      Have you ever played around with the “Argent Compressor”? It’s basically an OTT/Upward Compressor hybrid that really DOOM’s up anything you throw in it.

    well, you missed the step where he said that the sample of chainsaw he took was the chainsaw from the original DOOM game, and not just a random chainsaw sample. that said, the sample you used with EQing did lend a close enough sound to the original. good rendition.

    You almost got it but he did specify that he used the sample from the chainsaw sound effect from the original 1993 doom. (so it was a mix of the idle and the 'fire' sound of the chainsaw) So you probably would've got better results with that since It's a stock sound effect.

    @moonbyul873 10 месяцев назад +2

    Sounds like if you fiddled with it a bit more, you could get it closer, but it's a cool sound nonetheless. I actually forgot one of the other more important things he said during his presentation and that was that he used the chainsaw sounds from the original Doom 1 and 2 games as the chainsaw, so he didn't even use a particularly good-sounding chainsaw sound for the official track. I'm curious to see what results you could come up with using that particular sound.

    • @Tonepusher
      @Tonepusher  10 месяцев назад +2

      Thanks! Yes you're right I think he used the old game sound. But seeing how he works he probably processed the shit out of that sound before even sending it through Morph! So I figured I would use a modern chainsaw sound hehe ....next in line, the lawnmower haha

I'm very much cave man brained when it comes to dialing in tone, so I aim for the less is more approach, but it's impossible to get the sound you got in this video and the sound he just gets in general with a more simple approach.

There IS some people that will put 32 plugins and end up with insane tones and sounds, but it's not for everybody. Mick is certainly alone in his world. Sometimes it sounds even better to come back to the root...simple stuff. I mean most of the time, artists that creates iconic sounds are the ones that had the less gear!
