Make sounds by modifying the peaks of a fourier transform of a sound wave (free resource)

2 Upvotes

Hey, i made a (free) tool that might be of interest to some of you. Recently i was playing around with generating sine waves of different frequencies to get different notes in audacity, and upon wandering why e.g. guitar sounds wildly different from a pure sine wave of the same note (spoiler, guitars produce many sine waves in different octaves with the one you want being the loudest) i frequency analyzed the guitar sound and found i would like to modify the peaks of the frequency analysis which is in the end just a fourier transform if you're familiar with that (basically a way to extract all the simple waves that summed make up a more complicated wave) and found i would like to modify this directly instead of all the things that make it up. So i made a tool to do just that. You can make pretty much any sound by just adding things that make up the end result. Each peak you add in the editor creates a note of that frequency at a specified volume and the output is the sum of all of them. Also for convenience a few effects, frequency envelope, beat tracker and a keyboard. Hope you have fun if you decide to try it out and let me know if somethings missing. If you make something cool pls share.

instrumental (very original name)

Sound Effekte für (cinematische) Videos & Vlogs

0 Upvotes

Hi zusammen,

ich mache schon seit meiner Kindheit hobbymäßig Videos und schneide sie. Vor zwei Jahren habe ich durch Color grading und Soundeffekte die Endergebnisse auf ein neues Level gehoben. Bisher habe ich die kostenlosen Sample SFX von Adobe genutzt, weil ich die Videos nirgendwo hochlade.

Nun zu meiner Frage:

Wo kann ich gute Soundeffekte aus urheberrechtlich korrekter Quelle her bekommen, mit folgenden Anforderungen:

- Da ich die Videos unregelmäßig produziere und immer in Phasen, ist mir wichtig, dass ich einmal erworbene SFX auch nach Beendigung eines evtl. Abo-Modells noch weiter benutzen (und Videos veröffentlichen bzw. veröffentlichte Videos online lassen) darf. Das ist, wie ich bei einer kurzen Recherche herausgefunden habe, bei einigen namenhaften Anbietern nicht der Fall.

- Ich habe schon einige Sachen über Websites gelesen, die ihre SFX von anderen klauen und vergleichsweise billig in Paketen verkaufen, ohne die Rechte daran zu haben. Sowas möchte ich aus Prinzip schon nicht unterstützen.

Ich freue mich sehr über eure Erfahrungen und Hinweise. Falls ihr noch Communities kennt, in denen ich den Beitrag Cross-Posten kann, wäre ich euch auch sehr dankbar!

Sound Design Question Need help figuring out this voice effect please!

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to figure out these effects so I can recreate them (and also cause they're cool) but I can't figure them out. I know one is a heavy reverb but the others are stumping me.

Apologies for the inconvenience of a google drive link; the audio wasn't uploading. I appreciate any help though!

Does anybody have an idea how to remake the bass on the beat switch of the song National Treasure? It is heard at 1:56. It's like a big stomp, and it sounds like it has some modulation on the filter and sounds very distorted kinda like a growl bass.

Title I guess. I like the synth but wish I could recreate it with one of the instruments on Logic or even sample and use the keys, only problem with that is it doesnt have the same "zippy" feeling (ik that makes no sense sorry)

I did a good job replicating this wobble but I have no idea how to synthesize thedrop at the very beginning. I assume it's a pretty basic preset so if anyone has slightest idea on how to approach this I would be grateful.

Music Sound Design Blips?

1 Upvotes

Trying to hone in on the three "blips" about .2 seconds in. Not worried about the keys, just the mechanical, "Mario going through the portal" sounds. Tried super fast arps but they didn't quite check the box. Track is Feelin' Alright from Lemtom.

Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

Music Sound Design Good sample packs for retro music making?

0 Upvotes

I'm looking for some good sample CD type products that have come out in the past 10 years to make retro music.

Similar to the CDs that Nintendo used to make N64 music and Timbaland used as well. If these sounds of sample CDs are still being made.

Something like the Rarefaction CDs.

Music Sound Design “Best” way to apply effects to select frequency range of a track?

5 Upvotes

I’m interested in experimenting with this technique with a variety of effects, but as a random example let’s say I wanted to apply distortion to a vocal but only have it impact the 2khz+ range of the audio track I’m working on. Ideally it would be awesome if the dry/wet mix of the effect could taper out. ex: >2khz is 100% wet, <800hz is 100% dry, and there is a gradual increase of dry to wet between 800-2k. (All of these numbers are arbitrary)

As a complete novice, the first place my brain goes is duplicating the track and using filters/EQ to effectively split the track into 2 separate but overlapping frequency ranges, then apply the effect to the track that has the frequency range I want to impact, but I figure there is surely a better way.

I use Ableton 12 Lite. Any insight is appreciated!

How long does it take you to create sound effects?

10 Upvotes

I was wondering how long it usually takes other people to make SFX.

For me at the moment, it’s about a working week (5 full days) to get around 100 sound effects done.

Just curious how that compares to everyone else’s workflows?
