the sound of water

I was just hired to play 3 sets of improvised music about water.

I always loved how a phaser at high rate settings aquires this watery quality.
this is what I have come up with so far.

the phaser in front of the amp does the basic 'bubbling', then comes the FAS Clean + 1x10 Gold, a terrific super clean combination.
the delay adds depth and the chorus adds nice whoosh, I like it post delay for this sound. The reverb turns it into an ambient cloud.

as you can see, the output of the compressor (my 'Snap' setting) is also routed around all the above fx, then the dry sound is robbed of all bass,
a few more bubbles are added and the enhancer spreads them out.

the second PEQ takes away some more bass and adds more highs, works beautifully on my Danelectro U2 with both pickups together, but might be a bit too much with a bright Strat.
