Project File

BEYOND THE STORM

A cinematic orchestral piece with a generous dose of epic! This project puts the whole ensemble through its paces with a traditional approach to writing that explores a wide range of dynamics, colors, and orchestration techniques.

Explore the project file to study how these virtual instruments were programmed, performed, produced, mixed, and finalized as a polished production. Optionally, use it as a template for your own productions, with the mix and plugin settings in tact.

Note: This video shows the PLAY version of the project, before the OPUS update

The Project File

Explore the project file to study how these virtual instruments were programmed, performed, produced, mixed, and finalized as a polished production. Optionally, use it as a template for your own productions, with the routing, track layout, mix and plugin settings ready to go!

The project contains:

  • All of the MIDI and CC data used to sculpt the final performance
  • Pre-loaded Instrument tracks for the Hollywood Orchestra series + Hollywood Choirs, including the composer’s preferred microphone settings
  • Printed audio STEMS for each section of the orchestra, so you can still hear the project even without owning the sample libraries used.
  • Expression Maps for convenient articulation management and custom keyswitches (where applicable)
  • Track layout, signal flow, and routing optimized for flexibility and easy STEM printing

Notated Score

Included is the full orchestral score in PDF format, PLUS separated parts for each orchestral section for easier reading.

Read along with the project and solo individual instruments for detailed study of how written score can translate into a virtual performance.

Parts include: Woodwinds, Brass, Strings, Percussion, Harp and Choir. (includes “easy clef” versions )

Plugins & Production

See how the final mix was shaped using only stock plugins, and Spaces II (included in East West’s Composer Cloud) – no need for paid plugins!

Bypass plugins to hear the before and after to get a better understanding of the difference each plugin makes.

See how reverb was used and tweaked to enhance the depth and dimension of the orchestra, as well as gluing it all together.

Use the settings as presets for your own productions!

F.A.Q

Does this work with OPUS?

Yes! The long-awaited OPUS update has finally arrived!

Does this work with PLAY?

A Legacy version of the project is included for PLAY compatibility. Note that the legacy version is no longer supported or updated, and might rely on outdated or unsupported versions of plugins, depending on when you download it.

I don't have the sample libraries listed. Can I still use the project file?

Yes. You can load the “Disabled” project and work with the audio stems that cover all of the used sample libraries, or you can replace the sample libraries used with your own. Note that it will not sound the same as the full mix provided.

I don't use Cubase. Can I still use this project?

Unfortunately, the files included will only work with Cubase. This project is made very specifically for Cubase’s features and the plugins that come with it.

My reverb plugin didn't load properly... are the settings or presets available somewhere?

EW Spaces II is known to give a license error on occasion, which means it won’t load the impulse response or work unless you re-load a preset. If you experience this with Beyond The Storm, you can find the reverb settings at the end of the included manual
