  • KMA Audio Machines Cirrus is a "spatial-temporal modifier" which is a really decorated way of saying it's a reverb and delay pedal. I hope you enjoy the sounds of Cirrus on harp, and I hope you have a HARP-y Halloween!!! 👻🖤
    Thank you, KMA Audio Machines, for sending me this pedal!
    I really enjoyed using KMA's Guardian of the Wurm while creating the short segment pairing it with Cirrus, and I'm looking forward to using it in future videos.
    Curious about how I use effects pedals with my harp?

    This video came at the perfect time when a rest day became an actual living nightmare as my worst depressive thoughts came back to haunt me. I just want to be a reverb tail, softly modulated on a cloudy LFO. For some reason, this spooky season just doesn't feel right...
    Thanks for the video. See you next time.

      It added some high overtones in that first section that were a bit shrill - I didn’t want to take it out in post-production because I wanted to be transparent about how it sounds!! I had a lot of fun with this one though!!! Thanks so much for being here and listening ❤️ ❤️

    You can score a whole 1980's horror movie with this. E.g. First 1:28:
    Helicopter shot. Green K Car wagon driving down an autumnal New England road. Yellow and brown trees scatter their leaves across the road. Opening credits roll in foreground. Car arrives at worn but stately house.
    1:30 - 3:00 - Unpacking montage . Boy and girl child play quietly among the leaves with a dog while the parents move a meagre number of boxes from the car. Existing furniture is all covered with sheets. Woman places picture of the family on the mantle. They are all happy and smiling on a sunny beach. As the final chords fade out, the camera pulls back to show her face - Her expression is sad and wistful. Her hand drops from placing the photo and she turns and walks slowly form the room, shoulders hunched as if defeated.
    You can fill in the rest. ;)

    • @emilyharpist
      @emilyharpist  2 роки тому +1

      This one is definitely intimidating cause of all the knobs and options it offers. I find it takes a little longer to dial in what you’re looking for, cause it’s really not a straightforward pedal like something from EQD, and they really packed this thing with options - even reverb and delay order!! I’m really happy to have inspired you!!! Thanks so much for being here 😊
