Drones

During one of my performance lessons I was experimenting with the use of drones for effects and background noise on my album. I messed around with feedback loops and different guitar effects on the amp and also with a few pedals.

I plugged my Danelectro DC59 into the Line 6 amp with a multitude of effects on it. then had 4 microphones capturing the sound as well as the DI output.
Two of the microphones were the wall mics in the performance hut and then I used a Shure SM57 close up to the amp and a Sennheiser E606 around 2 foot away.

The drones that I recorded you can hear on the 8th track of my album 'Stargazing'. once I had recorded the drones, in Logic I have manipulated their sound with different effects, reversing some samples and pitching them differently.
