Cool! Why are people reminded of John Williams? Is it the only reference they know. First part could be Miklos Rozsa, others Prokofiev... no, it's none of these, it's Antonio Eggert. Very good! 👍
Very nice. I'm impressed. The ending came as a bit of a surprise - almost as if the file had been arbitarily chopped. My ears were expecting more. Thanks for posting. I enjoyed this.
Hey, this sounds nice! How did you get this MIDI interface to record? It looks nice (my DAW is FL studio, so I was wondering how to achieve the same effect there.
Is this the out of the box mix? Incredible work here but something just doesn't hit quite right in that opening brass bit. We're getting some phasing that shouldn't be there, like I'd expect to hear if I accidentally enabled 2 of the same instrument around the same range. Layering brass in the same range can be dangerous, or the sampled sections just aren't great out of the box. Also sounds like it should be an FF/FFF section, but the samples just can't do that. Might look into some free/cheap options to get more dynamics out of the brass. The Free Orchestra by Project Sam has a nice epic brass patch, or perhaps the Brass Patch from Orchestral Tools Berlin Inspire. The Orchestral Tools Majestic Horn could also be layered in on the cheap if the sections just won't blend right.
Unfortunately BBCSO Brass doesn‘t convince as other libraries do. I tried to layer both naturale and muted instruments to achieve a better result but as you said something isn‘t quite right. For mic positions I used Tree and Ambient… maybe that‘s causing the phasing too. Nevertheless the goal was to only use this library.
