Wow awesome tune! Made me smile ![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
well that was rather jolly!
i only have two criticisms (damn, if i ever manage to spell that word right, like, ever) - firstly, i would say don't double track the soloing...it's fine for melodies, but i like to hear a bit more "focus" on solos and double tracking (no matter how well done) makes for a bit of fuzziness, which pushes the guitar back in the mix slightly. secondly, i would say i really enjoyed the solo, but it did feel a little bit like a series of disconnected phrases. i would rather have heard something that flowed a little better and made one overall statement. but apart from that, it was really terrific!
You may not be selling anything... But I would buy it. Great tone & song. Kept my interest to the end.
Please include presets if you are so inclined.
Nice job Eric! Reminds me of something from Queensriche. And really good solos too! The only "strange" thing is that the whole song seems a little bit "distant", like played in a very large room. Did you use reverb on final mix?
Anyway, keep on like this!!!

Thanks a lot! Hmm I haven't heard the "distant" thing from anyone else including engineers that have heard the track (they had comments to be sure but nothing like that). Yes there is some reverb, a Sonitus plugin and yes it was applied on the final mix (which is when you would apply it, there wasn't reverb applied again on the final wav file while mastering if that is what you mean), nothing unusual though. It was a "large room" setting I believe so the reflections should have that quality. Same verb patch on all instruments. Very little on the guitars. Thanks for the listen and comments.
Ok, thanks for the answer. I'm not used to apply reverb on final mix but only track by track and not always (for this kind of music): usually the result sounds me a little boxy, not "in your face"... For sure I'm not a pro in mixing/mastering, so don't mind my comment!Anyway, I like your song very much!
Everyone needs to listen to this from 3:00 on. Outstanding.
