Well first, don't double the samples. I mean the tracks. Or something. Anyway, don't double... As you have done with tracks 01 and 00. If the sample is not loud enough, you can add volume with a sample editor, like Audacity, for example. Oh, and doubling the VSTs does nothing I think, it's still the same volume.
Hmm, I think it needs a quick launch to the actual song. I have a vision of a bassdrum-fill and a booming bass at line 30 in the first pattern, but I guess the bass is enough. The "high-to-low" kick-thingie is a nice idea, but it's overused. Maybe put a real kick after the first tracks and then another with a high pass-filter to filter away the low frequencies. So that the filtered bassdrum could go with that "high-to-low"-thingie...
Hihat's are nice. I would go for a quick launch, as said. |

This song needs a lot of work. First of all i needs bass! So badly. And i don't know about these falling kicks... Also did you know that the theme is almost identical to the song Starchild 2 by Dune?
By this I don't mean to discourage you, work on and you will have at least a decent song in a while. |

Well, i worked on it, and its a little more interesting...but i still need to work on the bass line.
Also renamed it, it is now "Reflected Refractions"

Not really a complete song, so not much to say actually, but I believe that you can work on it and get a good song .
A few tips though:
As the peeps before said to me, don't double the tracks to get higher volume, use the mixer instead, and raise the volume on the current track. If it's too low anyway, lower the rest of the channels instead.
You can also normalize (get the whole sample as close to 0dB (the "roof") as possible) the samples in the sample editor if it's too low.
Another tip is to route the VSTi-instruments to different tracks. Right now you have all VSTi's routed to track 0. If you route them to different tracks you can easily add individual effects (on the track that's chosen), and also control their levels in the mixer.
Also, try to make something out of the intro. Right now it feels like there's three patterns of intro, instead of one, or maybe two. After that one, try to introduce something new and maybe a bit "breathtaking", like a fat bass and fat bassdrum for example.
Keep it up!
