People who do play paino well, they will easily know what they are doing, in which scale are they, ehh, i never realized how they memorize those things, but i did understood things about avoiding parallels, having voice leading near, or not in big intervals, inverting chords for better voice leading, always having bass line in positions before inverting those etc.
Saying this, you can see I remembered some basic theory about music and maybe orchestration, but things to think for formula about each scale and how to built chords in scales, i never felt need to learn. I am more refering to scale degrees when writting progression, knowing 5th should go back somewhere if not tension to leading tone which again needs to go back, usually to 1. ago I was learning a bunch of music theory, it was mixed in my head for a while, now if you ask me about theory, I will know a little, but it taught me to follow my ear, and like that I develop ideas.īut if you ask how many semitones away is third in minor or major chord, i will have no idea (or at least I would say, gimme a moment, ah major third is 4 semitones, and minor interval is semitone less than this) because in daw i just use chords and i draw them per ear taste, i use scale reference so i dont miss a key.
I know that Jaeger, MA4 are superb for epic as well as berlin inspire for softer classic type, but well, i would like to have separated things, and hopefully it wont be that hard to go big with CSS and CSB libraries.Īlso, for the orchestration, I bought some books and online courses, but as an hobbyist I do lack knowledge of notation, and I understand well when they speak on midi composition.Ģy. It limits me to be more creative and to learn more for myself. I do know that i can create things with libraries i have, but, i want to be more creative with split patches, as, all i got for now is not separated but high strings, low strings, high brass. Yeah, I do want to create Bergersen style of music, but also other types like music from Hobbit movies, mysterious music or lets just say, not Mozart but Hollywood music. PS: I know for Novo having that thing with padish sound, sound desdigner, but I would use it as strings, not as sound designer library. So, yeah, which is more for plug and play thing, and are there any other differences? I don't like if library will push me to move legatos miliseconds before, short miliseconds after etc.man this kills my wish to even produce music ever.Īlso, I know EQing needs to be done, but if I will need to eq first two instruments I put together, I would not like it. So, the question is, which combination will work out of the box, without playing many knobs, but just make template and orchestrate? Per sound I found both to be good to do any kind of orchestral music, from quiet to epic.įirst thing, I found Heavyocity more elegant sound, more lush, and somehow Cinematic Studio has that brush thing in their samples, they sound more sharp to ear, or its just me? Sorry if I am duplicating thread, but I found no similar topic for this.Īfter listening many and many demos, visiting many pages, my choice is up to these two combinations.
