Re: ESCAPE - Epic Orchestra (New Flute Section)

Post by k o star » Sat May 02, 2009 2:22 pm

Getting rid of the flutes...I'm gonna be recording Sitars with my Variax 300 today...The Sitar is gonna replace the flutes... I felt the flutes are a little too sweet for my liking after awhile...Not sure what anyone else thinks?Will post up the Sitar version later...

Well, you have come a long way with this piece! Like the changes you've done! The sitar is really cool!! Like it more than the flutes. Is it just me, but I thought it sounded very left panned? MY left speaker sounded more than my right one. I think a little more high end as well would make it more aggressive and bigger.

Track sounds great. Still like the guitar. The sitar rocks, although I wouldn't mind hearing more of it, especially in the last minute or so when we're ready for variety. There's a lot of that string figure; don't think that's a problem, but I do enjoy the break from it at 1:30 when a distant piano plays it for a while. I really like the drum sound in the last 25 seconds, but I thought for a minute about whether it was ahead of the other instruments. Having said all that, it's a fun track just like this.Cheers.

Thank U so much Ceedub for the quick response to my sos...Phew... good to know I didn't destroy it... For the string figure part I'm just gonna add a little variation & add some synths so it won't be so repetitive & Thanks for pointing that out cos I kinda felt that too but wasn't sure if I should continue workin on it, just in case I was on the wrong track... but now I know, so I'l polish this new version up... Appreciate the time =)-Kel
