“Low Bubbly” a New Recording in A, minor scale
Again, I must repeat: I’m not an accomplished guitarist, nor am I an accomplished Line6 JM4 user either. Yet.
But I was having fun with my guitar and the JM4, and I created another very brief recording. I thought, though, that my soloing would be recorded for a longer period, but I guess however long you lay down your first loop is the length of time you can overdub on it. Makes sense to me now.
Anyway, this little recording is a little more mine, in that I added my own little simple chord progression for rhthym. I started with a slower drum track, “Undead.” I then added my own few chords for rhythm - just two string chords, A 5th, B 5th and C 5th; then moved directly down to a F 5th (root on the 5th string), E 5th, D 5th. The rhythm was recorded using an effect from the JM4’s “70’s” style, called “Alright Now”
The solo, don’t laugh, was recorded using the built in effect from Ben Moody, called “Firefight” and it’s a great, psychedelic, ripply, trippy, bubbly effect that sounded really fun on top of the distorted, grungy “Alright Now” rhythm bass line.
The solo was played in the A minor scale. I only recorded 11 seconds - I learned the difference between recording and overdubbing on a loop. I had fun dinkin’ around with it, though.
