bjornpdx Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Spanish Guitar I've always liked classical guitar music. I wrote a song a few years in a "Spanish" scale and here's another one. Thanks for listening/comments. -Bjorn NI Strummed Acoustic NI Picked Nylon Vir 2 Acou6tics u-he Zebra NI Session Strings Pro AAS Ultra Analog VA 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noynekker Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Bjorn . . . absolutely beautiful piece, just what I needed. You've certainly captured the alternating strum and plucking of a nylon guitar, and your orchestral arrangement really soars in the middle part. Enjoyed to the max ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB01 Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Nice job Bjorn - those strums would benefit from being more 'flamenco' in style (i.e. more staccato with a stronger attack) but incredibly difficult - if not impossible - to achieve with a guitar VST I would have thought. I wouldn't really know as I don't really use guitar VSTs. Nice expressive melody though and a nice balance across the mix - you did a great job and I enjoyed the listen. Andy P.s. If you like classical guitar stuff, you should check out Steve Hackett's classical albums - they really are quite exceptional. The following come to mind: Tribute Momentum A Midsummer Night's Dream Metamorpheus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjornpdx Posted February 16, 2023 Author Share Posted February 16, 2023 noynekker (Bruce?) Thank you. I wasn't sure if the orchestral part really fit so I appreciate your comment. Andy I can't get enough of that eerie mood a classical guitar song can generate. Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check it out. daryl Thank you. I'm glad you mentioned that intro part. Kind of simple but I worked on it for a long time. Nigel, Thank you. Appreciate the comment as always. -Bjorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry T. Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Well done ? you might consider maracas, castenets, claves, bongo or conga percussion elements to lend additional depth to the overall sound ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy j Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 You have been coming out with some very impressive pieces Bjorn! Everything fits together very well and you have captured that classical Spanish guitar feel. You make the VST sound great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
