Thanks for the comment and for taking the time to listen. You're right about the synths... I just don't seem to have the skill (yet) to get those to come through without sacrificing something else I feel is too important, at least within the time constraints between work and the kids.
I think someone said that pop/clicking noise in the "come to me" parts was called a D/C offset? I'm not really sure what that means, but I think after a week of sweating bullets and nervously plucking my whiskers trying to get everything in balance, it slipped my mind completely! I had considered a very fast fade in to mask the pops, though, so at least my heart was in the right place . The lesson there is to remember to do your clean-up BEFORE you mix, eh? Someone else (I forget who) said something to the effect of "If you have 6 hours to cut down a tree, spend 4 hours sharpening the axe."
Total booger, this track... I would have saved it for when I had a little more skill if I didn't like it so much, but having said that, I learned a LOT by suffering through it. Thanks again Dags.
