ok, off to an interesting start which really could have gone any way, then we end up at the trance table. In enter, yes, the strings... Not much going on originality-vise, however the track has potential to have good energy, if there wouldn't be so many technical misses. I like the switch in pattern 0C from the flowing strings to the chopped up strings.

Instrument 25 is played a bit too loud, it's jumps out of the mix. Try removing one or two of the channels that play that instrument.

In the end, there's some weird bassnote hanging about, which I don't think belongs there. It sounds more like a looping instrument that wasn't terminated.

I think there's too much going on in the same frequency range with the strings, it gets very messy. I'd try to solve this by changing some of the instruments to play one octave lower, or by changing instruments completely. Have something that isn't distorted.

sample quality is variating, but surprisingly enough it's not that audible. Probably because most instruments have so much dist on them, a bit of extra noise can't be heard.

I general, the track could perhaps have used a bit more deep bass. It sounds a bit flat as it's now, with most of the instruments playing in the 500Hz -> range. There are some weird jumps in volume here and there also for various instruments. For instance, at the switch from 0D to 0E, instr. 01 gets a weird boost.

conclusion, a nice track, but not very memorable, and has several technical issues.

Average sound quality, below average mix. Very repetitive and not very original.
