   Wow these are pretty amazing! What programs do you use to create them?

   Thanks for your comments, Christopher. There are actually a large number of programs and sample libraries that you hear in the music. Among them are the top virtual instruments and sample libraries in the industry. Since each film score is a bit different, various libraries are used. This makes the list a bit long for posting here. If you have a specific question, shoot me a message and I’ll respond to that.

   Hi Jurgen,

   Your music is absolutely stunning. Your use of space in the mix sounds fantastic. What reverb(s) are you using? I particularly like the score from Standing Firm. Really great sound. Keep up the great work.

   Thanks for your kind remarks, Gavin!

   I use a number of reverb plug-ins to create the space that especially the orchestra sits in. Among them are Altiverb, Breverb, and the VSL Hybrid and Convolution Reverbs from the Vienna Suite. Then there are the natural reverbs from some of the sample libraries that I only enhance a little bit with the above reverbs to fit them into the same room. The most significant aspect is that each section is individually treated in the mix, rather than running everything through a single plug-in or hardware reverb. That may be something done in mastering, and only sparingly.
