When I started playing percussion all the way back in 4th grade, the flexatone was the coolest thing to use in our class. Too bad the second a non-band student got their hands on it they would immediately snap it.

@@AragornAnimations Go on, what is the natural habitat of the flex-a-tone? Variations for Orchestra Op.31 or The Race of Life? The Zeitgeist knows it from GTA San Andreas or the Simpsons theme, so which one is yours?
why do percussion instruments always have the coolest or lamest names ever? like, someone named an instrument a drum, and that got super popular, but a flexatone didnt? there’s probably an instrument out there called the “fluxinator nutsack destroyer child rearer bomb 3000” that we’ve never heard of before
Well I learned something new, I had absolutely no idea they actually have something to make that sound. I totally thought it'd be done on a synthesizer.
@venbrou You're right never heard of a waterphone. So I just looked it up and you're right I instantly recognized it. Now I know how they make those creepy noises, thanks
Honestly your not far off and you can simulate "similar" effects with more conventional metal percussion instruments. But the flexatone can go for days making that clear warble. Only thing more fun to dig out the perc cabinet is a slap stick and that's because you get to pretend to beat freshmen with it...ah good times
I always enjoy random percussion instruments nobody knows the name of but immediately recognizes the sounds they make. They always look like insane and esoteric measuring tools created by Doofphenshmerf.
some of the most infamous sound effects in the world are made by insanely creative processes. like the blaster sounds in star wars was george and the crew smacking big metal rods together
Reminds me of the time a bunch of American EDM composers were trying to figure out how Netherlands group Noisia made the grimey whine noise at the end of their song Diplodocus. They were talking about using multiple modulators and audio plug-ins in trying to replicate it, and after catching wind of it a few days later Noisia came forward and said "it's literally just a power drill in front of a mic with the trigger halfway pulled in." I can't listen to Diplodocus the same way ever again. I hear the drill now.
Sound design is awesome! I watched a video a while back, where they were making broken bone/dismemberment sounds, and they would take different vegetables, like a head of cabbage, and squish and rip them apart with their hands in front of a microphone. A lot of creativity goes into making sounds!
Chill out, what ya yellin' for? Lay back, it's all been done before. And if you could only let it be, you will see that I am the funniest YouT*ber of all time. Admit it, my dear follow*r keus
I honestly had no idea where you were going with this, until that iconic sound was made and I recognized it immediately as something commonly used in the Yo-Kai Watch franchise! I had no idea there was a full-blown instrument for that, that's really cool to learn!
Those flex-a-tones are essential for teachers. They get attention, and if they don't initially you can simply raise the pitch and volume till it hurts. That's right: the piercing sound legally inflicts physical pain on the class when yapping gets out of control. A teacher's dream!
I’d say it’s that weird instrument they use in Desert Levels. You know the one I am talking about. The instrument that sounds like it could be a guitar or percussion instrument, it sorta sounds magical with a bit of an echo to it, the smallest bit like when you pick up an item in dark souls, it’s usually the main instrument in Mario desert levels.

Before the instrument went all the way for its intended sound effect, it sounded like the sounds you'd hear in Super Hot whenever you hit/broke something.
I guess that's how they made the dancing toaster sounds for Ghostbuster 2. You can get the same sort of effect if you put a half inch of water in a pot and tap the edge to make it ring like a bell while moving the water around. It changes the pitch and you get that same wobbly sound. I always figured that's how the made sounds like that. Very interesting. I love foley art. The artists are so creative and think in out of the box ways.
Never thought of that, but you may be right Also, the sound you're describing has been made into an instrument. It's called the waterphone and it's also used for some other eerie sounds too
FLEXATONE! Thank you! I've been trying to figure out what that instrument is called for about a year now! It was in the special instruments drawer in the percussion section in the high school band room!
I knew the flexatone 12 years ago when I was in middle school, it was called for in a piece we played in band called "Revenge of the Dust Bunnies" and at the time I had put almost as many hours into San Andreas as I had the Mega Man X series. Good times
For me, I hear this a lot in a Gundam PS2 game, the memories oh god 😭 I don't remember which game it was since a sibling of mine played it, but it was basically Amuro Ray's storyline
I swear, percussion instruments are so weird but also make sense at the same time somehow. For example, the Vibraslap, which in my opinion, is one of the weirdest looking percussion instruments I’ve seen.
