Looking to get into orchestration, but I am quite clueless where to start I have all 3. I’ve completed zero hahah. But that’s my fault. These are highly recommended on vi-control and other very critical forums. All three are on sale for $30 each. Regular price $49 each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the first two volumes, and I've completed two recipes.... both of which sound like crap. Edited March 24, 2022 by husker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought the first volume. Interesting concept! But orchestration is really only intended to make a good song sound better. Keep trying! You might try to find an available MIDI score of a well known song. Load that into your DAW and play around with orchestration using that. Should remove the writing and arranging pressure, until you are ready to apply the technique to your own creations...

If I only bought things based on talent I’d be rich because I would only own free plugins and maybe invested all the money I’ve spent on plugins on apple and Tesla stock instead hahah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they are really good for (for me) is really teaching me how to use a specific library. OK, I have all this midi, I'll use 8Dio strings - this is how to make them sound correct. Now, I'll change to Cinematic Studio, this is what I have to do with CSS. Etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bapu Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I'm only 12% into Volume 1 so I'd better pick up Vol 3 before I get to Vol 2 🙂 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true, but the message I got from the author is that you don't actually need more libraries to sound good, just the knowledge of how to use what you already have! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same could be said for your car, wife/husband/partner, house and guitar. But not basses or plug-ins. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
