Full 5:00 Orchestra, As far as I have ever gotten with a full orchestra Options

[Spirit_Master_X]

This orchestra is actually for Parakeet's game. Not sure if he will use it or not, but I thought I would let everyone listen and hopefully enjoy it. As the description said, this is the first time I made a FULL orchestra that lasted for five minutes straight. The piece has its epic moments, its sad moments, its dark moments etc.

So, have a listen. Give feedback. Hope you guys like it. Peace.

I'd call that a passive-aggressive audio clip.
Very nice, very clean.

Thanks man. I'd say that my transitions got a lot better since Sovereign. There were parts I wished I had Symphonic Choirs, where in some sections I could've added choirs that sing actual words.

I dig.

The transitions get weak at times, and sometimes what they transition to is awkward xD But other than that, this sounds pretty intense.

Lol yeah I get what you're saying. Sometimes I'll start a section, leave it alone for a while then come back with a completely new idea for the next transition that doesnt really run too well with the previous. Stupid writer's block that messes up stuff

What software do you use to compose? How long did this piece take you to make? How many tracks / different instruments are there?

It's quite an accomplishment to create something with so much going on. I don't think I'd know where to start.

[Spirit_Master_X]

Well granted that certain sections utilizes different instruments. Not all 25 instruments were being played at once. Would've been awesome...but I wouldn't know how to arrange the patterns.
