Pelzter 0 Posted May 12, 2003 Share Posted May 12, 2003 I created a seperate post to get everyone's attention... Jason's Breakout, how was that composer? Don't tell me it was all done on the computer, because that would be too good to be true...--Pelzter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesk 0 Posted May 12, 2003 Share Posted May 12, 2003 It was done in computer, using samples of real musicians, in numerous playing styles. It is not easy at all to get this quality.

Simon R. 10 Posted May 12, 2003 Share Posted May 12, 2003 Peltzer: Yep it was done on computers - 4 of them actually. 1 running the MIDI sequencer as well as some of the percussion. 3 others running GigaStudio with samples from various sample libraries including SAM Horns, SAM trombones, Dan Dean Brass Ensembles, Sonic Implants Symphonic Strings, Vienna Symphonic Library, Voices of the Apocalypse, G-Town percussion and Ultimate Orchestral Percussion. The synth parts were done using a Novation Supernova. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocelot 508 Posted May 12, 2003 Share Posted May 12, 2003 I need to hire someone to do my mock ups. I suck with that part of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morn 8 Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 And how much did all those cost you Simon? 10K? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,371 Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 Four pc's, that makes a lot of noise, right Simon? How do you deal with that? Do you have a special room where you stack them? Or are you surrounded by fan noise?----------------Alex Cremers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morn 8 Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 Maybe he just uses water cooling. There are many things you can do to make a computer quiet, but I'm sure it's easier to put them in a spare room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon R. 10 Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 Charles: Yeah SAM bones are amazing - the horns are mostly DDBE though... As for the noise.. I put all the GigaStudio PC's in the next room so I don't hear them, also they mostly use Seagate Barracuda IV harddrives which are really silent and gfx cards with passive coolers etc. As for the cost of this - I have no idea, but $10k wouldnt do it. It's been investments done over many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morn 8 Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 Hmm, do you use the midi sequencer PC for general tasks like web browsing and gaming then (ie, proper graphics card, not some slow passive one)? And did you neglect the CPU fan? Often the loudest part of the PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon R. 10 Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 Morn: I don't play many games - the only one installed here is Unreal Tournament. But yes I use the sequencer PC for that and other things too. I use Silent Viking for most of my PC's and that isnt too noisy. I have an MSI GF4 TI4400 as gfx card in the sequencer PC - a gfx card which has a really noisy fan, but I have added a Zalman Fanmate and turned down the rpm to the lowest possible and it's running without any problems.

Or Sonar for that matter? Just curious. I switch between Logic and Sonar myself. Sonar incorporates Acid loops so well it just makes life a whole lot easier when working with them. But nothing touches Logic''s intuitive notation editor in my opinion so i use that mostly when sketching out orchestral pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
