"deep sampled libraries" (basically loops you can chop up)
It sounds fine but is kind of a silly concept: mapped out loops of parts of melodies from public domain compositions.
Just waiting for some commercial / trailer to come out that is completely based around a Prokifiev or Brahms violin samples. And the track is entirely credited to some guy in his bedroom pounding out trailer beds based on loops.
Something like hiring a session musician to improvise on your song?if you use a sample library, you're just playing back recordings of what other musicians played
Ha ha...do you like it (in spite of the negatives?)Yet I bought this anyway

And then the one's that don't hang around here, who still write using a guitar, or piano..a dying breed I'm afraid, but thank god there's still a few around!There are three types of composers round here
FYI, this can't be tempo-synced to your DAW. The tempo is adjustable, but you can't set it to, say, 90 BPM.
There are three types of composers round here:
1. Those that spend their time recreating "mockups" of all your favourite film themes.
2. Those that like to write original suites of music, dreaming of that mega budget film where they can exercise this talent in all its glory.
3. Jobbing media composers, who get paid based on turning around zero deadline projects to a brief.
Oh that thing sitting on my hard drive not being used, apart from once to try out the phrases. Which I ALSO got for free on the deals...I got it as a "free" library with the 2016 25 Days Of Christmas, but have hardly tried to use it. I had a go with it a couple of days ago, but again it didn't really work in the piece I was working on. It probably works best if you try to write something around it in stead of using it within an existing musical context.
Yes, I am a non-person too. I have been making music with computers for over thirty years for the sheer love of it, and have chosen to make my living in the movie business in another way. The soundtracks I've written have been for my own movies or as favors for my friend's movies.Yeah, I noticed that as well. The adjustability of the tempo is rather limited though (as in half-tempo, double tempo). I guess for me that's actually the biggest limitation. Putting it in a different key is do-able with Melodyne, but getting it to play in time to your project tempo without audible artifacts is probably more of a drag.
Hmmm, I don't fit any of those….
