About Gabriel
I’m a film composer from the Dominican Republic and a graduate of Berklee College of Music. I’ve been creating orchestral mockups for years, and it has become one of my favorite parts of the composing process.
My work has included music for short films, documentaries, composition competitions, and other projects. I love exploring orchestral music and finding ways to combine it with different styles, sounds, and creative approaches.
One of the things I enjoy most is seeing other composers improve their workflow and become more confident in their music. I know how rewarding it feels when something that once seemed difficult finally starts to click, and that’s a big part of why I wanted to create this course.
I’m excited to share what I’ve learned over the years and hopefully help you enjoy the process of creating orchestral music as much as I do.

MIDI Programming: Learn practical MIDI programming techniques to create more convincing orchestral dynamics, expression, articulation, and timbre.
Mixing & Final Polish: Learn how to use reverb, volume balancing, and other mixing techniques to bring your mockup together and create a cohesive, polished orchestral sound.
