Thanks for the listen and comments Tom! Glad to hear you enjoyed the piece!

The piano is the feature and it's perfect, a balance between the woodyness and the clarity of tone. Was that a Quantum Leap piano, or which? Sounded great. How did you reverb it?

 
Keyscape...a truly great piano tone there.

Those big drums are really well panned, lots of natural movement going on. Killer.

 
And no midi loops. Every note was played by me. I will say that S1 handles midi recording a bit tighter than Sonar did. I found that I didn't need to quantize nearly as much and I think that adds a lot of natural breathing to the drums.

I would be very tempted to find a way in this excellent balance to feature a moment for the bass guitar, maybe a fretless bass, a run of some type. You have the bass going on with some very tasteful figures in the first minute, then it's in the pocket for the rest of the piece.  If anything is coming up on the light end with this, it's the bass. But let's face it, more bass = less headroom for everything else, so really I wouldn't screw with it too much.

 
What you are hearing is the 7th (!) mix. Tried more bass and other bass elements and it just didn't work as well. Adding a bass pad here and there may have helped, but I'd already spent too long on this project and wanted to be done, lol.

That was a very cool and subtle delay on the violin!

 
Waves H-Delay! My favorite...

I listened several times and it got better each time. Marvellous job.



Thanks again!

Dan, 
 
Great separation and clarity. Nice melodies..... you really know how to shape moods with sounds which is a "sense" that's really a gift from above that you have worked and refined over the years.  
 
Are you gonna press on with Studio One for most of your projects or are you going back to Sonar?

Thank you Craig!  I really appreciate your comments!
 
I'll likely stick with S1 for now, mostly because I've got it setup to work the way I want and I have not has a single issue with it. I miss a few things from Sonar, but the more I use S1, the less that happens.
