose to do it this way because everybody does it this way,:),..composers i mean.
Nice! And since VST instruments sounds are in Cubase already, you won't have to convert all thoses midi tracks in audio tracks for an eventual mixdown, right ? cause Cubase would automatically keep the sounds of your VST instruments in place right? Whereas if you were using sounds from an external midi keyboard, you would have have to convert midi tracks in audio tracks, right???!!!!
I agree. The A New Hope was the best classic episode. Then the prequels lost some of its epic spirit. And now, with subversive feminism, there's very little we can get a good story from
It kinda is..it has a limit of 64 midi tracks..other than that I don't have any problems with it..Here's the comparison www.steinberg.net/fileadmin/files/PRODUCTS/Cubase/Generation_7/Cubase_7/Downloads/Cubase_Comparison_Chart.pdf
No problem..If you're making just soundtracks, it's okay but if you plan on scoring films then you'll be missing one more feature, that helps with setting the tempo change so that the downbeat lands exactly when the video frame changes ...but if you don't plan on scoring to picture and you don't mind the 64 MIDI track limit you should be fine.
