This is a song I originally did in 2014. I decided to redo it with new BIAB DAW plugin. I added the plugin to my Studio One DAW. I must say this was very impressive. When I am playing the song in Studio One The chords are playing in the BIAB window. Very cool. I converted a piano acoustic track with Melodine back to midi which I then used the woodwinds section from the BBC London Symphony plugin. I also added another midi track and add the Violins from the BBC Symp plugin which is free and thanks for the heads up from Floyd. The song was written for my wife and it has been and still is her favorite song of mine.

This is lovely but the fx on the guitar tend to swallow it at times.
Excellent work on the arrangement.
Cheers

Hi Scott,
A beautiful track.
Very delicate and expressive guitar work with some lovely phrasing.
The Purdy and the Eventide work so well together.

Scott,
Beautiful tune. Very special guitar starting at about 2:00. Strings work very well. Enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.

Scott,
Nice. A "haunting" track. Cool sounds throughout. Nice use of the BBC.
Good mix. I thought the main guitar lead should have been a little more centered - not exactly centered, but not so far left...
The ending is a bit "abrupt".
A good listen.

Beautiful playing, good use of strings, chording and melody has nice melancholy - still noble overall feeling, like looking from the view point of a high flying eagle.

Leon Thanks Leon Glad you like the song. Very nice, Scott, you certainly have your own style.
Nice melodic lines, great tone. Thanks Dave. I seem to gravitate toward these sounds. These songs and tones just seem to feel really good when playing them. As well as good hard driving blues/rocker can hit the spot too. Glad you liked the song.

Ethereal? Yes but also captivating in a richly textured manner.
Great guitar chops and a cool tone to deliver them with.
Very nice!

Hi Scott,
That is a nice, sweet song you made then and remake now! It is a bit melancholy. Mis the words...
But there is something with the guitar halfway in the song. Suddenly it only came through from my right ear (phone). Later it went good again. And the end was a bit abrupt. But maybe you did that on purpose?
Thanks,
Hans

Excellent work on the arrangement. Thanks rayc Yes I was experimenting with some sounds on this song. What you are hearing is me trying to reshape the notes with volume swells. Had to increase the guitar volume and then cut it back about 20 with a volume pedal. I started the notes early then brought them in the pedal. Had to watch as it allowed me to increase the sustain but came very close to clipping.

Very laid back feel to this. Ear pleasing and calming. I concur with Floyd about the abruptness of the ending, but that's my only nitpick.

Wow, Scott, that guitar sings so sweetly. I'd like to hear it louder in the mix, and maybe bring the strings down some. As is, it's very enticing, and a wonderful arrangement of the tune. A lot of emotion in the writing, arranging and playing. Loved it. Twice. So far.
