CTO - DE Scoring Template - New Release

Dirk Ehlert

Dirk Ehlert
Hey everyone, I'm very excited about our newest release.
This template has been grown/developed over several years 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.
One of the key features for me was, to have a basic sound aesthetic out of the box that works without going too deep into the necessities of additional mixing/tweaking.
While I strongly believe that 90% of “mixing” is more a question of a tracks arrangement and orchestration I still have found a lot of “issues” with sampled instruments and their inherent frequency stacking. Over the years I realized that I had to dial in certain EQ settings again and again to avoid this issue and clean up my mixes.
I am in no way claiming that this template gives you a radio ready result, as a lot of the necessary mixing steps still depend substantially on the actual track you’re writing (style, key, instrumentation etc) but I believe it serves as a solid starting point for a “cleaner” mix out of the box.


Here are some of the key points of what’s included:
- Roughly 500 instrument tracks of my most used / favorite sample libraries preloaded and deactivated.
- Expression Maps for Keyswitch patches where applicable.
- Every single instrument has at minimum an instance of Slate Virtual Mixrack (using VCC Channel for a mixer channel emulation, sometimes other modules like EQ or Compressors as well) and an instance of Fabfilter Pro Q3 with my personal settings to clean up the sound.
- Built In sophisticated STEM MASTERING system, meaning when printing your track to stereo and printing stems, the sum of the stems will be 100% identical to the stereo master.
- Pre-set up Reverb settings per instrument based on my own preferences, easy to adapt to your own sound ideals
- An assortment of little demo projects, all done without additional mixing, they all are just using the sound of the template

Nice template !

One question, for the slate digital plugin, Is it possible to buy the rack individually rather than by subscription?

On their website, it's all with all access


Thx
 
Im not aware as of right now, it was possible in the past. Couldn’t find a single purchase option on the page, best to drop them a message? I’m not affiliated but I have to say that the Slate subscription does offer some insane value with the content included. But I also understand people not willing getting into more subscription systems.
 
Additional info: As written in the description this template uses Berlin Studio for the room reverb setup.
If you don't own Berlin Studio, the purchase of this template now makes you eligible for a 40Eur discount on the regular price for Berlin Studio. Thanks to @Peter Roos for making that possible.
Aforementioned Berlin Studio deal has expired.

On the Slate site there is the option to purchase at the very bottom of a plugin page. You could do a text search in your browser for "BUY NOW".

Prices are way too much for me though, and I don't know of any bundles.

Also available at slightly less cost via PluginDiscounts....

Super. Thanks! Is there a code? How would we get the discount there?
 
For those interested, I'm jumping on a live video now showing the Studio One version of the template.
 
Just a friendly reminder that there are 48 more hours to grab the CTO SCORING TEMPLATE at intro price before it goes to regular price on Feb 01.

Hey Jan, currently I don't have the system capacities to recreate this in Logic (only have a 16GB MBPro)
