Hey guys I just got the complete east west composers pack and so far I have only played around with the orchestra stuff but I am slowly installing the rest. However I wondered if you all could take a listen to my two new demo tracks on my profile page these are only in the beta stages but any feed back is welcome as they will be published in one of the up and coming titles I am composing for. If your lazy and do not want to click my picture here is a link with my tracks Moddb.com The new tracks are New string idea and also Action theme. check them out and see what you think.

Best wishes

Thats really epic! the strings are very nice. Just personal taste but i think the short 'crashes / footstep sounding sounds' at the beginning could be a bit deeper, bass-ier.

Thanks for sharing that with us

I just upgraded my computer so I am now working with 8 gigs of ram instead of two. I just made a song with mainly East West orchestra instruments and I too need some feedback as well. Dreads your feedback from me is on it's way right after this. Here is a sample of my new song: Click Me

Please comment and let me know what you think! Also, make sure to read the caption first and keep that image in your head. Now off to Dreads' profile I go.

At Peace String Addition Sample was made with a lot of East West
Love Theme after 1:36 has a lot of East West
The Beginning of The Two Assassin's Meet [Revamp!] has a lot of East West
War in the Evening Sky is comprised of over 90% East West Plugins. Steinberg Piano and the Orchestra plugin. I believe two of the patterns used in that song so far are using the Nexus plugin.

'Aeternum vale' is in a completely different league to 'Hoc est bellum'.

Aeternum vale - great 'full' and rich sound, which developers usually love. Nice production, great synth pad. Low hits could do with a bit more reverb, and as another user pointed out, a bit more bass. Also the vocal is lost behind that nice synth pad. Bring the pad down, because if you're going to have a vocal (from Voices of Passion?) then you can't just hide it.

- Tip for vocals, put a dotted 1/8 note delay on it and a long reverb. Works every time. (It definitely needs more reverb)

As for 'Hoc Est Bellum' - to me, it doesn't sound finished. You have the foundation of a good track. But the orchestration needs to bigger / fuller, and you need some more percussion. Eastwest's Percussion library is by far the best thing about it, so make use of it. You probably got Stormdrum 2 as well.

yea man I got the whole composers pack. I have done more work on Hoc Est Bellum recently and when I tried to upload it all seemed fine and then there is some sort of error that moddb keeps popping up with, any way once I sort it out I will pop it up on my profile and it would be great to get some more feedback
