What I Like About It

1. I’ve used this patch before, but I love the subtle ringing aftertouch.
2. The harmony is in descending seventh chords, diatonic to Db (DbM7, Cm7b5, Bbm7, Ab7), making it easy to transition from rich openness to clustering tension with the movement of just a couple of notes.
3. The low notes contrast the highs, but not overbearingly.
4. Transitions are subtle and always shifting.

What I Don’t Like About It

1. A few of the notes are a little bit heavy and stick out too much.
2. I should have done more with effects processing and the mod pad.

Note: These are rough drafts. Constructive criticism is welcomed, of course.
