Lord Such's Otomsiauq Outro

I have heard this "digital sounding" effect on many tracks before including some of J Dilla's tracks.

Any help is great, thanks! :D


which track?

Are you asking about the effect on the vocal or on the beat?

By cooocooo1 Tue Oct 11, 2005 6:21 pm
I suppose that's a good question, the modualtion was the most prominent effect so I assumed he was refering to that

The effect that sounds like ring mod could just be the SP on its own.
When you sample at 45 and tune down on the SP, you get some crazy grainy ringing sounds resulting from the exagerated aliasing (I assume) ........it sometimes sounds ring mod-ish.
