Any comments, good or evil, are good. It's not Rick Astley. Ballad http://www.mikseri.net/artists/?id=59041&displ_lang=en Edit: Back to top

Harmono Group: Members Posts: 759 Joined: May 2005 Posted: April 18 2008, 08:56 Thanks Holger. I have done an arrangement with more instruments and even drums earlier, but it would require someone more skillful   to mix it. With these artificial instruments the timing, tempo and dynamics are too hard to control, so I intensionally kept it as simple as possible. And yes electric guitar would be nice, don't have that either, though. Back to top

I'm not the world's greatest guitarist but I'm pretty sure I could manage this, it doesn't sound like it's going to be particularly difficult. Back to top

Holger Group: Members Posts: 1506 Joined: Feb. 2003 Posted: April 18 2008, 15:22 Alright, I'll have a go then. Back to top

Harmono Group: Members Posts: 759 Joined: May 2005 Posted: May 14 2008, 10:53 Holger has recorded some tasty electric guitar for me. It really brings the track to life. You can listen to the New Ballad here. The guitar starts at the second half of the piece so be patient, I'm sure it's worth it.   Back to top
