INSERT GIF OF FRODO SAYING "IT'S DONE" AFTER DESTROYING THE ONE RING
I'm happier with it than what I expected tbh. This and Lone Wolf are some of those tracks that I like so much I don't wanna touch em, but bills need to be paid and it was a nice challenge in all aspects. I feel like I learned a lot about orchestral programming with this one and that there's a clear difference between the before and after, even if it's mainly long sustained notes that also has it's own science to make it sound convincing and not so artificial.
Another issue I'm not sure I've discussed before is the different spaces sample libraries are recorded which can cause a lot of other issues with layering and mixing. Everything (except from the cinematic studio series which include strings, brass and the newly released woodwinds) is from different developers so it does get quite annoying at times but I think I managed to create the most cohesive template so far.
I also had toarrange and mix the percussion in a completely different project because of how big the project was.
Now you may think "Jafet this sounds just as good as your other stuff what the fuck are you talking about" so let's revisit my first arrangement of winter contingency from 2012 so you can see how much it changed and what ideas I was able to rescue from it.
I'll try to dive more into the specific of what goes behind the scenes soon and I'll show ya some examples of the layering stuff I talked in this post.
I'm not sure of when this will be released.
