Composing Tutorials Online 'CTO Cubase DE Scoring Template': The Template developed by Professional Composer Dirk Ehlert with the aim of Speed and Efficiency in Music Making
Dirk Ehlert, a German-born composer, currently living in Spain, has been working for numerous production music labels such as Universal, BMG, dos brains, BrandX, ReallySlowMotion for trailers, commercials, TV, games and movies for more than 12 years. Composing Tutorials Online, founded by Dirk Ehlert, provides a platform for tools, resources and learning materials for composers and noise enthusiasts. Composing Tutorials Online has recently released 'CTO Cubase DE Scoring Template' ('DE' stands for initial of Dirk Ehlert) — The template grown and developed by composer Dirk Ehlert over several years while he was working in the field of production music and scoring with the aim of speed and efficiency and to be able to have the shortest distance from musical idea to client delivery.
Dirk Ehlert points out one of the key features of CTO Cubase DE Scoring Template is to have a basic sound aesthetic out of the box that works without going too deep into the necessities of additional mixing and tweaking. He believes that 90% of mixing is more a question of a tracks arrangement and orchestration and he still has found a lot of issues with sampled instruments and their inherent frequency stacking. Over the years he realized that he had to dial in certain EQ settings again and again to avoid this issue and clean up his mixes. Although a lot of the necessary mixing steps depend substantially on the actual track you are writing (style, key, instrumentation, etc.), CTO Cubase DE Scoring Template serves as a solid starting point for a cleaner mix out of the box. The sound that this template produces is at least much clearer and much more open.
CTO Cubase DE Scoring Template comes with roughly 500 instrument tracks from all different sorts of sample libraries preloaded and deactivated. This template does not come with any of the sample libraries included, so you need to own them yourself and have them installed on your system or in case you don't own the ones used in the template you will need to replace them with libraries you own to make this template work. With CTO Cubase DE Scoring Template when you print your track to stereo and print stems, the sum of the stems will be 100% identical to the stereo master. So when publishers require stem limiting, meaning that in your tracks that you sent to your publisher the sum of your stems sound somewhat the same as your master, you can deliver stems that equal 100% your stereo mix.
CTO Cubase DE Scoring Template is composer Dirk Ehlert's regular working template that he has been using for years for production music and all that kind of stuff. All the patches when they have key switches attached to them will come with their respective Expression Maps. So when you create a patch or a track look at the expression maps. The majority of instrument tracks in this template are using Kontakt 7, which allows for instance wide purging for the sake of saving on RAM resources. CTO Cubase DE Scoring Template provides Dirk Ehlert's personal over-years accumulated EQ settings for every single instrument in this template. Every single instrument has at minimum an instance of Slate Virtual Mix Rack (mostly for console emulation, but also used for EQ and compression or PreAmping) and an instance of FabFilter Pro Q3 with his personal settings to clean up the sound. CTO Cubase DE Scoring Template would be a great learning platform to be able to understand individual mixing decisions.
