Grungelizer Sound Design

Greetings good people & happy new year.

I wanted to know this technique; I once saw a video of a guy triggering a grundulizer fx plugin for kick…you know just to add that noise cherry on-top on the kick.

Can someone please help me with that.

Possibly done by using Grungelizer on an Effect Track and put a noise gate behind it. The noise gate then gets triggered by the kick through side-chaining.

What @Johnny_Moneto said plus most likely an EQ before and/or after the FX.

Thanks a lot @Johnny_Moneto. I will try it out

Oh yeah? Let me get to it and see how it sounds. Thanks @Reco29

I think Grungelizer does not need any additional EQ. It has one built-in. Vinyl crackles, tape noise, and electric hum don’t seem to need that either. But that’s just me.

Or you can use a plug-in like Snapback from Cable Guys - You can add a wide range of sounds to the transient and even pre-transient. It does exactly what you’re trying to do and more - and it’s only $49

Oh, in that case the internal EQ is just fine, of course :slight_smile:

EDIT: The EQ is actually just a Low Cut… Nonetheless, I totally forgot that this plugin had crackle and noise which might come in handy on special occasions :+1:

You can trigger all sorts of sounds on a kick or snare by using sidechain and gate. E.g. white noise on a snare or a sinus tone on a kick. Same additive principle - different technique.

I want to experiment with sort of stuff instead finding vsts, I know Cubase can do a lot
