Sometimes your night dreams can be dark and in black and white. But if you day dream the identical dream it may lighten up and be in full color.
Note that I have been working on this for some time now and I am way out of my comfort zone so please feel free to comment anyway you like. I am always open to suggestions.
BiaB Style = Chamber 1 Orchestra - Tempo = 70 BPM Note the string tracks were dissected and placed on separate tracks. Most all tracks were slightly modified.
2x Bass - Kontakt - Amadeus - basses Piano - Kontakt - Grand Rhapsody Piano Strings 1 - Kontakt - Amadeus - violins 1 Strings 1a - Kontakt - Amadeus - violins 2 Strings 2 - Kontakt - Amadeus - full string ensemble Strings 3 - Kontakt - Amadeus - violins 1
Tracks played with my wind controller French Horn - Kontakt - Amadeus - French Horn - Oboe - Kontakt - Amadeus - oboe ensemble Bassoon - Kontakt - Amadeus - Bassoon ensemble

Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

This is really lovely. I'm a huge John Barry fan and I'll happily slot this into my movie themes playlist alongside his. Dunno how long you've been working on this but it was well worth the wait.
I thought the full strings could use more reverb (you noted that you used "cathedral" reveb, but I do not get that sense from them...and that is what they should be...)

Really beautiful.
Thanx so much Mr_Songman. Thanx for the John Barry comment but I'm not where near his abilities.
I've been working on this for about a month.
I'm glad that you liked it.

Excellent.

Thanx Floyd. Actually I did have more reverb on the strings but I thought that it washed out to much of the articulations. I must have cut back to far on it though. Thanx for pointing that out.

Mario, The movement in the progression is impressive- you capture a sweep of emotions. I`m not qualified to comment on all the techniques you used here, except to say I enjoyed the soundscape!
First of all... the melody, the arrangement, the orchestration is wonderful.. I envy your talent for such fantastic compositions... I truly enjoyed listening.
With that said... I am not that convinced by the sounds of Amadeus... imagine this outstanding composition done with something like Nucleus... it would have been even more wonderful to listen to...
Thanks for sharing, Mario... your talent is amazing!

Approaching a classical piece... With a strange other worldly vibe.
Did you use only Biab & a DAW in the production... Or did you also use a notation software... I'm impressed but curious
Thanx Jim.
My workflow generally is play with a chord progression and style in BiaB then drag and drop that into my DAW. Once I get the backing tracks the way I want them I will then start to work on a lead. Very seldom do I use notation. BUT on this one I did print out the oboe lead line so I could 1-work the bassoon and French horn parts off of it and 2-so I could remember it for the string lead.
I like to take BiaB style tracks and either modify them and/or separate them like I did with the string backing tracks. I separated those tracks and brought them in and out during the song.

I am not familiar with Nucleus. Is that soundfont player one?

What a spectacular event this music is. It's grand, it's cinematic, it's stunning!
It's so easy to hear that you've spent mega-hours putting this together. At the moment, I am up to 2:40 on Soundcloud and the music I'm hearing reminds so much of Khachaturian's love them from Spartacus that you're sending shivers down my spine.
Oh, and if you want to have a listen to Spartacus, here's the clip. You'll find the section of which your work reminded me at 2:20 mins.
I hope that you and your family have a great 2020! Noel

Noel, thanx so much for this outstanding review. Thanx also for the Khachaturian's love them from Spartacus video. I really like some classical music.
I pray that you and your family and friends are safe.

I completely agree with those who say you should do music for movies ! This is so superbly ambient and delicate one cannot do but fall in love with or under this wonderful musical umbrella 1
Mario, am going to be absent for a month so take care of yourself and yours then we´ll exchange thoughts and music again !

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
