Someone should give you a Noble Prize or something similar.. Not for all the amazing music you create (Which it is amazing!) but for being such an outstanding kind human being and sharing all this knowledge you give us on your channel! I don't know of anyone else in your position that does that. Your work is amazing and thank you for sharing your craft with your loyal fans...
Yes, I have a question, it would be very handy to see the details on how you do the routing on the surround busing, and also on how you send to front and rear effects. Thanks!
You are going down for being the greatest music teacher in the world.
Tom it is beyond amazing that you take time out of your schedule to do these tutorials. You really are an amazing composer/musician and wonderful resource. Thanks man - and can't wait for the expression map tutorial!!
You're my favorite subscription right now. Great stuff. I'm learning a lot.
Tom! Thank you so much for these videos. During the quarantine ive finally dived into your videos that have helped me to build and configure my own nuc master-slave rig. A more detailed overview into the routing chain of each instrument track coming from both external synths and VEP Pro would be most helpful and much appreciated. Forever truly grateful for your generosity. Cheers
Thanks Tom! Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences and great equipment.. always great information, I look forward to more!
I use the same mixer templates on my work, it really helps. Keep up the great work mr junkie!
17:08 "And yes, this reverb is stinking long and I'm proud of it!" 😆
Dank ju, Tom, it is fantastic to have such a detailed look at your mixer configurations, very inspiring, I think I am going to use VCAs much more, now!
Also, it would be interesting to see how you have setup your mobile rig (you mentioned about it in a previous episode), which certainly is much less powerful than your desktop system, as well as how to sync Cubase and ProTools, particularly which MIDI software you are using to achieve the connection between the two DAWs, cheers!
Thank You Tom this was amazing overview. I'm curious if balance dynamics and match reverbs of your orchestral and non-orchestral virtual instruments inside your template or do You leave it for mixing session at the very end ? You use huge amount of various libraries so you have to have that problem of having your instruments playing in different spaces different distances and different tail lengths. Thank You again for sharing all of this.
rewatching this!! thanks a lot jxl 🙏 😸 wonder if the click track was described before... need to rewatch a few more episodes.
Once again, can't thank you enough!
Hi love your videos!! Can you please make a tutorial on how you make you’re kontakt library’s from sample to the kontakt folder ?
Thanks for your great job here on youtube, it’s a pleasure come on your channel to “study” how to certe music.
I’ve a question for you: what advice could you give me to choose a good pair of speakers nearfield for a small home studio?
Hi and thank you very much for your videos... I would very interested to know how you stem out your work when you are done composing. Do you use your groups... how do you deliver the effects (rev, delays etc..). I’d love to pick your brain on this!! Again THANKS SO MUCH!!!! Mauro
Hey, I love the long reverb.
I would love to get a glimpse behind the scenes of the way you process the original samples of all your VST's. Colour me curious!
Tom,
What about showing the inputs into the Studio Live? I though you were going to talk about this. Do you route VST to the internal soundcard of the board?
I am also interested to know about buzzing noise coming out of the electrical outlets of your studio. I have a small home studio and find this crazy (I had to plug everything into the same breaker to minimize the buzz). I guess you have to have some sort of electrical filter at the source with your setup.
Thanks,
Is amazing the way you've organised everything!! Once again,thank you for these tutorials!!!
Great video, but I was really hoping to see how you treated the orchestral libraries effect-wise. I saw you had a lot of EQ plug-ins on the channels, like on the brass and strings (and probably woodwinds as well) and would love to know what you did to make them sound as you want them to sound.
Thanks Tom!
What a great guy! Thanks Tom! Does anybody know how to change the name of the mix console window(s)?
Thanks Tom! Is there still going to be a video on Expression Maps also?
What about the expression maps tutorial? I am so looking forward to that
Very informative.. Thank you.. again! subscribed ;p
Hey Junkie XL ! Thanks for the amazing tutorials! The template is amazing! do you think you could have some kind of "routing diagram" for a more visual understanding of the template? Let's say you take all your orchestral strings. Show how you create the track and then route them with send FX and then onto the mixer between Groups and VCA? I would personally understand better as a more "zoomed-out" visual aid
Expression Maps episode please! =)
Hi thanks for this amazing series. How does printing stems work with this setup. Do you just print each stem separately, or do you have a reverb for each stem eg Strings Verb, Brass verb etc. ?
Hello, your template includes a huge amount of active plugins (fx + instruments); could please show up your startup (new Template open) ASIO load. THX
Tom thanks for these videos. I saw the other video with you and Warren H. My only question is why did you dump Pro tools for Cubase? I Used to use Cakewalk then went Cubase now Reaper. This is not a fight over which is the king off all DAW'S.
Since the best DAW is the one that you can work on fluently.
Would you be able to offer any further advice on running plugins off a server computer through something like Vienna Pro Ensemble.
I am looking at the best way to offload RAM in order to work with larger templates.
I liked your previous videos on servers etc but just wondered if you had any more advice?
Hi Tom, I wanted to ask you if in the various groups (strings, Brass, drum, etc.) you insert eq and comp. If yes, which ones? thank you so much for everything.
How do you route audio from your VePro instances to Cubase for surround sound?
Cool, now I can reproduce all this on my free version of Ableton Live Lite.
Yeah. You just can’t render it.
i wonder... the mixer- icons it could be coloured out of the box? i am using cubase9pro
What do you route into the rear channels? A copy of the front, surrounds mics by Spitfire Audio...?
How do you manage Cubase session files between cues and once you receive the live recordings? I assume you use a different file for each cue, but what happens when you change some eq or fx settings on an instrument that you want to translate that change across all cues?
I have a question about routing short strings vs long strings and low strings vs high strings. Some instruments like ensemble patches or strings that use keyswitches to change articulations have both short and long strings, and both high and low strings in the same instrument. How do you route these kinds of instruments? Do you just bite the bullet and make an exception for the short/high strings group, or do you have some way of making sure that only short strings are ever routed to the 'short strings' bus etc?
[question] Tom, we hear about how great Cubase is (I also own it) but what are some things you don't like or features you wish it had? thx
Brilliant video Tom, once again. I'm really enjoying this series!
I've started building my own template and I am following the general structure of yours but with a FEW less instruments. I'm running a Macbook Pro with 16GB Ram and Logic Pro X so that is the main bottleneck I have. I'm actually surprised I can run a lot more tracks than I used to be able to, perhaps the software has gotten less buggy over the years. So this is encouraging.
I am interested to know what processing you do on your libraries, I'm guessing it's mainly Multiband compression and transient designing, to get more attack on shorts?
I've also started making my own Kontakt libraries with Rhodes Chroma sampled through MPC3000, perhaps I'll post some if people are interested. All thanks to your generous sharing of knowledge.
My question would be, if you could only have a small setup, how would you go about building that template yourself? Also would you recommend getting into batch processing of libraries? I'm a little daunted my this without guidance.
THANKS!
Tom, do you also use this template for writing electronic music?
The biggest question I have, is what is your process when creating all of these sample libraries. You have made so many of them I can't imagine how you did it all within your own lifespan! Surely you have some sort of secret that allows you to make your sample libraries really quickly.
@junkiexl Hi Tom I was thinking... for a quad speaker set up to save on cpu power would this work?.... if i want to have front and back reverbs for all my final grp stems could i say for example send instruments to a reverb channel which is panned to the front speakers and the create blank group channel and call that rear verb and just have a send going from the front verb channel to the blank rear channel which i would pan to the rear speakers only. does that make sense?
What Dell machine or display is the Star Trek-like touch panel on the desk?
Hi Tom How do you have the Studiolive mixer connected to your audio interface? is the apollo or the motu your main interface? cheers
Im wondering. How big is your template file. 500mb, 1GB?
Hi Tom.
Your Strings instrument tracks have Expression Maps, but in the mixer you have a separation to Long and Short Strings. I don't understand which track has to be routed to "Long" Group and which to "Short" because every track doesn't have a specific articulation now. Or maybe those tracks routed to somewhere else?
And tell me please, why don't Brass and Woodwinds routed to Long and Short subgroups?
Tom, thanks for sharing your experience. Your dedication is inspiring. Couple of questions though:
1. Do you print (export) your stems (just individual subgroups I guess?) from out of this same Cubase project file?
2. Do you print these stems with or without all inserts and sends, before handing it over to the music editor?
Thanks in advance and be well,
Jeff Hijlkema, The Netherlands.
Dear Tom ( and anyone who knows ) I still don't get how to set Arranger track ( music + video ) to make variations of parts in a cue AND AT THE SAME TIME playing the video clip in LINEAR so that it shouldn't jump according to the parts of the new Arrangement... For ex: I have a written cue for a clip, I divide it into A-E parts, then I want to try : E-B-C-A_D variation in the Arrangement window... but if I play this, the corresponding video clip playhead also jumps according to the parts, which makes it unusable....So I want the music to jump in E-B-C-A_D fashion, but the video should play independently in linear ( from A-E )..... Anyone knows a solution ? ( within Cubase - not from external syncing ) Many thanks !
@JunkieXL Hi Tom---- For your ask me anything VLOG..... I am also running Cubase 10.x and migrated from Digital Performer. I noticed in your tracks window that you had to mixing tracks. One being "2-mix" and the other being "4-mix". I also do surround summing mixes to send to the mixing engineer for the final dubbing. Can you explain the routing you do in order to record on both tracks? Should would save a lot of time for me too. Thanks. Great tutorials BTW>
I tried this:
2MIX and 4MIX Tracks Work in cubase (I'll explain the 2MIX)
Signal Flow
:
Your Mix >>> Group Track (Masterbus) >>> Send >>> FX Track (2MIX_MAGIC) no output routing...
Create Audio Track & call it 2MIX, set input as 2MIX_MAGIC and leave Output blank.
There you have your algorithm :D I'm was just so curious and did that routing inside of cubase virtually if that helps.
@@SalomonAbiassi Thx. I'll give that a shot. Appreciate it.
Tom, did you used any other DAW prior to Cubase? And if so, what, and why did you switch? Thanks!
Can you make a video about your main computer?
[question] Didn't see your VST rack setup in this season, Do you use only VST racks or Instruments or both? Trying to build my own template but running into the 64 VST Rack slot limitation now so I don't know what to do next... Maybe use Instrument tracks. I don't use the VEP and only plan to use 1 computer. My target goal is going to be around 128 Kontakt instances. thx
Another question: Am I wrong to think you have more than 16 midi instruments connected at all time? I guess they are connected to many interfaces (À la MOTU Midi Express). Can you show us this? And how do you cope with latency + running what appears to be super long MIDI and audio cables to the PC/Mixer?
How to make a track step by step ?
Mixing done by you is final mix or mix engineer do the final mix At dubbing stage ?
I know it’s a silly question but I got confused that why im asking
Sorry for this question
And thanks for your tutorials
What actually the process?
He'll mix the actual music tracks himself, the re-recording mixers will then mix his music into the film with the rest of the elements (dialogue, SFX etc)
callum donaldson ok now I understand
Thank you so much 😊
Wow. Lots of chat and not a single sound. That was work.
What are the benefits of having all your instruments, effects, etc preloaded into a massive template, as opposed to just creating a slimmed down version? Is it to save time? I'm just curious. I'm not a professional, so this template seems mind-boggling to me. Do you need any volunteers in your studio?
Hello Tom,
I’m Ameer Gado
Egyptian Music Composser.
Working as a professional film music composer and music producer.
And l have Ph.D in music Orchestration.
And for sure I’m one of your millions fan.
In the beginning, I’m so sorry for this long comment, but I would like to express my gratitude and admiration for your UA-cam channel .. it’s wonderful
Secondly, I would like to tell you how it useful and influential it is for me. And also Inspiring me.
I have a important question please maybe you can help me,
I have two Computers :-
1- MacBook Pro {i7 - with 16 GB Ram}
2- Desktop Computer ( Hackintosh) {i7 - with 32 GB Ram}
With two separated sound-card
I need to sync both of them ..and open my template between my computers
because my Orchestra template is too big and it’s not working good on one computer.
Note:-
1- The computers are connected together already by (MIDI cable Between sound Cards - and also connected with Lan Cable) .
2- I already synced them (one master- anther one Slave)
I need to know how to load some of My Libraries (on the slave computer) and recording at the other one (the master computer).
How can I do it please .. ??
Finally, I appreciate you so so much.
Keep going helping ✌🏻
And god bless you.
Regards,
Ameer
Wow that's a beautiful template! My PC would crumble to it's knees if I even had 10 percent of that setup and I have 128gb ram, SSD drives, and i9 Processor. I think I better go back to mixing school.
Stephen Mills make that computer the slave and you could perhaps have 1000 instruments. Blakus though does run a single pc like that with hundreds of instruments at once
Last?? Awe, shucks.
Spend more time on the music! Remember the Beatles used four tracks
Je bent de eerste Nederlander die engels praat (en dit soort filmpjes maakt) zonder overdreven Nederlands accent. Een online tutorial of workshop van een uur van iemand met zo'n accent is echt horror.
ha ha ha nice sidekick to all the "ooo the reverb is too long...oooo it´s not a good mixing room-freaks...funny you have the grammy...and the haters???? what do they have to show....?
I put first dislike 😂 Too much BLAH BLAH BLAH
