Starise 889 Posted January 17, 2020 That's a nice setup there. I though it sounded like maybe Spitfire was in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
garybrun 624 Posted January 19, 2020 After listening to all the suggestions I have gone through the mix again. I think this is to sign of on now. Been a great exercise and thanks for all the comments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jesse Screed 363 Posted January 19, 2020 Yes, I remember the first time I heard/saw this, in a Ballanchine Documentary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rd1SDbQbHvM I think you nailed it Gary, tremendous effort. I wouldn't over think it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

garybrun 624 Posted January 19, 2020 Thanks for the comments guys. Next challenge is to make it so it doesn't sound live and closer. Great way of learning how to use reverb and delay 🙂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjornpdx 665 Posted January 19, 2020 Sounds really good on my headphones, Gary. Like you're in the audience and hearing the different sections from where they're placed in the orchestra. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

garybrun 624 Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) For those who have been following this thread... Here is an example of trying to create an orchestral composition with a studio recording feel without the live effects. EQ is still very hard to do!

Hidden Symmetry 1,008 Posted February 19, 2020 (edited) Hi Gary , great work here. The one thing for me is that I'm hearing too much vibrato on the violins, esp #1 ( left) for these quick passages. It's almost like an out of phase effect. One thing I would try is alternating more between different articulations; legato, marcato & shorts. (I haven't had my first cup of coffee yet so maybe it's my ears!) Still nicely done- really enjoyed it. Edited February 19, 2020 by Hidden Symmetry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still nicely done- really enjoyed it. Thanks for the listen and comments. Very helpful and I agree too. When I did this I wasnt thinking of how an orchestra is traditionally panned... was going to do it my way (messing around with tradition I know) I just used marcato on these samples... to be honest I only new what legato meant, 🙂 Its been a learning curve... and Im done with it now. Will try with the knowledge I have gained on another project later, Thanks Gary Edited February 19, 2020 by garybrun 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hidden Symmetry 1,008 Posted February 19, 2020 I know what you mean Gary. It's constant learning & discovery. As far as panning an orchestra nothing is written in stone although there are useful guidelines. I also sometimes find an imager useful, narrowing certain samples with a wide stage, isolating solo instruments or pushing sections towards the back of the stage. As for eqing orchestral instruments I usually start with simple HP-LP filters then listen for problematic frequencies (such as a 1-3 khz harshness strings etc..) Looking forward to you next projects! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
