Jonny Walker replied to Harry Lightfoot's discussion My latest epic film track in the group TV and Film Composers"I love your use of brass and strings. Not overly keen on the use of piano. Overall, it's a very nice track with a great atmosphere.
8/10"
Jonny Walker replied to Anders Christensen's discussion Soundtrack for a Pirate movie - Captain Blackbeard"This is a nice track. Though it sounds a little held back, during the big parts, especially at 1:50 - 2:00. I'm thinking it needs more bass and perhaps more percussion to give the strings more punch, in key parts."

- Hi Jonny,
Ofcourse first you have to choose the correct samples. The EWSO Gold string section gives you choices solo violin, 4x violin, 11x and 18 x. Also there is a large string section of I think 50 and 70 where all strings, bass, cello, viola and violins are layered. I personally don't like those large string sections. It better to create them yourself and that the answer to your question. It helps to have violins double a part on two different octaves and one 2nd voice part. So three parts actually. Then accompany those those parts with one viola part and two cello parts and a bass part. Doing this with solo samples will already give you a fuller sound. Then experiment with changing to 11 or 18 violin samples and the same for the viola, cello and bass.
A nice thin reverb such as altiverb will give a nice finish to the fullness of sound.
hope it helps good luck!

- O pardon, I think the chimes were from Stormdrum, not RA, the flute was
from RA. Yeah so either Stormdrum or EWSO gold percussion section.
Yeah, been spending thousands on these packages. But defenitely worth it.

- Hi Jonny,
thanks for that. I'm using protools with east west samples. The chimes come from the RA bundle.
cheers
