You could also use a SFX library as a source sound for your effect instead of using a mic. Sound design is often more about what you do with a sound, than what sound you already have
Richard Devine does allot of field recording for his sound design sources.. And I dont think it gets more "transformer"-like than the man himself!
Check: http://www.sound-ideas.com/sfxmenu-scifi.html
-> these guys make one of the biggest SFX/Foley etc library's on the planet & most studios use them (Hollywood Edge & a few others too)
Very over-used IMO..But handy when you need quick sounds for source.
I own most of these and use them allot..Good samples, as long as you work the heck out of them!
Best,

if you want to make shit like that from scratch you have to combine a TON of different sounds and just have things constantly switching and as much movement as you can possibly do. (tons of automation on every sound....filters, fx, pitch bends etc)
or combine all 3 ways of doing it... smash together samples with shit you made from scratch and sounds you recorded for a total shitmix of controlled chaos (how i usually do it)
That is awesome, I have so much respect for the way you get the samples. Thats how it is don't, not just taking run of the mill FL tracks and mixing them. You are the man good sir.

watch the film n sample it as long as the sample is no longer than 3 seconds its legal
is this a legit a statement?
My lecturer sued someone for £mill+ over this, and he can't stress enough that any sampling without permission is illegal. It's just that he's never heard of someone being taken to court over a sampled kick drum or a second long transformer sound. Doesn't mean they wouldn't if they found out where it came from though.
The boundaries are really blurred on this. The latest I heard was two notes or three seconds of non musical sampling.

I respect that when musicians reply about questions on their music... go excision!!
There has to be a way to make this on a synthesizer though! Probably FM would do it... but how??

Anybody recommend a good portable recording mic??? They look expensive and I'm not looking to spend $2000 on one, so if anybody knows of a good one that's reasonbly priced (under $1000) please let me know.
as long as the sample is no longer than 3 seconds its legal
