I really enjoyed this. The noise track is a great idea. I would like to see more of these, they could be more score oriented for my taste. Awesome libraries by the way!

I've never seen anyone work with virtual instruments in Pro Tools 0_O

[@ipoponq]

Exactly! Because it's a pain in the ass!

[@Skyleofr]

Thank you very much for the breakdown, this is an amazing sounding demo track!

[@toinzxoxo4309]

Awsome. I love to use orchestral sounds in music. Good video to study ideas

[@edgenovese]

A must watch, I don't use pro tools but as a composer I really enjoyed your down to earth explanation and demo of how you made your choices. Great Music and very helpful tutorial . Bravo

Great composition and overview! Really love what you're doing here with these types of libraries - a real niche that needs filling.

Cool vid, I think you made a better demo for these 3rd party libraries than the library makers have.

[@stelioslioste1108]

That's great work! I was curious about the tempo mapping you have done. Would it be possible to explain the process?

[@authenticsoundware]

Sure, I’ll try and cover that in a future video. But essentially I just tried to put in some moments where the music naturally slows down and then returns a tempo. I also made one dramatic tempo change after the intro. The intro is faster to “wake you up” so to speak, and then the tempo settles down when the vocal comes in.

@@authenticsoundware Thanks!

See, you can do an orchestral mockup in Pro Tools.
