SO, I had to try editing and re-processing this video about 5 times before RUclips released its copyright claim and unblocked the video. To have this released, there's excerpts of me listening to the original piece that are missing--I likely will not be doing listens within the video in the future to avoid this, but instead am including a link to the reference piece in the description.
If you want to support this video, you can buy me a coffee in the description. Thank you all for your understanding!
That must have been very frustrating. I'm glad you persevered because this was a very instructive lesson!!! Thanks!
great pro-orchestration
You are a modern day maestro, I am learning so much from you & Mattia Chiappa. Thanks a ton!
The Cello and F-Horn lines are stunning - Really cool exercise, on one of my favorite pieces of score music of all time. I may have to try this myself soon!
Hisaishi Joe is magic. This is great choice too.
37:26 - really thought that was the beginning of The Final Countdown for a second... lol. In all seriousness though, great video, and very helpful for us novice and intermediate composers to see this process in action.
Really enjoying this. The piece is marvelous! You are a very good teacher. Suggestion: Maybe when you are doing the sketch you could quickly identify the chords you are using???
YES! I love when Japanese and Western styles mix.
Inspiring as ever! Joe Hisaishis style is so iconic and you nailed it!
That was so awesome! I love how you’ve mastered all your shortcuts.
Thank you!
Joe Hisaishi is one the best composer you totally nailed his style i would to see more in the future and if you can come back with some reaction video x) anyways enjoy your road trip you deserved it genius one x)))
Hey thanks JoJo 😁
I really recommend giving the Attack on Titan soundtrack a listen! I think the composer of the music, Hiroyuki Sawano, made some incredible pieces for it. I'd really love to see a breakdown of it! (if and when you're able of course :D)
Just pure awesomeness
This was super helpful!!! Thank you :)
Joe's music will always give me goosebumps
very instructive ! thank you Zach !
These live composing videos are awesome! How did the algorithm didn't show me earlier? Got a new sub, one pretty jealous of your template!!! (pls share your track delays for CS folks!) :) Keep it up, thanks so much.
Thank you! Considering making a course on everything CS mock-up related this year :)
@@ZachHeyde that would be sweet ! :)
Could you make a video lesson on Alexandre Desplat? Would love to learn about the process behind composing something in the style of The Shape of Water, Little Women, or his Wes Anderson stuff. In my book, you've got the best channel on RUclips right now :) Keep it up!!
I loved to see you loosing the breath on breath controller for strings ; ) NOw I know that i just buy this for woodwinds and brass, and choir
Very impressive... and lovely theme!
Good job!
great job as always Zach!
Great work Zach! I just started watching your videos after your interview with Ann-Kathrin Dern. I really like this one as we see you work at it and how you approach it.
I am wondering, what is your go-to chord arrangement for sketches? I mean here inversions, piano "voicing", etc. As my piano sketches never sound that good until I actually voice them for orchestra. Cheers!
So, is that thing that you hold with your mouth a midi sensor for breath controller?
Awesome! Just found your channel, such great stuff. I want to learn keys mostly as a composing tool. I play guitar and know basic music theory. The speed and fluency you seem to have improvising these harmonically interesting ideas and translating them from your head is amazing to me. Composing in the way you are doing it would be my end goal for learning keys. How would you suggest I approach learning if this is my goal? I can learn scales and chords and keys of course but just wondering about your take on this since you're obviously super good. THANK YOU!
Great video! What amount do your negative track delay for CSS legato? I know that the different note velocities trigger different legato speeds per note, with slow at -330ms, medium at -250ms and fast at 100ms.Or do you use the "Classic" legato patches?
I’m curious as well how you are making everything line up on grid with CSS. Would save me so much time.
Not at the studio at the moment, but I believe I have them switched to "standard" with a negative delay of -180... but mainly the speed is that I trigger a constant velocity when needed using a custom user transform in the piano roll. That keeps all notes to the proper delay value except for the first one, which I nudge right using a keystroke 👍🏻
Check out 5:30 on this video (and the whole video really) and I break down a few of these shortcuts:

Great video! Beautiful chimes, what lib is that? Greetz from Sweden!
Thank you! It's from Truestrike by ProjectSAM :)
Hey! What VST Instruments you've used ?
My gear list is in the description! 🙌
Hi Zach! Firstly, just want to say a huge thank you for your content, which has become an invaluable resource for me. You are absolutely brilliant at what you do! I hope you don't mind, but I have a question about articulation sets. I'm struggling to figure out how to configure them, because as far as I can see, only one parameter/keyswitch can be assigned per articulation. In the case of sus longs, marcatos, how can you configure it to ie. set longs + no legato, or marcato + legato. Same with shorts, can articulation sets enable staccato + staccatissimo (without using mod wheel). I hope this question makes sense!
Thanks Mojo! Check out the CSS manual and look for the MIDI CC values that control each--setting CC values for your articulation sets instead of keyswitches should at least solve your shorts issue. As for legatos, I don't use art switching/key switches for legatos, so not sure on that one!
@@ZachHeyde Thanks so much for taking the time out to reply! It's a new year and a new template... I think I'm likely over thinking it
So i see you changing the notes through the software at 28:30. Does this change the actual note value? Do you have to pay attention to the chords you're making when you adjust it?
It changes pitch--and yes, as you suggested, you have to be mindful of how those adjustments impact harmony :)
may i ask whats the value of delay on the strings ?
I didn´t know that princess mononoke composed music :O
😂
Newbie here- how are you getting that automation line on the bottom without drawing it all in?
Hey Jennifer, that's thanks to the breath controller and faders I'm using--they record different CC values like modulation and expression :) (They're linked in the description)
Hi zach, how can i set the key switches of CSS to a pad. My keyboard is only 5 octaves so i cant use the keyswitches originals but i have a pad in the keyboard with 8 keys
You'd have to be able to reassign the MIDI values on the pad to correspond with the CC values of the articulations (indicated in the manual) 👍🏻
So, what should I do if dont know how to play on piano(and I dont have it)? Any suggestions? 🙆
You can program midi by mouse, but it takes longer (to be fast with it is also a matter of practising though) or start learning piano, there are tons of free resources online and although it might be challenging, you can get there. One step at a time! I believe in you.
