Pretty song - very nice vocal, and the midi backing sounds very nice.
Well done.

Floyd thanks for your comments and time, on hindsight I should/could have maybe put a wee bit of reverb on the drums.

I am sometimes not too happy with the real track drums they can tend to be a bit too swishy on the cymbals, for want of a better word lol.

Thanks

I can easily hear this in a movie.

An incredible mix, the ketron is working out great for you.

What I really love about this is the vocals--really warm and professional, I can hear the vocal chords, and it's beautiful.

What effects did you use on the vocals? I am fascinated. It sounds like old school analog vocals or a tube mic, nothing is getting squashed.

How did you do it man??

Greg thank you for your comments and time, I do appreciate it.

David was I think referring to the wee bit of lead I put in after the first verse and chorus.


Not the solo opening riff, Any way I do like the opinion of others in all aspects of a song so thank you.

It is a sweet thing indeed. I have to agree about the solo intro - it's out of character and the blue notes are stretching the relationship with the key.
The guitar outro is similarly unrelated to the general feel of the song.
BUT
it's a cool ballad.


Cheers

Robert Thanks for your comments.

The song surprised me as well on the midi sounds and how they turned out.

WONDERFUL song, beautifully sung and arranged. I often find midi is way better for slower ballads as real tracks just can't get to the slower speeds yet.

thanks for your comments, As I have stated in earlier posts I never gave much thought to the wee solo as it was a wee midi experiment, that did go down really well as it turned out.


But as you say I think this one is Done and Dusted, might change it for the up coming video eehh ! maybe not l.o.l.

Thanks again

David Do you use a condenser mike or Dynamic or both ?

I have tried/ had both all makes, I always thought condensers where spacy noisy pick up down stair noise etc.

Dynamics are more direct clean solid, especially when you get the boost they need.

Hello, beatmaster

The intro guitar is wonderful.
This is a very mellow ballad. Sweet melody.
Your vocal is strong and pleasant.
I agree with Ember
This is definitely a good example of what MIDI can do if people want to use it. Great job.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.
