Sad Goodbye (new version 3.10.11)

Nice Herb Nice, very pleasant good to hear a little chilled from your finger tips.
 
Little bit of noise at the end might need some attention
 
Oh! and

Wookie.... at the end, that noise is an instrument we use on this planet called a fiddle, some do perceive it to be noise.   

 There is some things in there that I hear, clicks or something very fleeting, that might be guitar noises, or maybe soundclick.... I just listened on my computer speakers from SC and I thought I heard noise in there but it's not on my IPod version. Might be the conversion on SC.... later tonight I'll likely be on the lappy so I'll have a go at it on SC from there.


Warren, yeah when the french horn and steel come in the piano gets a bump in volume. Very good ears .

I liked it Herb, but it's crying out for words really... The acoustic guitar in my right ear sounds a little thin, like your HPF is maybe a little too sever. Pretty song.

Herb,
Absolutely beautiful and relaxing! Those guitars sound so nice!!!........And the rest does too!!!!!! 

I liked it Herb, but it's crying out for words really...

+1


Somewhere in the night.

cool herb!

Mmmm.  That's all good from where I sit.  Nice work - it all just fits.  

+1 to what Robby said re a vox line, though ...

I'm in a relaxed mood today (the spring starts to show over here) and this fitted my mood perfectly!

Vocals would be nice but this would work great as a soundtrack tune for a movie as it is!

Really enjoyed this one Herb. The stereo separation of all the guitars really gives this one space. I agree with robby that the right acoustic may be too much early on, but once the instrumentation comes in it fits nicely.

Well done.

Sounds great!  Really like the slide guitar and fiddle.  A cross between country and new age.  Piano is abit loud.  It needs to be more ambient.

Nice mellow guitars.  Good sound.

i thought i had left a comment on this one..im sorry,,great work as always..i really like the melodic guitar parts..you are by no means a guitarhacker.it almost reminds me of alice nchains(one of my favorite bands)like their mellow stuff...not that it sounds like their songs..its in the same wave...and i love that wave..and you acoustic guitar sounds premo..also a great mix..as far as anything id do better...i got nothing..sounds radio ready dude..id give it 7.5..almost an 8 out of 10 starz..its really relaxing..i know how cridical you are when reviewing other peoles songs in this forum,so when you listen to mine i was exspecting a load..you were very fair to me...im not being fair to you because you were to me...im being honest...great job..this one will go on my favorites list.

your a good guy man.i enjoy the critical reviews.how else we going to get better right.i enjoyed your music.last night i set it up and minimzed it so i could post and listen.some great tunes.our styles arent to far off from each others believe it or not.i just happen to post this heavey song because it was the first one i completed.but i enjoy your work very much

OK.... I have a new version up...with a few tweeks.    Here

The tweeks:

I rounded off the highs and enveloped a few of the louder passages on the fingerpicked guitar

Lowered the bass a few db.

removed by envelope the 2 acoustics where the french horn comes in, and left the FP AG out for the rest of the song. I think the song sounds cleaner w/o it.

at the end of the french horn, just a stumming AG comes back in more to the center.

edited the last clean guitar solo to remove a click in one of the notes.

edited the guitars up front to remove clicks and other noise from the guitars.

edited the piano part at the end.

Beagle: I'm on guitars, I also played the french horn part which started as a string part but I didn't like the strings. I also played/edited the piano parts quite a bit.... the starting point on them was very midi and stiff sounding. I used staff view quite a bit to edit the track in midi.

New mix
