It is bullshit!

Honestly, I cannot stress how badly I needed to hear those words coming from someone other than myself. I didn't realize how badly until Hans said it. I'm having a moment rn.

@George Overworth Some people here are not getting the point.

@@johanneskepler873 Same brother…same

@George Overworth an instrument is also a tool, you tool

@James Ryan Ceballos Sketching - Mostly only if you are a top professional, or in academia for a time. Otherwise it's just typically an alternative to synths. That's the reality 99.99% of the time. there aren't tens of thousands of folk with serious access to orchestras!

I use vsts to compose theatrical music. I love the atmospheric sounds. I like composing cinematic sound tracks.

I agree too. I use everything that I can to compose music. The finished sound track is what matters to me.

Well... if you are after the orchestral sound and expressiveness, the live orchestra will always be way superior to samples. Samples behave very differently to that organic self-balancing body of the orchestra. Orchestra is not pushing volumes faders and using EQ, it's about very different set of skills and people should realize using samples and working with a real orchestra are two different things.

@@consonaadversapars That's a vital point..

Ha ha. Sounds familiar. I remember sampling Ian Paice's snare from Machine Head on my new Akai S900 and feeling very pleased with myself...

I Remember sampling some prince linn Snare back into my Akai S3000 and pressing the key over n over too!

Good to see you here, K-391, I love your music. End Of Time collab with Alan Walker and Ahrix was incredible 🙌🏻

Wowww k glad to see you here.

When i see the poster of k 391 i suddenly click on it

Yo yo

fancy seeing you here

Jumping from acoustic guitar to a daw was such a dramatic shift for me, timing and randomness as a main problems were obvious from the start. It almost is like you need do some graphical editing CAD like thing for preparation before creativity, but that same creativity kicks in and what you made is almost a final thing and it is going thru clicking the computer keyboard and moving hand from the wrist using one finger. The entire range of movement is summed to that, so you almost need to prepare the randomness and mistakes so that it fits into that paradigm of analitics and repetition of dragging mouse around.. wierd stuff, after 5000 hours in fl studio i still doubt i can recreate organical sound of samplers and old analog synths, depth and spectrum thru just a computer and the interface. Exsample I pick guitar form the corner of my room, sit, start playing. I turn on pc.. ______________( write your workflow here ) P.s. guitar on your knee is already beeing modulated thru stomping and stuff, no such thing on a computer...pure analitic, and creativity comes from being consciouss which is opposite of computing with frontal lobe. Some kind of a workflow is a must. My two cents as my battle with daw continues.. Cheers

Shame all those "assistants" making the modern scores are not Williams/Goldsmith/Horner/Herrmann/Rozsa level *composers* so we could get some actually awesome orchestral writing.

Both of these scores are the best I’ve ever heard.

Yes reeses in movies! Funny combination

True!! The greatest to ever do it in my opinion. Not only did he create a ton of iconic & mind-bending scores, but also he changed the industry in the process.

"Freed up time and resources" What a technocratic view of music.

@George Overworth Wrong answer

Hans is a visionary mass-murderer of musical creativity and invention.

He is not. He treats his staff (underlying composers) poorly and exhibits some strange online behaviour.

@@brendandowse Bullshit lol. Don’t believe everything you see online for fucks sake.. and yes I know exactly what you’re talking about, Hans was right

@@TheRockinBK Thank you! I've seen everything he's talking about & I fully agree with you. Some people just want to create false narratives to bring successful people down, never works.

@@brendandowse BS! I have met Hans and he is a very charming, interested and empathetic person. I was recording in his studio in London and got very sick. In the rec room on the couch feeling awful he constantly came out of his room (whilst composing Rain Man) and took the time to make me tea and enquire as to my well-being. He’s a business man who has high expectations with deadlines and pressures, could be that in certain moments he cracks the whip. Totally understandable in some situations.

@@bilalkahhaleh3403 While there are people who refuse to believe victims of bullying behaviour because it doesn't suit their hero narrative, it will continue.

Win the lottery, then pay him to be his assistant.

@@AceDeclan for real. Stan is tripping

@@AceDeclan you are gifted with wisdom ?

Hell yeah!!!!

If stan is tripping Daltira is tipping 🤯😝

He has one of the biggest egos lol

Always

I think i felt it as well. Was weird 😬

Their strings are meh imo. They charge more just for the Air Studio sound. I like Labs and Albion but as a whole I prefer elsewhere.

they don't even sample the fucking portamento for their strings, they fucking emulate it HAH, imagine spending hundreds of dollars of a string then not even bothering to sample portamento like how most guitar vst's do it

@@snesmocha I agree with you.

@George Overworth And? Who cares about musical knowledge? Music theory is for maths geeks who aren't creative enough to make music from the heart.

He has said that in his master class

Everything becomes a sample the moment you record it.

@@ransbarger Indeed! Then you load that up in a sampler and it becomes an instrument and so on, the circle of life... :)

Saw ur man of steel pfp came to say man of steel ost by zimmer is his best work

Btw I like those to alot so no shade

We sample more of our own sounds!

@@artisans8521 euh... Just record any sound and make something out of it. Maybe not the sound quality of Hanzel his sounds but at least is sounds more authentic. Can be any sound. Does not have to be an instrument. One I sampled my piano for sound design. All kind of sound effect which used for an animation film. So think bigger or different than you used to. For a tv commercial I used cardboard boxes and plastic bags to build beats for the background track. So don't think in quality. Think in creativity!!!

@@artisans8521 your way of thinking is a lack mentality. Don't think of what the other has better than you. Instead try to be the best you can be. Combine a good sounding library with your own shitty sounds to complement it. So stop complaining and start creating

@@TheRockinBK Bingo! You just won a Dishwasher!! 😂

That’s why we have Thomas Newman ❤️

You're far too close minded

I get what you're saying but that's the mixer's fault. Usually studios mix movie sound for cinema and that doesn't translate at all when you're trying to watch a movie at home

@@omegalitico I agree with that. Even at home I may want choose 5.1 or home-friendly mode. It would be nice to have simple slider dialog/music. Whoever Netflix or Prime make it first, will be very popular with viewers :)

@@bw2937 I'm not sure if I expressed it right. I do like Hans Zimmer's soundtrack for The Holiday for ex., good movie and good matching sound/melodies/mood. Yes, it is romantic movie, action movie would not have the same mellow track. But it does not need to be super loud, any sound engineer (should) know how to make it perceived louder and not to overwhelm dialog in the mix. Plus, not everyone can do it as Hans Zimmer. Taking only exaggeration part of, missing music is no good. This is exact trend my grumble is about.
