Call of the Bayou

Been very busy with client work lately so I'm once again semi-scrambling for a WB entry. I was inspired by Red Means Recording's recent video about experiments with the Microphonic Soundbox, particularly the multi-band split experiment (https://youtu.be/U_7jpUYRKI8?si=a6-XVCs … &t=210). In Bitwig it's very easy to do multiband effects with its Multi-FX 3 container device that lets you put any plugins you want into 3 split bands. Although for this piece I used a similar plugin called Crossover that lets you split up to 5 bands (find Crossover in this bundle of plugins https://github.com/robbert-vdh/nih-plug)
I put a bunch of effects like resonators, delays, and reverbs, especially using my new favorite echo/verb plugin, Lair by AberrantDSP (https://aberrantdsp.com/plugins/lair/), and I started experimenting with running my Daxophone through it. I used the same Crossover chain and ran my homemade 4-string cigar box guitar through it for some dreamy pads.
Overall I had fun! I'm definitely going to revisit this idea soon!
