No thanks, close this window
Hi Erick, thanks so much for the 5 stars, I love your work, I wish I'd written Emotional Piano! What do you use for Piano sound, I'm guessing you have a nice collection of vst pianos?
Hey, thanks! I'm flattered to hear that :) I think we always hear others music as better than our own in some ways - because we are so familiar with our own aesthetic. Maybe it's like listening to ourselves talk? haha Because some of yours hit me in a similar way as you describe Emotional Piano! I've got a few piano vst lol But I do like some of the free ones. To be honest I cannot remember which one I used for that one. But judging by when I wrote it (about 5 years ago or so) it was probably one of the UVI Piano Collection ones - (I think I was partial to the fazioli or steinway they recorded.) They aren't the best pianos, but they are pretty decent for the price. So it was probably one of those. Lately I've been using the Native Instrument ones (including Unicorda at times), and XLN's Addictive Keys.
I must admit we definitely have a few tracks in the same ball park. I have a UVI vst also, and all the Native ones too, my go to has been Noire for a while, but Cinesamples Cinepiano suits my classical stuff.
Hey Mike! Thanks for the likes :) I had a quick listen to some of your music. Really great stuff, and some of it even reminds me of my own pieces lol That name is familiar to me (not just from the American version of The Office). Did you by chance purchase a sample library from Beautiful Void Audio (my company)? Just curious ;) Well, thanks again and cheers!
I had to add the L, pinched from my son Louis, I don't even have a middle name but there are so many Mike Scott musicians! I thinks I did purchase from BVA yes, small world lol. I've been experimenting with samples but prefer to do it myself really. I'm looking to write some meditative tracks, like the ones you had selected recently, just wondered what evolving pads vst you used, or perhaps samples?
