Cheers guys i appreciate nice comments. Def a good step in the right direction/now need to follow up with track after track hahahaha
Re getting on beatport - was the label
Re reverbs - SIR2 with the acousticas L300 224  and some rythmninmind 6000 ir's - i love the the acousticas stuff and the lexi sound. I am very keen to try the new 480 ones but seeing as im carving a sound with the others i dont want to change my setup too much so am waiting. - Delays was mixture of mfm2,cubase stock delay and my boss re20 pedal.

Ben | sounds like you're on to something. very nice dense but still open sound (hope that makes sense to you), different than other stuff I've heard recently! thanks for sharing the info.
FWIW digging the Bricasti IRs myself lately - they've thrown the Yardstick ones from first spot.here
Also looking to get a Malekko delay in a while. for more a more solid repeats to complement my line6..

I was struggling to get the sound I wanted and still have a way to go with it but the acousticas really helped. I could not get the sound with algo reverbs like csr breverb etc and can't afford a real 300 or 480 but they are close enough to get much closer to what I was after a d the reverb is a big part of my sound. I'd love an eventide and reckon it would fit lovely in my setup and an api2500. They will come but need wait a year or so till I can afford them

On a side note re reverb - Acousticas very very nicely provided me with the 480 L impulses today
They are really really nice and already i have got a 480 hall in use on a new track as the main Hall send. The sound is def what i was hoping for from them thumbsup.
