Sometimes you set up parameters to explore, plug in, and see what happens. Sometimes it feels pretty good, and it goes places that surprise you.

This piece is an improvisation for electric autoharp and two square-wave-modulated delays in my digital audio workstation (Presonus Studio One). Long ago, I was inspired by the recordings of guitarist Henry Kaiser, who used this technique extensively and wrote about it in Guitar Player magazine. I was a recording engineer at the time and had access to studios equipped some of the very expensive gear that would produce this effect, and I would often try it myself after work was over. It was a delightful thing to play with, and I missed having it available after I went on to "civilian" life. Fortunately, I've lived long enough to find I could re-create this effect on a DAW that cost me all of $50.

I won't go into a description of how square-wave modulation works...but here's Henry Kaiser explaining it pretty thoroughly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbJFlX_L6To&t=514s
