Hi Francesco,

Thanks for listening, as I remember it was the Saint Jean Baptiste Chapel 17,5m of Altiverb.

You did a very good job, Attila.
I miss some overall high range in the sound, but, you see, it is a matter of taste.
It would be lovely having Dame Janet Baker singing over it.

Very nice! I like it.

Hi Attila,

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed it a lot !  Very well crafted. 

 Only one comment, I tend to agree with Fabio's comment/taste,  I think the mix would benefit from a bit of more highs, that will add more of a color, shine, sparkle to the timbres of the instruments. Everything else sounds wonderful. 

 Questions :  Which VSL Strings are you using here ?  

Cheers,

Hi,

thanks Max, Fabio, Silver and Muziksculp for listening and comments. I think you both right when miss high range. There are some more or less filtering on the instruments, my be this causes cutting of high ranges. I don't sure how to achieve this, with EQ instruments individually or some overall EQ-ing?

The strings are the Vienna SE chamber strings here.

Fabio you mean Dido's Lament with Dame Janet Baker?
