Using modern technology, composers no longer need to wait until an orchestra plays their score to hear what their music will actually sound like. Using a computer and suitable software, it's possible for anyone to produce high-quality results that can be used for music CDs, films and TV scores - or even as a basis of a recording session using orchestral players. Many musicians would like to add synthetic orchestral colour to their work but are often left feeling frustrated that their first attempts don't sound very realistic or that the techniques needed will be too difficult to learn.

This book is aimed at those with little or no understanding of music notation and takes the reader through a basic understanding of the principles of orchestration through to tips and techniques to help get the best simulated orchestral performance out of their equipment.
