I can Buy it for very good Price actually, how is the Quality of the Samples? it worth?
This is amazing Nathan! I didn’t know most of this, so it has been a real eye opener. Thank you!
Hi 🙂 You might have noticed, that the Arrangermode has influence on what your pattern plays. Voice 2 only works with Arrangermodes that utilize exactly two notes (Like Lowest 2, Lowest + Octave, …). What it does is, that it allows you to write different melodic progressions for each of the two. Which of the two notes is the starting point for each voice can be seen on the left side of the editor, as there are no notenames, but something like "Lowest" or "Lower Middle" 🙂
OMG, you did NOT just put a Super Mario inflection on "pencil" at 11:26. I wouldn't have noticed if you didn't say "chelly" right before.
So helpful. Thankyou very much
Hello Nathan, I just got Opus because it was monthly payments (on sale). Wanting to learn orchestration and this and got Opus to hear what orchestrating sounds like. You break things down and it’s Exciting. Please get back. Thanks again.
Thanks Mr.Nathan
While playing the Opus Hollywood Orchestrator, some instruments continue to play to itself. It's like I'm pressing the keys. Where do you think there could be a mistake?
#vii?
Lol sry that's as far as I got so far.
This video will the invaluable to me since I just purchased HO today. It’s already saved for re-watching and now i want to thank you for making it!
My question is, why can't I get that realistic effect just using Philharmonik normally. Why does the orchestrator sound so much more realistic and full of "feeling"? What are they doing differently when they sequence?
Thank you Nathan, very informative video and saved a lot of frustration. One question though; DO I HAVE TO DRAW NOTES IN THE EDITOR OF ORCHESTRATOR BY PENCIL TOOL, OR CAN I PLAY THEM VIA MIDI KEYBOARD AS WELL?
Thanks
