It's well short, my friend.
Did you play that background-guitars as well? Did you continue working on that? (Please paste new file!) You're fucking fast, aren't you? Let us hear more (longer) if possible!

And what a coincidence! Sandro just exposed his Ave Maria!

Come on, let's hear more!

Coincidence indeed. Ave Maria is the other tune I have been taking an interest in over the last couple of weeks.



I would add some more weight in the lower end of the spectrum ... so's that gread guitar-playing of yours has gos a more enveloping 'bed' of bass in which to sit.

If you want to keep your lead guitar at it's present volume, then try doing a copy of your rhythm guitar track and play them far left and far right with a tiny bit of delay, so that they stay away from the centre stage ... at the moment they are kind of queueing up behind your lead and pushing it too far forward.

I'd make the kick drum a lot louder .... I like the tones and the mixing of the drums ... but tht kick could do with being a bit more prominent .... this is to do with getting your lead and guitars that bed of bass.

Tonality .... Are your guitars jostling for the same bit frequency ... have a go at cutting out a bit of tonal space for that lead guitar. Did you do a bustantial bass rolloff for the guitars ... so's to give room for the lower tones of your bass and drums?





Please think of these as suggestions to explore and play around with. I'm only too well aware of the following

1:I have never worked with Pulsar yet.

2: My comments are kind of consistent in their message and at worst, they might be pointing to the quality of my speakers rather than how you have been doing your mixing!



Aside from doing my best to be, i hope, useful in my feedback, given that you have been good enough to share your work, I'd like to mention that I enjoyed it a lot. I am a guitarist myself, and I have been working on developing a technique based on distorted rock and ... AND classical violin playing! So what you are doing is exactly the kind of stuff that especially interests me. It's great to hear someone who plays good stuff well.

Best wishes

thank you for your interest (expecially zenda! i'll try to change something in the mix)
you are right, the piece is very short, but this is all the partiture i've found for this caprice (i don't own any registration of this, i just found the notes and began playing!)... i hope i will find something more like this, i had a lot of fun in playing and recording!
thanks again!
