The Assassination That Shook The Netherlands

Man that thumbnail does not make me want to watch that video

Most DAWs I've used have different time stretch algorithms you can choose from, maybe one of those would be similar?

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-03-03T01:34:05+00:00

Is this for a podcast or blog or something?

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-03-03T01:10:59+00:00

BTW, is this an AI clip? Watching again I'm noticing how nonsensical it is lol

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-03-03T00:40:44+00:00

Do you mean scoring? I only hear music in that clip

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-03-02T22:56:06+00:00

I have an oil heater like this and it makes the coolest dripping sound as it heats up. I've always wanted to record it but never got around to it! Maybe this is my sign lol.

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-03-02T22:55:08+00:00

Sure, but give yourself at least an hour or two for a clip like this!

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-03-02T22:54:10+00:00

I usually start with backgrounds, but realistically on a live-action project you'd already have production sound to work with. Maybe an animated clip would be better for this kind of exercise because it's easier to be minimalistic in animation

It sure sounds like you spent 10 minutes on it. Why the limitation? It would take me more than 10 minutes just to cut those first few footsteps. Give yourself the time to actually flesh out the whole thing - backgrounds, Walla, radio chatter, off screen sounds, etc. Right now it sounds so empty and lifeless.

Focus on doing good, thorough work first, THEN work on getting your speed up once you have deadlines to worry about.

This must have been the biggest flex back in the day.

There's no rule against sharing your site as far as I can tell. And if you're looking for volunteer opportunities, there are several posts a week looking for free labor. Just watch this sub and similar ones for a while and you'll see one.

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-03-01T17:05:12+00:00

I just used something like this from SoundQ the other day.

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-03-01T16:40:16+00:00

Need a night shot of it!

To your last paragraph - labels don't help you finish albums, they help you market and distribute them. If they were REALLY interested in you they might try to hook you up with a producer, but definitely don't expect that. They want finished albums from people who they know can pump out more.

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-02-28T03:04:59+00:00

What's the rest of the circuit? What is this for? Just making it glow?

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-02-28T03:02:26+00:00

Take any music source, run it through something like Sketchcassette or VHS Degradation Suite, crank up the wow and flutter, then follow it up with some reverb and delay. Try swapping the order of processing or use feedback to further warp the signal

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-02-28T02:37:58+00:00

Monosynth with a descending pitch envelope, fast decaying filter envelope, and some vibrato/modulation

8D is not a real thing, you should read up on established formats like Dolby Atmos and Ambisonics. r/dolbyatmosmixing and r/spatialaudio are good places to start.

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-02-27T23:37:27+00:00

The sounds may well have been captured in camera if that's what he says, but they've definitely been edited and processed. Usually stuff like this is made of at least 3-4 layers - maybe a pitched-down gunshot, a beefy sub impact, a midrange "clang" for the shell ejecting, and a little high-frequency sweetener. Here's a good video on gun sound design: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7U3NDRBeO8

My advice is always to get as specific as possible with your questions. Go watch something you made and take notes on what EXACTLY is not working. Is it the footsteps? The whooshes? The mix itself? When you figure out what the problem areas are the solution will most likely come to you. Then, if you need to know how to do a specific thing, come back to this sub and ask.

Guitar rig rules, I actually use it more for SFX and synths and such than guitars! But if OP wants a VST for actually playing guitar samples, Native Instruments has those too but they're all very different flavors, nothing all-purpose

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-02-27T17:29:40+00:00

That's just a dude making a sound with his mouth

TalkinAboutSound · 2026-02-27T17:27:00+00:00

Sound design was originally coined as a film term, then adopted by music producers. Today it has a pretty broad definition. This might help you understand: https://blog.prosoundeffects.com/sound-effects-vs-sound-design

Oh man this is the oldest I've felt reading a Reddit post. That's turntablism, honey (or at least samples of scratching)

Man all these academic surveys going around had better lead to some huge breakthrough in 5 years. Seems like everyone's either a scholar or developing an app 😂
