I went for a bit too dry of a sound for my tastes in my submission to Grunt's OST Album Jam 2026 before this one, so I went a tad too overboard with the reverb on these which made the sound a bit too ambient, though I seem to have a preference for this sort of more overtly washed out sound like Jeremy Soule's stuff in Skyrim had 😄
I used the Hollywood Orchestra Gold for most of the orchestra and that only has the Decca tree mic so cant really get any additional bite from the close mics, I have parallel compression+saturation channels for the different instruments with some pretty hard compression on them to use in place of the close mics to give more presence/punch and could've probably had those a bit louder to compensate for the reverb amount.
Been thinking about playing through some Kings Field games since I've played most of the other fromsoftware soul's game's, probably should actually get around the playing one 😁
Glad you liked them!
