Excuse the misleading title please

So, tell me whatcha think!

Beastly. Wish it could be downloaded

Will be done as soon as I get a few more opinions

It's very close to the original theme, good job!

There is too much reverb in my opinion. Also I feel that the strings have too much sustain, dunno if you see what I mean. The notes keep playing for too long which makes it not very confortable to listen.

What kind of samples are you using here? The strings do not sound very natural IMO. I have a couple of great free soundfonts (format .sf2) if you want.

Also, the background notes are too far away, or maybe is it the main theme (kind of lead) that is too present. Try to make the background more present. Just a small violin (or flute) is enough for the first lead (and closer to the original) and that will leave more headroom for the background.

Other advantage of a softer intro: you'll get a great overwhelming feeling when the whole orchestra enters.


Other than that, good job!

I like it a lot I think the high notes are a bit too sharp, but other than that it's perfect.
