    but when you say 'Greek', do you also think of your own country's folk music heritage...you know, Zorba-type music and that kind of thing?

    No. Ancient Greek music hasn't got much to do with current folk music.

    I'm searching for source cues for 2-3 instruments, eg. lyre, lute, flute etc. which would be heard in a house/villa..

    I started a similad thread at FSM.

    That Mime cue from MASADA someone suggested, fitted somewhat the bill.

    The Wicker Man (original) - another 'tis the season rewatch, although after the BBC comedy series The League Of Gentlemen it's impossible for me to take the majority of it seriously any more. Although the ending (ironically) still chills.  

    IIRC I didn't like the songs. Otherwise, I would have bought the UHD.

    Bus is sort of a track that you route multiple tracks to, so you can affect those tracks, and not others.

     

    so if you wanted to have reverb or something on just the strings and brass, but not the percussion, you could do that, without having to do it to every single track.

    Well, the thing I do is make a single audio with all the instruments from all the midi tracks, and put the reverb  there.

    I know it's probably the wrong way to do, but I don't know any better. :(

    What about WILD SALOMÉ by Jeff Beal, K? Listening to that now, all the tracks surrounding King Herod definitely have a Byzantine vibe.

    Ah, I'll listen to it, thanks.

    By the way, I got the job!! :) But, they sent me more of inspiration videos, and apart from some film music pieces from Prince of Egypt and Joseph King of Dreams, most are original byzantine hymns!:(

    I am still not sure how am I supposed to "convert" them to film music. This has not happened again to my knowledge.

    But I'm guessing a duduk or various other regional instruments won't do. It's that specific, zither-like instrument you're after, right?

    Well, It's not the instruments I'm after, it's the type of composition/style I'm after. And I don't know anything about byzantine music, although we had some courses in Musicology at the university.

     

    I thought of another example, and I sent it to them. It sounded like having a byzantine color to them:

     

    By the way, I just finished that El Greco album. That one had also some byzantine-like music, more than the examples that you posted above.

    But anyway, thanks for trying to help.

    Yeah, I've heard most of those but they feature mostly Arabian music I presume (maybe that's why I wrote something that evoked Egypt. Haha).

    I'll check that El Greco album. I don't remember it.

    Revell's CHILDREN OF DUNE

    You've mentioned this again.

    Do you mean Revell's DUNE, or Tyler's CHILDREN OF DUNE?
