@@andriealinsangao613 thanks you! And point taken, thanks for the suggestion! 😊

@@sergigimenez8633 un placer, gracias a ti por el comentario! :)

Thanks a lot for the kind words, they truly mean a lot. And sure, those two libraries make up +90% of what I used in this arrangement! :)

@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic Would u fancy a collabo? If so how can I contact you?

@@mayeganfriends6678 I'm quite busy at the moment but sure, hit me up and let's see what we can do! alvarorodriguezfilmmusic@gmail.com

@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic Awesome.

Sure! I primarily use Logic Pro as my DAW, and for this, I used multiple libraries, with the main ones being Spitfire Symphony Orchestra and Bernard Herrmann Composer Toolkit. In terms of deciding who's playing the melody, I went for something with a timbre that stands out from the rest of the ensemble (in this case, flutes in the first example for that Henry Mancini sound, and an English horn in the second one). But realistically, the melody should be sung anyway-remember that these are song accompaniments. I'm not sure I understand your question about where I start. Could you elaborate a bit? :)

@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic do you start with thé Melody or with the rythmique section ? Then do you work on the strings, woodwinds brass or all of them simultaneiusly?

@@gijazz1757 Oh alright. First off, it's always melody plus harmony (only plain chord symbols). Once that's clear, I work out the actual arrangement, going through all the decisions I mention in the video (spread voicings, counter-melodies, who plays what, etc.). Finally, at the end, I polish everything up with the rhythmic trio and any other extras I want to include, like a harp, for instance. PS. so yeah, answering your question, when I work out the spreads I decide who plays what simultaneously.

Huge thanks!! :)

@@mthornit Huge thanks Marius! 🤗🙏

Glad to hear you found it useful! I actually tried to condense a full 4 months course from uni in a 6 min video here!

@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic I'd say you succeeded :D

@@QBellowMusic Thank you!!

I love that piece too, we both must be so simple then! ☺️

Thank you! Not sure if I still have it but if I find it absolutely! If you give me your email I can forward it to you no problem 🤘

Thanks a lot for your comment, it means a lot! 🙌

Glad to hear it was useful, and thanks a lot for the comment! 🙂

My pleasure, glad to hear it helps! 😊

Massive thanks!

Huge thanks for the kind words! 🙏

Thank you so much!!

thanks a lot mate, I really appreciate it! :)

Glad to hear you found it useful! 🙂

The beauty of video is that you can pause it at any given time and rewatch it as many times as you want! :)

Massive thanks!!

Massive thanks! :)

Thanks a lot!! :)

@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic I honestly love swing music. You did a very good arrangement. Have you heard about VHorns? They sound even more realistic, you should check them ruclips.net/video/uJ9rmauILK8/видео.html

@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic I honestly love swing music. Have you heard about VST VHorns by acousticsamples? You should definitely check them out, they sound very realistic. Search for "VHorns big band" here on RUclips.

Haven't had the chance to use them to be fair. Ive certainly listened to some demos and I don't see them having an edge over other libraries in terms of realism 🤷‍♀️ Having lots of settings can be a double-edged sword. If you are constantly making decisions all the time over everything, to me that library becomes unusable - in that the amount of time you'd have to spend to make it sound good would not be worth it (even if the result is very good). A good library is one that gets you 90% there very quickly and in a very straightforward manner 🤷‍♀️

Massive thanks for the support 🙏

Glad it was helpful! 🙏

Mil gracias Juan 🙏❤️

Hi, not really - not willingly at least ^^'

Huge thanks! 🙏🙏

Thank you!! I didn't do anything in particular really. When you crank up cc1 the vibrato gets quite intense on its own. Most of the heavy-lifting for me is going over it multiple times and find the exact automation curve that works best: maybe it's something as small as a couple more numbers or maybe bending the curve ever so slightly more. 🤗

Thanks a lot!! 🙏

Glad to hear that, Cheers! :)

Glad to hear it was helpful, cheers! 🙌

Thank you!

Muchas gracias!!

Huge thanks!!

Thanks! ❤️

Muchas gracias!!

Thank you! I used SCS and SsoloStrings!

Huge thanks Frank! 🙏❤️

Thank you! I used Swimg, Swing more and sample modelling the trumpet and trombone!

@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic Congratulations!

Thanks a lot!

@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic thank you, for sharing🙏

Thanks a lot! 🙏🙏

Thank you, that opening is so common at orchestra's auditions. Really hard to make it sound clean indeed but so beautiful!

I wish haha, cheers!

Thanks a lot my friend! 🙏❤️ The film is about to get started touring round the festival circuit so it won't be available until it finishes 🙏

@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic awesome! Please let me know when it’s available! 🙏🏻

@@VHC90 I surely will 🙏❤️

Thanks I'll make sure to include that in the next one! But there's no secrets really. cc1, cc11, vibrato, attack and legato transitions are all the variables I use. And I literally play it by ear to decide what to use and how to use it.

Hi there! To me Logic always comes first. I only bother with notation software if I need sheet music for something (like a performance or a recording session). And in that case I would always go from Logic to Sibelius and not the other way around. Cheers!

Thanks for the input! Will try that with my big band music! 😀

Thanks a lot! 🤗

Thanks a lot, more of them in the on the way! 🙌🙌

Thank you! :)

Thank you! I'm not sure I understand your question. I talk about it here 8:19

@@alvarorodriguezfilmmusicdid your input method: keyboard or some other controller? or just added notes one-and-one in the pianoscroll editor?

@@matswessling6600 oh alright! I basically pllayed it in with a MIDI controller (only once the piano part was fully finished though).
