WHOOT! I successfully figured out how to hook up my microphone to my amplifier through my interface! From there, I got the idea to connect my multi-effects guitar pedal between the mic and the amp. So what came of this? I CAN PUT CRAZY SOUNDING EFFECTS ON MY VOICE! But most importantly, I CAN MAKE VOCAL LOOPS! For those of you who don't know what vocal looping is, it's where you can record (using a loop machine, or the equivalent on a multi-effects pedal) a vocal track, loop it, and keep recording vocal layers on top of it. Not too long ago, I discovered the artist, Kimbra, who is very good at doing this and did so in a cover of Nina Simone's "Plain Gold Ring". In my opinion, the queen of vocal loops is Imogen Heap. This is her playing her song "Just For Now" live. "Escape Artist" is a song by Zoe Keating in which demonstrates looping done with the cello instead of vocals. This is my very first time doing this, so it's not the greatest thing you'll ever hear, but I'm super excited about it and will be practicing so I can showcase this in my presentation :D
