You wouldn't even need all members of the symphony to be able to create like that, really just a composer who knows the tech, or a good collaborator. There are already plenty of people with the talent for it, so maybe the idea just needs to reach the right people. Could be anyone from Serj Tankian to Zedd to Danny Elfman to Trent Reznor to Hans Zimmer...

Jason Lieberman Film-scoring for sure, but I think there is room for more performers that compose and arrange in a transcending way too, still being melodical and not too experimental. An example is the 70’s group Ekseption.

You're totally right about the lack of electronic string (violin) players. One of the reasons I was drawn to your music was due to how you incorporated the violin into it! So beautiful 😍

the strings an finger board gives it a bit of an H&K XM8 feel while the shoulder rest and the profile fin under the fingerboard makes it look a bit like a futuristic Tommy gun.

I think it’s really cool how you’ve setup your signal chain. Something we guitarists have been tweaking for decades, our pedalboards are a source of almost insanity, a constantly shifting and changing soundscape. It’d be cool if we could get a chamber strings orchestra pulling off some killer electrified and synthesized music

I came right after listening to your music from the KZread library. Thanks for providing good music :D

THIS IS IT. This is what I've been searching for for years. Something that could make my cello sound like some crazy cosmic catastrophe while still being able to play comfortably. Thank you for being so in depth and informative about something that barely anybody seems to do.

Thanks for the complete sound design walk through. Showing the tone building process and then demonstrating how your tone fits in a mix really hit home with me. I use to play electric/processed trombone in a Seattle jazz-rock fusion band and being able to cut through the mix when soloing always seemed to be a work progress. Your video makes it clear that all working musicians today have to have production chops. Kudos!

I just love this. Love your sound. The way you incorporate the violin in your music really makes it stand out and gives it a different vibe and atmosphere than just using synths. Pure genious.

I grew up with Jean-Luc Ponty in my ears, so I appreciate a lot the integration of the violin in your electro compositions.

The pitch shifting down with the distortion actually sounds soooo cool! I think you should try using just the violin dry signal with the distortion! Could make some sinister cinematic tones that have that characteristic violin timbre 😈

I was just about to say that her playing reminded me of Fripp's technique. Fripp tends to do a lot of sliding and glissando on his guitar playing.

I'm an electric guitar player, and a producer. and this came into my feed. This is fascinating to me, I had no idea an electric violin even existed. There is a company of guitars called 'Godin'. They are a higher end Canadian company. They make a line of guitars that use a piezo pickup on each string. (similar to how I imagine the Eviolin works) With the piezo pickup, they have a "13 pin output", and a regular output. What this is isn't important. I dont know myself. But what I do know is that the output of the 13 pin connector can be sent into a midi converter, and then sent Into something that accepts midi like a physical synthesizer, or even a DAW, where you can use a free Virtual instrument to control anything, whether it's a virtual synthesizer or a sampler or even chromatic recordings loaded into a sampler. Basically, if this type of violin existed, where it had a piezo pickup on each string, and a 13 pin output, with some extra equipment you could even control vocal samples on your computer with your violin. Or anything really. A vocal sample was just a fun idea (you play C4 for example, and it will play a recording of you saying something until you stop "strumming" the string) This would be fascinating. I will be listening to your music. You have piqued my interest

What you talk about is nothing more than advanced home-Casio. It's a midi / synth violin you see in the video. She showed a synth "voice" of some sorts. My home-Casio is on an iPad mini. To play synth/midi violin I find a piano in there to do it. My electrical guitar also plug into the iPad but works like a wave recording or similar to a microphone. Putting midi there serves no purpose with the other midi instruments and would end up like auto-tune work instead of playing guitar.

I probably would have stayed with the violin as a kid if I had known where it could end up. Love the sounds you get out of yours!

Oh wow killer tones! Guitar is my main instrument; now I have to dig into my vast pedal collection and attempt to imitate some of the sounds you were shredding with. 🙌🔥🤘

yooo the way I was rocking out to the ending is insane 💕💕

Love your way of creativity

This is INCREDIBLE love your setup

Sounds great, especially the short jam at the end where you can here the violin in context. Nice!

Thoroughly enjoyed this video👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Wow! Integrating violin in electronic music, that resonated with me, as that's what even I'm trying to do. And thank you soo much for this video. Love you❤️

Awesome tone. Your presentation is amazing, lovable and confident, it translates in instant charisma 👏👏👏

Oh my God. How have I missed this? Brilliant!

10:02 is the coolest sound ever! Please tell me you're making a song out of that!

Your setup is sonically goals

10:22 sounds kind of like a Black Sabbath riff

ugh i love this so much

I love finding people with minds like yours. Inspiring ^_^

You get some great sounds. Well done!

I love how much you love this stuff. I am also a player and have very similar feelings. Thanks for laying it out there.

The sauce indeed. Such a dope video!

I had to sub just off the solo faces you make 😆 Your performance style is highly authentic!!

thank you so much for all this insight. would love to see you do a pedal video on the iron horse.

This is sooo dope. I'm a keyboard player and there are plenty of examples of doing a sick solo on a keyboard with a pitch wheel and all kinds of tricks, but I had no idea you could do the same thing on violin. I didn't even know that electronic violins were a thing you could buy (some electronic instruments are very niche). I really like that since you don't have frets you can slide up and down, so when you're doing a solo it sounds more natural than a pitch wheel. Very cool, keep it up.

Holy Crap ... great tone! And niiiice playin

Really interesting setup! I heard about some of these pedals for the first time and especially the Organelle by Critter & Guitari is very fascinating.

love this ! there is so much gatekeeping towards electric violin and other electric classical instruments, this video is really inspiring !

Sick pedal choices. I love Empress Effects

I love your comment about the echo system being the "sauciest" 😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Saucy lead tones indeed!!!

This was so informative! I would very much like to hear about the other pedals you use with your electric violin.

This has completely changed my understanding of synths and strings. That lead tone at 7:13 is sick! Defo gonna experiment with this in a heavier genre setting

As a violinist who loves chiptune music, you just filled my entire christmas wishlist.

You are so fun to watch 😀

VERY Talented! Thanks.

This sounds awsome :-)

i clicked this video cause i saw all the pedals and this is easily one of the coolest thing i have ever seen

dang that's really creative

Love it!! As for unconventional instruments to use pedals..I play a trumpet (using a piezoelectric mouthpiece) through pedals, and the sounds are so unique..also the performance techniques of playing these sounds with a trumpet add that certain texture to the timbre....much like playing your violin with that electric guitar sound, there’s still a unique character as opposed to the traditional electric guitar.

Just discovered your channel, looooove your style. I'm a big fan of pedal effects, wah, harmonizers, synth-bass, but on sax. You're totally inspiring 👍🤟🌈✨

Such a good video!! And pulled so many stank faces oh my god 😵

Bad Snacks, you are awesome! You mentioned that you could make your violin sound like an electric guitar. Yes, but a fretless one like a slide or lap steel. With your bow, you can sustain notes even better than a lap steel. So young and already so talented and mature.

Hey Bad Snacks! I've been using some of your awesome music in some of my videos, thank you so much for being on KZread Audio Library, subbing rn!

WOW, increible el sonido que podes crear con un Violin, me encanta, te felicito tocas muy bien.

I'm not sure if you've checked out ORAC on the organelle but you can setup a module that converts audio to midi and then use that with any of the synths available for ORAC, which includes a bunch of really cool synths and even replicas of mutable instruments modules. Definitely opens up the gate for you to be able to make literally any monophonic sound, since ORAC can also add multiple effects on top of your signal, so you could turn your violin into a moog base sound and then run it through a delay, flanger, and reverb all on the organelle.

I just stumbled onto your video after watching Sierra Ferral vids.. BUT, I aint even hear a note yet but, love your tude and creative flair.....plus you iz aweful purdy and thats all a compliment!!
