The Project SAM Free Orchestras are absolutely building into a very versatile toolkit! Fracture Sounds Blueprint series and the Heavocity Foundations series (which sadly they seem to have neglected recently) are also great collections of free instruments. I also used the first release in Westwood's free Roots series in my entry into the Whispers of Lumina competition, the cello provided a really meaty low drone for the forest scenes! As you say Andreas, great times to be composing music!
Free Kontakt instruments have to be Kontakt Player compatible or they open in demo mode, making the sound stop completely after 30 minutes. You're not gonna find Kontakt Player compatible libraries outside of companies doing it because you have to pay Native Instruments to have your library be Player compatible.
I definitely know that ProjectSAMs Free Orchestras are working with the free Kontakt Player. Do you have issues with the "Odd Flutes"? I'll check this. I'm sure, together we'll find a suitable solution/alternative...
@@AndreasDormannMusic ProjectSAM works because it's Kontakt Player compatible. Free libraries made by regular users with the full version of Kontakt only work in the full version of Kontakt. I mean, They will open in Kontakt Player but in demo mode, meaning they only produce sound for 15 minutes.
@@BrunodeSouzaLinoYou are right. My suggestion for this piece: Go to www.pianobook.co.uk/ and find a flute sound that is compatible to DecentSampler (DS). You can download DS for free from here: www.decentsamples.com/product/decent-sampler-plugin/ I will use this plugin in my next episode.
1:07 That's how Germans, and most of us Europeans signal the number 3. Learn that to avoid getting killed like in Tarantino's movies
Thx for your live-saving hint, my friend! 😂 I remember this deadly scene... Maybe "How to survive as musician" could become another tutorial. 😉
@@AndreasDormannMusic True. Yup, that'd be cool. Well, they died but at least they enjoyed their beers.
This is brilliantly explained. I want to get into creative music and this is what I needed. Thank you. 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Fantastic guide, Andreas. Very nice ways for beginners to try some things out.
Thx, my friend!
Sounded really good
Thx!
Cool stuff, thanks for sharing. Waiting for the nexts episodes 👍
Thanks for watching! 👍
Nice one, short and sweet and to the point.
Glad you liked it!
Thank you.
You are welcome!
Amazing idea, that series really sounds interesting. Will watch it for sure
Thx, my friend & thx for this contest. Just in time for starting my series with the enchanting visuals by Marika!
Ja, lohnt sich reinzukieken.
@@blueeyedcat3443 Danke Dir!

Thx, David! I added your libraries to my list for this series. Maybe they‘ll make it into one of the next eposides…
Fantastisches Video!
Dankeschön! 😊
@@AndreasDormannMusic Immer gerne. Mach's gut.
Dream to compose for animation show like bluey
Well, stay tuned!
The only downside of this is that I can hear so clearly when Project Sam instruments are used. I mean the odd ones. Strings and horn are fine.
Thx for this point, Jens! Maybe it would be interesting to show, how to give them your own signature.
