Breathing life into MIDI drums with pedal effects
St. Vincent breathes life and vibe into MIDI drum patterns by using a creative chain of effects pedals. The Chase Bliss Habit and Hologram Microcosm, which function as both delays and phrase loopers, introduce randomness and chaos, transforming otherwise lifeless drum sounds into vibrant, manipulated, and interesting textures. To enhance the character and aggression of the drums, St. Vincent employs the Walrus Audio Janus for distortion, adding a gritty edge that makes the drums stand out with more personality and intensity.
