this is my most last minute track yet this year. classical guitar ran through 5 mangling vsts so that you can't tell what it was, further altered in postproduction. reaper and live then soundforge

Very nice. Very, very nice.

thanks! I want to do more of these pieces where the classical guitar is slowly revealed more but still with weird stuff going on.

Do it!

Great track with some very nice textures, out of curiosity: which VSTs did you send the guitar through?

yummy textures! i tried a similar thing in last week's song but i didn't manage to get it as drony as your approach! Nicely done!

Nice sounds and textures. I found the track to have a "mysterious" feeling to it. Amazing that you did this with a guitar. Great job!

Totally loving the grainy pulsar texture here. Great as a standalone piece, or as a bed for more weird stuff over the top.

Frightening! Classical guitar you say? Very well mangled indeed. Make me think "Future Factory"

avocado glitch in reaper; glitch 1.3; transverb; then some tonal shaping ones were all ran over my guitar input... it was done pretty hastily and i did not realize that none of the guitar went through except maybe a smidgen of the the timbre and resonance of it. i could hear it acoustically of course quite well so i was rather surprised how it turned out. it was also pretty quiet so i had to booat up the sound a bit which brought out a lotbof the digital textures through saturation and maybe some comprression and of course some subtle eqing.

that is pretty much what i thought about it too. wait is that really a guitar? why does it sound strange yet familiar?
