Dug out my favorite lead synth, the Typhon with the fantastic cloud reverb. Also in this one the warm Micro Q for the wavetable pad. But most fun is my latest purchase, a Mono Lancet. Very special filter, not really coming to its right here (arpeggio) but to play with in isolation I guess. First time I try to record a live take of the Typhon lead with my semiweighted keys. Kind of sloppy but I guess I have to practice the timing better. Bass also the Typhon.
Over all I am satisfied with all parts, bits and pieces. Digitakt does the glitchy beat and the mid noisy loop is a couple of Mirage samples that I loaded and swept with an lfo very fast.

One of the arrangements of Bach's Prelude in C I did for the NatWest "We are what we do" advertising campaign.

The piano is a Yamaha U3 with the felt pedal on, with two mics right on the beaters. I performed the piano in whole takes. The atmospheres are a combination of guitars and a 1978 electric organ run through Omnisphere and combined with some synths.

A complete remake of John Barry's theme to Thunderball using virtual instruments with some pointers of what's happening in the music. Sounds used: Strings - Spitfire Audio Chamber Strings & Albion Woodwind - Spitfire Audio Symphonic Woodwinds Brass - Sample modelling The Trumpet, Cinebrass Core & Pro Percussion - Spitfire Audio Joby Burgess Percussion, Symphonic Sphere Harp Piano - Yamaha U3 mic'd with two condensors Sequencer - Cubase Processing - Waves Abbey Road Vinyl, EQ and compressors on each instrument group with various settings (all subtle). Then Goodhertz Vulf Compressor on the mix bus running as a parallel compressor. Again, set softly. The gradual build up of saturation gives it a vintagey sound, but without it being obvious. It also smudges the instruments together nicely and helps the overall mix. Reverbs - used a Past to Future EMT impulse (https://gumroad.com/pasttofuturesamples#) and sent the high strings and winds to it a reasonable amount. Kept the low strings and shorts away from it because it's too boomy. Put a high pass on the reverb channel itself so that it was an airy sound. Also setup a stock hall impulse and and fed things into that to varying degrees. The sample modelling trumpets had an additional reverb on them as the samples are bone dry so require that to start with and then you can build from there.
