Up to 50% OFF COURSES - Black Friday Specials Ends Monday thinkspace.ac.uk/courses/

Interesting vid- the jazz brass is a great discovery. Worth mentioning that many of the PIANOBOOK sounds can be played without Kontakt using the DECENT SAMPLER that you can download free

There are some insanely good free instruments out there - would be interesting to see a sort of "Challenge" from your channel where starting / new composers get access to the "top tier" sample libraries, and professionals like you are forced to use free instruments. Could result in some great music all around but would definitely showcase skills over tools!

I can't even begin thanking you for making us aware of these incredible freebies, because I'd never stop! I've said it before and I'll say it again, those of us making music at home have never had it so good.

Guy, your videos are delightful and thoroughly entertaining, thank you.

OMG thank you Guy! The Librewave Rhapsody Bell and Bone! I've been looking for some dynamic brass instruments. Can't wait to try it!

Wonderful, wonderful piece of music you created there Guy!

Oh Man. This trumpet is beautiful. Thanks ❤

Like it, Guy. The Bell and Bone plugin works really well. Downloaded. Thanks :).

Beautiful.. just beautiful..👍

Lovely composition Guy. I’m amazed at how fast you can get a full idea going.

What an absolutely amazing composition!

Been working for years now on my tracks, utilizing just all the hand-me-downs from my musical major friend, who also received his packs via hand-me-downs from professors. Some hella expensive, some fully free! I love the whole idea of making music with whatever you have at the moment. Not everyone has 800 bucks to spare for an urge to make music for a hobby, rather than a job, so I live for those free plugins, or whatever you get with the DAW purchase pack you get.

Love that music! Really spacious gently melodic….wow!

Great selection of freebies Guy - Vital is pretty amazing for nowt! Sine libraries, BBC SO & Project Sam Free Orchestra are superb too

Thank you so much! It is actually way better to spend money on your courses! Lovely video! 😄

Again and again, this video (music) just show us your brilliance. Thanks.

Thank you very much for the video!

awesome tune guy WOW! have to agree the courses are gold! cheers janosch

Love the way you think learn so much!!!

Beautifully done.

Guy ... thank you... I absorb your musicality with every video

Thanks Guy!!

Sir... this is awesome seen from any perspective... technically and artistically😊

Thank you very much, Guy 🤗

Really enjoyed that! Somehow gave me 90's Goldsmith vibes.

Ace advise Ace resources and a wonderful composition as I don my sunglasses of envy 🙏🏿🙏👍🎶

Good idea! It's gonna be great!

Pianobook is pretty awesome as well!

Thanks!,

I am so glad you are back in Logic. It feels like a warm fire on a cold night. :)😊

That VSL harp glis freebee is awesome!

Guy is Magic !

Anything that evokes Tubular Bells is worthy. Well done!

Every time I watch one of your videos I laugh. Many times. Thank you Guy!

Only limited by your creation, not the price of your libraries. Great job!

Thank you again for a great video, Guy! The music is really outstanding, too. I myself use a lot of free resources due to financial reasons, and I know most of these - except Bells and Bones which sounds crazy good!!! Definitely checking it out soon. BTW, all started for me with your channel and the How to Write Music course, so great thanks again!

Bwing! My new favorite expression.

That trumpet sounds amazing

Definitely a House of Cards intro theme kind of vibe with the Bells and Bones coming in.

I loved this song

Have you tried century solo brass flugelhorn? it is a paid plug-in, but not terribly expensive and appears to offer some great flexibility, taking the flugelhorn sample through hybrid processes to simulate any brass instrument as well as thoroughly synthetic brassy tones

Haha it's nice that you chose the same rhythm as "Unsquare Dance" for an ostinato, considering this is a famous one aswell!

LETS GOOOOO

I bought music theory course because i am for sure lacking this knowledge in my production and also because I like this Guy A Lot! Lets roll! :-)

Just wanted to mention that an increasing number of Pianobook freebies are either available for both Kontakt and the free Decent Sampler or just for the Decent Sampler.

Hi Guy, hope you are doing excellent. Could you consider making a sound comparison between traditional orchestral plugins and acoustic samples vwinds. Sampling modeling instruments are sounding very realistic to my ears but your point of view on this matter would be great before investing in this expensive products. Thank you

I've actually more or less stopped downloading free instruments. I know this sounds ungrateful/ungracious, but my system was getting threatened with being totally swamped. And most of them I've only fiddled around with - I haven't actually used them on any projects. So nowadays I only download ones I can forsee a definite use for. Having said that, that Bells & Bones one and the banjo one are pretty tempting! Nice 7/8 composition, too. Thanks, Guy.

If you get a high profile gig, do you use the same approach to writing the track i.e. improvise straight into the DAW? Or do you have a more structured approach?

That Spitfire Labs error you keep getting is because the sample for the selected preset has not been installed. Spitfire loads all available previews from all of the Labs products, but if that category has not been downloaded and installed using the Spitfire Audio app, then the error is presented during the sound preview in Komplete Kontrol.

IMHO The courses are awesome and the best investment you could ever make in yourself, black friday or not!

I don't know if you have ever covered it but "Concerto" is the Roland legacy software and it's all FREE!!! And it covers almost all of the synths from the 80s and 90s and has a tone of Orchestral stuff so well worth a look one of the best free software collections available in my opinion.

Yessir! i will do music with free instruments 😎

Very Very Good

Is that a fader that you're using with your left hand? Is that attached to your controller?

Oooooooh! Guy's on Logic!

This 7/4 is really cool... but are you recording in a 4/4 grid?

The word “FREE” is very friendly word to my student brain

hey Guy, you forgot all the free libraries for the decent sampler (David Hilowitz) sample player, you can also make your own libraries and put effects on it with code like with kontakt, but then for free, there are already a lot of free libraries for DS created by different music creators, one thing tough, the code is specific for DS, it is not KSP (kontakt) cheers m8

hi Guy, the vital chords sound like something Phil Collins would have made for miami vice 😎

Whats the spec of the machine you use ? ta!

VPs avenger 2.0 just dropped too

Thank you very much!🙏

U can check the sourge xt

Hi Guy, Thank you for the music.... okay, Abba. Anyway, great videos as always. Would love to have a longer version of this composition or just a loop. Noticed maybe this one struck your fancy and you decided not to post it, but the haunting trumpet against the background of the string ostinato is just genius here. I will be getting my MIDI/USB cable on Monday to pair my years-old Yamaha keyboard with my recently-built powerhouse. After that I may find myself taking a few hours or so a week off from my 24 hour job just to start creating. Was thinking about Cakewalk, but now that they are going to go for a paid model (can't blame them, but I'm self-centered I guess) that maybe Cubase is the ticket for me. If I had not happened on your videos just a week ago, I would honestly not be thinking about making music at all, but now I'm eager to jump in. I wrote a few clumsy pieces 50 years ago in High School when i had to transpose all the instruments manually, and then dived into the corporate world. Now ready to take the ideas in my head and see if they develop into anything. Be well, Guy.

Vital is awesome, but please consider getting the paid version to support the author.

I love sepcials

I STILL ADD SOME TUBULAR BELLS...

In the MIXING COURSE of yours, you are mentioning "5 songs, delivered as stems, to practice your mixing techniques, including 2 MinusONE™ projects...". What is a "MinusOne" ptoject ?? Thank you !

@8:52 gives me Death Note vibes

I tried to sign up to your thinkspace page. your sign up form is informing me my email address is invalid (which it isn't), any chance of looking into this?

To all of you: What are in your opinion the best Black Friday deals on orchestral libraries?

Ah, yes. I've grown tired of having to figure out how to fix the LABS errors every couple of weeks! The offer some nice free stuff, but in this case, I think you get what you pay for.

I tried the course "introduction to mixing" and can not recommend it. Good text infos but the videos are, and I am trying to be as nice as I can, not good. Messy and all over the place. Hardly anything gets properly explained. I could not believe what I saw there. The only thing that got explained into every little detail was something the teacher afterwards explained as something he never uses because there are better ways to do it. Well done! Maybe it´s getting better later in the course but I stopped after the third video, ready to throw things at my monitor.

X-men trumpet

Check Norland Trumpet. Loads of mutes. Free

How's Larry? Has he made an appearance lately?

"cant create account" on spitfire audio

This is very sepcial

I have a theory: If everyone buys the same plugins they tend to make the same kind of music, but when everyone downloads the same free plugins, they dont. Because there's an element of compromise and discovery.

[BLACK FRIDAY SEPCIAL] Do we need some Dettol? 😁

Sci fi noir.

I honestly wish you'd just get on with it rather than trying to sell a lot of also ran courses. Come on.

Orchestral Tools also do a LABS like instrument on their SINE player which is way better than Layers, just saying
