I haven't spent time with Reason in quite some time now. This is the first track I've done this year. The most prominent instrument in this track is Super Audio Cart. It's used for the main lead, bass, pads, kick and snare.
I might go back and make smaller tweaks to the mix and arrangement later on, but this will do for now.

OK, just when I convinced myself I don't need Super Audio Cart....
Really nice track. It does have that mod-tracker feel to it, probably also because of SAC This style is what I like best from what you do, although the quality is always there. It sounds still a bit like a rough mix, but you already mentioned it's not yet ready. Looking forward to the final version.

Thanks
Not really a keyboard player, but I can see why you'd think that as this song is very synth lead heavy. I can do some very basic playing, but not more than that. I'm originally a guitarist. However when I make music in Reason I pretty much programme everything directly in the sequencer.

Thanks. Yes it's definitely tracker-inspired. Mix wise it's a bit tricky with a song like this. Since it is pretty basic sound wise and retro influenced I don't want the production to be too polished with too much modern production techniques. I want some rawness left. But at the same time I don't want it to sound bad of course. Like I said I think I'll leave it for now and maybe revisit after a few months to listen to it again with fresh ears. That's one thing I've learned from my last couple of EP projects, is that it can be quite a good idea to make several songs and finish them as good as you can. And then after all the tracks are written you can go back to see if you want to make any changes. I might do that here as well.crimsonwarlock wrote: ↑25 Feb 2024OK, just when I convinced myself I don't need Super Audio Cart....

Well thats impressive then. And also slightly depressing, because it means I really need to up my Sequencer Game lolTritoneAddiction wrote: ↑25 Feb 2024Thanks

Updated the mix. Mainly I've pushed all the leads/melodies a bit more forward. Essentially that's what this song is about, the leads.
