Actually it sounds like Old English Folk Music. Great soundtrack for a Movie set in Robin Hood times.

Interesting. The beauty of the Kronos, is there are plenty of sounds and effects available to create any genre, especially with the availability of really good additional downloadable programs/combis available free and otherwise. So it's easy to go from genre to genre without feeling that we're missing something. That's a great feeling. Hal

Thats true Hal. I always think that the Kronos gives you all the colours you could ever need to fill in your sketches and give them what ever life you choose.

I think that solves it. That fits in with some of the advice I've been given on this, which is, you don't always have to describe a genre. Thanks. Hal

I actually prefer the "less reverb" approach. I find that it gives you a much more reallistic sound in that you get to hear the music and not get lost in a wash of ambience. Unless of course that's the effect the composer really wanted. Reverb is often used to give the illusion of space and like a lot of things, at first it seems like a lot is good, But after a little while, oh oh!

As for the genre, I would have to call it "folktronica'!
Feel free to use the name!

Jeremy, are you saying that my original reverb level is too much, or that it would be too much if I added more, as was also suggested? And thanks for the new genre classification.

More would be too much. I think that you are pretty much maxed out reverb wise. It suits the music though and I do have to say that I like your tune.

Reverb gives you the illusion of space; a big hall as opposed to a small room. However an outdoor feel is pretty much reverbless. No walls for the sound to bounce off of.

It's all a matter of taste I guess but my taste tends to run towards a dry approach. I wasn't always of this mind however. I used to love the big reverby sounds of the 80's.

Enjoyed listening to this track. Very effective use of set list switching with a foot pedal. (Makes me realize I need to get a foot pedal!)

Thanks. Glad this gave you the idea. It's definitely more comfortable having your hands free to focus on the keys as much as possible. Otherwise, something's gotta give in the playing.

yeah, I have to control myself sometimes, with the amount of reverb and the amount of bass. I've always loved both effects but it can become saturated. I'm interpreting your comment as having reached the limit without exceeding it. Hopefully. Thanks for the perspective.
