help: that rising fx sound. [total departure esque]

[ferdy]

thanks for everyone who've broken down the sound for me. some great techniques you guys have shared. going to try them all.

and no worries about the criticism, i'm not looking to make that exact exact sound, just wanted to learn about to how to go about it. and i thought i'd be more specific with what type of rising fx i was trying to achieve thus i posted 'total departure' in the subject to give everyone a better idea.

thanks again for all the help!

cheers!

I did the rising tone in 'UP' using Csound, and then layered the output over itself several times.

The rising tones in 'Total Departure' were created using a plugin that makes Shepard tones.

CSound lol thats like the grandaddy of all music languages

[faso]

you easily get some continuously rising effects using the corkscrew plugin included in the Anarchy Effects pack...

you can use a synth with a pitch envelope if you just want the pitch to increase/decrease over time.

Pitch bend..Pitch enveloppe. Or a slow LFO on the pitch.
