New track - Shimmer

[Kim Johnsson]

Hi!

Nice track! :-)

For years, I only used reverbs on string sounds to give them a sense of space, but at some point I noticed a delay works really well on a sound with a long attack and a release. Makes it more “alive” than just a reverb, kind of simultaneously fading in and out...

Cheers,

	Kim
