There are a number of threads going here that I would like to respond to, so I feel a little bad starting up a new one of my own; but I've had very limited free time lately because I've started grad school (it is way more time consuming than I would expect something that is "flexible for working adults" to be). What time I've had has been spent either trying to keep from getting too rusty on the guitar or putting together a master VO template to better my workflow. Now I need some objective ears, because frankly I think I'm just tinkering too much, not getting anywhere with it, and neglecting making actual music.
Below is a link to a little scratch track I started with the template that I think is beginning to take shape. there are some parts that are just sort of "blocking" and other parts that are a little more coherent. I didn't want to use such an incomplete, sloppy track or one with so much "exoticism" in the orchestration, but this is all there is right now. I'm primarily looking for thoughts on relative volume, placement / spacing, and general "technical" stuff, but all comments are welcome, of course. Remember, though, this is just a sketch at this point.
There are also some parts that I think sound like bad rip-offs of Jesse Hopkins' soundtrack to Mount and Blade, so I'll have to do something about that...
