New template

Settling in for the night with Sonar X3 Producer ,I've just been setting up a new 'template project' which contains violin,cello,dbass,piano and virus snow pad tracks/buses.
 
I really enjoy setting everything up in Sonar for a new project, the sense of getting things in order to create a new soundscape is very satisfying and therapeutic.
 
Prochannel on each track and bus has the console emulator A-type with trim on 5.
 
Each instrument goes to its own bus and has a send to a reverb bus with QLSpaces on it, 100% wet with NY String Hall.
 
The violin has the CA-2A compressor set on limit mode to tame the dynamics.
 
Cello is loaded with both close and stage mics, same as the dbass and piano.
 
I always turn off the stereo doubling in EWPlay, it colours the sound too much for my liking, I want to get a close to the raw samples as I can before adding my own effects.
 
I'm using the Yamaha C7 master for this template,it has a nice brighter tone to the Steinway D I normally load.
 
On the master I have the new Nomad BT stereo imager set as wide as it will go.
 
Now just to wait for some inspiration!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Wish I could do something worth making a template of.
I guess not having them keeps me up on how to load
stuff...or not how to.

Very nice. Really enjoyed that.
