James Gall replied to James Gall's discussion East West Symphonic Orchestra Platinum Plus"ok Jos - I will try this - I just want to check - are you talking about Cubase?"
Raymond Kemp left a comment for James Gall"Well done James,
There will be no stopping you now.
Have you used Cubase to tweak your music? Although EWQLSO doesn't have legato samples, it can be camouflaged with the prudent use of continuous controllers in Cubase."

Movement (Ulysses), for very large orchestra - 2007/2010."Thanks for listening to my Piano Concerto Mark and for your incisive comments. It is truly amazing that in the world of CF individuals we live so close. We should perhaps catch up. Charles B R at Adel Uni has heard this work and I met with him…"
Raymond Kemp left a comment for James Gall"James,
I've replied by PM on the music player issue.
Reading above I see we are both of the same age and began composing at a similar time of life and for the same reason. My main weapon has been guitar rather than piano since my youth but our…"

James Gall replied to Mark Nicol's discussion Symphony in Indigo - 1st. Movement (Ulysses), for very large orchestra - 2007/2010."Like your work Mark.
I have been a member for around 3 months (approx.) and I have posted only 1 work - my first - Piano Concerto No1.
I think one of my movements was over 7MB - so this 7 MB - has this come in only recently.
Would appreciate any…"
James Gall replied to Chris Merritt's discussion Your Music is Still YOURS!"Chris
Just a quick question.
I am a new composer. I haven't been on the forum for over a month but I noticed today that the compositions I put onto "My Page' no longer appear at the top of my page where I put them. They are listed in…"
James Gall left a comment for James Gall"Thanks for your comments Dennis. No greater commentary can be given to a composer than his work "struck me quite deeply". This is, one would hope, the intention.
I'll be honest, and hope I dont disappoint you…"

Hi James,
I keep forgetting to switch skype on :) My teething troubles with my new pc have settled down a little so I have some time to address others and their questions. Audio Cards? how much do you want to spend because more buys you more. If I buy a new one it'll probably be RME.....why? Because the drivers are better than most meaning, less dropouts, latency etc.
Now that may not be something you have or will come across depending on the speed of your cpu and size of ram in hardware terms and the size of your template in software sample library terms. Without seeing or you listing the spec of the system you have, it is difficult to give an educated reference.

- No upgrade necessary for cc# use. In the key edit view the controller section at the bottom of the screen allows adjustment of say cc#11 (expression) where on say a ewqlso string phrase you may ramp the crossover of notes as to hide the release and attack of two adjoining notes to make them seem to have legato transition.
I'm regularly in the Coatbridge area and in fact regularly in many areas of Scotland. My day job has me also going to Northern Ireland from time to time and even to England :)
Home is in my music room having a view of the castle shown in one of my photos above.
Hint - it isn't Edinburgh and it also boasts a monument celebrating Mel Gibson :)

- I was dreading that reply as it is so easy to demonstrate cc# use together in the same room but so difficult remotely. If I create a demo project file in Cubase 6.5 it won't work on your studio 5. Possibly I could save something as a midi file where you can import it and see what cc#'s can do.

James,
I've replied by PM on the music player issue.
Reading above I see we are both of the same age and began composing at a similar time of life and for the same reason. My main weapon has been guitar rather than piano since my youth but our taste in composers match although I would include Morricone.
