Very nice Dan. I enjoyed this piece and a +1 on the arrangement. Needless to say (but I will), you should be writing more with X1.

"After 3 years with no writing, I've completed my first song in X1" Feels good doesn't it? :-) I didn't think I had any left in me, and then one just popped out? :-) As Martha Stewart would say, "it's a good thing." I enjoyed your song, and the recording was great. I like the way the Pads played off of the piano, the piano gave me a Bruce Hornsby vibe which is good, like Mandolin Rain? (I'm going to jump from 8.3 Pro to X2, here's to hoping for a soft landing...)

Yes, it does. But I stopped because my old DAW died and there were a few other priorities. Real life gets in the way of creativity sometimes. I bought Sonar Power X1 and it really helped me adjust quickly to X1. Thanks for the kind words on the piano. I must have been thinking of Bruce when I was working on this. Regards, Dan

I quit for about 20 years, just playing coffe houses, etc and got back into recording about 2008. It is a great feeling. I write with Mark Cline now and it is a gas! This did keep me very interested. Instrumentals don't always do that. It built nicely. Do you do all instrumentals or do you write with vocals. Did I tell you I really like this song, instrumentals and mix? Well, I am now!!

Warren,
Thanks for listening! I stopped writing songs with vocals when I learned that I can't sing back when I was 17, ha ha. I only write instrumentals now. I've thought about trying to sing again, but I think my wife would kill me, or think I killed a cat!
Glad you enjoyed the song.
Regards,
Dan
