Mixing orchestral strings

Gh0stwrit3r · October 31, 2019

How to mix strings in a realistic orchestral mockup? That is the question that I’ll answer in this video. I’ll show you my workflow, the plugins that I use and why and how I use them. Hopefully this will give you some guidance when mixing orchestral strings in your own orchestral mockups.

Don’t forget to hit that like button if you appreciate this video. And sub to my channel to listen to my music or if you’re interested in how to write orchestral music for film, tv and games.

Mixing orchestral strings

We all love strings. That Hollywood sweet lush sound never bores us. But how do achieve that sound when you mix strings?

If you’re interested in the Waves plugins that I use (API 550A Equaliser, S1 Imager and NLS) and planning to buy them. If you use this referral link you’ll get an additional 10% discount!

In this video I show you how I only use four plugins to mix the strings. With subtle, almost not noticeable adjustments per track I can realise a huge effect on the strings all together.

Patrons have access to short scores and mockups

If you support me on Patreon for only 1 dollar (ex. VAT) a month, you’ll get access to the orchestral sketches. And of course you can download my music tracks for personal listening too! I guess a no-brainer … lots of detailed information and joy for the price of a cup of coffee!
