Had some tonal fun with this one... special thanks to gkgyver for helping solve the mystery of the opening bit.

Enjoy!



If some of the synths sound familiar... that's probably because you heard the exact same synth patches used throughout Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and Dark Knight Rises.

Thanks!

@Shark... well played, as usual. Dark Zebra was used...among other more custom samples.

You just insert it like any other VST instrument and set it up on your midi track of choice as the output.

Zebra is amazing as it is and is the staple goto synth for many big name composers. ZebraHZ is damn cool and essentially "zimmer synths in a box"... theres even patches from Inception. I loved going through all the patches and instantly recognizing wherethey were used in the batman scores. Just know you'll have to tweak them significantly in Zebras robust editor to make them sound unique...these were mde for/by Zimmer for those scores.

Very nice indeed Rich. Think this is my favourite gun-barrel cue from you, I wish SkyFall actual began with this! ;)

What I love about this is the big, fat, brass sound. Just like the late 70/early 80s era John Barry!
