Epic Essentials Vol. 01
Twelve cues.
Four parts each.
Each sketch is a single MIDI file in its own numbered folder, with the four parts on separate tracks inside it. One import puts the whole arrangement on your timeline, already split so you can mute a part, replace it or write around it.
This is a driving trailer setup rather than a full orchestra: spiccato strings carry the motion, trombones and horns carry the weight, and a percussion ensemble drives underneath. Four parts is the point, because four parts leave room for your own.
Every sketch is eight bars of 4/4 at 120 BPM, and the tempo and meter are written into the file, so a sketch plays as intended the moment you drop it in. The music starts two or three bars in, after an empty lead-in.
| Part | Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Spiccato strings | C1–F#6 | 321 |
| Trombones | F1–E4 | 38 |
| French horns | D3–D#5 | 54 |
| Percussion ensemble | C2–G4 | 294 |
Ranges cover all twelve sketches; density is the average number of notes a part plays in one sketch. Each sketch also ships a 15-second MP3 preview so you can hear where it goes before you open it. The previews are reference only and are not licensed for release.
Your DAW. Your libraries.
Any DAW
The files are plain type 1 MIDI at 480 PPQ with four named tracks inside. 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. The track names note which libraries the sketches were written against, but any spiccato strings, trombones, horns and percussion ensemble will play them.

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.
The tempo and time signature are written into every file, so a sketch plays at 120 BPM in 4/4 wherever you drop it.
