uploading bass fx jam to soundcloud

this is actually a bass guitar. it's through a high octave pitch shift guitar effect that i initially programmed as a noisy grunge fill, but the bass takes it down to a more acceptable octave range and, due to the thickness of the strings, allows for the creation of reedy, woody and brassy sounds. then there's that ghastly reverb. dunno what i'll do with this (it may end up in the crash symphony), but it needs gongs and spooky synths and stuff...

as an aside, that means i've isolated the buzz to a frequency issue, as the bass sounds fine when pitch shifted up a bit...
