The Inevitable - Film Score Idea

Here is "The Inevitable". I haven't worked out the score completely. I know there is some where delays in the timing and some weird tonal issues with one part of it. I will look into what is causing. Just curious what your thoughts are so far. 

Wow this is really cool, especially for the film style. You blend your instruments really well, which DAW do you use? What sound samples? I love them.

One thing I would consider is creating multiple tracks for certain instruments (esp. strings) so you can have different effects. For instance, the lush violin lines leading to the big climax moment. The violin sample has a slow crescendo with every note, so to me it makes it sound a bit robotic. One solution is to have some notes with that sample, but other ones with vibrato or sustain or whatever, just to give it a more lifelike texture. I use EWQLSO and have noticed that with my own writing.

It wasn't really apparent to me as far as delays or weird tonal issues. The content itself sounded amazing, great work! Oh...and welcome back. Seeing "Old Members" is weird, huh

I'm using EastWest as well, but I have the Composer Cloud Plus, so I used Hollywood Strings Diamond. I am thinking about doing that for all the strings too because most of them are on legato which causes that swooping sound. I like that but I need others on top. For the brass I am using Hollywood Brass and for the bit of percussion, as you may have guessed, it is Hollywood Percussion. The piano is one of the ones from East West as well. For the DAW I am using Cakewalk.

Yes it is weird to see Old Members and I feel like I remember you from all those years ago. I'm no longer a "young" composer, I'd say, haha.
