Hey all. I just finished my second track with Live7 - check it out at the above URL and let me know what you think. Its a bit more upbeat and danceable then my last tune.

The lead line uses Ableton's new Tension synth, but for the rest of the sounds I created all the waveforms by hand using .ams files, built the synth sounds from scratch, and then added a Live7 Drum Machine kit - although the drums are a bit basic here as there's a lot of other stuff going on.

Enjoy,
Ross

nice stuff. original.
I would try rolling back the track delay by a good 20ms on the piano clip that comes in at about 0:50. Its sounds very late in the beginning but seems to adjust itself towards the end. So maybe automate a simple delay while setting the track delay -100ms; i do this on most tracks most of the time.
nice one.

FYI: My Live7 discs finally arrived yesterday, so I installed the EIC sample library and added a whole new 'acoustic' mid-section to this tune! Check it out at the same link above :-)

Needs something to tighten up that bass drum and hi hats
Sounds a bit woolly.

Maybe im just wrong :)
