I forgot to name this post

Mirror is a plugin which faffs with the reported latency to a DAW to do reverse effects. I dunno if it's actually that useful, I think most DAWs have something like a macro which bliermergates files in reverse in a way that the process is more straightforward than it used to.

I'd like to groove you to Auburn Sounds -- I've been playing with their autotune-like plugin Grallion. Which is free, actually. Or, you can buy an upgrade it actually. But I've been using the free version as a VST2 plugin in OBS to autotune my very out-of-tune cello. As a live performance device. 

And it totally works. Probably terrible for actually learning to play cello though. I do want fret lines on this thing. 

Cello end with guitar tuners stuck where the pegs used to go.

Anywhoo it's kinda interesting that they use the Dplug open-source framework for developing. This intrigues me. 

I sent in my changes to my thesis today. We'll see if/how many are accepted. My brain is basically a puddle of mush.

Starting a cello

 I've had a bunch of setbacks in making an electric cello. So now I have won a bid on a broken, cheap electric cello.

It's a Celio electric cello. 

I do hate the traditional tuning pegs on, well, all string instruments. 

Magic hour bananas.


But I figured I'd get one.

It's missing the D fine tuner. 

So I'll start with it, maybe do some mods. Well, obviously I'll have to mod it. I'm not sure what the deal with the bridge is. We'll see when I take delivery. $80.95 with tax and shipping.
