Hi, can you cover different moods please as well, such as magical, scared/thriller, emotionally sad etc. Also it would be a great idea if you downloaded a virtual piano software, that way we can see which notes you are pressing /playing

Nice suggestions Lucy. Yeah, I'm planning on covering different genres for sure. As for the piano notes, my computer is getting to max capacity in terms of resources, but I'll maybe get one with that in the future!

Nice work Josh! I know nothing about music, but I enjoyed watching you work through the process. Keep it up!

Loved the video! Thank you for showing your creative process. I would love to know more about the process of coming up with the concept of the music itself.👏

Hey! Great video! I'm composing some video game music, and I think that this tutorial is really useful to me! Thanks for the video!

This composition has that 90's comedy kind of feel. It reminds me of the movie Quick Change with Bill Murray, Geena Davis, and Randy Quaid. Great tutorial. You helped me a lot. Thanks.

Great tutorial! I agree it'd be nice to know your reasoning behind key, chord, layering/patterning. Perhaps you could provide that via text overlay of the video, or in the comments section. That would allow you to keep the open space pacing of the process without too much chit-chat as you managed here. Great ideas for layering instruments and parts with short simple patterns. Love it. Would like to see you go through this process to show how to compose a comedy track TO PICTURE, as scoring to film adds quite a bit more complexity to the process of composing. But overall, great job. I totally enjoyed learning from you. Well produced, good quality, straightforward teaching, with good visuals. Loved being able to watch your fingers play in each part! Bravo.

Hello. Would you please shed some light on how you organize yourself, your studio, your computer, your external hard drive(s), your business and paperwork with regard to sync? I know that's probably a lot but, there are song sessions that are finished and some that are not! There is paperwork to keep track of. Libraries to keep track of and templates to keep track of - etc. How do you do it? What are your strategies for keeping track of all of this?

@SohnCompositions

Thank you for your questions and input. At some point in time, I'll be able to address some of these in future videos. You can also hit me up any time during my livestreams as that is usually more convenient for me to answer some of these types of questions.

Cool to see the progress of making a track and all, but you should explain the scale, chords, voicings, rhythms etc. You've chosen in my opinion.

gotcha. That is something I will look into doing more. In these type of videos,, I'd like to show the overview of the process with as little talking as possible... kind of like Bob Ross in "The Joy of Painting." Maybe in the future, I will have other videos where I can go more in depth on the music theory. Thanks for the feedback!

Where can I get pizzicato string vst

@SohnCompositions

3 жыл бұрын

Most orchestral sample libraries offer very good pizzicato strings, even stock libraries that come with your DAW. Logic, Cubase, Ableton, Fruityloops all come with pretty convincing pizzicatos. For an upgraded sound, there are a lot you can find out there including EWQL Symphonic Orchestra, Cinesamples Strings, Spitfire Symphonic strings or Spitfire Chamber Strings.
