Making an Ambient Track With Chase Bliss Onward - Beautiful Errors


video upload by A Last Picture From Voyager

"Exploring the Chase Bliss Audio Onward Pedal: Embracing Errors in Ambient Music
Join me on a sonic journey as I explore the Chase Bliss Audio Onward pedal — a truly unique effects unit from ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ that invites us to rethink sound through the lens of freeze and imperfection.

In this video, I experiment with its distinctive features across various instruments, weaving ambient soundscapes shaped by creative errors, glitches, and beautiful mistakes.
Through this process, I show how embracing imperfections can open unexpected doors in experimental music composition, and how everyday sounds can be transformed into a rich emotional tapestry.

From subtle warbles to unexpected shifts, the Onward pedal becomes not just a tool, but a collaborator — encouraging exploration and surprise.
Whether you're a musician, sound designer, or just curious about the creative process behind ambient music, I hope this inspires you to find beauty in musical mistakes.
