Nirvana - On a Plain

Thingamagig = FOSS guitar karaoke (with lights)
No pedals. No amps. No knobs. No presets. No cost. Any guitar.

Session: https://github.com/cyrusadkisson/thingamagig-nirvana-on_a_plain

Notes:

  1. All effects are applied in real-time. Doubling, harmonies, etc. There is no post-processing here, which is what makes Thingamagig awesome (IMO)
  2. Dear god this took forever. Making my vocals sound non-painful is like rocket science. But this video needed vocals bc of the auto-harmonies involved and the fact that the song is kinda boring without them.
  3. There is a fade-out at the end, leaving the vocals in solo. That end part should really have a harmony to it, which I may add to the session later.
  4. This session should really use a stratocaster but mine is currently downtuned a half-step and I didn’t feel like changing it.
