Thanks for listening, that's a great idea and exactly what I'm going for with this one.

thanks for al the good words, appreciate it. I tend to agree it was a bit much, I'm uploading a slightly "thinned out" version right now.
"What are you using for reverb?"
It's homebrew using the freeverb source code as a guide.

Thanks for the in depth reply.
the acoustic is been frown eq'd and compressed. I wanted to get as much voolume out of it at the start but leave it somewhere where it wouldn't dominate the mix towards the end without enveloping the track. What it really needs is a better job tracking it. I had backed off from a condensor (B1) for the dry channelge to try and give it some ambience. That lef tme with a so so track to work with. My acoustic tracking skills are next to none in the first place anyhow. Good suggestions, I may give that a whirl.
"I would have liked to hear the vocal coming back in for a verse/chorus at the end."
I think the original version I did wayyy back had some vocal stuff in the last third, hmmm...
edt: oh yeah, I've tried to smooth out the tail on the vox a bit. It's not a big point for me, but I efinately hear what you're saying.

I agree with the vocal, too much shrill presence, I've thinned it out a bit and dropped the lvel of the recorder solo a bit.
I think this was tracked through my behringer 892a (whatever it's called, the cheap one). vocal and acoustic mic'd with a SP B1, electric with an SM57.
Thanks for checking it out.

bless you!
that's really close to what I was after. I hear what you're saying tho. Sequencing rythym is like pulling teeth for me. I've got this to a state where nothing bugs me and it's doing a couple of interesting things, so it's a sleeping dog right now. I'm not sure where I'll take it, a bit more "square" drumming here and there may create a ghost presence of a beat, hmmm...
Thanks man!
