How do most people produce them soundtracks?

and while he said soundtracks, they are just songs so i figured he meant the score since he's talkin'about orchestras. I seen the makings of hundreds of movies and researched the subject so it might not be exactly what he's lookin' 4 but it's answered @ least one of his questions. There's a million ways to score a movie, just like regular music, but i still see full orchestras on the special features of many DVDs. Sorry to butt in on other people's conversations tho.
Yes, I am sure. But I see the problem, though... the question
you read (according to what you quoted) was only
half of his question... and not even the relevant part of his question.
His
actual full unedited question was this:

Iam asking because i heard and sample of what the xv-5080 can do and it sounded so much like a OST or sum sort.
...He is asking because he heard a sample of the XV-5080 and it sounds to him like what he hears in movie soundtracks... and he would like to know if, in fact, people do use the XV-5080 (or other orchestral synths/ orchestral sound modules) in film scores, or whether film composers only use real live orchestras.
So, to say whether a composer does a "mock-up score" before recording the actual score has no relevance. Since nobody will ever hear this "mock-up score" and it is not the actual score you hear in the film, any synth sounds or samples used to make this "mock-up" are of no interest because when his question is "this synth sounds like what I hear in film scores, is this synth actually what I am hearing in film scores?" whatever crappy sounds a composer uses in a "mock-up" don't matter.
... it is as relevant as saying "some composers write their scores on paper before the orchestra plays them" or "I like roast beef sandwiches."
And, keep in mind, I am not saying that what you said was not accurate (sure, it is common for a composer to do some sort of mock-up music before recording the final score)... I am only saying it had nothing to do with the question.
