FAQ – War Music
Which tempo fits battles versus planning scenes?
Battles sit well around 100–130 BPM with firm drums. Planning scenes feel balanced near 70–100 BPM with lighter pulse.
How do I keep dialogue and SFX clear in action cuts?
Dip the bed 6–9 dB under speech. Ease harsh highs, and leave small gaps before commands and key callouts.
Orchestral or hybrid for a modern military tone?
Orchestral reads timeless and ceremonial. Hybrid adds edge and scale. Blend both when the story shifts from briefing to contact.
What helps loops feel natural in long sequences?
Choose cues with quiet middles and clean bar lines. Loop the center, then return to the original ending for closure.
How do I cut a trailer to 15, 30, or 60 seconds?
Use a short intro, a clear build, and a button end. Land transitions on title cards and unit insignia shots.
Which formats are best for editing and delivery?
Edit with WAV at 44 kHz for safety. Export high-quality MP3 for quick reviews, and keep the WAV for masters.
