How to Write a Mad Max Action Cue in Two Hours | Two Hour Cues | Heavyocity

[@TeddyTOG]

Great stuff. I don't think anyone without experience understands how much work goes into trailers. Track stacks/groups are your best friend.

[@jordoneaton7083]

I love how there's no technical, many-layered reasoning behind any of the inspiration for the design. "It just feels good". FINALLY, someone who's honest about it. As much of a genius as he is, I highly doubt John Williams is really thinking "I'm going to write this in the mixolydian of D and here I shall resolve from the tonic 6-4 inversion to ...." No, damnit, it sounded right, it felt right, so that's what he composed. We would do well to stop over-analyzing it.

The only channel that's allowed to ask for a subscription right at the beginning. Just subscribed and liked after watching a few very informative videos! Keep up the great work!

[@drangedpsyched283]

Its official the brass section is my favorite part of the orchestra

[@ScoreHeroMusic]

Can I just say as a professional composer, what you guys are doing is benefitting the global music producer community. :)

[@davidklemencz]

definitelly :)

[@2ndAveScents]

Their bank accounts are well aware!

[@nathanieldiazrua]

Man, your string arrangement is sick!! I don't know how you came up with that, but you did and it's freaking good!

[@brianmichaelfuller]

This is my favorite 2 hour cue so far! Not only is it crafted well, it is composed perfectly for an appropriate tense action scene. Sometimes we over think stuff but you mentioned the “vibe” several times... Thanks for reminding us that the ‘vibe’ is critical! The emotion that a cue creates is everything!!! #inspired

[@jeradatherton]

Love this. Thank you.

[@timpate7340]

Amazing work Neil

[@Heavyocitymedia]

Thank you!

[@nathanieldiazrua]

Wow, this is great. Love the track!

[@edmasters4454]

Thanks for taking the time, to record and share this. Cool piece and helpful to see the details. Luv the products Heavyocity makes -- great to see them "in action."

[@ScottGlasgowMusic]

Thanks.

[@denovaire]

thanks for the video :) its a powerful track! humble clarification: portato: using one note on a bow, separated (detaché) with a slight gravity to it. marcato: using one note on a (down) bow with a forceful accent spiccato: short notes on alternate bow which is bouncing a bit staccato: short notes legato: notes tied together ricochet/ saltando: falling bow

[@Levi_Leviathvn]

Thank you again Neil for making these videos. Always love these for inspiration.

[@AlexLisiReal]

Thank you for this wonderful tutorial, so inspiring!

[@jaythansparksmusic]

Hello Neil..., as these videos are OUTSTANDING in terms of inspiration, instruction, and craft building, in 'this' particular session, it would have been even more EPIC had you allowed us access to the complete and entire 2-hour process. So much is edited out and again, there's so much there too (smiles). I honestly know that I would gain so much more valuable knowledge if I was able to watch your complete process of each asset being placed and introduced in the timeline. Does anyone know of "any" TUTORIALS like that...(??) Again Neil, thank you from my heart, for what you have shared. ~jaythan

[@moltomezzopiano]

Simply the best videos.... Keep it going Neil!

[@ianswart3037]

This is really cool

[@TheMrFinalizer]

Great stuff! I'm using a lot of Heavocity stuff. Great libraries! I have a question. So, all this tracks are going thru Bricasti? Are you using any vst reverb plugins?

[@Heavyocitymedia]

Yes some of the tracks are going to 2 Bricasti's. One is a set to a hall and the other is a large wooden room. I'm also using an altiverb for the long low string Brahms in the intro with a very long reverb tail.

[@spectralknights2]

Hi. Please make more Reaktor synths. They're all awesome. Thanks

[@MicahMiller1]

This was awesome. The track was really, really good, and the video was super informative. I learned a lot and am inspired! I love the heavyocity stuff. The guitars sounded especially cool to me. Would be curious to know what you used to record them. Smashed that sub button. Cheers!

[@Heavyocitymedia]

i'm using a mesa boogie dual rectifier head with their 4 x 12 cab and a Les Paul with a low B strung on it instead of E ;)

[@randycat6160]

Nice :)

[@jeradatherton]

What is that fader mixer?

[@drangedpsyched283]

It takes me days to come up with 1/3 of a concept.

[@scottyb3b7]

Whose cans are you using there? - Sennheiser HD 650s? I am looking for some quality circumaural cans for my big ears. ;)

[@Heavyocitymedia]

Yes, sir! They are Sennheiser HD650s!

[@16914]

cool

[@RP14_Music]

where can we download this track?

[@eross21]

what plugin or amp for the guitar tone?

[@Heavyocitymedia]

[@eross21]

@@Heavyocitymedia the tone is really nice. wait what? low B so is it a string from a 7 string guitar, or bass guitar? I'm confused. or is it just tuned to drop b

[@eross21]

Do you have a heavier gauge on the low e string?

[@eross21]

also, what is the tuning on that guitar? sorry for all the questions, i just really like that tone

[@Heavyocitymedia]

@@eross21 i'm using a 7 string pack of guitar strings ;) no "high e" string
