This is a track that I originally recorded in 1998 for my niece's christening. As she's turning 18 later this month I though it was a good choice for a remix with my new Kontakt 5 Library. All coments are welcome, as I want this to be as perfect as possible.
Note: I forgot to fade at the end.
 
Edit: Final mix

This is nice and pleasant. The strings could be wider and louder
 
Nice mix, well done!!!

Very nice Steen...
 
One comment I have would be that the flute you are using seems to have full on vibrato. That isn't naturally how a flute player would play, so for realism, especially in a solo instrument, you need to replicate the way a real flute would be played. Granted, if the only flute you have has vibrato embedded in the sample, you are out of luck.

Thanks a lot. You're right about the strings. I didn't think it sounded so good, so I turned them down a bit, but I should probably work on the sound instead.

Thanks Dan
 
I hear your on the flute. I'm using the flute from the standard Kontakt5 set, but I think I can get less vibrato on it.

Nice tune, I enjoyed it.   
 
The flute and strings comments above have you pretty well covered...  though I'd be tempted to work the drums a little too - a little more punch on the kick and vary the hihats a bit.    Oh, and don't forget the ending.

lovely tune. the differing instrumentation sounds weird. tbh only the acoustic guitar sounds real so i'd concentrate less on varying the lead instrument and on altering the background dynamics.

Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it. That's what it about. I will work on the drums. I should be able to find a better set.

Thanks for listening. Yeah, that'a valid point and I will remember this in my upcoming projects, but for this one I'm pretty set on the changes. Mostly because the melody really doesn't change that much, so I think variation would be good in this case. I would love to hear other views on this.
