Hi The kind members of the biab club.

I put a musical landscape on the wolf. This particularly endearing animal has a very developed social life. To achieve this instrumental music, I have been looking for wave sounds of the howling of the wolf.
used tools
Vst Biab for the continuation of agreements.
I started with a midi track piano that I modified and on which I put an IIyamov guitar. I changed the fingering in the pianoroll. Then I added strings playing in different octaves but modeled on the midi file of the piano. By isolating certain lines of the chords, I introduced backing vocals and the flute. To top it off, I added waves sounds from my personal bank. If you have the time or the inclination, please let me know if you liked it or not. See you on your compositions. Thank you.

Derochette,

Love your arrangement and the palette of sounds presented here! The score builds in a beautiful way with a very nice mix! Some of those string sounds are incredibly good! Thanks, Torrey

Hi Derochette,

That is a nice piece of work you made about the lonely gentle wolf.
I liked how you managed to make the background vocals sounding more and more like the howling of that wolf.
Only somewhere at the end it was a bit overdone on this effect. But that is a minor thing.

The composition was very interesting and the melody turned out to be very intriguing and picturesque.
Even without words you can imagine a lot. Though the howling also pointed the direction of one's imagination ;-)
It was nice to read how you did all this with the midi. The (IIyamov) guitar was very bright and gave a lovely sound to what originally was meant for a piano (if you can say that with midi).

I enjoyed your song a lot!

Derochette,

Another wonderful listening experience. Beautiful!

A very clever idea to use a piano track as the starting point for the nylon guitar. And that nylon guitar has a great tone.

Strings are nicely done. The piece builds well.

And an excellent mix.

A great listen.

Hi Birchwood,

Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I started this soundscape music a year ago and I finalized it in the last few days. At the time, I tested several midi lines in different old biab midi styles (very well done and often forgotten by club members) through the biab vst. I will try to find them and mention them to you in a future post. I will be careful next time to mention where I puncture the midi lines used. Thank you for your comment.

Hi Scott,

I am always happy to read you. Very different from my previous composition, this composition is mainly based on a vst guitar put on a mix of midi piano lines taken in different old Biab midi styles.

This Vst is IIyamov nylon which is not expensive (but wait promotions at - 50%) and which is one of the best on the market. You should know that this vst only runs on kontakt (full version) of native instrument. Thank you again to you for following me and for encouraging me.

Very impressive work!

Interesting usage of the nylon guitar based on a piano track. I really liked that nylon guitar's sound.

Outstanding composition and mix.

This is a winner!

What a beautiful wolf you've painted with this musicscape, Derochette. You show the pride and strength in the animal. There is so much interesting little musical weavings in this tapestry. Always enjoyable to listen to while seeing your musical pictures through closed eyes.


Enjoy whatever happens!
