Braveheart (1995) - Spitfire BBCSO

[Bernard Asselin]

I thought that may be of interest to share that here, since I made it mostly with Spitfire BBCSO PRO.

The mockup is half the end credits. I didn't have bagpipes, so I decided to record a quenacho flute instead. I think it fit well, but my lack of experience in both recording and playing this instrument may be apparent!

Flute sounds great to me! Expressive playing and suitably Celtic style and tone.

This is excellent. I really like your performance and what that flute adds to the mock up. What effects or processing did you use on the flute?

Thanks! At first, I cuted resonant frequencies to get a more pleasing sound. Then I added some EQ with Kramer HLS to add presence. I used the Cubase stock compressor and put ValhallaRoom at the end of the chain.

I just realize that I put a stereo Kramer HLS on a mono track! I don't know the consequences of it, but I presume it should be preferable in mono.
