    This composition is incredible. I love how it progresses into the dark chords in the middle and returns home at the end.

    Nice John Barry vibes in that piece. The Close Ribbons have always been my preferred choice over the Close mics in Sable as they just take a bit of the edge off the sound and make it more chocolatey.

    Great work Dan! I love the general tone achieved here, perhaps best described as a blend of 'Britishness' and 'Woody'.

  • @2infamouz475
    @2infamouz475 3 года назад

    Subtle but effective. It's def the extra 1% that separates ok tracks from exceptional. Can get lost being overly creative and turn it into 99% of the work to do that polish tho lol. Nuanced variation seems to be vital in achieving to break from that overly computer / synthetic sound and move closer toward organic sound that resemblez what most identify as musical. Little pitch changes and expression controls etc don't actually turn a piece into something identical to "traditional" instruments but are enough to trick our ears into believing. Minor fluctuations to add back the human imperfection - ie; humanization

  • @Murray_Browne

    I was hoping for some comment on the fluid tempo changes throughout the piece. Would be great to understand the reason and the technique.

  • @benedictnichols1539
    @benedictnichols1539 3 года назад

    Nice little track. Are you sending those mics to an additional reverb? Or is this just the sound of SSSP?

  • @matrix12x

    Dan, great idea with the EQ at 12KHz for the extra parts. I really like the idea of the compressor side chained a well.

    Awesome tips. Very young and very talented man. The composition is a little derivative of one of the main themes from “Lost”, which, in turn, is derivative of something else, I know... Not a complain.

    The "dynamic waves" feel unnatural. The volume swells sound like production habits to me rather than musically induced... "just use the modwheel more"

    Why don't you make SSO for those of us who continue to write in notation - ie: Sibelius, Finale etc rather than just busking a few colored lines on a screen ?

    • @caradaly1661
