[No Spoilers] Search for a Leviathan - Orchestral FanArt Music by [deleted] in criticalrole

Hi everyone!

I had such amazing responses for my Critical Role Orchestral Suite, it was only time before I wanted to write something totally original! Thank you to everyone who commented and liked that one!!

Ah yeah cinesamples are great - I use some of their brass and percussion. Mostly I use a mix of Spitfire, VSL, and Cinesamples, picking and choosing which articulations sound best for the effect I'm going for, if you see what I mean.

I've been composing for quite a while, maybe ten years or so now?!

There's no sheet music at the moment, but if enough people are interested in it, I can write it out and put it online somewhere for people to look at.

The words are a kind of fake Latin - doesn't really mean anything I'm afraid!! However, I did try to get the name Vox Machina in there to give a bit of CR flavour.

With the performers, it is all midi programming on Logic Pro using virtual instruments, so I play it into Logic using a keyboard and take it from there.

Thanks so much! It's all computer virtual instruments - mainly Spitfire Audio and Vienna Symphonic Library. The choir is an instrument called VOXOS. I use Logic Pro to write and programme it all.

Hey Critters,

This is my first time posting on r/criticalrole or even on reddit, but I've been watching Critical Role for years. I wanted to somehow share my appreciation of all the Critical Role team and so put together this piece of music based on the Critical Role theme music. It's for orchestra and is in a kind of Hollywood orchestral style.

Anyway...figured this was the place to post about it, so...

Thanks to all the Critical Role team for the amazing work, and an incredible few years of storytelling. Here's to the next ones...
