Talking Plasma - G&L ASAT Improvisation

Here is an improvisation on my G&L ASAT 30th anniversary edition guitar. For this one I just set a metronome to 114bpm and played whatever came to mind. It ended up kind of structured with a rhythm interlude that I was able to remember a few times throughout the song.

Once the clean guitar signal was recorded I added a few different effects via bias fx 2 and guitar rig 6. I did a bit of signal stacking and blending to get a wall of sound during the rhythm portions. For the imrovisation portions I had a dotted eight delay with another reverb signal blended together to get a big ambient sound.

I used a couple different drum sets from ez drummer including a wood hut action drum set and a big rock drum set for the majority of the song. After tapping in the different drum beats in midi on my akai mpk mini I combined the different drum patterns to make the rhythm.

Overall it came out pretty ambient and sort of grungy. I imagined this is what talking plasma might sound like if they tried beaming lasers together to make music. That's all for now, thanks for listening :-) #midimonday #teletuesday #glguitars
