mixed up electro style with trance elements and thats my outcome.
found out that the vectron is a wonderful tool for great moving melody stuff.
bassline could need some refrain variation, i know.

But I concentrated more on soundpurity and mixing/arrangement

awesome song. i love the wway u transitioned diff. sounds thoruhgout the piece. how did u achieve such clarity and clean sound? ive been trying to get my music to sound that good but always sounds a little mudgy. thanks
Alon-

hollo,
my general tricks are: (1) only use CW synths and (2) only use creamware FXs. (no VSTs anymore maybe one or two instruments to complement the fat and great CW sound in some cases)

especially the EQs:
for example on the bass sounds I boost the highs a bit so it grabs better through the mix.

(3) don`t overdo with fx! less sometimes is more. no compression in this song.
(4) switch off the chorus on all synths for a more precise acurate sound. add one if its needed. the cw synths sound fat by default, a chorus can make them sound more muddy.

(5) use the highest quality reverb you can get to avoid mud in the mix.
(6) avoid mixing in DAW, dunno if it helps but I use an 16 track asio module and route every audio track for drums solo out into scope mixer for further processing.
all my songs i did natively had a very muddy and harsh sound. now when I run a kick solo channel into scope mixer and add a slight boost in bass area it gets the certain punch in the low end.

thanks for the advise im gonna try implimenting these tips in my next mix
cheers-

this is brilliant! very good work.

Cool track, great mix (to my ears).
I agree with the other comments to date. Why not try changing a few of the bass notes (only one per loop) to discordant notes, to be resolved in the next couple of bars. Might sound interesting and there's space in the composition for a bit of discord and resolution.

Great - I'm on my 3rd listen already

thanks for all the grest comments.

Yeah That's The Ticket,
Unless there are mic'd instruments and vocals, I find that compression is uneeded.

When a mix this raw sounds this good, you can imagine what broadcast apps can do for it, i.e. good underground radio using a nice Fairlight rig. Which BTW uses Creamware FX also.

Which synth did I hear besides Vectron? There had to be some FlexorIII happening 'eh?


Strength And Honor,

you hear the pro odyssey ....

sometimes I even use any of the synths and run it through the great sounding interpole bank with cutoff set to somewhere at 95% and reosnance to about 30% for a bit of fuzz in the top range.

had less time for flexor these days as you know. But mental energy and time seems to come back now.
