Got the idea for this when the melody just came into my head on night in October 2024 and developed it from there.
This is the 4th project I created using Studio One. Hope you enjoy it.

Good. The only thing I immediately noticed is that the string instruments (violins) sound too harsh. In the context of the song, I would like them to sound much warmer.
So that you understand what I'm talking about, listen to this song of mine, which I also wrote using virtual instruments.

Thanks for your feedback. I assume you mean the solo violin at the intro and the solo section. That is a UVI sample. The ensembles are Session Strings Pro 2. The UVI is kind of hard to control timbre-wise. I know what you mean.

Any sound can be made warmer. After all, there are many plugins for this task now. I have been using Oeksound Soothe for a long time, bought it with a discount. Or ThreeBodyTech SpecCraft, or FabFilter Pro 4EQ. Just remove the annoying sibilants and everything is wonderful and warm.
