I haven't heard this in ages. Insanely good how Elfman manages to fill over 2 minutes of music with just one 6 note motif without getting boring.
Beethoven would have been proud.
Ah, the true Batman theme. And beautifully rendered! :D
This is some incredible work. Spitfire need props too, the fact that you can do this at this level of realism on a laptop is extraordinary.
At the cost of 1000 usd and half a terabyte. This right here is a what wallet suicide looks like.
@@toddfrombethesda6963 lol at least spitfire has several sales on BBCSO throughout the year! :D
@@jeremydarrow3253 yeah but pro will still be a lot of money. Especially for those in Australia like me.
@@toddfrombethesda6963 Unless you need a million mic positions I’ve been quite happy with BBCSO CORE. Not as flexible, but gets you 80% of the way there at 1/20th the size. I tend to prefer Jake Jackson’s mic mix anyway, so it works out well for me without consuming all my hard drive space on esoteric mic mixes I’ll likely never use.
I was not watching the screen and this video started automatically. I was completely sure that it was the original score performed by an actual orchestra. I would have bet on that, until I saw the screen. I am SO impressed!!! Congrats, you are a talent!
Very nice! Particularly love your control of the dynamics in the softer sections.
I just can’t rap my head around how much better sounding pro is to core.
I’m working on a mock-up too! This sounds amazing. Really realistic.
Absolutely amazing! Just wow!!!!!
Very nice mockup , new subscriber :)
Beautiful. You are so talented. The 90s Batman animated series was the pinnacle of Batman.
Wow, so happy I stumbled upon this! Best Batman theme. And man BBC Symphony Orchestra sounds so good, can't wait to buy it.
You put a lot of work into this 💯 love it
That drop at 0:41 was enough for me to know that this remake is insaneee......I want your vid to reach to lakhs of peoplee ......Amazing jobbb❤❤❤❤
Now this is the Batman theme I really love. You did a fantastic job.
Awesome!!
Dude. So cool.
Fantastic work! The strings legato are so natural
Awesome work. Sounds so good.
Amazing mockup! Great work!
Holly bati midi mockup batman!!!!!!!!!! EXCELLENT!
Nice!
I can only say that you have achieved a realistic result in your mockup. The BBCSO is one of the best libraries along with the "Symphonic" series. You have even given a considerable dignity to the strings, which is where libraries tend to fail the most, especially, although this is not your case because you hardly notice that it is a sample. Congratulations George! I liked it a lot!
"Where does he get those wonderful toys?"
Excellent work George!
Subscribed just because this is beyond impressive.
Work of a genius
Φανταστικός! Έκανα sub γιατί ως αρχάριος θέλω να βλέπω/ακούω τέτοια αποτελέσματα, ειδικά από Έλληνες. Συγχαρητήρια!
Fantastic job !
WOW!
Wow! Very impressive man! Keep them coming!!
Wow! Well done! Great use of BBCSO, even the Brass!
It's gorgeous 😍
You are a great master!👍
One of my favourite movies of all time (80s child here!). Thanks for an awesome rendition of this piece :D
Now I will have to try and think of a score to do with my BBCSO Pro, as you really showed how the package can shine on a piece like this.
gots da chills! nice work!
Awsome Man ❤
This GOOD man! New subscriber
Awesomw work !!
George, revelation! Great sound!!! Congratulations 👍👍
Holy talent, Batman! 😮
Seriously brilliant work on this George !
Superb. Loved it entirely!!
Amazingly well done.
Breathtaking. Bravo!
Beautifully done 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Μπράβο τσακαλε.Πολυ καλός.Ακουω από το κινητό μου βέβαια,αλλά και ακουστικά να βάλω σαν προ θα ακούγεται και πάλι πιστευω.Ωραιος.
Great!
Nice work.
Sounds Fantastic!
Thank you
Gorge, Would you recommend the BBCSO library as a main workhorse library?
@@alontrigger it is a very difficult library to work with, but it has so many possibilities. Spitfire always offer great samples and the various mic signals are phenomenal. A great choice if you want a more orchestral sound. So many great great patches, beautiful strings and woodwinds, singing legatos and lots of articulation. For me, for its price it is definitely a great choice. Especially if you buy it with 40% offer discount. But again, it's on your taste. If you want something bigger, epic and cinematic sound , this library is not the appropriate.
@@GeorgeSoulas thanks so much for your reply. Are you happy with the Spitfire player?
@@alontrigger yes I love it !
This is quite impressive.
Great work. I find BBCSO not always sounding the best whenever I use it (part being I'm a clunky programmer and some samples just not sounding like I want them to). but you showed it at it's finest. Good on you.
τι έχεις κάνει εδώ ρε μπρο, πολύ προσεγμένο velocity μπράβο!
Great job!!
Your work is amazing!!!! This is the score that got me into composition!! I'd love it if you could share the midi file. I wan to see how my new samples libraries sound on this!
Yes please do share the midi. Happy to pay for it!
Wow great work.
Nailed it!! - Subbed!
Fantastic stuff!!
Duuuude, your stuff is so good! I myself am trying to learn composing and this is encouraging. Subscribed
Wow! This is great!! 🔥🔥
Good Job bro!
Grandios!
I just listened to this 4 times in a row, it sounds spectacular. Holy moly, George! 😊 Any chance you will be uploading new stuff soon? Would love to hear more mockups by you. Thanks for posting this!
nice good job !!
Are you using the Bernard Herrmann library? Bernard Herrmann's score for Journey to the centre of the earth was a big inspiration for Danny Elfman when scoring Batman 89 I think, in fact I think he used the melody heard in Sunrise for Batman's theme, just extended.
Hey lovely work! That's an epic effort to pull off. But be sure to hashtag your video with #oneorchestra which was created by Spitfire when they released the BBC SO product so others can find and hear your work!
Thanks for the advice !
Props to Danny Elfman.
I know people go on about how library doesn’t make the composer. But never state that the composer is what makes the library, and if the library isn’t up to sctratch, it hampers the composer. When truly talented people get there hands on a library like this, they create literal god tier art. When given say BBCSO discover, they are slapped in the face with limitation. I disagree with the sentiment that limitation helps creativity, that maybe true in sound design and synth work. Not when we are talking about orchestral sample libraries.
Mint
I need to got lessons from you.
I just finished my mockup couple days ago
This sounds awesome man! Did you buy a score or just hear the whole thing out?
Both. I have a score but not so accurate, so a big part of the mockup was made by ears. Watching orchestras playing this live also helped me a lot.
@@GeorgeSoulas That's my kind of theme song that should be played when I make my entrance as Batman I would love to hear this on MP3
Why does no one talk about the fact that the start of this theme sounds like Henry’s sad theme from Thomas the tank engine?
Hello George, did you do this mock up from a score or by ear? Sounds amazing!
It's amazing! This is the level of working I am aspiring to reach for now! Are you using just BBC symphony on cubase Pro pt are using some other vsts? Plus are you using anything other than automation to keep this pristine sound and prevent clipping! Great job! I'm sure Danny Elfman would be love this rendition!
Hi Ehtaab ! Yes, I only used BBCSO Pro on this mockup and then mixed it with Cubase 11 Pro stock plugins. I did a very light mix, but enough to prevent clipping.
Always so good! (Saw your 30 movie themes vid.). Who are you?! I’m Soulless. (ie, like a superhuman AI.)
Great! Wow! 👍Did You use an additional reverb?
WOW. How many years of practice does this requires?
Hello, great cover! I'd like to know what instruments you use from LABS? Thanks!
Wow! Great skill! I love that theme. Do you prefer BBCSO? Could you do this mock up using EWHO, Nucleus, or Ark1?
Well I don't have any of the libraries you mentioned. I really like BBCSO, it is very detailed and sounds amazing. In my opinion it doesn't matter which library you use, but how much time you give to get the sound you want. Also libraries like Ark1 are more cinematic, BBCSO is exclusively for those who want a more traditional orchestral sound.
@@GeorgeSoulas It’s cool, man, thanks!
why do you keep the white notes black?
which BBCSO are u using? Discover or professional? or something else
You can do all this with only BBC SO ? 🤔
This program crashes on startup all the time, any idea?
What you used spitfire labs?
So how did you do it? Played everything from the sheet? imported a midi? Or did you do it by ear?
Sheet and ears. I have a score but its not so accurate so a big part of the mockup was done by ear.
@@GeorgeSoulas thats nice, i did that too, i think its actually faster by ear (at least when you know what instruments are playing) but not as accurate. But really great work. I tjink esoecially brass is not that easy to get tight with spitfire especially
@@fabulousk9014 yes that's true. At least with BBCSO. But if you're searching for nice and tight short brass, Abbey Road One is a great option. Personally, It's my go-to library for short brass now.
Heyy is this the Professional or Core edition?
i am going to get BBCSO or Abbey Road One for christmas, but i cant decide.
i want to remake things like star wars, lord of the rings, and for sure my own stuff.
like i told you in an different comment on the Star Wars Theme video, im struggeling with brass and percussion, which lib would be better??? i already have nucleus, but nucleus brass is horrible, we better not talk about the percussion...
Im Afraid that the Core edition has too less patches, and that i cant change as many parameters i could change in the Pro version...
Who is calling again
Is this the Core or Pro version?
Its shocking that the VST is free.
it is not free xd 1000$ are free? i dont think so
@@talnomix3164 I got it mixed up with the other Spitfire BBC Symphony Orchestra
@@4D_242 there is a free version, bbcso discover, but this is the pro version
good but lacks that punchy attack.
Hello. can I ask you for the score of this composition? not midi
Is it possible to get Cubase Project file with a one-time donation instead of monthly?
You can get it from Patreon and then cancel your membership, you will not be charged next month. I can send you a personal message confirming your membership cancellation.
What daw is that?
Amazing! I'm the same user as you. I've always been worried about the sound of the brass. I can't feel the sound of the godmother at all. Do you happen to be able to help me? If you don't mind, can I get the project file your worked on? I want to experiment and check that you can make such an epic sound with bbcso!
Hi. I'm so glad you liked my mockup. Unfortunately I don't give my projects but I can give you a tip for bbcso brass. In order to get the epic brassy sound, I use the cuivre patches, lightly layered with the sfz patches to get the attack I need. I find this works pretty well especially with the horns. Also I play with the different mics to get a more ambient tone which is great for the brass, except the trumpet staccatos which I used the closer mics to make them sound tighter. As you can see in my video I intentionally show some mic balances that I found them work properly for the track. Hope I helped you as much as I could.
@@GeorgeSoulas Thank you and I understand. There's no other way but to layer the microphone's balances or patches. I'll give it a try. It's so weird to split the patch like that in the first place. I would appreciate it if you could at least tell me about mic balance mentioned at the end.
@@YeahBan nothing is weird if it sounds good. In the end, it's a sample library and has limitations as all the other out in the market. And they can't be perfect, there is no a perfect library.
With the mic balances, I like to start with the decatree and the outriggers as a base. Then I put the spot mics (close) for more presence, starting from 50%. Last, I add the ambient mics for more space, these mics will make the sound larger & epic, but balance them well to avoid the sound to get muddy. Sometimes I also use the mid mics to add some extra clarity. That's it. Nothing special.
SHOULD CHANGE THE TITLE FROM MIDI MOCK UP TO RECORDED AN ORCHESTRA!!!!!!
I’m batman
You used default mix?
No, I preferred to use the other mic signals for this project. The default mixes are really good though.
