First, congratulations on your purchase. Really nice sound. At the end I was waiting for big drums...

One detail that is very noticable: Cello doesn't just stops playing. Cellists actually slowing down the bow, to make the sound softer before ending the note. Use mod wheel more - to add expression and end long notes more naturally. Overall - very organic and makes me want to listen to it again.

Thank you very much for your replie and input!
Didn’t know that about the Cello and will make sure to use the mod wheel more for that in the future.

Agree with @fleita , but other than that a lovely piece.
I somehow feel like your cello could do with a bit of EQing, just to take the "boom" away from the lower frequencies.

The piece itself is excitement in slow-motion. Giving me strong "Requiem for a Dream" vibes, and that's a compliment!
