Face to face help needed please
Posted by Russ - 09 Aug 12:28PM
Hi All
I am in London area, and have the latest Sibelius plus EastWestSO platinum, plus Sound Sets from the SoundSetProject. I wish to learn how to put together orchestral backing tracks from scores using this software. I have always found the quickest way to learn is directly from someone with experience, so I would like to book a lesson or two from someone in the UK (hopefully near London!) who would be willing to assist me in my endeavours. (for a small fee of course!!!)
Here's hoping!!
Russ

Are you having problems with the mechanics of getting the score onto the Sibelius page, or are you looking for tips on optimising playback?

No, I do not have any specific problems...it is just that I want to learn exactly how to operate this setup with maximal efficiency in the minimum time, and face to face learning is a lot faster than trying top read 3 or 4 900 page manuals and figure out how they all operate together. Does Sibelius/Avid run any course covering this? I have not found any with a Google search, but maybe I have not looked enough!

Have you had a look here? There might possibly be someone suitable.
(Results after googling for about 5 minutes. Some might be useless for your purpose, of course.)

But it would just be luck if they use all the other software besides Sibelius that you have. on the other hand, they might know someone who does.
Quite pricey, some of these tutors!

Thanks Neil, I will search through these and see if I can find anyone suitable. I think the main problem will be the specialised software set I need help with...but who knows; nothing ventured, nothing gained!
