Thanks for your comments. I discovered that I could boost the volume by doubling instruments, adding compression on one track that has wild volume fluctuations and then just turning things up. This has been quite a learning experience for me.
Thank you for the compliment glad I could help :)
Just listened to the revised mix and I like how the brass sounds, good work.
You have some cool inner voice leading in the brass that should cut through some more so I would recommend a revisit to ea…
That's much better Debs. You've really grabbed the bull by the horns. I would still bring down the volume on the synth brass though. They're a bit invasive.
Haha! Yes, I've definitely had many sleepless nights in my studio experimenting with both composing and mixing. It is a very enjoyable way to spend time and the hours can very quickly melt away. Sounding much better Deborah, keep punching away at it.

Hi Deborah, I should have dropped by a long time ago to say hi to you. I've enjoyed reading your comments on this forum and it's wonderful to learn from your experiences and knowledge. I'll come back again to take in your music some more. Listening to Elated right now and it's just great! :) Regards, Anne
since the other two are there, it's safe to say that the new one will be too when it's released in November.
In the meantime, as soon as I get a copy of the reference master, I'll post a couple samples on my website
As to the iTunes qquestion, I leave all that to Origin to take care of .If you you see any of the material from the earlier CDs ( Convergence Zone and My Museum ) on the site, chances are the new one will as well.
Hello,thanks for welcome:)and thanks for your nice word you say about my music.Well I also came here on the forum to try to maybe one day find and with this way some people who will going to like this kind of "Balkan beat"and who knows maybe with some composer here i can find close people for work in future on some good songs.Thanks again.I will add some other of my song.Is it your song there on your page?
I wrote it for my girlfriend. I was taking a walk with her and this is what I heard... She is mentally, very busy.
lol
I wrote it verbatim when I got home....
Deborah, you have a wonderful voice. I especially love "Elated".
The arrangement is quite effective and supports your voice quite well.
It was a pleasure to hear your music.
