    Not sure how known about this is but the "chair drag" sample is actually a microphone placed on the inside of an ammo box lid (aphex mentioned this in his soundcloud comments awhile back)

      Yep - I like the older gear since it gives you a bit of an insight into how it might have been done back in the early 90s, but I have to admit using a better sequencer definitely helps with more complex stuff!!!

      to be honest it depends on if someone is actually designing the sound or using samples and loops. i feel like the only difference i between making sounds from scratch on hardware and in a DAW is lack of analog effects and a huge difference in budget

    • @AutPen38
      @AutPen38 Рік тому +7

      Apparently he used a wireless microphone inside the rusty ammo can, so it was possibly the sound of the lid being taken off. It has natural reverb (from inside the tin) that makes it sound like it was recorded in a tunnel or corridor. The "bubbly" speech was probably RDJ himself mumbling into the same microphone rather than sampling something off the telly (like he did with other tracks).

    I've not touched them 'really' for years now - far too busy with work. But this video, the tweaking, the fun of finding out how a sound is made - the general 'farting around' and experimenting.... man, I escaped reality and had a blast. Really wish I could dive into this hobby again.

      if you don't start using that gear again and keep up excuses not to, you have to give it away to somebody who deserves it.
      somebody who hasn't the luxury of stashing gear. so if you don't want to loose a bunch of gear use it.
      f work. i mean once again if you have the luxury of stashing gear, you must have enough money, so work less.

      but also the sample repitching you're doing at around 4:10 sounds like it could be straight out of Incunabula, and I mean that in the best way

      @@then_comes_dudley 😂😂I do love how the R8 gets really gnarly sounding a lower pitches. I have an Analog Rytm that can pitch shift, but it's just too clean!! The first R8/Nord Jam video I did for this channel was the result of caning through one of the early AE live sets...

      @@bleepsandboops i know what you mean about the fun of older stuff getting really grungy when pitching down. the rhythm half of my setup is a digitakt + zoom st-224, and as happy as i am that elektron finally added downsampling to the digitakt, it's just not as fun for me as resampling stuff into the 224 & pitching it down. i think i read a line somewhere about "today's technical limitations are tomorrow's aesthetic choices"
      also i went back & watched that other video, and you nailed the warp tapes sound! i hope these experiments lead to an album; would love to see where you go with it

      @@atarirob I'd try 'Theme' if I had the drum breaks.. I'm not convinced he played the guitar sample despite the interviews (it shifts with the detuned cymbal behind it which makes me think they're linked...), but then I can't find the break for that either! Borgnine might happen though - depends how long Behringer take to release the MS-1 mk2!!

      @@bleepsandboops I had to listen back - you could be right! They sound linked for sure because every successive chord change has a different drum hit behind it, but the guitar keeps cutting off before the cymbal trail finishes, which would only be possible if they were 2 seperate samples.
      The MS-1 with the sequencer would be cool, but you could use the Nord for Ernest Borgnine!! There's like 10 videos already on UA-cam of people recreating it on their 101's, it would be sick to see it done on the Nord, sequenced from the R8 or something. Awesome content btw!!

    To do the chair effect you need a certain kind of wood chair to be scrubbed in a certain kind of wooden or porcelain floor, with a certain weight above (siting) the chair my friend!
