When Everything Fades Away

[V0RT3X]

"Sometimes the end can be both beautiful and haunting at the same time. It's like a million feelings all wrapped together in a split second and then poof all that's left is the beautiful embrace of nothing and it's all over. "

Tools Used
- Synthmaster (awesome new synthesizer i purchased even though its a bit temperamental and a CPU hog)
- Ableton The Glue used very very slightly to apply very minimal bus compression
- Geist (I used a 9O9 kit as a modulation source and then ran it into numerous sends with various FX chains)
- Spectrumworx (lots of spectral madness going on, especially on the drums)

(Mixed on KRK KNS-8400 headphones)
"I mixed this with only my KRK KNS-8400 headphones. I also tweaked a few things and ran the master through a instance of U-he Satin using a custom 15ips vintage studio tape setting."

(Mixed on small cheap consumer sony speakers)
"I ended up mixing this entire track on a pair of cheap sony speakers so expect it to sound really muddy."

I need to buy a good pair of monitors eventually..

[Thought Experiment]

Sounds good to me, don't think I would have been able to tell it was a headphone mix if you hadn't mentioned it
