I have finalised the concept for my piece, it is to be a minimal orchestral piece fused with electronic sub bass to add some depth. The inspiration is discussed in the previous post.
My intentions are to create an atmosphere using the organic textures of acoustic instruments, to do this I have acquired the starter pack for East West's Symphonic Orchestra and am in the process of playing in the appropriate chords via midi.
To cover the whole frequency spectrum I will be layering the various instruments, having a full range of strings and horns. To give space to the mix I will be fine tuning reverb across the instruments.
Due to the minimalist nature of the production a lot of attention needs to be paid to the details, the length of the reverb, the velocities of various notes (to give as authentic a feel as possible), equalisation (to prevent frequency clashes) and bus compression to help mesh the layers together.
Using these techniques and others I hope to achieve a spacious and meaningful cohesion of sound.
