        man ormix that flute lead sounds really good, what is it? I think this song would sound absolutely amazing with some better mixing tbh, I really like the composition in it but some of the samples are really muddy/crappy and it feels kinda toned down on the upper frequencies somehow

        ps im ssh hehu. I really need to start writing more riffs like this, they sound hella fucken badass lmao

          experimenting with making a "real" guitar-synth



          Several synths layered to get that sound, ironically one of them was slayer 2 heh

              Guitar rig is amazing, I need to get that again. Btw yeah the flute is from my motif rack es I got recently and I love it. Keep in mind those were sounds out of the box with no editing so with some work I think I can get some decent sounds. I really at this point need to work on making more interesting compositions but I keep hitting some sort of brick wall and getting frusterated (especially orchestral stuff).

                -shrugs- definitely some of the most complex music to write.

                I thought that your rock track was composed pretty well myself.

                  orchestral stuff is like 100% banks and automation. not really that difficult to write, but both tedious and annoying.

                    Well I'm sure there are some decent guitar vsts out there, but I was trying to see if I could pull off making a good one out of the stock instruments in Orion

                    tried to get Guitar rig working but I think since I'm using an outdated version of Orion it wasn't compatible. I cant for the life of me figure out how the standalone of guitar rig 5 works though, seems to lack some sort of piano roll or sequencer or anything that would actually play/record notes. But then again I haven't read the documentation on it yet so I might get around to that

                      Guitar Rig is just like an amp / external FX program that makes your already existing guitars much better (if done right of course) its not an actual vst that generates sound

                        Well that clears that up, I was under the impression that it was a synthesizer for some reason.

                        I don't know if I'd be willing to throw down 200 bucks for an Fx program though, even a fancy one.

                              as far as symphonic instruments go the sickest shit you can possibly get is probably symphobia 2, but if you want to be legit as fuck this library is seriously too expensive to be worth it. I don't actually own any of these, they cost far too fucken much. $375 for EWQLSO gold ($675 for platinum, $145 for silver), and $999 for Symphobia.

                                If you think that's expensive look at Vienna instruments rofl

                                but yeah I guess what I mean is my orchestral stuff just doesn't have the feel or dynamics let alone a solid composition to stand out... my formula at the moment is just make a song with as many layers as possible and label it orchestral x) but theres sooo much more I can do with time signatures, dynamic tempo, and instrumental characteristics that I simply haven't put enough time or effort to explore yet. but here is were I'm at currently, and yes I have a habit of adding drums that don't fit a style lmao
