Hi all,After a computer failure, I could finally complete the second part of my trio for flute, viola and cello. Like the first part, it has a color in the title, but it also refers to a…Continue

Here is an older work in a new mix. The word "reflections" has a double meaning: mirror image and deep thoughts (here during the night). It's a philosophical septet for 2 violins, viola, cello,…Continue

Marche des Canoniers

Hi all,Again an older piece, but it's some kind of world premiere. This march was found in a booklet in the Flemish archives. It was composed by Georg Christoph Wagenseil, an 18th century composer, working at the court of the Austrian empress Maria Theresia. The march itself was totally unknown and presented only the melody line in handwriting. So a new arrangement had to be made. It was recorded live by De Kleine Compagnie for the Belgian National Broadcast Corporation.…See More

"Yes I use keyswitches in Reaper as you say Dane. I start with Sibelius and NotePerformer which helps me get orchestration ideas which I am now trying to refine with VSL. So pastels eh, you're giving away your secrets here, is there an app for…"

"A very fine piece, full of life and happiness. I feel the novelty created within the unusual scale. I think I have tried it myself once. It was a pleasure to listen, Jos. /Kjell"

"Hi jos, Yes, I work the other way round from you - I put the music together in the daw, leave it for a few weeks, review it and if satisfied pass it over to notation software which I regard as codes for other musicians to do whatever they choose to…"

Jos Wylin replied to Jos Wylin's discussion Trio for Flute, Viola and Cello, part II: Chasing Dorian Grey

"@ Ingo: Actually, I don't work the way you suggest. Like an old school composer, I always start with a detailed written score (in my notation program Notion or in the future Dorico). From there I report all the input to my DAW (Studio One Pro),…"

Ingo Lee replied to Jos Wylin's discussion Trio for Flute, Viola and Cello, part II: Chasing Dorian Grey

"So Jos if I understand correctly, you have a separate track on your DAW, (Reaper in my case) for each instrument or ensemble patch; and so each track has an instance of the VSL player with settings for that patch. And then do you also have an…"

Jos Wylin replied to Jos Wylin's discussion Trio for Flute, Viola and Cello, part II: Chasing Dorian Grey

"Hi Ingo, I forgot a couples of things which might be important: the choice of the best patches for an articulation (which is not always what the patches' name indicates) a good balance and panning (think of a live concert: even when you are…"

Jos Wylin replied to Jos Wylin's discussion Trio for Flute, Viola and Cello, part II: Chasing Dorian Grey

"Thanks, James. I really appreciate your comment! The toughest part of the realistic sound is always the 'longer' notes, the slow passages, the legatos and slurs. Short notes with distinct attacks are in fact pretty simple. That's why…"

It’s fastlane(Phil) from the defunct Garritan forum. I’m glad to see you on here. I became a member years ago but I haven’t been active for some time. The prodigal son returns I guess. :)
