I got pulled onto this on Monday to take over Beatdrop's claim, guess something came up and he wasn't able to finish. I'll be working late into the night tonight and all of Saturday to get something decent finished in time. If anyone is up to help critique it that would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys, I made some arrangement for bonetrousle. I've tried to keep the papyrus feel in this song Bonetrousle remix What do you guys think ? Hope you guys like it

I enjoyed this, specially since I played tons of pw64 back in the days, but this had a lot of missed potential. So I would say to YB to push the personalization a bit further next time. Nice work regardless.

Wow, so glad to see someone else loves The Jedi Steps! The mystery, the swelling emotion, the sense of conclusion - too good. Nice work recreating it!

Ah, this has always been such a fun and energetic piece! I think you captured the bounciness and movement very well. You've done great work here! I feel like your lead instruments could use some extra oomph, though. They can feel underpowered at times, especially your horns when they carry the melody. However I'm still pretty new to all this, so that could just be me!

I really enjoyed timaeus222's track. Lots of energy. Makes me want to check out the original (can't do much better than that when remixing game music). Also, this is a neat concept for an album. Makes me wonder what a Gunpei Yokoi EP would've been like.

I have CineSamples. It's okay. Some patches are amazing, like Horns legatos in CineBrass. The Winds are okay, they used to have bad noise issues and it got mostly fixed recently, but still nothing really inspiring. I have no comment on their strings, but I have a different recommendation for strings nonetheless. I think CineBrass is the strongest of the three, I would JUST get that one if you wanted CineSamples. For full orchestra, I recommend Albion ONE. Fantastic sound, mixability, and good legato patches. It's not split into each instrument section like most libraries but... it really doesn't matter if you're not doing meticulous orchestration. You have Highs, Lows, and Mids, and that's really all you need to paint really pretty pictures. Plus, the fact that it's pre-recorded as sections voiced together only makes it sound more organic when you have legato lines. For individual sections, as I said before CineBrass is good brass. For winds, CineWinds is okay and you get the main solos (clarinet, flute, piccolo, bassoon, oboe) which is good for a standard selection. Around VI-Control though, you'll see people talk very highly of Berlin Woodwinds, and their articulation switching system is out of this world. For strings, I have to recommend Cinematic Strings 2. CS2 is one of those libraries that everyone loves. It's simply designed and you just pop it into your project and it works. Has a great, full-bodied sound too, and with some good reverb it's honestly pretty convincing. I understand bundle pricing and all that is a big factor in a decision; if that's the case and it's important to you, then do get the CineSamples bundle. It's like the difference between a good chicken sandwich and a good cheeseburger; you're gonna have a good time either way.
