I was playing around with a patch I put together to emulate the sound of the "crystals" patch on some expensive Eventide effects units.

In my exploring I ended up coming up with a totally different sound that basically is the patch Allan Holdsworth used on his track "house
of mirrors" on his "hard hat area" release. Basically it's an Eventide H3000 patch - the one from the album has more animation to the
sound, the VG is a lot smoother due to the swankier DSPs inside.

Then I figured out "I wonder if I could add bass to the E and A strings and then play live with the bass and chords together?"

See:

I did. I got out a drum loop and jammed over it and was done in 5 minutes (kinda obvious chord progression IMO) and then I
added a lead track over the top. The bass and "synth" is all guitar played live. Then for the lead:

I pretty much duplicated the lead tone I get from my Mesa rack. I know you're thinking "why emulate the sound of something you already have?"
Because the VG weighs less than a laptop and my TC+Vortex+GSharp+rack case weighs at least 50 pounds. I'd be more inclined to take the VG
with me than my huge rack of processors.

Total time to create: under 10 minutes exactly.

long download but worth the effort. very cool, T, as always.

Not sure it was really an "asb track" but more of a demo of some patches I made.

The main part of the song was all done live with no keyboards or anything.

But yeah, the big one that I said I was going to drop before this site goes down goes under codename 332.
Most of my "fans" will totally be abandoning me after that one!
