Ross Smithe Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 (edited) Here's a new piece I just finished up. I treated myself to UVI Falcon at Christmas, and this kind of started off as a get acquainted project. I also recently downloaded a piano called Piano In 162, and the detail and quality is really fabulous! Also, made liberal use of the free Solaris shimmer reverb. I basically started this off with a very simple, kind of cyclical piano movement, and built everything up around that. All done in CbB.

treesha Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Very lovely intro. The piano sounds great. Nice movements into the different sections. Sounds emotional and passionate. I was getting a bit of overtones/resonances in the very highest notes (not sure what the right description would be), maybe just my system or my ears ha. Well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Treesha, really appreciate your listen and comment! Wasn't just your ears, there were definitely some overtones in some of those patches!

Amberwolf Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I liiike this one! I can hear some other things that could go on in it... (some vocalizations, a few other things I'm not sure of yet). Would you mind if I played around with it by recording the SC into my system and adding some bits? Not sure how I could get it to you afterward, but we could figure that out, if you're up for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could put it on there, and if you know about "forking", you can start a new project using that track and add your own parts and interpretation to it. Even the free account is fine for that. Also, you don't have to do any recording on the BandLab app. Once you fork it, you can download any tracks in the original project and then just do your adds in Cakewalk if you prefer.

Thanks--I do have a BL account but it won't let me login anymore--at some point they changed their system to require "continue with google", instead of just letting me login like I used to, so I can't use it anymore. (there's no error with my username or password, it is just insisting on an extra security that is completely unnecessary). If they ever fix that, then I can get on there to do this.
