  • Orchestral Tools Layers
  • Orchestral Tools SINEFactory
  • ProjectSam The Free Orchestra

It sounds like multiple instruments are fighting for dominance.
You need to work with "space" between instruments -> use Volume, Eq and L/R balance. Create a working field between layers, so sounds can dance, insted of fighting.
...sometime lead instruments can figth, but it should be intendent.
Anyway, nice "Rough Diamond".

Thanks for "The Budget Cinematic Composer's Guide: LEVEL 0", it had some really nice sources. Thou, I use LMMS (tool) and (VSCO 2) Library (◠‿◠)

under 2 minutes xd

I'm aware 😎 but I'm too busy to extend it and I like it that way. I'd be more serious next time

Great job! I'd recommend listen to Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story if you want more Blues/Jazz orchestral inspiration.

very frantic sounding, like it
