Great educational video! In my opinion, VSL should continue with this type of clips with which they will provide a larger number of their - and not just theirs, well-educated users. In several last video clips VSL shows that Guy Bacos is the right choice in spreading the highest quality music sensibility. This impressive stylish music document talks about it. Maestro JW would be proud of this work. Well done!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm pleased you enjoyed the video and appreciate your support for more educational content like this. It's wonderful to hear such positive feedback, and I'm excited to continue sharing my passion for music with you all. Thanks again!
Excellent video, @Guy. I believe that I heard "ET-ish", "Star Wars-ish", "Indiana Jones-ish", and serveral other "John Williams-ish" passages and motifs in your illustrative composition. Not an easy feat in a brief tutorial. I *always* learn something valuable about VSL Library & Software articulation and MIDI control in VSL software & DAW mechanics from each in this series of videos that you have been creating and sharing lately. Thank you. ☮💟 Also, fwiw, the two orchestration books that you "scroll" at the beginning of your video are two of the very good ones that I like to have have handy in my personal library. They're both rather "dense for reading and digesting cover to cover", however I've also found them quite useful when treating them somewhat like "encyclopedic lookup reference books" as various specific needs arise. Now, they both are widely available as ebooks as well as paperbacks from major online book sellers. Consequently, searching the ebooks for specific topics of interest is so easy, as compared to using a paperback to first, "find the right chapter" in a Table of Contents or an Index section, and then scanning through paper pages to "find the right details" of interest.
Thank you so much, Jim, for your kind words and for taking the time to share your feedback! You're absolutely correct-John Williams' iconic soundtracks have been a huge influence on this illustrative composition. Capturing even a hint of his brilliance in a brief tutorial is a challenge, but I'm thrilled you picked up on those "ET-ish," "Star Wars-ish," and "Indiana Jones-ish" moments. Comments like yours make the effort of creating these tutorials worthwhile. Thanks again for your support and for watching-much appreciated! Best,
Thanks, Michael! That's an interesting question, and you nailed it with the keyword "convincing." The clearer your vision of how you want the passage to sound, combined with detailed notations or a sequencer recording that includes all the accents, dynamics, and nuances, the easier it will be to transition from piano to orchestra. For instance, if your piano sketch features a prominent accent, it will likely call for adding percussion in the orchestration.
Das ist ein sehr beeindruckendes Demo-Stück. Ich persönlich hätte ein wenig mehr Hall verwendet und Raum. Aber das ist ja Geschmackssache. Eine tolle Leistung!
Humble? OMG! I wish I could achieve that mastering level! Bravissimo. Thanks for sharing your knowledge maestro
Well done Guy!
Beautiful work, Guy!
I know I keep repeating myself, but Guy Bacos is a musical genius! : )
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm truly honored that you enjoy my music.

Wonderful! I would very much love a more detailed view of your orchestration techniques! I am loving the Synchron Prime Edition Flow.
Thank you!

Best,
I can't imagine how long it must have taken to make this video. Great job.

Exelent job Guy! Thanks for the video and full score!

Cracking job movie ready that is best wishes from UK 👍

Very great class! If it was so easy to come up with a convincing piano sketch in the first place... Any inspiring resources for that?
Thanks, Michael!

@@guybacos Guy, thank you for taking your time to answer my question! I'm flattered.

Thank you! Yes, finding just the right reverb can be a bit tricky at times.
