Jonesy Jones Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Does anyone know of some good sound fx tutorials, or libraries for that matter? What I need is some creature/demon/alien sound fx, but not big monster roars. More subtle, like when the actor hears a creature that's behind them and then they turn around to see it. Or a subtle creature quickly moving by unseen. If you watch the recent Godzilla trailer for instance there are several low fluttery (I don't know what else to call them) sound fx that kinda sound like a growl. They're probably digital, but they're awesome. I could really use your help, but please no cheesy witch cackles or demon hisses. Thanks in advance.

Jonesy Jones Posted June 6, 2014 Author Share Posted June 6, 2014 Yah. I've been playing with that, but I have been looking for something that I wasn't able to produce. But I just discovered a nifty little trick. Keyframing the volume up and down rapidly creates a cool doppler, or growl effect. Very cool.

varicam Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 If you are into programming, Csound, Pure Data, and Super Collider are used by sound designers. You can morph your voice using a vocoder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonesy Jones Posted June 6, 2014 Author Share Posted June 6, 2014 Thanks varicam. I've thought about that too. Might very well be something I get into at one point. It's a little more work for me right now since I don't have an audio interface to work with, but the vocoder is something I have been interested in for a while.
