Hi David,

Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it.

Regarding the guitar fills, something I do these days is to look for characteristic licks or fills in a track. I then copy and paste those into appropriate places and try to use them as instrumental hooks. It's something I picked up from a seminar by Steve Webber 18 months or so ago. To my ears, it seems to help polish the mix a bit more.

It's interesting that you mention the strings sound. I wonder if that's because when I think of strings, I tend to hear the more classically sounding strings (Mozart, Haydn, etc) rather than the lush film score sound. I'll have to investigate! As always, you've managed to give me something to think about.

All the best,
Noel
