Discovering New Worlds Vol. 01
Twelve openings.
Harp, glockenspiel and air.
Twelve wonder cues written out as MIDI, five to eleven parts each, all at 118 BPM in 4/4. A harp and a glockenspiel over tremolo strings, with flute, oboe and bassoon carrying the line. Eight bars each, written to open a scene rather than close one.

Discovering New Worlds Vol. 01
Twelve openings.
One tempo, one palette.
This is the most consistent box in the category. Every sketch is eight bars at 118 BPM in 4/4, and the whole box is built from eleven parts, so the twelve sketches are twelve arrangements of one small ensemble rather than twelve different setups.
Harp and glockenspiel carry almost every one. Under them sit first and second violins, violas and a combined cello and bass line, all tremolo, with string harmonics for height. Flute, oboe and bassoon take the melody, and a piano fills where the harp steps back.
One tempo across twelve sketches means they cut together. Drop two of them on a timeline and they line up without a tempo map, which is the point of a box written this way.

Leading parts are the three carrying the most notes in that sketch. This box is clean: every file starts at bar 1, ends at the last note and carries no empty bars at either end. Each sketch ships a 22-second MP3 preview; the previews are reference only and are not licensed for release.
Your DAW. Your libraries.
Any DAW
The files are plain type 1 MIDI with every part on its own named track. Drag one onto your timeline in Cubase, Logic, Studio One, Reaper, Ableton or anything else that reads MIDI. There is no installer, no sampler to buy and no licence to activate.
Any library
The parts carry notes and velocities, not keyswitches, so nothing is tied to one developer. Eleven parts is a small enough ensemble that a single orchestral library covers the whole box, and the tremolo strings and harmonics are the only articulations you need to find.

Ready for commercial projects.
Use the MIDI in your own personal and commercial music. Reselling or redistributing the MIDI in any form is prohibited. Read the license.
Every sketch carries 118 BPM and a 4/4 time signature, so they play as intended wherever you drop them and line up with each other on one timeline.
