Hi,
I installed a SSD 500 gb and 16 gb of ram in my early 2011 13 inch macbook pro and it was like getting a new computer . Recommended!Personally I dont use any 32-bit plugins, but I’ve heard others have had success with 32 Lives.
When it comes to creating orchestral music with sample libraries, a part of me says “why bother?”
Part of me, the lazy part, agree with this😉

If Garðabær was the only thing you saw then, yes, you should come back :),,, not exactly a scenic place, I live in the next town to it.I just stayed and worked in Gardabær, but got to see Reykjavik and had some guided tours in the surroundings in addition to the gas station at Gardabær.
Its definitely subjective this whole thing with realism in music composed with sample libraries, so I wouldn’t take my word for it:-)
And it seems you have the right tools for the job, judging by your libraries. I’m listening to your tracks again as a write this, and its the arco strings that give it away for me. But as you are doing a much better job at this than me, I can’t give any suggestions how to improve it:-)
Can I ask what piano you are using? Sounds really good.Off topic: I visited Gardabaer 2 years ago, and I have to say Iceland is a beautiful place. Would love to go back.
Hi Stein,
very nice music! I’m a beginner in the library world myself so you have to decide yourself how much my opinion weights.
After one listen I think the solo piano tracks are great, both composition and production. The orchestral tracks on the other hand is still good compositions, but to me it sounds too artificial. Especially the strings sounds “midi”. What samplelibraries are you using? I think you would have an even better chance to get into the right libraries if you could improve the sound and production of your orchestral music. That is a feedback I’ve had from libraries on some of my own tracks, so I don’t submit orchestral tracks anymore except when I’m sure the sound is on the right level.
Again, this is the opinion of a beginner in this game, but I hope it can be of some help anyway. 🙂
And I’m still looking for the right place to submit my cinematic stuff myself, but will let you know if I find it.Very nice music in all the links posted. I find the compositions and productions in general very impressive, especially considered how many tracks many of you propably writes in a year.
Here are some of my music:Hi,
listening on headphones the music sounds well produced. I’m no fan of this type of music myself but I guess you’re going to have some sales of these tracks on AJ. One thing that stood out to me was the electric guitar that didn’t sound convincing, but I’m a guitarist so maybe it’s just me…:-)
Thanks for sharing!
