How'd you do the Rimsky-Korsakov?

[berkeleyguy]

Could Robert Davis - or Gary Garritan describe how you created those wonderful renditions of orchestral music from the Rimsky-Korsakov book? They sound remarkably close to actual live orchestral performances. It's a result that a lot of us here in these forums are trying for, and we'd all benefit from a bit of detail.

Thanks so much.

berkleyguy,

The 276 examples were created over the course of a couple of years. They were done using different programs - mostly Sonar and some were done in Finale. They cover many aspects of most of the orchestral instruments. Robert wrote some tutorials on the techniques he used which are on our WIKI.

Here are some specific links:

Hope this helps.
