Dear Alec,
Congratulations on another fine arrangement. I approach these comments with some caution, for I don’t want to get into an argument since you know so much more about these matters than I do. I felt that the accompaniment on your recording was rather muddy. At first I thought it might be the REAL PLAYER’s doing, but your previous recording have been crystal clear. So, I listened to the Celtic Dance Composer pattern and found that it lacked the open and live quality that your arrangement called for.
Without getting into too much detail, here are the Composer part changes that I think would make your fine recording spectacular.
Bass Picked E. Bass
AC1 Stereo Ac. Guitar
AC2 Same Concert Grand Piano
AC3 Agogo
AC4 Mellow Ensemble
AC5 no voice
DR1 Live Standard
DR2 Live Rock
