I like what you have here, but it's not enough, I want more and longer. There's a nice vibe getting going in there, I would like to hear more treble and more punch in the low end, seems to need some eq'ing. Flush this out a bit more and you could have a very cool song. Glad you're still plugging away, it is not easy doing 12 songs in 12 months, I would know.

Hi George, thanks for your input, I agree with what you said it does need more work which I will do this week. I'm trying to work out where to go next. I'm sure it'll come to me. I'm trying to learn about Reason 4 and everything inbetween hehehe, you know just the small subject of studio production. I will get there eventually, I hope! Yeah the bottom end needs fixing, The chord I've used in the bottom end is D,G#,B, which isn't really a chord as such, I tried another on C,E,G, but I haven't really worked at it yet, I'll look at it more closely soon. I also would like to try more arpeggiation with the song and definitely more EQing!

There's a lot of fun, and some interesting results, to be had using arps, I've done it, and really enjoyed the process, and the final product, so get in there and go for it, ya got a very good start.

Hi Stephen, thanks man for your positivety, I will endeavour to delve deep into arps because I really love the way they can just runaway with the sound and take you to places you didn't know existed hehehe. Very Happy

The song was coming along nicely until I did something unexpectedly, it has changed the song for the better, I think, but I'd like to know what I did accidentally! I'm going to check all the parts and see where I went a bit squew whiff. I'll post what I find, if I find anything.
