Re: [LAU] [Music] Symphony of love illusive

Hi Chris,
first of all, thanks for listening and commenting so nicely!

I did play the parts on a keyboard. I used the MIDI sequencer to
quantise (to a certain extent) or sometimes slow down the tempo so I
could play certain sections at all or more accurately.

Some samples were recorded with small swells, like the cor anglais.
Otherwise it was dynamic playing or building up the volume through the
different instruments. Layers with the hardware synth may have helped
occasionally with the strings and brass.

I didn't record any MIDI controls. I don't think the library is set up
to deal with those.

Thank you very much! Not that they run in Linux, but have you heard some
of the Spitfire libraries in action? I think the BBC core may run in
wine. It was - or maybe still is - free. Admittedly, usually their fully
fledged orchestral libraries cost hundreds of pounds, so a comparison is
not fair. :)

Best wishes and thanks again,

Jeanette
