RikF Posted March 11, 2023 Author Share Posted March 11, 2023 Hi All, did a revision of this piece.Ā The arpegiated guitar is now doubled and eq'd seperately and one track delayed 10ms, panned hard left and right, Lead guitar is now square in the centre. Reverb is now a send. Have a listen, if you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RikF Posted March 12, 2023 Author Share Posted March 12, 2023 Hi Mark, thanks for listening, glad you like it. At first I just panned the two guitars, I think this sounds better. Rik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy j Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 An absolutely lovely song and some wonderful playing!Ā Love the clear bell tone of the guitar you are using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyB01 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Hi Rik - nice work on theĀ arpeggio (not easy to maintain the tempo) and tone is very nice. DidĀ I detect an alteredĀ tuning or is it tuned to regular pitch? Some of those chord changes put me in mind of shadesĀ of Ant Phillips early solo work (Tregenna Afternoons). Lovely stuff - well played Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RikF Posted March 13, 2023 Author Share Posted March 13, 2023 Hi,Andy, thanks forlistening, glad you like the arpeggiated part.Ā This is in standard tuning but I get why you think it might be an altered tuning, the chords are all triads plus the openĀ high e string for every chord, makes for some nice disonance here and thereĀ š Didn't know Ant Philips, listened to some pieces on youtube, nice stuff.

I've got most of his back catalogue - eclectic would be the word but there are some absolute gems in there - Field of Eternity is a particular favourite of mine.

bjornpdx Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Rik, Very nice and well played.Ā Love that classical guitar sound. I kind of wanted to hear the arpeggio part by itself for a few measures with chord changes. Just a suggestion. I like the title which seems to fit the song well. -Bjorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
