Nice production Andreas. I noticed that you're only getting once channel of Harmony Engine. I don't know if you purposly did this or are unaware that Ableton doesn't support multi-channel audio output. You can use this work around to get Multi-Channel to work in Ableton and get 4 part harmonies. I think the quality of the harmonies will be much better using this work around.

---------------------------

Create 3 new audio tracks by going to the toolbar and clicking Create->Insert Audio Track (or CTRL+T) twice. Now locate the audio In/Out Section either in the Session View or Arrangement View (if you are unable to locate this section, make sure you click on "I-O" near the far right and center of the screen). Change the Audio From option from "Ext. In" to the original source channel with the Harmony Engine effect (ie - "Audio 1"). From the drop-down menu right below, change the first and second new audio track options from "Post Mixer" to "3/4 Harmony Engine" and the third and fourth new audio track options to "5/6 Harmony Engine" (see pic).

This will tell Ableton to take the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th output from the original channel and output it to the first new channel while taking the 5th output from the original channel and output it to the second new channel, successfully routing all the channels from the Harmony Engine.

hey i liked it Andreas.
it is quite full!
i kept waiting for a monster synth lead after the
middle part of the song, but its still good without one too.
its about the vocals anyway and theyre great.
the clear lyrics make it super nice for me.
Nice Song!
