Pitch bending strings?
Does anyone have any insights on how guys like this pitch bend strings? I've tried AUNewPitch in Logic but it gives it a really fake sounding pitch bend.. When I use the pitch bend midi automation I can only pitch bend like a half step? Curious how this is done 'professionally'. Cheers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVV37TpJ2a0&list=RDvVV37TpJ2a0&start_radio=1
What Strings do you use for Trailer Music?
So I’ve collected a bunch of string libraries since I started in this genre about 2.5 years ago, but as you all know, the grass is always greener on the other side 🫠 I have Nucleus, Jaeger, CSS, and Pacific Ensemble, but I still have the feeling I’m missing something. Personally, I’m looking at AERIA for the extra articulations, but it feels a bit wasted since most of the content overlaps with Nucleus and Jaeger. I’d appreciate hearing some trailer cues from you guys, along with information on which libraries were used, to see everything in context 😊

I only have a small amount of experience, I have been using Albion ONE, Appassionata, and Colossus (as well as Spitfire Solo strings, 8Dio solo strings suite, and nashville strings) for a little while now and while they take forever to load I think the quality is really nice. I haven't used CSS yet unfortunately (I hear it has less room control?). Happy to answer any questions you might have on these libraries or send samples, cheers!
Panning tuts?
Does anyone have any good tutorials for panning with orchestral elements? I cant find anything for trailer music for some reason..

@Serhii Serheikin Thanks for the info, I was basically using lower (middle) to upper (panned). Sounds like I've been panning too hard according to chatGPT lol

@Peter Sauleda This is what I've been doing lately and then cross checking the responses with google searches because chatGPT can and WILL get things wrong
Using high quality reference audio for mixing?
Hey everyone, quick reference question: What track do you use as a general reference audio file? ChatGPT is saying something like Audiomachine's 'Guardians at the Gate' is a good overall reference for various reasons. I was just looking for something that works for MOST mixes to include in my template to occassionally make sure im not WAY off on my mixes. Also was told I should NOT rip audio off youtube as it has issues and is not a good reflection of the original sound. Thoughts on what to use, and where to get a good quality file (wav?)?
Best places to get feedback on cinematic music?
Hey all, I'm working full time but when I have time I'm producing cinematic music. However outside of this community I dont really have friends or other groups of folks that I can bounce tracks off of. All my other friends produce different kinds of music and/or aren't interested in what im doing HA. Anyways, do you guys have a good place for getting feedback on cinematic tracks you're working on by other professionals or folks in similar genre? Thanks so much, also interested in hearing other peoples WIP tracks.
