  • Dawn & Desiderium - My first attempts with VSL

    Hello everyone!

    After spending way too much time trying to decide which sample library would suit my needs and help me improve my works (at least on a 'sample quality' level ;)), I ended up purchasing the VSL Special Edition about two weeks ago - and, of course, after impatiently staring at the progress bar during the installation, felt the urge the try it out and play with it. I can't say anything but "Wow!", not just to the quality of the sample content, but also to the pain-free installation and usage of the software that comes with it. It just works; and it's fun!

    I'm not a big composer, and my tracks always end up a little fantasy-themed; still, I've had (and I'm still having!) a lot of fun with VSL, and thought I'd share my first two 'serious' attempts at writing tracks which were done with nothing but the VSL Special Edition Bundle from scratch.

    Don't expect too much, though! 😊


    Desiderium - Only strings, a flute and an oboe. Rather 'classical', soothing.

    Dawn - Fantasy Theme; the whole palette, from strings, percussion, piano, woodwinds, horns, and the soprano choir. 😊


    I hope you'll enjoy listening to them; if you wish to drop any feedback, feel free to do so, but it's certainly not required.

    Regards

    Dominik

  • Hey Dominik!

    Just listened to 'Dawn'... great piece and well put together.

    It reminded me of Bonnie Scotland!

    I'm not sure if that was your intention, but it took me right up into the hills and wilderness - I could almost smell the Heather!

    Keep up the work!
