Cinematic Guitars Creative Sound Design

In this video I show the process that went into creating a short cue using Sample Logics Cinematic Guitars. I show how I achieve certain sounds using the great user interface and how easy it is to turn one sound into a completely different one.

Dan, your impersonation of the sound effects are hilarious! Especially the rhythm sections!!

[NotProfane]

Man, you are such a talent! Love that composition!

[PowerRedBullTypology]

If you already use/have a good load of vsti''s, then something like cinematic guitars is really inspiring and refreshing to use.

I assure you all the libraries I use are 100% legally obtained. I am in direct contact with many of the developers on a daily basis. Also keep in mind I compose music for a living so each of my libraries have already made back the money I spent on them over time.

awesome stuff man, it reminded me of Amon Tobins soundtrack to Splinter Cell chaos theory, and to double agent soundtracks.they used same guitar in double agent

Thanks Daniel, great vid.  I'm inspired.   Thanks so much for sharing . . .

Daniel THANKYOU! I've had Cinematic Guitars and was not using but a small part of what I have seen its capable of- Please let me know if you ever
have "Cue School" I will be at front of sign up line! Thanks again!

Nice tutorial!
Thank you, Daniel!!!))

Daniel, your videos have helped me understand an enormous amount about how the software I buy actually works. Unfortunately, after watching your videos I end up being somewhat lighter in the wallet. Anyway, great job. Would you consider doing a quick walkthrough of Cinematic Guitars 2 so we could all see the difference? They are both on sale at the moment at Sweetwater for 99 bucks. That is 1/4 the cost of the original but I am conflicted about which version to get.

I think Nucleus Sounds has a ReFill a bit like this? This cue sounds superb though!! Great work. Having just bought Komplete 7 a short while back, this is looking (and sounding) pretty damn attractive...

I know what are you talking about and YES you are right. But I believe that the CCs can be changed. You can have, for common functions, volume for example, have the CCs executed by the same key on a variety of VSTs. On the other hand, the less peculiar articulations will have to be handle accordingly, meaning you will have a set of CCs for each VST.

D'oh! Of course, I actually meant 8/7 as long. It's early...

[ComposerLaneAnderson]

I know I'm incredibly late on this one, but this was effing AWESOME....(rather short), but awesome, nonetheless!!!

[BlackIce]

@fabriciobelo Ableton Live and Kontakt.

[planetclay]

never heard a bass-player play a floor-tom pattern like that....until now.

[macronencer]

Thanks for this video Dan, it was great! I'm considering buying this. One question: around 31:00 you say "When you change the number of steps, each note is shorter". I would expect this to happen with the Speed control, but if it happened with the Steps control, you could change from 8 steps to 7, for example, and hear notes that are 7/8 as long. I would prefer to have the same note length but in a cycle of 7 that repeats and syncopates - so I'm hoping you just got this wrong. Did you? :)

[beclamide]

Personally I've tried a lot of DAWs and Ableton is easily my favourite.

[DJLA]

Type 'MIDI CC List' into google...is this what you are talking about?

[luckyi]

From all the Kontakt tutorials I've seen on YouTube I bet 99.9% have the plugins copied from somewhere! = P It's just impossible for a regular guy to buy each plugin worth $ 400 - $1500 lol Othewise every musician holding these vsts would be a bum with heavy, sexy musical equipment sticking out of their bum bags! lol

I love these B Grade 80s movie score sounds like Robocop, or hitech horror scores, so cheap sounding, yet so expensive to buy, how do people sign up to become a reviewer and get some legal free libraries is not what I am asking besides I do not like these B Grade 80s movie score sounds or hitech horror scenes, do you, love to love ya baby.
