Hey folks,

So a few months ago I've booked a session with the 99Ochestra, which offers live orchestral recording sessions (30-piece Orchestra)  for very cheap (99$ for 7min of recording). The Session happened at the end of January and I just wanted to share my final result with you guys, hoping you will find it informative.

So here is my final result after a quick mix and the addition of sampled percussion :

Best,
Claude

This was totally worth it!

Just be careful as you'll only get a 7min session for 99$. So make sure that what you write makes sense and is actually achievable by the players. During the session, I've heard a few pieces that didn't work because of bad orchestration.

Thanks for sharing! Definitely something to consider for future pieces.

Thanks for posting this. I had been a little curious about what kind of result I could expect from something like this. This really helps though.

Oh wow - thanks for posting dude. Never heard of this service and I must admit my heart is pounding right now.
It will be a dream come true to hear my stuff (not that I really have something worth playing yet) being played by a real live orchestra.
The piece sounds great. I have a few questions about the writing process.
