I mean that often in rock music you'll have the guitars play open power chords continuously, like a pad, in the chorus. That will give you this noisy, distorted pad in the background with which to have your melody or hook over. Makes things sound big and nice. Anyways.. I thought of that with the Trailer Brass. Sounds similar to me
Thank you, Alexander! I'm actually using the CineSamples 12 horn very quietly in there as well, with the stereo channels flipped, so I guess It's a 21 horn ensamble at that point? Haha. But It's very low in the mix, just gave it a tiny bit more width. Strings are Cinematic Studio Strings. I have an embarrassing amount of string libraries, yet only ever use CSS... I always think that "this time I'm gonna use LASS! or Trailer Strings! or fill in the blank!".. but CSS just does it all...
Percussion is a bunch of stuff.. Audio Imperia Decimator Drums and Strikeforce is what I keep going to at the moment, but I throw in some Heavyocity, spitfire Perc + HZ perc, 8Dio Frame Drum Ensamble (absolutely fantastic to layer with anything) in most things I do. But to answer your question: Decimator, Frame Drum, Strike Force on this track. The FX are mostly layering stuff from Audio Imperia and Keep Forest. I find the Heavyocity hits and fx are SO recognizable it is becoming distracting. Heavyocity has become the "Wilhelm Scream" of trailer music... I love 'em though... :D
I usually agree. But I had just been listening to a lot of trailer tracks that get going real fast so I gave it a go
