RE: 'In the Lab' - New Original Music - Testing Out New Spitfire Audio LABS Strings! Orchestral/Instrumental + Walkthrough!
Nice song dude, it has many potential, I could imagine myself watching a mysterious and scary scene in some film. I encourage you to keep working on it!
Keep in mind, there is no mixing/mastering done, so volume levels are a bit offI believe there is not much mixing to do with orchestral instruments as they often already work well together? Idk I'm not very familiar with that style tho. But yeah you might want to reajust the volume of some elements as you said, as well as adding some elements. For instance, I feel like the toms could have some more punch by having different layer of toms for example. Maybe not when the drums start, but later to keep it interesting and dynamic. But as you said, it was an experiment for you to discover how the instruments work together so I'm sure it had the job done ;) Now if you plan on making it an actual song then you might consider this :) I think big orchestral drums are key.
Thanks! I really appreciate you checking it out. Yea, after listening to this a few times, I decided I'm gonna take the portion of the song with all the strings, and the piano, and build up a more complete song from that. Definitely ditching the toms. I have some timpani's that I use a lot for orchestral drums, but I got kind of burnt out on them, that's why they didn't show up here, but I had the same idea, hah.
That's great :D Let us know when you're done with this :)
