Pleaaaasee don't take these videos down like you have with live stuff in the past. Im currently wrapping up an album in a different genre. But I have all of these on my watch-later to take notes on when I get back to my next cinematic project! A lot of the info I've heard from you before, and greatly improved my skills. But this format is so amazing and helpful and will be a great refresher and more.

[@andrewhoven7393]

for poor guy like me I am so happy that u share that long details videos ... it feels like I am in the course 🤗😊

[@DiMakerSound]

Mark, you are a great teacher. I constantly watch your videos and learn a lot. Thanks for what you do! Thanks to you, my music is getting better!🙂

[@yadinmichaeli12]

Thank you so much for this very detailed and awesome tutorial i really appreciate it❤

[@CinematicComposing]

You're welcome! 🙏 I'm so glad you found it helpful.

[@tomwawer5714]

Thank you for the top massive knowledge transfer. It’s amazing!

[@paulmdevenney]

I notice that you don't gain stage the majority of your mixing changes. How do you ensure that you're not just favouring a volume change? That layering/reverb/automation discussion at 1:33 is excellent.

[@DarkAngel-kh9cf]

bro it's funny that you talking about mixing but yet your mic setup killing us 😂

[@arjunghoshal7042]

This is so helpful. Thank you !

[@Lugubriousdescent]

do you have a tutorial on the composition process? how to choose the key, what scale, counter point, phrases, chord progressions, motif , counter motif, modulation, pivot chords etc and how you came up w this composition.

[@erionsheqeri]

Hello Marc, when finishing the project, do you export midi tracks in mono or stereo?

[@vidoemakenoke2424]

vet man. kijken tegen u best. in de film music sound ben blij hulp krijgen hoop ook zo geld over kan en ben blij mee en trots op dit is wat mijn moeer wou laten zien als zij nog leven laten zien dat zij geen zorgen over mij hoeft maken op eigen been kan staan volwassen ben geworden

[@dany.soundtrack]

Hi, one question, How do you divide strings in groups? High: Violins and viola Low: Cello Double Bass: Alone Is it correct?

[@tylerkirk7542]

What’s that online course called with all those modules?

[@lupusnigerprodanddistrodol9305]

Did you pan your tracks in composition moment?

[@BillyPalmerMusic]

Are there any alternatives to MaxxBass? I try to avoid Waves.

[@GUPRPEET-Singh]

Where can i get these sound fx ( i am not taking about the sample library) that is used in orchestral music for free? I know free stuff doesn't sound good. But right now i can't afford to buy good paid stuff.

[@sunumaudio]

I know it's late, but a great FX pack is The Free Orchestra by ProjectSam. It has orchestral FX and percussion stabs, alongside just normal patches for strings, brass, a choir etc. Spitfire audio also has a bunch of great packs for free. BBC Discover is also a good starting point.

[@kankan4008]

Hello, can you suggest about how to deal with the loudness that comes from Strings VST Expression while mixing. I’m new in mixing and I’m so confused about it. Hope you reply this comment, I really don’t know who to ask this question. 🙏🏻

[@paulmdevenney]

This is a guess, because you're question isn't really a question. If you are asking "why use Expression rather than any of the million other ways to change the volume", then I would (personally) suggest considering expression as something to manage as part of the recording of the part. Consider it the emotion put in by the performer as they played. Hiting a string with more force or less to convey the emotion of the piece. The *relative* expression values of the part should be pleasing to your needs *before* taking it to mixing. The other various methods for balancing volume (gain, EQ, compression and others) of a stem are "post recording", and generally should not be used to try and make a mediocre "performance" into a good one. I'm only a hobbiest though. YMMV.

[@kankan4008]

Thank you so much🙏🏻. This is what I asked for. I took a lot of time to think how to make a clear question. My English is not quite good, sorry about that.

[@paulmdevenney]

@@kankan4008 No problems - I'm glad I got it right!

[@eb.1]

Thanks very much for these Marc, you explain these concepts better than anybody else on KZbin! What do you think about the analog saturation plugins contained in Ozone, compared to the Waves Kramer Tape for instance? I have both and am tempted to just use Ozone’s but my mixing skills aren’t trained enough to know what the big differences are.

[@m.m.soundtracks]

Hi, a questions. Stems have to be mono first or they have to be stereos before mixing?

[@CinematicComposing]

Stereo

[@danila_gribochek_kovalev]

which camera do you use to record your videos? a very beautiful picture... do you process your picture somehow?

[@CinematicComposing]

Canon C70 :)

[@jolly7728]

Smart man...too much talking, though. Watched for 31 minutes and then gave up. Maybe he focuses on demonstration later in the video. If I have time, I'll watch the rest of this video one day. Nice composition!

[@boozalm3715]

Lol shut up
