    The mix translates well here in my studio control room, not convinced about the lead voice, but that is probably my furry ears.
     
    Playing sounds accomplished and all the elements sound balanced.
     
    Thanks for sharing.

    I think the Triton may be cutting through a bit much here.  Maybe something a little softer-edged?  Or possibly back it off in the mix a little.  The bed tracks sound fantastic!

    The lead synth reminds me a little of the Moog sounds that Wendy Carlos made famous in the late 60's.  I have a Triton, too, and I've used this voice numerous times in the last ten years.  I don't mind it being upfront because the bed of the sound is strong enough to support it.  Way cool.

    All the best,
    Lynn

    Seem to all fit together nicely on my headphones and balances out nice as well. Nice synth playing and a good sound all around. Nice bed tracks as already spoken. Interesting arrangement. Nicely done.
     
    Peace and blessings, John
