Man, this track is fuc***g AWESOME, love your work!
Thanks for the review. Was never a fan of epic scores, but I've been following your channel a few months, and you're changing my mind
Thanks Daniel, loving this library and can't wait to get it!
Bravo Daniel! Absolutely amazing.
Wow thank you for making me feel good about my purchase! This track is nuts.
Hey Daniel I'm a huge fan and have been following you for years. In fact you're one of the composers who inspired me to go from playing classical piano to composing for film and games. Just wanted to say thank you for the amazing videos! Have you considering teaching a master class or music course, I would be very interested in signing up if you do!
Great work as always. It would be great if in the descriptions to your videos you put all the libraries that you used for the other parts.
Nice job man!! That choir is superb, I'm having trouble just installing the software.
Hey, nothing to do with the video but i had a question, do you buy all these libraries (several dozens of thousands of euros lol) or do manufacturers send them to you for review, and you get a free copy? That would be awesome.
This is sppp fookin epic pal
This is amazing :)
Hi. One question please. Can you get rid completly of the reverb to have a dry zero reverb sound? I see when you closed the other mics some reverb was still present. Thanks!
Thanks man for your videos
oh my god !! beatifull !
I'm looking for something like this. Any other recommendations than the Metropolis Ark series? I have the Komplete ultimate but I feel like it doesn't provide enough, lol.
Hey Daniel! Nice Track and Video :) Btw, where do you get these cinematic loops and rises from? Are they from a sample pack or self made?
what is the name of your mini midi controller? i want to buy one.
Great work as always. Hey Daniel, what program do you use to record your screen?
+Musicman61554 OBS
What is the name of the Sound FX at 01:55? Nice score!!
muito bom parabéns
i was wondering if i could get the midi file from this piece from you, Daniel. Its one of the most amazing things ever to me. would like to learn a bit from it. please, let me know.
Hey Daniel, first of all. I absolutely love your stuff and have looked to you for guidance on...... Everything. But recently I have been trying to score a movie a friend is doing. It's hard, it's like everyone else comes up with good stuff exept me. Besides that.... What synth and stuff like that did you use for the short track??? Which is amazing by the way!!! It would help to know a good synth like that one. thank you for your time.. Keep up the good work!!
+Josiah Guiles He uses the kontakt 5 sampler by native instruments. As for samples he uses variety of diffrent ones. I am not sure but here are my personal favorites that I reccomend: Heavyocity Damage(Drums,Timpani,Taiko, percussion in general), Albion,Loegria,Iceni(all things from Spitfire, they sound awesome), Cinestrings,Cinewinds,Cinebrass(My personal favorites, I dont like Cineperc just because of its hdd size), Heavyocity Gravity(for that modern sound in movies/games), 8Dio Requiem(Choir), Daniel James Project Alpha and Bravo(Hybrid type of sound, personal favorite).
Many thanks ! I got two question:
1) Do you think I can use Metropolis Ark 1 on my 8GB Ram computer by loading single patches as you're doing here?
2) Which mic are you using for recording your voice in the video? Sounds masterised and great like in the radio !
Do you know about Vir2's Acou6tics & Apollos guitar-sample-libary? Have you ever used them? When yes, are they worth the price or is there a better guitar-sample-libary out there?
Btw, this soundlibary is awesome!
I can't take away the reverb. Are the samples of the bows recorded with effect? Or can I take it off?
hey daniel, how do you record your audio from your daw in your streams. I can't do it. Thank you and keep up the good work :)
I imagine he uses something like voicemeeter banana
I have been playing music for several years, and want to start composing, but I am hitting some software road blocks. It would be really cool If you could do a software summary,(or somthing like that) and what the perpous of each pice of software is. I'm just having a littel trouble getting everything sorted out and actually composing anything in the computer. Thanks for the inspiration and sharing your knowledge.
+Quentin Steinke Not sure if you ever figured this out, but...
His DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) is Ableton Live. Other popular choices are Cubase, FL Studio, Pro Tools, ... (there's lots). Some have demos that you can try before you purchase it. They all have advantages and disadvantages.
A DAW is where you put everything together. Next is Kontakt. Kontakt is a sampler that is loaded in your DAW. The instrument libraries are called Virtual Studio Technology (VST) and these are purchased individually. For example, the VST he is reviewing is Metropolis Ark 1.
Basically, he opens Ableton Live, loads Kontakt, selects his VST, and starts recording with a keyboard (you don't need a keyboard, but it really helps). Then he chooses another VST, records, etc.
He also uses other plugins for reverb, etc. He has a bunch of tutorial videos that you can watch. Also check out the youtuber Epikus - he has some good introductory demos too.
+spacebran
Thanks! That clears a lot up.
@@QuentinSteinke I’m so curious, how’s your musical journey been? I know this is 5 years later, but I hope you were able to push through the learning curve with the software. Keep going! 🔥🔥🔥
do you do it for living or for fan ? just curios :)
How does the keyswitch thing work? I've never heard of this and it sounds interesting.
@Budget Musician Wow that sounds cool! Now I just need to figure out how to configure this.
Hi Daniel, what library did you used for percussion at 0:58? Thanks!!
Manuel Federici i have the same question.I wanna know please
@@user-id4sx9oi7l same here :D
Sounds like 8Dio's super taikos from their hybrid tools 3 library, but it could be the taikos from the ark 1.
Metropolis Ark 1 duh
@Bratislav Metulski 3:35 listen again
I love his cymbal swells. Is that included in Ark 1?
+TravisLake ^ That's what I want to know.
+Travis Lake I think they're from Albion One.
Hey Daniel, could you put the quality option back on in your live streams because it constantly buffers for me now whilst streaming it on source? Cheers.
+Dean Walsh I don't control that. Sometimes its there, sometimes it isn't. Not full sure what triggers it either!
THX for this great work :-)
Great but the composer is better, do you have the midi file of the first part? will be very helpful .......
Hi. Could you tell me what are the characteristics of your PC to reproduce all those sounds?
wow ...
To be honest I don't like string libraries lately, they seem so unreal, especially for staccato/spiccato.
I really TRIED almost everything (Metropolis Ark, Berlin Strings, Symphony Series/Essential etc.) but the best library I ever tried was Cinestrings2 so far.
Ultra sound
0:30 sounds like teejayx6
sounds like Hans Zimmer music
Inception chord proggresion i see 😄
i refuse to believe that you didnt have any musical training in theory and composition...you just figured it out all on your own.
wtf?
+dopemcee I studied 2 years to be a performing singer, part of the course was music theory. Composition was a small segment of the course but it was tailored to songs. Orchestral composition I learned myself.
+Daniel James learning orchestral composition from the internet/ youtube i take it?
+dopemcee You know, it's basically just chords and melodies. You have something in your head? Reproduce the chord using different orchestral instruments, low instruments for the low note of the chord, high instruments for the high note. And i WILL sound good, kboom.
there are people who can recreate songs perfectly by ear, actual orchestras. It is very amazing but it isnt something as obscure as people think if you develop the ear keenly you can obtain this. Hans zimmer willing limited his theoretical knowledge because it can be a constraint. you Learn composition and how to arrange music by just doing it the brain is smart enough. Will say however not everyone can do it but it isnt as nearly as impossible as people think.
Exactly, although I might add by doing it John williams style (no software all pen and paper) its damn hard! The thing is, an awesome ear is key. The rest is operational details as to "where and how I would put the notes on the composition"
