    Really nice sounds. Good from lows to highs. I didn't play all the way thru. Some parts just seemed to repeat but the sound and production was spot on so I stayed with it mostly.

    Well all it all seems to be in there, though as I still have have snot putty for a nose I am a little cautious on saying to much.  I think the Chapman Stick could do with just a little more presence in the mix.

    Thanks for sharing Steve production overall sounds very good here.

    Thanks Wookie.
    The stick was louder up until the final pass on the mix where I tucked it in just a bit.
    I'll keep your comment in mind for the next similar situation.

    Everything is startlingly clear. The mix sounds very 3-dimensional. Great job on getting that bass to sit so well.

    Hi Steve,
    Liked the track.  Mix is very clear.
    I agree with Dan's comment about having a 3D quality to it.
    Listening to this on cans at work and the bass translates well here.
    Good job!

    Hi Steve, this is great! Very nice tune and super clean mix. And it also lives up to the title Nice to hear a Chapman stick, too. Excellent work.
