    @andrewbeckett4001 5 днів тому

    I have too many libraries like most composers these days. BUT a few are just golden! 1- Albion Solstice - Mother of Inspiration, I call it. A “folk noir orchestra” sounds like a gimmick BUT IT REALLY IS A GOTHIC ORCHESTRA like the people from “Midsommer” would chant to. Gorgeous timbres you WILL NOT find elsewhere and very well done on the others. Ie yes you'll find a hurdy gurdy vst easy but 999/1000 sound like well you know. This one is a real organic sound quivering with harmonics and mechanisms- but the folk choir- the best choir outside expensive choral vsti. As good or better than Genesis, folk choir with ancient Celtic articulations. Solstice gives ideas when you have none. 2- Time micro (the video) has a SHWACK of many many curated combos with rich layered timbres as he shows off at the start. BUT ALSO!! That's the Time Orchestra made of instrument recordings. Then you also get another whole set of processed or hybrid sounds BUT the cool thing is you also get the instruments which make those sounds: Choir Contrabass clarinet Bass flute Zither Celeste Mandolin (and about 7 more individual instruments as well) ALSO! Combinations like Mandolin, Zither and Harp etx (isn't there also a string ensemble with many rare articulations?) Awesome stuff!!

    Once your account is back/restored, no need to feel its somehow unclean. I think this is a huge mistake, losing nearly 20k hard earned subs. I am not entirely sure you realize how hard it is to get views / catch the algo wave like you have within the last several months. Your recent videos are soaring into 6k views, while new channel can barely get a few hundred. I know many UA-camrs personally who have channels in the 200K plus subs, why not just delete videos you don't think fit here? Please I plead with you just save this channel in case you come back or have regrets.

    I am merely a music hobbyist and I try to learn programming to get a better career. Everywhere you go online, you can only see AI will do this, AI will do that. You will be out of a job, regardless of your profession. We do not know what future will bring. But for now, for me - AI is just a buzzword to convince investors to give AI companies some significant amounts of cash. Of course AI is evolving and it can do a lot of things, BUT on the other side of prompts - YOU STILL NEED A HUMAN - who understands and know what he wants, the human is still a judge, editor, auditor etc. of the AI output. You still need someone PROFESSIONAL to make decisions if an AI output is GOOD or BAD. You can compare it to NO-CODE solutions - all of them are good at creating something average and simple. But when you need something more sophisticated and custom - you will need a PROFESSIONAL who will do that for you. Putting aside legal aspects of AIs and LLMs databases. Even if AI will take over - LLMs are generating stuff based on theory of probability. They will never give you the BEST answer. And when everyone will be using AI to generate music - in time we will be tired of hearing more and more similarities. And again, in order to create something different - even created by AI - you will still need a PROFESSIONAL to curate the AI outputs and customize it. And ordinary people from a street won't be able to do that, as they won't have the skills or ear and experience. If AI will take all of our jobs, what we will bee doing? Sitting around doing nothing? I don't think so ;) In a macro scale - you can not allow masses to do nothing as they will start to misbehave and cause trouble. And governments can not have that to happen. Of course I may be wrong about all of this. But I wish all of us all the best :)
