Sounds good. Good information and education.

I love when he asks a musician, 'Who was in the room with you?'

Saw him at the Hollywood bowl in 2022. I was happy in that context but I really wanted to see him at a concert in Pittsburg because I wanted to hear some non-film filmworks. But that concert got canceled.

hey it's on my list

Her being excited has to do with Timothy Chalmet lol. Well, every generation has a heartthrob. And heaven help me if I pronounce his name wrong lol. But both my girls liked Zendaya on Disney. They're both teenagers and like seeing smart, young, (and snarky) female characters. Also, I think...

Ok Ok I got the courage to read it. It's more encouraging than the deadline articles in the last few days. I'm trusting God through this slowdown. Crap it's been longer than COVID for my gigs. But I'm hopeful as I see colleagues slowly go back to work. Regarding the article, I agree with...

I'm loving this setup. I like orchestration as well as playing. What software are you using for prepping your scores on the Surface Studio? Staffpad? Dorico? Note Performer?

DUDE I saw the article and am trying to avoid it. IATSE should be having a strike authorization vote in a few months. . . . My gig for Netflix has been pushed. . . again

CONGRATULATIONS

Yup Spotify has popped it up for me. It's a nice change even from his own work for Mr. Robot

ok bookmarked

Welcome. Sounds like you've started in a good direction

Time to throw the crap I'm working on away lol. I enjoyed the textures and clusters straight away!

Yup, I use them for my composition exercises

Rockin

Welcome

Welcome. . . Bob weave learn lol

AWESOME What form of input are you using for Dorico? Do you have your own samples hooked up or just Muse Score?

Wonderful

welcome

welcome

Enjoyed it. Have you completely let StaffPad? Using Dorico exclusively? Wasn't sure if you were using the free muse sounds in StaffPad

Thanks for the YouTube link. I've recommended The Baton podcasts that do a nontechnical but career-arching look at his output The Baton

https://www.music-map.com/ I cannot remember where I discovered this, but I use it at least once a month. Music Map is like a spiderweb. I'll usually google one or two names in a direction. If I like what I hear, I'll keep looking in that map's direction. I've found it fairly spot-on for my...

Welcome

But. . . I like counterpoint. . . .lol

lol I remember asking Paul Thompson of Spitfire to port more stuff over to StaffPad and he had some humorous response lol

CONGRATS!

Welcome

Booked marked all the previous responses. I always push ScoreClub. The Harmony counterpoint 1, counterpoint 2, and modal mastery classes have exercises. There's a mockup course but other then that, I don't think there's midi

easy. Don't do what I did lol. I'll DM you

Welcome. Lots of folks in the same boat here.

agreed

Welcome

Welcome

Amazing filmmaking. I knew it was about his life and not the music before I went in. Amazing use of music. *SPOILERS?* My wife, who played the Mahler 5 in her community orchestra realized, it was A CUE being used from the transition in the story from black and white to color and when the...

Oh just joking. I perceived you to be a big advocate for StaffPad. You were making big band arrangements if I recall in an old StaffPad thread? Anyhoo, Yeah if you do ever make a video of your process in Dorico, I'd be interested.

Helpful. If you ever make a video I'd be curious. you left staffpad *sniff

Oh I Get it. You're working completely away from the desktop. I thought you were routing audio from staff pad into another app on your ipad

Can you elaborate? Are you saying you're scoring in Staffpad IOS and outputting on Mac desktop?

The Keith Jarret one blew me away. Jarret had a stroke and can still play changes and improve with his other hand

Cool music. Which competition?

Rock on. I'd love to attend if I were in town

How do you like the action on this?

oooohhhh exercises

Welcome back

Scoreclub

ScoreClub.

Hmmmmm I say AI is far off for narrative stuff. I've done enough production gigs to know that a computer isn't going to replace a key grip or seamstress. . . yet. Now an animated feature . . . that's different and it's been happening with 3D modeling, rendering, and VFX. I think in some ways...

Whoa. Loved his onscreen talking voice and smart demos. I had it on my to-do list to download some of his reverbs. Condolences to his family and friends. Check ya later

1. good to see you back on VI. @Ashermusic 2. The song is good, sad, creepy, and makes me wonder what could've been.

Yeah I like the screen size but for the price. . . might as well have something that can be productive

I like it but at that price point, Something like the HP Envy Move has the same size and pen support and can run staffpad all on its own

Hmmmmm hadn't tried that feature yet

Maybe Q2 of 2024. My gig is on hiatus until after the strike

Yup. That's why I'm on these threads. when people at VI or FB start talking about something new; that's when I look lol

Hmmm about half the price of my suggestion and it is at an angle. I was thinking of The HP Envy as a multi-solution machine. Use it for staff pad, and other office things, and then as a mobile monitor for viewing films and presentations.

Ok OK, I'm resurrecting this thread but I put it into search and didn't see it. I know this has a touch screen but I wonder about pen input: HP Envy Move EDIT: Just got done with a video chat with HP customer support. The HP rep says it WILL have Stylus support. IMO this remains to be...

Time to get back to work. Yesterday, I saw an email from a showrunner from a gig I was on. Praying the tentative deal with the WGA gets signed.

Yes. I had the update BUT I hadn't opened staffpad in a while

Glad I'm subscribed to this thread or it take me a long time to find out.

Sorry had stuff to do. No I use it mainly for my recording projects

I just use to network with others. Maybe I don't know the main decision maker, but I can use the IMDB Pro feature 'connections' to see if I have had good contact with that person. Sometimes I'm very surprised.

Yeah I agree with you. Just like thier descktop equivalents; there's a little something in all of them. If you want certian artiulcations, it may be programmed into

Welcome

I like all the sample developers for Staffpad, though they may not compare as well to their desktop companions. There's going to be a compromise when you have files of such a low size. I agree about Berlin. It's usually my go-to. Then Spitfire Chamber Strings.

Ok so your post and @muratkayi 's post below had me do more exploring with auto-capture. Surface Pro 6 with 8 gigs of ram 1. At first I thought it only meant the grand piano staff as demonstrated BUT I tried an electric guitar and Berlin Flute 1 and it worked! 2. When I played a scale of...

I think it's rolling out. I found out like Y'all did. I saw the FB stuff, watched the videos, opened Staff Pad ; bingo bango bongo; it was there. I hadn't opened StaffPad in the last couple of weeks

I'm on the road so I'm limited to what I can test at the moment. From what I can tell so far, the auto-recognize feature ONLY recognizes the StaffPad Stock piano track. I experimented with other installed sample packs like the Berlin Piano or Wurlitzer but to no avail. I Don't have a midi...

I have it on my Surface Pro 6. The Piano capture is interesting. Not too bad

lol I just saw Oppenheimer with my wife yesterday. She commented on the sound design and music and how effective she thought it was. She's married to me so she better notice lol. But we talked about Interstellar and Inception and how dialogue, action, and soundtrack are used in Nolan films...

Well, my recording gig is shut down, AND now this. When I booked this Sony/Netflix gig back in March, I was told there will be a three-week hiatus. I've rarely had breaks on studio projects and usually a planned hiatus is short - less than five days or more when it's around a major holiday...

just came across your post. Maybe look for courses that offer writing for sections and chamber-sized groups? Love all the soundtracks in your post BTW. As a matter of fact, I pitched something a while back and the director was really into the sound of Midsommar.

Yup. When I saw the film I loved that. I also like the composer's work With Daniel Holloran.

Welcome

Looks interesting, but I'm missing demos from the link.

Just listened/watched the 'Out Now' with Oliver and Homme hosting. Seems like advertised; a tool kit It's up to you if you want this or the Orchestral Tools stuff, Keep Forest, etc The last few years I've been practicing just orchestration to build these kinds of sounds musically - before...

Bought Hollywood Harmony a while back. Ready for this

yup. Her score is on Spotify as well as her solo album

Wow I believe I have your first addition

Started watching it with my daughter

Since we're resurrecting. . . Bruce is active on FB

thanks for the link. The octatonic course has been on my radar for a while

Yeah. There's a new thinkpad to compete, BUT i think the Asus is bigger

Been noticing this after IFA this past week https://www.asus.com/us/Laptops/For-Home/Zenbook/Zenbook-17-Fold-OLED-UX9702/

yea this new interview didn't reveal too much. But nice to know things are still cookin'

I like him. I heard him reveal he was losing his hearing in a video. Glad he's still working

yeah it helps take the small nuggets and threads of ideas and develop them

welcome

oh forgive my ignorance as maybe we discussed this at VI Control before. I just find so few folks interested in marketing. What did you like about the Savvy Musician course? I think it's much more expensive than Indepreneur.

welcome

welcome

I bought a membership during the pandemic because they seemed to be on to using marketing well. Also, I got fed up with seeing all these other marketing programs for everything else EXCEPT music. I'll be honest, so much of their jargon is another language. But it sent me down a road of...

this sounds very much like Indepreneur methods

yup. I believe I went by the score so those dynamic markings are what you're hearing. I may have even lowered them some. Also, I went for cineperc because it has a lot of stuff in it.

hmmm I think I was doing 3m2. Haven't looked at the cue yet. Slowly studying the score

Yup. tried it again. maybe it's just the power of the Surface Pro I'm using. I get stutters and drop outs. OBS studio works well, I just have to take time and figure out the screen size and resolution

ok unmixed mp3 right out of Staffpad. Berlin Woodwinds, Cine Winds, Berlin Brass, Cine Brass, CinePerc, CineHarp, Berlin Piano, Vintage Keys, Scoring Synths, Berlin Stings, Cine Strings
