Erhu and Vocalization experiment
By Crash Overture on May 17, 2026 5:06 pm
Back from holiday came back feeling pretty revitalized. I discovered after I left Iceland that they have their variant of a fiddle, and I will need to get one sometime. I realized I can't take my Ipad out of airplane mode yet, because I had a show downloaded I want to watch. So no garageband, and I was not doing that on my phone.
Used my phone to record and played with my erhu (the one I got back in February) while vocalizing and then cut it up, slowed it down, layered shit, played with effects, and made this little thing. I do not play ehru well,(still learning) so it's an open D and A with a bunch a noise because singing and playing is something I can't do. But whatever, it was fun and I learned a few things. Also didn't realize I create a high pitch noise sometimes with the erhu during recording which I have no idea how to fix, but now I know and can figure it out. So something to work on while playing and recording.
