Obviously not exactly like Skrillex's but it was quite easy to make and its is a pretty darn powerful sound

Thats exactly what I expected.

Skrillex said he made the growls in SMANS on accident when trying to recreate a sound from noisia.

On topic, any sort of decent FM8 patch with any sort of decent ohmicide setting will get you the same sort of smans growl you're looking for as long as you EQ and apply other effects properly and ...

Any other good distortion plug-ins for basses?

Izotope Trash.

Also @ Maxxan yeah I do like Imma Try Out, I think you;re right about the collabing thing... Skrillex makes the tracks good not AR.

Whenever I try a plugin like that my bass sounds like a shitty electric guitar with all these ...

Not really about the growls but interesting nonetheless

Where is the full lecture?

Nope, feed me/noisia ghost produced him. (maybe)

I've heard that but it sounds a bit ridiculous to me. It's strange that he got a Noisia and Boys Noize collaboration straight on that release tho. How known was he prior Scary Monster release? (mau5trap signup). How many views their tracks on ...

So how did Skrillex (a guy that was making pretty meh sounding music before Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites) came up with one of the sickest sounds ever in the genre? (why talk about other growls? the rest all pretty much suck)
I mean the leap in sound production from My Name is Skrillex and Scary ...

Yeah, Skrillex is the don when it comes to growls, but these were pretty decent, usually most people just suck at it.

PS:Listening to UMF TV Live now watching Ultra Fest... these 2 tracks and a couple producers on this forum are far better than most of the shit im hearing. How can such shit get ...

Am I the only one that just didnt feel it at all?
No, me too.

It sounds fucking horrendous on my monitors & sub. The fact that the whole midrange is completely mono is off-putting from the start. The distortion is overbearing too.

Having said that it sounds okay on my crappy laptop speakers ...

Wow, thats sick as fuck. Who is that? I enjoyed both tracks, really solid.

Probably because they've moved on to other sounds.

'they' who?

Skrillex hasn't moved anywhere, it's still all about the growl (check his latest tune here:

Let's just focus on the growl sound (which is what the thread is about) and not about the ...

Why do all other growl sounds that aren't the one used in Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites suck so much compared to it? They sound dull and amateur, even the latest Skrillex tracks suck compared to the one used on that track.
I think we will never know how in hell he came up with that sound. No one ...

Nice to see a lot of drum players.

First dubstep I heard was Skream & The Widdler. Then I got into Rusko, Reso, Datsik, etc. I never really liked the mainstream shit like Scary Monsters and basscannon but a few songs I heard on AMTV Clubland were ok. Never really liked dance music either. Bores ...

it's funny how all the skrillex thread are filled with "omg how can i make this sound?"?#?!#?!" "i didn't understand please send me a picture of your settings" "can you send me your patch??"

well who am i to judge...
but honestly making your own sounds by messing around with fm synthesis is easily ...

The sound that makes Skrillex interesting (who cares about sampling old records, this has been doen to death) is the monster growl on Scary Monsters. This sound is very synthetic sounding. Certainly less resampling involving that some like to think. If the source of the sound is not good the sound ...

Far from spot on.

Now that you guys have experienced by yourself how hard it is to make this sound decent... don't you think it's a bit dodgy to think Skrillex did Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites on a laptop with some blown up speaker (so basically in mono?) connected to the headphone jack?

Anyway, for this ...

you are THE hooky who made that track right?
definitely not, i checked hookEy's posts and six months ago he posted "I never really understood the difference between grime and dubstep. Someone explain??"
:cornlol:
Post a soundcloud sample if it's as easy to replicate. :roll:
yes it is easy once ...
