Hey, Alex. I also own Nucleus, but I'm pretty new to trailer music. That "trio" (is that the correct term? maybe I misheard EDIT: Trills, thanks Alex) at 8:59, is there a tutorial on how to do that oscillation between the close notes you mention? The only way I could think of was to make short piano role notes, but that sounds choppy.
Great video as always Alex! One thing I noticed to help realism is to let the brass players breath - some of those brass lines went from start to finish with no break. I know the dynamics going to zero gives that impression of a break but somehow it doesn't feel the same as a gap for breathing.
Another tutorial, hecking EPIC. I've been using Composer cloud for a while and was looking to upgrade around Black Friday times. Any libraries you would recommend for someone looking to make film score?
If you don't have lots of libraries and need a full orchestra, definitely Nucleus. But I'd pair that with some Percussive libraries too like the ones in my list (in the description of the video)
Great tutorial! I've spent the whole weekend watching your tutorials. Quick question: If I'm buying my first library, which should I get? I'm split between Met Ark 1, Jaeger, and Nucleus. Which is the most bang for my buck, including percussion?
Like Franky said, it depends on what you want. If you want to do epic stuff then I suggest Jaeger and Met Ark 1. If you wanna do normal film scores and stuff, then definitely Nucleus for the price. I think for epic stuff go for Met Ark 1 rather than Jaeger simply because of the epicness...
Well, if you want to write complete orchestral pieces, ARK is not the best choice (only section patches for strings, no high WWs, only loud dynamics). I can really recommend Jaeger, but since Nucleus is more or less the same library (Brass & Strings are the same) with a bit less articulations (tho you get additional pizzicato for strings) and mic positions (only two mixes) but with more percussion (timps, idiophones), woodwinds, choir and the amazing soloists, it would probably be the best as a first library. It also does not require full Kontakt like Jaeger. But for only epic trailers, ARK is hard to beat as it definitely goes louder than Jaeger and Nucleus. But if you want orchestral percussion, Nucleus is the only option of the three. Hope I could help you a bit, I can really relate to the struggle of getting your first library, it was the same for me - and they are definitely all not cheap, but it will be worth it. :) Have a good one!
Type on Google vsttorrents , and look . There are all the vst pirated and free. I know it's wrong and stealing , but if you want to do it for fun, it's nice
I really like it Alex, however I have one critique. I felt the modulation and expression was not very convincing. I felt the brass especially dropped to a low volume when in real life it wouldn't. I think with a bit of massaging of the curves, it should sound even better 😁
Definitely! As said in the very first sentence: wrote this quickly, it's not perfect. There's many ways in which it can be improved, but on the whole it's still freaking cool if you ask me. Head to Daniel Beijbom's video if you want to hear an example that is orchestrated in a legendary way.
Hello. I'd like to get orchestral library to write game orchestral music like Monster Hunter’s(Do you know this game? This game's background music are very fantastic.Please try listening to them ). But I can't decide which to buy between Ark1 or 3. I want to make spectacular sounds, and I want to use powerful percussions like Taiko. My own library is only Kontakt Factory Library, and I’m a beginner to create orchestral music. Which one should I get? Or after I bought Ark1, should I buy some other instrument libraries? (I'm sorry for my poor English skills.)
Ark 3 is for very specific sounds that work well with film music and horror / tense orchestral music. For Monster Hunter stuff, I'd go with Audio Imperia Nucleus + 8Dio Epic Taiko / Epic Toms / Epic Dhols. Listen to the demos for each of those libraries

Yoo man, could you try to make a tutorial on "The Orchestra" Kontakt Library ? Have a good day !
This should be the fanfare for Alex Moukala Studios. LOL.

They're Trills*
It's an articulation that should be in the woodwinds patch
@@AlexMoukala thank you

very very good
You're a beast bro.
Great logo theme - gave me STARGATE vibes! Thanks for sharing and discussing it with us. :)
ALEX TUTORIAL TIME, HELL YEAA!!
That was fabulous. Thanks so much, Alex.
Amazing man! So cool
Please make a lot final fantasy and folk song but using strings vst
Hwy Alex how did you edit events for the tempo? I can't seem to figure it out. 2:03
It’s by pressing ALT + F4 on an instrument selected, and a tempo automation clip for the instrument will appear
this is the most comprehensive tutorial yet... awesome! 👍
Best tutorial ever
Curious. Is it necessary to have .825 after the main tempo?
Not really, it's like that just because I was automating it with the events editor and it's hard to hit .00 with that
Cool tutorial 🔥

Hell yass Alex!
hey Alex, thanks for the tutorial.
I don't find the percs to be bad when you soloed the track but I think it was too busy (too many notes) for the mix
Sir plz explain this tracks.. "Panning , Mixing & Mastering" plzzz....
9:00 trios tremolos on 3 note at same time?

Question: Metropolis Ark 1 & 2... or BBC Symphony Orchestra by Spitfire?
bbcso. it's more flexible 😊
how many years did it take you to make epic trailer music with the program?I will learn/try it!
almost 50k
Please make tutorial making orchestral music using stock plugins
Type on Google vsttorrents , and look . There are all the vst pirated and free. I know it's wrong and stealing , but if you want to do it for fun, it's nice
How much would you charge to make a custom one of these for me?
I really like it Alex, however I have one critique. I felt the modulation and expression was not very convincing. I felt the brass especially dropped to a low volume when in real life it wouldn't. I think with a bit of massaging of the curves, it should sound even better 😁
