  1. Nice! I like the bells that accent the guitar during the opening verse (gives it a sparkly feel), and the overall diversity of instrumentation as the piece goes on.

    Give it some drums haha that's a great intro to start pushing a soundtrack forward.  Love the vibe

    Thanks - and that's a good idea; I might do another version adding other libs to the mix too.

    Very nice and crisp. What did you use for the screen video ?   mark

    Thanks Mark. I did it in HitFilm Pro - Humble Bundle ran a deal a few years ago where they offered it for a very low price. I've heard it crashes a bit for more complex videos, but I've not had any problems while doing my relatively trivial videos. There's a free version available, but I think you'll need to buy an addon pack for the spectrum analyser. I got the pic from Pexels.

  4. Very nice! I like how you keep introducing new elements throughout to keep things interesting, and also how you're occasionally using chromatic chords to give a more ethereal sound. In Cosmic Dust, something to try might be adding some delay to the occasional ear-candy parts to give an even more open/spacious sound. Nothing wrong with how it is now though.

  5. Thanks for listening everyone, and thanks 905133 for linking to the other thread.

    It brought up a few images for me (e.g., at first Christmas bells, then new growth in spring, etc.).

    Those images hadn't crossed my mind before, but I can see it too now you mention it - it's great how everyone can have different perspectives on the same piece of music!

    Antler love the anthropomorphic insects  in the background. Reminds me of my grandma's farm.

    Thanks David - to tell the truth, I'm not sure what they are exactly; I did think they made a nice texture though :)

  6. Hi all. I was playing about with a new Kontakt freebie to see what it could do, and came up with a quick tune. You might have already seen this as I posted it in the Deals forum, but thought I'd put it here too. Enjoy! (and as usual, comments/feedback welcome)

    I agree!  I'm still thinking about Modo Drum. Not sure what it would bring to the table since I have SD3 and EzDrumer2.  Do you have any toontracks drums? If so what would Modo Drum bring to the table?

    If you have a spare slot, by all means go for MODO Drum as it does sound quite nice. Just be aware that while the drums are modelled:

    • the cymbals are sampled so there is still a disk footprint.
    • you have a little control over how they are played and the tips of your sticks. However, unlike Pianoteq which is a modelled piano with an engine capable of rendering sounds from electric pianos to steel drums to glockenspiels, MODO drum does not offer anything other than sticks - no mallets, no brushes (yet?).

    Seriously though, that's a very nice quickie / demo you did.

    Thanks - glad you liked it.

    I'm not associated with any music related company, so this isn't an attempt at any kind of upsell, but if you're considering Full Kontakt at some point, it might be an idea to pick up a Player library that you can upgrade to Kontakt with. Libraries and Kontakt upgrades go on sale from time to time, and once you get full Kontakt a whole world of freebies gets opened up, e.g. I've picked up 32 free KLANG instruments so far; there's a free edition of DRONAR; and some online stores sometimes have time-limited offers of a free library with a minimum spend.

    Edit: and also what abacab said

  9. The power and presence of Japanese drums, recorded with a focus on authenticity and versatility. Kageyama Taikos shines in traditional music and epic orchestral works, but it’s equally at home wherever your imagination takes it: pop and rock, jazz fusion, tense underscores, and anywhere else you need expressive, nuanced performance. Featuring master percussionist Isaku Kageyama on eight distinct solo instruments.

    Full Kontakt required.

    Intro price: $79
