Software
- Apple's GarageBand plus the sounds of a symphony orchestra
- I am creating this film score using GarageBand and Jam Pack:Symphony Orchestra.
- Next week, I will be getting MUTO's Symphonic Instrument which has additional musical instruments for GarageBand.
- Using just this combination, I need a GarageBand project file which creates the feeling of mild discomfort. Currently, I am using a violin trill cord. I need a better cord but I don't know how to do this.
