I've had a year of freshman theory and am writing / producing again while out of work. I'm using Reaper and Musescore mostly. For sounds I have Pianoteq and recently picked up the Sonivox Orchestral Companions for $4 each. I've also downloaded some free drums (SSD5, VSCO2 CE) as well as GrandOrgue. I'm eyeing VSCO2 Pro when I can spend the cash. I've also begun reading Samuel Adler's "The Study of Orchestration" (2nd ed.).
I'm interested in too many things musically but mostly classical and electronica. I aspire for the virtual orchestra to be my final render, not just a mock up. I'm not a performer but recently bought a Samson Graphite 49 controller. I haven't tried it yet and am a bit nervous moving away from the mouse as a midi entry tool.
My immediate plans are to keep reading and writing while working on as many Metapop competitions as I can. This will keep me producine and maybe I'll get good enough to win Komplete.
Here is a piece I recently realized with the Sonivox brass and SSD5:https://clyp.it/i11azole
I'm hoping to receive suggestions on other things I can do to learn as I travel this new road of music composition / production. I'm also jappy to get feedback on my work and advice on how to go shopping when I'm able to.
