I had already been searching for a sustained \u201calien war machine\u201d type of sound. Mechanical, sustained, unsettled, intense, and authoritative. This just nailed it.<br><br>\n\nI don\u2019t want to share the whole track yet as this is an original song still in process. But I don\u2019t mind putting a teaser out so people can see an application for the Gizmotron\/Lightwave combo.<br><br>\n\nBy the way, the reason this particular bass was my first choice to get a Gizmotron is because it does not have a magnetic pickup. The Lightwave fretless shines in many areas, however, my eBow is not the most effective tool with this bass (it is worth noting that some of the Lightwave models have a magnetic pickup installed). I also felt the fretless neck would be a great asset if I wanted to replicate string parts with the Gizmotron.<br><br>\n\nI\u2019m doubling hits with the cello parts in the piece. &#x1f608; Add a little spice to those strings. All the drones that you\u2019ll hear are other Gizmotron tracks I had just recorded before I switched the camera on.<br><br>\n\nWhile I\u2019m at it&#8230;huge thanks to Dave Hills (cello) and Oliver Kriska (violin) for being my partners in crime in bringing this track to life. This section is easy, but I wrote some very hard string parts for later on in this piece. They did a lot of work (and continue to do so) to bring this to life.<br><br>\n\n<p><div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Adding grit to string sections with a Gizmotron through distortion pedals\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PHmeOcbluEw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<p><!-- Default Statcounter code for Lady Bass Music\nhttp:\/\/www.ladybassmusic.net --><script type=\"text\/javascript\"><br \/>\nvar sc_project=1496529;<br \/>\nvar sc_invisible=0;<br \/>\nvar sc_security=\"ec215b54\";<br \/>\nvar sc_https=1;<br \/>\nvar scJsHost = \"https:\/\/\";<br \/>\ndocument.write(\"<sc\"+\"ript type='text\/javascript' src='\" +\nscJsHost+\n\"statcounter.com\/counter\/counter.js'><\/script><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today\u2019s Gizmotron\/Lightwave report&#8230;.
