The mixing is completely wrong. There is no balance between the sounds. The result is a total chaos. Also the sounds are wrong and do not respect the intention of Chopin music.
the mixing is revolutionary. finally we can hear the accompaniment in its full beauty without that distracting melody part that we all know by heart anyway since our childhood. i am sure, these sounds are exactly how chopin had imagined it – he just didn’t have any synths yet and had to accept that boring piano sound for his whole life. hats off!
don’t do it MIDI! Play with hand one by one!
Amazing arrangement! Powerful 😀
you should tweak the filters some more on all the synths at the same time, i dont think there is enough of that
